Hello All,
I'm looking for some "for dummies" information about using variables.
I tried looking for it in the wiki, but only found this "Internals"
page that's a bit too advantaged to me:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Inside_ConTeXt#Using_variables
I'm obviously missing something important, so I'd love to see a few
more examples of variables and variable input files...
\setvariables
[whatever]
[name:first={product a},
price:first={123,45},
name:second={product b},
price:second={0.67}]
\starttext
You can order \getvariable {whatever} {name:first} but only if you're
willing
to pay the price of \getvariable {whatever} {price:first} Euros. But why not
go for the much cheaper \getvariable {whatever} {name:second} that only
costs
you \getvariable {whatever} {price:second} Euros!
\stoptext
Something like that?
