Great, thanks, I'll wikify. Is that lmtx-only or will it work in mkiv? Denis ________________________________________ Von: Hans Hagen <j.ha...@xs4all.nl> Gesendet: Montag, 13.

Any hints? You switch directions when we're still in vertical mode, so you need: \startblockquote \dontleavehmode\righttoleft\ignorespaces \input knuth \stopblockquote I can add this: \permanent\protected\def\rtltext {\groupedcommand{\dontleavehmode\righttoleft\ignorespaces}\removeunwantedspaces} \permanent\protected\def\ltrtext {\groupedcommand{\dontleavehmode\lefttoright\ignorespaces}\removeunwantedspaces} but only when you wikify it \startblockquote \rtltext{\input{knuth}} \stopblockquote ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl ----------------------------------------------------------------- ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
