I remember paging through the manual, it’s included in the distribution.

Re: [NTG-context] date calculated with currentdate plus n days
On top of that I recommend to use context.date to get the correct formatting according to the current language options: \starttext \def\duedate{\ctxlua{ local t = os.date('*t', os.time()+ 10 * 24 * 3600) context.date{ d = t.day, m = t.month, y = t.year } }} \duedate \stoptext On 14/08/18 05:37, Jan U.

Hi Jan-Ulrich, if you don’t mind using Lua, here you have it: \starttext \def\duedate{\cldcontext{os.date('\letterpercent d/\letterpercent m/\letterpercent Y', os.time()+ 10 * 24 * 3600)}} \duedate \stoptext Just in case it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
