I have found that with too large a text, linenumbering crashes with this
error:
! Dimension too large.
\doreshapebox #1#2#3#4->\ifdim \ht \oldshapebox
=\zeropoint \setbox
\newshap...
\stopregelnummeren ...ance \linestepper \plusone }
\global \advance
\linenumb...
l.10 \stoplinenumbering
I reduced it to a test case:
* * *
\starttext
\startlinenumbering
% this is ok
\dorecurse{1131}{Now is the time.\par}
% this crashes
\dorecurse{1132}{Now is the time.\par}
\stoplinenumbering
\stoptext
* * *
If I add "\setupinterlinespace[line=4ex]" it crashes before
linecount=1131, but I did not experiment to find the maximum possible
value for that case.
Do I need to expand some resource?
