Remaining, unrelated question:
In paragraph numbering, "method" can be page/first/next/file – I can’t
see a difference.
Are you talking about linenumbering because \setupparagraphnumbering has
no method option?
Oops, then it’s no wonder that I can’t see a difference. 🤦 Sorry!
But yes, I was looking at the options of linenumbering. It’s a pity that
the syntax of these seemingly related functions differs so much.
%%%% begin example
\setuppapersize[A5,landscape]
\startluacode
local methods = lpeg.split(lpeg.patterns.spacer, "file first next page")
for s = 1, #methods do
local method = methods[s]
context.subject(method)
context.startlinenumbering{method=method}
for i = 1, 3 do
context.samplefile("lorem")
end
context.stoplinenumbering()
context.page()
end
\stopluacode
%%%% end example
Ok, "page" restarts the numbering on every page.
"next" leaves out the first number – when does that make sense?
I see no difference between "file" and "first" (regular numbering).
