[NTG-context] underbar not colored
I wonder. Shouldn't the underbar show up colored too?
Hans van der Meer
Example:
\starttext
\underbar{color this}:
\startcolor[red]\underbar{but the underbar isn't!}\stopcolor
\stoptext
underbar.pdf

Yes, but isn't \startsection the recommended method for the future and
needed for XML output?
XML documents should form a tree, so a structure like
\startA % A
\startB % B
\stopA % /A
\stopB % /B
won't translate to XML.
Grouping in TeX follows the same restrictions, and \start... and \stop...
behave like \begingroup and \endgroup. The \stop... is supposed to restore the
state before the corresponding \start... (at least I assume so -- \endgroup
works that way). One cannot stop A in the middle of B and return to the state
before \startA without also stopping B. So one should put \stopB before
\stopA, not after it.
Have you considered structuring your example like this?:
\starttext
\startsection[title=Tufte]
\startcolumns[n=2]
\input tufte
\stopcolumns
\stopsection
\startsection[title=Tufte and Knuth]
\startcolumns[n=2]
\switchtobodyfont[big] % Note that the font size is switched back after
\stopcolumns
\input tufte
\stopcolumns
\input knuth
\startcolumns[n=2]
\input tufte
\stopcolumns
\stopsection
\stoptext
XML seems a nice way for machines to deal with data. But it's not a very human
way to speak. I mean, if I write \section{One}...\section{Two} isn't it
obvious that section One ends when section Two begins? Why should I have to
write \endsection, when the machine can do the bookkeeping for me? The
start/stop mechanism is nice as an option, if you plan to produce an XML
document from ConTeXt. However the XML translator could implement 'if not
first section then /sectionsection else section' and add if
in_a_section then /section' when \stoptext is reached.

XML seems a nice way for machines to deal with data. But it's not a very

isn't it obvious that section One ends when section Two begins? Why should
I have to write \endsection, when the machine can do the bookkeeping for
me? The start/stop mechanism is nice as an option, if you plan to produce
an XML document from ConTeXt. However the XML translator could implement
'if not first section then /sectionsection else section' and add
if in_a_section then /section' when \stoptext is reached.
Hm, consider this
\section{One} \input knuth
Text
\section{Two} \input knuth
and
\startsection{One} \input knuth
\stopsection
Text
\startsection{Two} \input knuth
\stopsection
In the last one it's clear that Text is not in the section One or in the
section Two: In the first one, Text is in section One --- but how can I
put Text so that is not in section One and not in section Two ?
Most of the time section One ends where section Two begins, but it's
not true that *always* section One ends where section Two begins : infact
the last one is a legal example.
