Re: [NTG-context] Make footnote/endnote number not superscript?

Thank-you all - the textcommand= was the necessary magic incantation. I will certainly use the linknote suggestion, not least because I'll still need regular footnotes as well. And if I can pluck up courage to "move" the \setupnote Wiki page over to the new style (I don't know how to do an

[NTG-context] Make footnote/endnote number not superscript?

I'm editing a book that will be printed, however the authors have included URLs which will no doubt suffer from "bit rot" in no time at all. I think it will make the main text cleaner if I use endnotes rather than include the URL in-line in the text or as a (distracting) footnote. So when the

[NTG-context] \setupheadertexts not working when text contains \subject

I've found an unexpected interaction between \setupheadertexts and the \subject command, and I'm hoping that someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong. Version: current version: 2022.01.10 08:36 I'm trying to set a book whereby - chapter title pages have no headers - left hand (even) pages have

[NTG-context] TeXWorks and synctex

I'm having trouble getting the new synctex to work on a Mac. I've completely re-installed MacTeX and TeXWorks and synctex works fine for LaTeX documents. But for ConTeXt no combination of magic lines etc will work for me. The symptoms are... nothing - no errors but no synching, either way. Q1:
