Have you tried formatting it this way: \startsection [title={my fancy section}]
bla \stopsection Breaking before closing or after opening the square braces has always given trouble to me.

Con voz o sin voz, la gente siempre podrá entregarse a la voluntad de sus líderes. Es fácil. Lo único que hay que hacer es decirles que están siendo atacados, y denunciar a los pacifistas por su falta de patriotismo y exponer el país al peligro. Funciona igual en todos los países." ---Hermann Goering, en los juicios de Nuremberg. 2013/7/16 <ntg-context-requ...@ntg.nl>: > Send ntg-context mailing list submissions to > ntg-context@ntg.nl > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > ntg-context-requ...@ntg.nl > > You can reach the person managing the list at > ntg-context-ow...@ntg.nl > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of ntg-context digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
