Re: [NTG-context] CSV scanners built in ConTeXt - feature or bug?
Hans and Alan, Thanks for the reply. Now it works properly. I would like to ask if you're planning to fix file util-prs.lua in a future release of standalone ConTeXt. As for me, I'd rather vote for as the default option other option, ie which does not stop on a blank line ie. not how it's setup now (ie personally I'd rather vote strict=true would mean process all lines of CSV file and strict=false mean stop processing on blank line), but I will take into account whatever alternative and consequently I would take into account this options for my own library. Alan writes about this behavior as like metapost feature. Personally, I think that the CSV file is basically a plain text file and a blank line in it has its place. The end of the text file is usually marked by eof character, so I guess there's no reason to terminate processing before the file really ends.

Which is the right way to get the code above working?
\getfiguredimensions[whatever.pdf] \noffigurepages
Many thanks for your reply, Hans.
It works like charm.
Now I can generate my booklets fully automatic (for the people :-)).
Many thanks again for your help,

[NTG-context] textbackground
Hello,
For a multilingual document, alternating one language or another, not
necessarily a bilingual, translated text, I thought about using
textbackground to set-off paragraphs. This technique could also apply
to a single language text having multiple levels of information,
perhaps statements followed by discussion, etc.
A problem appears with respect to footnotes that I do not know how to
handle. If the backgrounded text goes across pages placing footnotes,
then the footnote also gets the background. This is incorrect, perhaps
a bug.
Second problem, if a footnote of a backgrounded text gets placed on a
following page, then it may not get a background. (It is not clear to me
whether it would be correct for footnotes to get the background or
not.) Of course, a solution to this secondary problem might be
before={\startlocalfootnotes},
after={\placelocalfootnotes\stoplocalfootnotes},
although such a solution would postpone backgrounded footnotes to the
end of the backgrounded text.
