Hi all,
is it possible to extend the delimited texts implementation in such a way
that the environment would accept optional arguments. What I have in mind is
something like this:
\setupdelimitedtext
[quotation]
[% author=Default Author,
right=”\wordright{\delimitedtextparameter{author}}]
\starttext \showframe
\startquotation% [author=Some Author]
\dorecurse{50}{text }
\stopquotation
\startquotation% [author=Another Author]
\dorecurse{50}{text }
\stopquotation
\stoptext
\usemodule[annotation]
\setupdelimitedtext
[blockquote]
[spacebefore=line]
\define[2]\AnnotationCommand
{\startblockquote
“#2”\wordright{\annotationparameter{subtitle}}%
\stopblockquote}
\setupannotation
[ display=no,
alternative=command,
command=\AnnotationCommand]
\starttext
Thus, I came to the conclusion that the designer of a new
system must not only be the implementer and first
large-scale user; the designer should also write the first
user manual.
The separation of any of these four components would have
hurt \TeX\ significantly. If I had not participated fully in
all these activities, literally hundreds of improvements
would never have been made, because I would never have
thought of them or perceived why they were important.
But a system cannot be successful if it is too strongly
influenced by a single person. Once the initial design is
complete and fairly robust, the real test begins as people
with many different viewpoints undertake their own
experiments.

The Earth, as a habitat for animal life, is in old age and
has a fatal illness. Several, in fact. It would be happening
whether humans had ever evolved or not. But our presence is
like the effect of an old-age patient who smokes many packs
of cigarettes per day – and we humans are the cigarettes.

marvelous and everyday capacity to select, edit,

harmonize, synthesize, focus, organize, condense,
reduce, boil down, choose, categorize, catalog, classify,
list, abstract, scan, look into, idealize, isolate,
discriminate, distinguish, screen, pigeonhole, pick over,
sort, integrate, blend, inspect, filter, lump, skip,
smooth, chunk, average, approximate, cluster, aggregate,
outline, summarize, itemize, review, dip into,
flip through, browse, glance into, leaf through, skim,
refine, enumerate, glean, synopsize, winnow the wheat
from the chaff and separate the sheep from the goats.
