Dear ConTeXt folks,
looking into typesetting URLs I find typesetting URLs quite cumbersome.
Maybe I have not used that feature that often so I am not seeing the
advantage to first define a URL somewhere and give it a name
\useURL[aurl] [http://xkcd.com/149/] [] [I prefer hot
dogs.]
and then later use it.
\url[aurl]
The proposed macros(?) in the section »Tipps and Tricks« [2]
\def\href#1#2{\useURL[#2][{#2}][][{#1}]\goto{\url[#2]}[url(#1)]}
\def\ahref#1{\color[linkcolor]{\ttx \href{#1}{<#1>}}}
\def\fullahref#1{\color[linkcolor]{\ttx \href{#1}{http://#1}}}
\def\mailto#1{\useURL[#1][mailto:#1][][#1]\from[{#1}]}
\def\MailTo#1#2{\useURL[#1][mailto:#1][][#2]\from[{#1}]}
seem quite useful. Could they be added to the ConTeXt core(?)?
Thanks,
Paul
