Sorry, but I am missing your point here.
Does your answer imply that I cannot work with a [][]-parameterlist?
That would be problematic because I am using your getparameters-thing
extensively.
Or do you mean something else that will stop the parameter gathering
at the & ?

Hi Taco,
thanks for the new version! I didn't have time to play with your
latest beta, but the new release appears to have a problem: numbered
references don't seem to work! I found an older post to the list by
Marten and I can confirm that it doesn't work. Here's a minimal test
file:
%%%
\usemodule[bib]
\setuppublications[refcommand=num,
numbering=yes
]
\startpublication[k=austinhow,t=book,
a={{Austin}},y=1975a,
n=12,s=Aus75a]
\author[]{John~Langshaw}[J.~L.]{}{Austin}
\pubyear{1975\maybeyear{a}}
\title{How To Do Things with Words}
\city{Cambridge, MA}
\pubname{Harvard University Press}
\edition{2}
\stoppublication
\starttext
As can be seen in \cite[austinhow].
\page
\placepublications
\stoptext
%%%
If I change refcommand to author or other values, it works; with num
I get
publications: warning: cite argument austinhow unknown on 108
references : unknown reference [][0]
in my log file. Sorry, I don't know when this problem cropped up, but
I know that this used to work...

Aha! That explains a lot. Now I know how to define a variant with
old-style figures:
\starttypescript[serif][bembo][uc]
\definefontsynonym[BemboRegular]
["Bembo Std:mapping=tex-text"]
[encoding=uc]
...
\stoptypescript
%
\starttypescript[serif][bembo-osf][uc]
\definefontsynonym[BemboRegular]
["Bembo Std:mapping=tex-text;+onum"]
[encoding=uc]
...
\stoptypescript
%
\starttypescript[serif][bembo,bembo-osf][name]
\definefontsynonym[Serif][BemboRegular]
...
\stoptypescript
%
\starttypescript[bembo][uc]
\definetypeface[bembo]
[rm][serif][bembo][default][encoding=uc]
\definetypeface[bembo-osf]
[rm][serif][bembo-osf][default][encoding=uc]
\stoptypescript
I figured out bold italic, too ("Bembo Std-Bold Italic", not "Bembo
Std-BoldItalic", d'oh!) and all is golden. I suppose I should try to
fix the typescript so it can be used with other encodings, but I'll
leave that for another day. For now, I'm just thrilled to be able to
use my brand new shiny font. ConTeXt + XeTeX + Adobe Bembo Std +
helpful netizens = bliss.
Paul.

[NTG-context] New bib module release (2006.07.13)
Hi all,
After a fairly long list of betas, I have just uploaded a new
release of the bibliographic module to contextgarden.net
This release fixes three bugs that were still in beta 5:
* removed two incorrect spaces from bibl-num.tex
* reset the interaction "style" within \type{\cite}, so that
font switches from \type{\setupcite} stay in effect
* a guard is added against loading bbl files multiple times
It should be included automatically in the next context release.
Happy TeXing,
Taco

Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt + XeTeX + Adobe Bembo Std = ???
Hi Paul.
You almost got it. You slightly misunderstood the use of the
definetypface line...

Okay, you just need to take the "definetypeface" line out of the above
definition. We'll rewrite it and re-place it below.
>\starttypescript[serif][bembo][name]
> \definefontsynonym[Serif] [BemboRegular]

>\stoptypescript
These lines look pretty good (although I suspect you could be defining
Bold Italic as well).
You want a third typescript that creates the typeface definition. It's
this thing that calls the other two:
\starttypescript[bembo][uc]
\definetypeface [bembo] [rm] [serif] [bembo] [default] [encoding=uc]
\stoptypescript

You're just missing some of the magic in the definetypeface line. To
show the arbitrariness of some of the names, you can change the last
definition and how you call it:
\starttypescript[OpenTypeBembo]
\definetypeface [BooBoo] [rm] [serif] [bembo] [default] [encoding=uc]
\stoptypescript
\usetypescriptfile[type-bembo]
\usetypescript[OpenTypeBembo]
\setupbodyfont[BooBoo,11pt]
And when you call the "BooBoo" typeface, it knows that definition and
calls the following definitions when using the \rm family:
\starttypescript[serif][bembo] [uc]
\starttypescript[serif][bembo] [name]
\starttypescript[serif][default][size]
(and some other, special definitions that 98% of the time you don't need
to worry about.)
Does that work?

Hmm. Clever approach, but that puts a strong bias on loading fonts by
the OpenType method, only. That assumption isn't valid with XeTeX on Mac
(fast heading to being a minority ;) -- there's the ATSUI font loading
syntax as well, which looks very different.
That said, now that I'm kind of back (hi), type-xtx and basically all
the XeTeX stuff needs a radical re-think, as I had used the \ifXeTeX
switch as a sign we were on a specific platform, not running a specific TeX.
