In principle, it should work fine for european languages. Lot of the trickery with numbers and number formats is present because ConTeXt also supports other languages like chinese and arabic. @@longsectionnumber is used a lot by the sectioning macros, and I do not completely understand what is happening here. My solution was based on trial and error and figuring out what works. Moreover, it changes a core feature of ConTeXt. I am associating separators with sectioning levels rather than with heads. Right now, in principle, you can have different separators for different heads at the same level. For example \setuphead[remark][section=section-4,separator=.] \setuphead[note][section=section-4,separator=-] With this change, this will no longer work. So, the macro is not backward compatible, and thus can break existing code. If you have only one head at each sectioning level, and do not plan to use Chinese or Arabic, it should work fine. Atleast for my simple, 5 page document, it works correctly :-) Aditya _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
