[NTG-context] quotations

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

Since quotations keep coming up on this list, and since i had a couple of new cd's to help me through the process of cooking up macros, i made an definable quotation macros, or more precise, something:

\definedelimitedtext
[quotation]
[left={\symbol[leftquotation]},
right={\symbol[rightquotation]},
leftmargin=standard]

\definedelimitedtext
[quote][quotation]

\setupdelimitedtext
[quotation]
[location=text,
left={\symbol[leftquote]},
right={\symbol[rightquote]}]

and for Mr. BigFoot:

\definedelimitedtext
[speech][quotation]

\setupdelimitedtext
[\v!spraak]
[repeat=yes,
left={\symbol[leftspeech]},
middle={\symbol[middlespeech]},
right={\symbol[rightspeech]}]

Now, how do we call an tight quotation that those heavy quoting users want?

\definedelimitedtext
[xquotation][quotation]

\setupdelimitedtext
[xquotation]
[indentnext=no,
spacebefore=nowhite]

(there are a couple of more switches)

this mechanism will be available in the next beta, but the re-definitions not yet (first i want to make sure that it worsk ok)

one can also use this feature for things like [whatever you want to be delimited]

I'll look into the epigraph (module) later (never needed them so far)
