First you have to select the Annotations tab on the left pane, go to the

Evince has a more effective approach: double-clicking on the icon opens
the note (afaIk, this is similar to Acrobat).
Right you are, it works with your method, thanks!
I think the students have Evince so perhaps it's the best solution in

there are some provisions for spaces in text but for verbatim it is a
bit more tricky
\setuptyping[space=on]
you now see visual spaces show up that can be copied
now, say that we add real spaces, which you can do after and this (in
cont-new.mkxl):
\unprotect
\setvalue{\??typingspace\v!character}{\chardef\obeyedspace32 }
\protect
and then:
\setuptyping[space=character]
in sumatra pdf:
default : spaces are copied as spaces (so three become three
on: visual spaces for every one
character : funny newlines when more than two spaces
Cheats that add some kerning before and after confuse viewers even more.
so: this is all very viewer dependent! (The suggested comment method is
more reliable.)

That's actually something I had never thought of, using PDF comments,
thanks!.
It's a really nice approach, though weirdly it doesn't work on Okular
(Linux+KDE)
for me, even though attachments worked fine. I'll try and see why that
is.
What I had in mind was rather the following:
\starttext
\starttyping[space=on]
def foo(x):
y = bar(x)
if y:
return x
return y
foo(1)
\stoptyping
\stoptext
but with ordinary char32 spaces rather than \textcontrolspace
characters.

Does this help?
\defineparagraphs[Two][n=2]

\Two
The role of the Committee\endnote{See a dictionary if you want to know what a

Some more text.

Hi André,
I wonder whether I’m getting your point with the following sample:
\showframe
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\starttext
\startbuffer[abc]
def foo(x):
if x == 0:
bar()
else:
baz(x)
foo(x - 1)
\stopbuffer
\comment[location=leftmargin,
space=yes,
buffer=abc,
title={Python code}]
{}\typebuffer[abc]
\stoptext
This might solve what you need. At least, this is the approach that I
use to provide text that can be directly copied.
I’m on Linux and last time I tested on Windows there were extra lines in
the comments.
Just in case it might help,
Pablo
