Many thanks for your reply, Henri.
Where are those context.* Lua commands documented?
I want to generate an xtable using Lua code, but I don’t know where to read.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

On top of that I recommend to use context.date to get the correct
formatting according to the current language options:
\starttext
\def\duedate{\ctxlua{
local t = os.date('*t', os.time()+ 10 * 24 * 3600)
context.date{ d = t.day, m = t.month, y = t.year }

Re: [NTG-context] \definetextbackground does not fill tables within
Floating objects (\placetable, \placefigure, ... and footnotes, etc.) do not
inherit the text background, for indeed, imagine that it floats to another
location.
Here, you use location=force, so one might expect it to use the text
background... In fact, side floats, location=left and location=right, do get
the text background color, so there is a *kludge* possible there:
\startplacetable [location=right]
...
\stopplacetable
\flushsidefloats
...
(incomplete example)
Alan
P.S. Hans: maybe location=force ought to work similarly with respect to text
backgrounds as location=left or location=right.

Hi Rik,

Fair question.
I have a document with many (400+) block quotations. Each consists of
a text extract, which may be prose or poetry, and additional optional
components (alternate versions or transliterations, translations,
attribution). The optional components are distinguished
typographically – enlarged square brackets around alternate versions,
enlarged parentheses around translations, leading en-dash and hanging
indent for attributions. Each component is in a buffer. The structure
looks like:
\startBlockQuotation[label=abc,authors={...},precis={short
extract},translators={...},tprecis={{short extract},{short
extract}}...]
\startExtract[language=agr,align=yes,font=abc,tolerance=...,...]
text of extract
\stopExtract
\startTransliteration[language=en,align=yes,font=abc,...]
text of transliteration
\stopTransliteration
\startTranslation[...]
text of translation
\stopTranslation
\startAttribution[tolerance=,...]
attribution of quotation
\stopAttribution
\stopBlockQuotation
and the code to handle it generates author index entries, a quotation
precis index, and so on from the attributes of the envelope, and
typesets each component based on the provided settings or defaults,
placing the appropriate decorations around those components that call
for them. The components are nestable, so one extract may contain
another, and components can be used separately without the envelope
(\startBlockQuotation or \startEpigraph) as well.
(I have written it this way to ease the move to an XML-based format
for storing the quotations. I realize I am combining presentation
elements, like label, tolerance, and precis, and content elements,
like language, and some that may be either, like align and font, in
the attributes, but will deal with that later.)
I prefer to leave blank lines around blocks of text and around macro
commands, so:

optional arguments are provided, I run into the problem I have described.
Try to avoid blank lines at the begin/end of environments.
I realize that I can simply not include the blank line after
\startAttribution. I would prefer, however, to see consistent parallel
structures without having to distinguish them at the time it is
written. Perhaps I am being too picky, but that is what I am attempting.
At this point, the \setupparagraphintro hack handles my needs, so I
will proceed with that.

Hans,
That works for the over-simplified case here, but fails in practice.
For a \startnarrower[left] paragraph, the mark is still in the main
margin, not the 'margin' of the narrowed paragraph. Also, the
placement of the text in the margin is wrong and not easily controlled
as with \llap and \rlap. The code started out more like:
\define\Mark{\color[middlegray]{\hskip.6cm\itb¿\ }}
\setwidthof{\Mark}\to\MarkWidth
...
\starttexdefinition stopBufTest
\startluacode
buffers.prepend("TestBuffer","\\dontleavehmode\\llap{\\Mark}")
\stopluacode
\setupnarrower[left=\MarkWidth]
\startnarrower[left,right]
\startparagraph
\inlinebuffer[TestBuffer]
\stopparagraph
\stopnarrower
\egroup
\stoptexdefinition
So I am still looking for a way to do this. Meanwhile I am trying to
understand Aditya's examples.
Turns out another answer was hidden in Hans's reply. The following seems
to meet my needs, but it may complicate other use of
\setupparagraphintro (which I don't recall seeing before), so it may not
be a generic solution.
An empty string works fine instead of the llaped marking shown here.
This is a less dangerous hack than redefining \par, but still may fail
in more complex documents when \setupparagraphintro is used elsewhere.
\starttexdefinition stopBufTest
\startnarrower[left,right]
\startparagraph
\setupparagraphintro[first][\llap{\Mark}]
\inlinebuffer[TestBuffer] \ (first: \First, arg: \Arg)
\stopparagraph
\stopnarrower
\egroup
\stoptexdefinition
Thank you, Hans.
(For a non-hack generic solution that does not interfere with other use
of \setupparagraphintro, surely there must be an easy way to apply
string.strip to the buffer.)

Re: [NTG-context] How can I remove a blank leading line from a buffer
Rik Kabel schrieb am 13.08.18 um 16:28:
Hans,
That works for the over-simplified case here, but fails in practice.
For a \startnarrower[left] paragraph, the mark is still in the main
margin, not the 'margin' of the narrowed paragraph. Also, the
placement of the text in the margin is wrong and not easily controlled
as with \llap and \rlap. The code started out more like:
\define\Mark{\color[middlegray]{\hskip.6cm\itb¿\ }}
\setwidthof{\Mark}\to\MarkWidth
...
\starttexdefinition stopBufTest
\startluacode
buffers.prepend("TestBuffer","\\dontleavehmode\\llap{\\Mark}")
\stopluacode
\setupnarrower[left=\MarkWidth]
\startnarrower[left,right]
\startparagraph
\inlinebuffer[TestBuffer]
\stopparagraph
\stopnarrower
\egroup
\stoptexdefinition
Hi Rik,
what do you want to achieve and why do you need a buffer for it?

Hi Jan-Ulrich,
if you don’t mind using Lua, here you have it:
\starttext
\def\duedate{\cldcontext{os.date('\letterpercent d/\letterpercent
m/\letterpercent Y', os.time()+ 10 * 24 * 3600)}}
\duedate
\stoptext
Just in case it helps,
Pablo

I wasn’t able to compile your source, but this works fine:
\starttext
\dorecurse{30}{a\footnote{Zapf.} }
\startlocalfootnotes[n=0,conversion=characters,location=none]
\bTABLE

\stoplocalfootnotes
\dorecurse{30}{e\footnote{Other.} }
\footnote[uvu-avu]{These two suffixes […]}
\dorecurse{30}{b\footnote{Knuth.} }
…

\stoptext

Without the source, all I can say is that it shouldn’t interfere.
A simple way to check it would be to comment out the fragment with the
local footnotes, compile and see what happens with the referenced number.

Sort of dangerous ... redefining such core commands or primitives can
have side effects as one never knows what explicit \par's are issued.
