Hi Rik,
As a matter of fact the example given by Wolfgang works despite mkiv
complaining about
\analyzecurrentreference
being unknown… Whent the typesetting stops because of this command, saying «
run » or rather « r » continues the typesetting.
I didn’t send the example module of Marco Patzer since it doesn’t seem to work
anymore with recent versions of mkiv.
Maybe Marco has a solution for his module?
Best regards: OK
