[NTG-context] suitable macros for Pandoc custom styles for paragraphs, spans and tables
Hello list, I started a topic in Pandoc discussions (see https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/discussions/10208) about custom styles in pandoc tables. This is the framework: - in Pandoc, some textual elements have a "custom-style" attribute, whose value becomes the name of a paragraph or character style in DOCX, ICML or ODT when exported to those formats - e.g. when you have a Span with custom-style="myStyle" around some inline text, you'll get a character style "myStyle" in those formats - for paragraphs, it's a bit different: since they have no attributes in Pandoc, you set the "custom-style" attribute of a surrounding Div element, then all the paragraphs inside it will get that custom paragraph style in DOCX, ICML or ODT - for DOCX output you may set a "custom-style" attribute also in tables Why not using that information about custom styles for ConTeXt output too? I started from the last ones (tables), suggesting that a Table element with a "custom-style" attribute set to "myStyle" could be output in ConTeXt as: \startxtable[myStyle] (Currently, tables converted to ConTeXt by Pandoc start only with a "\startxtable" line) That's doable, because ConTeXt does not terminate with an error, when it encounters a \startxtable[myStyle] not preceded by a \definextable[myStyle]. Then JGM, Pandoc's main author, replied that it would be weird having custom styles for tables and not for spans or paragraphs in ConTeXt output. Good point. In ConTeXt, there are many ways to specify what in Word and LibreOffice are "character" and "paragraph" styles. For example, \definehighlight is suitable for character styles. Badumont, in the pandoc discussion, suggested \definestartstop; good, though you should be careful not to specify a custom style with the same name of an existing environment (e.g. "narrower"); maybe a prefix like "CS" could be a workaround, so that "myStyle" becomes "CSmyStyle", and also "narrower" becomes a less dangerous "CSnarrower". Also, in this case, Pandoc should prepend a \definestartstop[CSmyStyle] before \startCSmyStyle, otherwise ConTeXt would terminate with an error (I think this is doable in Pandoc code, anyways). (BTW, the wiki says \definestartstop is "used to define block level commands": does it mean it can't be suitable for spans of inline text in a paragraph?) Any ideas to specify paragraph and character styles?

[NTG-context] Breakable tcolorbox in ConTeXt
Hi,
I am trying to reproduce the behaviour of the tcolorbox LaTeX package, more
specifically breakable boxes (as illustrated here:
https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/676607/123770). It works nicely out of the
box (pun intended) using `\definetextbackground` and drawing the frame with
MetaPost, using counters to keep track of whether the current text is at
the top, middle, or bottom of the box. However, I'm having issues when one
box ends and another starts on the same page (see more details below). From
what I understand, the issue is that counters seem to be updated on a
page-wide basis, so each MPgraphic ‘sees’ the values of counters at the end
of the current page, which may not be right if another box modifies them.
Would anyone know how to resolve this?
Based on two answer on TeX StackExchange (
https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/486124/123770 ,
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/377234/context-frame-problems/377261#377261),
the following code works well if there is no more than one box per page:
```
\definecounter[pageNumberTop]
\definecounter[pageNumberBottom]
\startuseMPgraphic{mp:axiomframe}
begingroup;
for i=1 upto nofmultipars :
path p;
p := ( llcorner multipars[i]
-- lrcorner multipars[i]
-- urcorner multipars[i]
-- ulcorner multipars[i]
-- cycle )
enlarged (EmWidth,EmWidth) ;
fill p withcolor boxfillcolor ;
% if the current page is the first one covered by the box...
if (\pagenumber == \rawcountervalue[pageNumberTop]) :
% ... if it is also the last one, the box fits entirely on the
page; we thus draw the full frame
if \rawcountervalue[pageNumberTop] ==
\rawcountervalue[pageNumberBottom] :
draw p
withpen pencircle scaled 2pt
withcolor boxlinecolor ;
% ... otherwise, don't draw the bottom line
else :
draw llcorner multipars[i] + (-EmWidth, -EmWidth)
-- ulcorner multipars[i] + (-EmWidth, EmWidth)
-- urcorner multipars[i] + (EmWidth, EmWidth)
-- lrcorner multipars[i] + (EmWidth, -EmWidth)
withpen pencircle scaled 2pt
withcolor boxlinecolor ;
fi ;
picture pic;
pic := textext.ulft("\tfd\symbol[info]");
pic := pic shifted ulcorner multipars[i];
fill bbox pic withcolor white;
draw pic;
% if the current page is the last one covered by the box, draw the
left, bottom, and right lines
elseif \pagenumber == \rawcountervalue[pageNumberBottom] :
draw ulcorner multipars[i] + (-EmWidth, EmWidth)
-- llcorner multipars[i] + (-EmWidth, -EmWidth)
-- lrcorner multipars[i] + (EmWidth, -EmWidth)
-- urcorner multipars[i] + (EmWidth, EmWidth)
withpen pencircle scaled 2pt
withcolor boxlinecolor ;
% if the current page is neither the first one nor the last one, only
draw the left and right lines
else :
draw llcorner multipars[i] - (EmWidth, EmWidth)
-- ulcorner multipars[i] + (-EmWidth, EmWidth)
withpen pencircle scaled 2pt
withcolor boxlinecolor ;
draw urcorner multipars[i] + (EmWidth, EmWidth)
-- lrcorner multipars[i] + (EmWidth, -EmWidth)
withpen pencircle scaled 2pt
withcolor boxlinecolor ;
fi ;
endfor ;
setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ;
endgroup;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\definetextbackground
[theoremFrame]
[mp=mp:axiomframe,
location=paragraph,
backgroundcolor=green,
framecolor=red,
before={\setcounter[pageNumberTop][\pagenumber]},
after={\setcounter[pageNumberBottom][\pagenumber]}]
\definestartstop
[ColoredBox]
[before={\blank[2em]\starttheoremFrame},
after={\stoptheoremFrame\blank[2em]}]
```
For instance,
```
\startColoredBox
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\stopColoredBox
```
correctly gives a box split over multiple pages, with the top part of the
frame only drawn on the first page and the bottom part only drawn on the
last one.
It also works correctly when adding `\page` between boxes:
```
\starttext
\startColoredBox
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\stopColoredBox
\page
\startColoredBox
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\stopColoredBox
```
However, the following gives an incorrect output:
```
\starttext
\startColoredBox
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input knuth
\input kn

1. ConTeXt already uses \hl as name for a existing command.
2. Use \definestartstop:

This seems to be much better but does not lead to the wanted result. The full
example now is:
```
\definestartstop[myhl][style=mono,left={›\thinspace}]
\definedescription[categorie][
alternative=top,

This is a \myhl{highlight}.
Some listings
\startcategorie{Itemize}
\startitemize[packed]
\item \myhl{first}: one

\stopitemize
\stopcategorie
Now the same as desc:
\startcategorie{Desc}
\startdesc{first} one \stopdesc
\startdesc{second} two \stopdesc
\stopcategorie
\stoptext
```
This adopts the correct style in \startdesc \stopdesc and sets the colon but
omits the › (the left part).
You can do the following in the next version.
1. Add "arguments=yes" to \definestartstop to enable the optional
argument for the new command.
2. Use the new commands with the "headcommand" key and apply ":" as
right delimiter for the content of \Highlight.
\definestartstop

Hi,
I was in the process to convert an itemize part to a description and wanted to

I discovered headcommand for that, but struggled to set the text in an

Not sure what exactly you want, but how about:
\definehighlight[hl][style={\m{>}\,\switchtobodyfont[tt]}]
% This is the wrong way to define such a command as '>' is not part of the
style. I have left this definition just for comparison with the soln below.
Is there a better way to define a highlight that sets a style (color, font)
_and_ a prefix (symbol)?
Another way, I know of, would be just a plain def, something like
\def{\hl}{\groupedcommand{>\,\switchtobodyfont[tt]}{}}, but actually I want to
define a highlight (just with an additional prefix).
1. ConTeXt already uses \hl as name for a existing command.
2. Use \definestartstop:
\definestartstop [gerion] [style=mono,left={›\thinspace}]
\starttext
text
\gerion{text}
\stoptext
\definedescription[category][

headstyle=bold,

\definedescription[desc][

As described, here is example:
%
\def\cmd#1{{\tt\textslash #1}}
\def\cmdii#1{\tt #1}
\def\cmdiii#1{\rm #1}
You can use \definehighlight to create a custom command for a style.
The case where you want a slash before the text you have to use
\definestartstop which allows you to set something before and after
\definestartstop [cmdi] [style=\tt,left=\textslash]
\definehighlight [cmdii] [style=\tt]
\definehighlight [cmdiii] [style=\rm]

[NTG-context] Re: how to define an environment with key=value arguments
Henning Hraban Ramm schrieb am 08.09.2023 um 12:22:
Hi,
for an involved image placement (full page image starting each
chapter, several stacked elements), I’d like an environment that
accepts key-value arguments, like
\startMyFigure[page=left,title={My caption}]
\externalfigure[dummy]…
\stopMyFigure
I don’t think that a real float makes sense, even if the interface
looks similar, since it’s always a full page in a fixed place, I need
no numbering and can place the caption myself.
Does it make sense to use \definestartstop?
How would I “plugin“ the argument handling?
Or should I better define start and stop separately?
\def\startMyFigure[#1]{
% e.g. use utilities.parsers.settings_to_hash(#1)
}
\def\stopMyFigure{}
Probably I’ll need to catch the content (\externalfigure, might become
more) and use it in a \setlayer – so perhaps something like
\definebuffer[MyFigure]
\define\stopMyFigure{%
\setlayer[page]{\getMyFigure}}}
}
?
But then I don’t know how to handle the arguments.
Probably it makes most sense to do it in Lua, like
\startluacode
interfaces.implement {
name = "startMyFigure",
public = true,
arguments = {"hash",},
actions = function(h, a)
-- …
end, }
\stopluacode
But I didn’t find how to do environments.
When you just need an environment with a optional argument to pass user
values you can
use the userdata environment but be aware that you have some limitations
(like verbatim)
because the mechanism uses a buffer to store the content.
For images (and other content) which are placed on a separate page at
the start of a chapter
you can use the pageinjection mechanism which was added for this purpose.

If I change the following line:

Then the title "some string" is repeated. It seems like the value for

Essentially, I'm trying to visually offset multiple paragraphs using a

Each new "concurrent" section needs its own header that doesn't repeat.

There's always a way out but not always a pretty one.
One problem is that these graphics are done later, when a page gets
assembled, so you get the current value at that time. Then there is
grouping so you need to assign global. Now, there can be caching but
you use expanded string so that's not the issue.
% draw image ( draw rawtextext(legend) notcached) ;
That is seldom needed. So below is a solution. When you cross pages with
a frame you need to make sure the text is done once. I let you figure
that out (after all you came this far so i guess you know). For historic
reasons (mkii / performance) it's not the easiest mechanism.
% We store each one independent:
\newinteger\ConcurrentTextSetCounter
\newinteger\ConcurrentTextGetCounter

\def\ConcurrentTextGet % we want full expansion here
{\localcontrolled{\global\advance\ConcurrentTextGetCounter\plusone}%

You can actually do this:
\startxmlsetups xml:div
\setupstartstop
[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]
[before={TITLE: \xmlatt{#1}{data-title}}]%
\start[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]%
\xmlflush{#1}
\stop
\stopxmlsetups
\definestartstop
[concurrent]
and you then can also do
\namedstartstopparameter{concurrent}{before}
when needed, which save you the intermediate variable because it's
already in before, so from that it's a natural step to
\startxmlsetups xml:div
\setupstartstop
[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]
[title=\xmlatt{#1}{data-title},
before={TITLE: \namedstartstopparameter{concurrent}{title}}]%
\start[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]%
\xmlflush{#1}
\stop
\stopxmlsetups
\definestartstop
[concurrent]
and then with:
\namedstartstopparameter{concurrent}{title}
(i'll add this example to the test suite as demo)

[NTG-context] Map XML attributes to variables, dynamically
Hello!
A Markdown document resembles the following:
::: {.concurrent title="Berth 5" location="San Diego"}
Text Goes Here
:::
::: {.concurrent title="Road" location="Beale AFB"}
Different Text Goes Here
:::
The XHTML generated from that document resembles:
Text Goes Here
Different Text Goes Here
Environments for the DIV element gets translated using:
\startxmlsetups xml:div
\start[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]\xmlflush{#1}\stop
\stopxmlsetups
This creates "\startconcurrent" and "\stopconcurrent", which are later
defined using "\definestartstop[concurrent]".
I'd like to dynamically define all the data- attributes to make key/value
pairs accessible from the document. For example, I have this:
\definestartstop[concurrent][
before={%
\blank[big]%
\setMPtext{1}{Berth 5}%
\startTextConcurrentFrame},
after={\stopTextConcurrentFrame\blank[big]},
]
I'd like to replace \setMPText calls with a reference to a dynamically
created variable reference. For example:
\setMPtext{1}{\usermap[concurrent.title]}
\setMPtext{2}{\usermap[concurrent.location]}
I can verify the attribute values exist by exporting them to the document:
\startxmlsetups xml:div
title:\xmlatt{#1}{data-title} location:\xmlatt{#1}{data-location}
\start[\xmlatt{#1}{class}]\xmlflush{#1}\stop
\stopxmlsetups
How would you change the xml:div setup to create a map of its attributes as
key/value pairs?
Thank you!

[NTG-context] Parallel columns using start/stop setups
Two concurrent situations can happen, which I'd like to typeset as two
parallel columns while keeping the overall page layout (i.e., headers,
footers, margins, and such).
current version: 2023.07.18 22:07
I'd like to find a way to set up start/stop environments, if possible, to
come up with a general-purpose solution (i.e., the prose itself is not
changed).
Here are a few examples. In the first, a "concurrent" environment is
created with two "timelines":
% SOT
\definestartstop[concurrent][
before={\startcolumns[n=2, align={verytolerant,stretch}, separator=rule]},
after=\stopcolumns,
]
\definestartstop[timelinea][
after=\column,
]
\definestartstop[timelineb][]
\starttext
\startconcurrent
\starttimelinea
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward}
\stoptimelinea
\starttimelineb
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth}
\stoptimelineb
\stopconcurrent
\stoptext
% EOT
The ward and knuth texts end up in the same column because one is shorter
than the other. Here's another attempt:
% SOT
\defineparagraphs[concurrent][n=2]
\definestartstop[timelinea][
before=\concurrent,
after=\concurrent,
]
\definestartstop[timelineb][
before=\concurrent,
]
\starttext
\startconcurrent
\starttimelinea
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward}
\stoptimelinea
\starttimelineb
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth}
\stoptimelineb
\stopconcurrent
\stoptext
% EOT
This loses much of the input text.
Can this be accomplished using LMTX and what would be the best approach?
Would this setupparagraphs, definecolumnset, synchronizestreams, or
possibly incomplete/experimental functionality?
Thank you!

Re: [NTG-context] Problem with \stoptabulate
Thanks Julian - I tried a startstop environment originally but it didn't work.
The answer turns out to be trivial - just needed to use \long\def for

[NTG-context] Definestartstop, Narrower, and Blockquotej
I get a decidedly odd (or, at least, unexpected by me) result from this, based
on the example on the contextgarden page for definestartstop:
\starttext
\defineblank[ExtractDistance][3pt]
\definestartstop[Extract][
style=slanted,
before={\blank[ExtractDistance]
\setupnarrower[left=2in,right=1in]
\startnarrower[left,right]

\blank[ExtractDistance]
\indenting[next]}]
%Now the following commands are available: \startExtract and \stopExtract
\starttext
The extract from Knuth
\startExtract \input knuth \stopExtract
\stoptext
But now, blockquote is altered:
\startblockquote
\input lorem
\stopblockquote
But not narrower itself:
\startnarrower

\stopnarrower

A simpler solution as you only have 10 chapters might be to 'manually' add the
facing page rather than fiddle with the definition of \startchapter.
For example:
\definestartstop [ChapterPreface]
[ before={\setups{ChapterPrefaceSetup}},
after={\page}
]
% which gives you the commands \startChapterPreface ... \stopChapterPreface
which I put immediately before \startchapter in the text.
% Then use a setup to prepare the page for your image (you may only need
\page[left] but also remember you need to stop page headers/footers etc from
the previous chapter)
\startsetups ChapterPrefaceSetup
\page[left]
\setupheader[state=empty]
% etc
\stopsetups
% If the page setup is complicated then you might need another setup to clean
it up afterwards. In this example there is just the "after=" in the definition.
% Now you can print your images by using:
\starttext
\startChapterPreface
\externalfigure[cow.pdf]
\stopChapterPreface
\startchapter[title={firstchapter}}
...
\stopchapter
\startChapterPreface
\externalfigure[another_cow.pdf]
\stopChapterPreface
\startchapter{title={second chapter}]
...
\stopchapter
\stoptext
Hope this helps.

Re: [NTG-context] Odd Font Behavior in startstop Group
Michael Urban via ntg-context schrieb am 05.02.2022 um 20:28:
I am experiencing an odd behavior switching text styles in a defined startstop group
("blockquote"). I get different behavior depending on whether the
switchtobodyfont in the startstop definition includes the dummy {\it } and {\bf } text.
If they are not there, the italic and boldface switches in the second blockquote revert
to the gyreschola body font of the main text; but this only happens if there is an
earlier blockquote with no style changes. This is with:

\definefallbackfamily[story][serif][notoserif][range={greekandcoptic,greekextended},force=yes]
\definefontfamily[story][serif][TeX Gyre Schola]
The following two font settings are wrong, you're passing the name of a
typescript for the third argument while \definefontfamily expects the
family name of a font.
Even though the usage of the command is wrong you didn't notice it
because as a fallback \definefontfamily uses the Latin Modern version of
the requested style when no font was found.
\definefontfamily[story][sans][modern]
\definefontfamily[story][mono][modern]
The correct settings for both settings are
\definefontfamily [story] [sans] [Latin Modern Sans]
\definefontfamily [story] [mono] [Latin Modern Mono] [features=none]
with the "features=none" for the mono font to ensure no ligatures are
formed.
An alternative for \definefontfamily is to use \definetypeface and
choose a predefined typescript for the Latin Modern family. You can
either use
\definetypeface [story] [ss] [sans] [modern] [default]
\definetypeface [story] [ss] [mono] [modern] [default]
which uses the 10pt optical size even for smaller and bigger sizes or
you enable optical sizes with the following typescript
\definetypeface [story] [ss] [sans] [modern-designsize] [default]
\definetypeface [story] [ss] [mono] [modern-designsize] [default]
\definefontfamily[story][mm][TeX Gyre Pagella Math]
I recommend to load the math font with the provided typescript because
they ensure existing patches (e.g. spacing corrections) for the selected
font are applied.
\definetypeface [story] [mm] [math] [pagella] [default]
\setupbodyfont[story,11pt]
\definestartstop[blockquote]

\switchtobodyfont[termes]{\it }{\bf }% This is so weird. Put a
comment marker after [termes] for a different result
},
after={ \stopnarrower \blank \indenting[next]},

ConTeXt already provides a blockquote-environment which can be
configured to have the same style as your custom environment.
\startsetups [blockquote:style]
\switchtobodyfont[termes]
\setupwhitespace[2pt]
\stopsetups
\setupdelimitedtext
[blockquote]
[spacebefore=big,
style=\directsetup{blockquote:style},

[NTG-context] Solved: Book setup with LHS-side quotes before chapters/parts, header/footer issues, TOC, etc.
Thanks to Wolfgang Schuster and Bruce Horrocks I have now a working solution. I
ended up following Bruce’s suggestion of doing a left hand side (LHS) page
opposite the first (RHS) chapter or part page differently than using
after/before modifications of the \chapter and \part setups as I had been doing
years ago (but that book did not have parts and was done in mkii)
The modification of \chapter and \part setups with before= and after= never
worked in the \component setup in LMTX. Creating a separate command to run
immediately before a \chapter or \part, as suggested by Bruce, was simpler and
and turned out to be more robust. So, this single file example also works when
\components are used.
The only issues I have now left are very minimal. In the table of contents, the
abstract for a part has some extra whitespace above, which the chapter
abstracts don’t have. But that is not really a problem. And getting the part
title somewhere more centred on its page is also left as an issue for later.
Example file. In a project/component setup: everything before the \starttext
goes into the environment file, the rest in the product file.

Re: [NTG-context] TikZ in buffers: My struggle with \definestartstop
Thanks Hans!
That works great. I understand it all and it is working in my book, so even
better. I did not know you could \typsetbuffer[a,b,c]. I will be using that
again.
In case anyone finds this in the future, trying to solve a similar issue, my
final version is below, including my \marginTikZ command.

I assume that when you see some trickery that you can do the rest yourself.
\starttext
First we typeset the box ad one line and then flush it in a vertical box
(paragraph). We can of course also typeset each time. When we're okay
with the fit (naturalwidth == less than max width) we quit. We can
assume that spaces have enough stretch to deal with the close fit.

This variant is more neat as it returns the to b eused width. It doesn't

\hsize \guessbestwidth{10cm}{1mm}{\input{ward}}
\input{ward}
\the\guessbestwidth{10cm}{1mm}{\input{ward}}
\stoptext
The mechanisms used are relatively simple:
- good old tex primitives
- few scratch registers
- a loop that we quit
- the boxlines mechanism discussed in some manual (i admit that i
already had forgotten about it)
- and in the last example some local processing magic which makes sure
that all these calculations are unseen
One can then of course try to make it more compact:
\protected\def\guessbestwidth#1#2#3%
{\beginlocalcontrol
\begingroup
\hsize#1\relax
\setbox\scratchboxone\hbox\bgroup#3\egroup

\advance\hsize-#2\relax

And of course you now need to wikify it.

Hi all,
I want to typeset poems in a special way.
I want to achieve something like Capitalis quadrata which was used by
the Romans in stone.
See here:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalis_quadrata#/media/Datei:Capitalis_Quadrata1.png
One stream of letters without spaces and interpunctation.
The input files I have to use are written as usually:
This is a line,
that is a line,
and a third line as well
I want to typeset the whole poem in the Capitalis quadrata way:
THISISALINETHATIS
ALINEANDATHIRDLIN
EASWELL
The whole poem forms one block of upper case letters.
No interword spacing.
I guess that I can make my hands dirty with lua and write a filter that skips
all interpunctation and spaces, converts the whole text to lower- or uppercase
and after this use a special font with nice upper case letters.
But I need a special hyphenation that hyphenates just were the
line ends.
Any hints how to achieve this?
An lmtx solution:
\starttext
\definestartstop
[CapitalisQuadrata]
[setups=foo]
\startsetups foo
\pushoverloadmode % needed when protection enabled
\def\obeyedline{\removepunctuation\endgraf}
\obeylines
\nospacing
\WORD
\popoverloadmode
\stopsetups
\start[CapitalisQuadrata]
This is a line,
that is a line,
and a third line as well
\stop

Re: [NTG-context] Typing efficiency
Hi,
Sounds like a job for the blocks mechanism more so than buffers:
\defineblock[entext]
\defineblock[nltext]
\defineselector [language] [max=2,n=1]
\startmode[en]
\setupselector[language][n=1]
\keepblocks[entext]

\startmode[nl]
\setupselector[language][n=2]
\keepblocks[nltext]
\stopmode

You are right of course... In fact I already use blocks, for another purpose,
but I did not think about this solution because I needed a lot of formatting
(these blocks should occupy whole page, different background color…), but
blocks can adapt to my current need (I have try this morning) using the
\setupblock[][before=..,after=…] command. And there is a bonus; I can « collect
» these blocks and put them all together at the end of my courses notes, this
is perfect.

When you enable the ClassRoom mode ConTeXt encounters this line \definestartstop [Questions] which redefines the Questions environment which uses now the startstop-mechanism but the previously created environment buffer based environment no longer exists. The reason for this redefinition is to keep the content of the environment in the document although you could have used other methods to achieve the same as \definestartstop.

Thanks to Aditya, I have succeeded, but it was not trivial for me. So, in case
somebody someday would need a detailed solution, here is a minimal example, and
an explanation.
A buffer « Questions » is defined. If in « ClassRoom » mode, a start/stop «
Questions » is also defined. So when ConTeXt encounters the \startQuestions /
\stopQuestions, if the « ClassRoom » mode is enabled, the buffer is processed
(with some format if needed - framed here for the example), and if the mode «
ClassRoom » is disabled, then nothing is process. You can add as many
\startQuestions / \stopQuestions you wish.
% --
\definebuffer[Questions]
\enablemode[ClassRoom] % Try "On / Off » to process "\startQuestions /
\stopQuestions » or not.
\startmode[ClassRoom]
\definestartstop[Questions][before={\startframedtext\red},after={\stopframedtext\blue}]
\stopmode
\starttext
Before...
\startQuestions
The content of the buffer !
\stopQuestions
After...
\stoptext

I am currently writing a text where I want to include text snippets
either by including files or including buffers.
What is the best way to style all these included buffers?
I know that I can do something like this:
\startcolumns
\getbuffer[Muenchen]
\stopcolumns
Or do something with \defineparagraph
Is it somehow possible to apply styles to all buffers that gets
included via \getbuffer by defining a special getbuffer-style?
\setupbuffer has before and after keys which can be used. Example:
\setupbuffer
[before=\blank\blackrule\startnarrower\BufferStyle,
after=\stopnarrower\blackrule\blank]
[...]
\definehighlight
[BufferStyle]
[style=smallitalic,
color=blue]
Use the highlight-environment or create a new startstop-environment to
apply style and color settings to the buffer.
\definestartstop
[BufferStyle]
[style=smallitalic,
color=blue]
\setupbuffer
[before={... \startBufferStyle ...},
after={... \stopBufferStyle ...}]

[NTG-context] Fwd: Re: Spurious newlines at beginning of startstop pair
Hans,
thanks for your answer. But two questions:
First: Am I right to assume that the important part is `\GetPar`. The rest is
syntactic sugar to make to code more ConTeXt-like, right?
Second: For some reasons I have not received your message. It wasn't in the
Spam folder and I usually receive mails from the list. Any ideas? Are there
some known problems?
Best,

Hi,
The following minimal example:
\definetextbackground
[EXAMPLE]
[
location=paragraph,
rulethickness=1pt,
leftoffset=5em,
rightoffset=0mm,
]
\setuptyping[option=tex, before=\startEXAMPLE, after=\stopEXAMPLE]
\starttext
\starttyping
A = B + C
\stoptyping
\stoptext
gives the attached output where the background is repeated twice. The
bug is present with both mkiv and ltmx.

Re: [NTG-context] problems with "pagecomment"
I see. Thanks for the explanation.
So the following works:
---
\unprotect
\setvalue{startNotes}%
{\global\settrue\c_page_comment_enabled
\grabbufferdatadirect{pagecomment}{startpagecomment}{stopNotes}}
\protect
\def\stopNotes{}
--
What does the second argument to \grabbufferdatadirect mean? Nothing
changes when I modify that.
The point of redefining the pagecomment environment for me was to style it
a bit: add \righttoleft at the beginning, and surround the content in
startstopnarrower. How can I inject prepend/append to a buffer's content?
The solution I can think of is to use a different buffer
"pagecomment_internal" in the above definition, and then build buffer
"pagecomment" using that.
Thanks,
~MHB

The pagecomment environment uses the buffer mechanism to store the content

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.

[NTG-context] \definetextbackground does not fill tables within
Hi,
I have simple document which I define my \definetextbackground:
\startteoria and \stopteoria (see below). When I use it and put table
within, the table does not get filled with color. Any solution?
Thanks in advance,

no, why should there be? spaces are never ignored after the last [...]

You assume \start[<...>] ... \stop is linked to \definestartstop but this
isn’t the case,
what the environment does is to generate a start-command with the argument
but this works for every environment, e.g. \start[itemize] ... \stop does the
same
as \startitemize ... \stopitemize.
I'm not asking to add \ignorespaces to the definition of \start. I'm rather
asking, where I have to but \ignorespaces in the setup to eat the space after
the options I pass to \start.
Why do use insinst on the use of \start, when you create a new
command/environment
with \definestartstop you get additional commands for the instance where
the space
at the begin of the environment are gobbled.
\definestartstop[Highlight][style=italic,color=red]
\starttext

To answer your question where you can add \ignorespace, there is no way
to add it.

Re: [NTG-context] Spurious space in \definestartstop
Might I add that the use of a command containing spaces in its name is spurious. Try: \definestartstop[spuriusspacea] \startspuriusspacea ... \stopspuriuspsacea, and then come up with a better name!

Try something based on this:

function userdata.wordcount(listname)

local w = dofile(filename)

[NTG-context] Word and character count excluding TeX-directives
To meet some formal guidelines, I need to provide a word count of my
abstract and a character count of the main text, and a character count
of all the text appearing in figure captions.
Is this possible (maybe using some lua-magic)?
Thank you!
Thomas

Hans,
sorry for insisting, but I really need this.
I have the following sample:
\definetype[context][option=tex]
\definetype[lua][option=lua]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=2em]
a \TEX\ inline comment: \context{ag%befe}
\Lua\ inline comment: \lua{agb --efe}
\startTEX
This is text. % a comment, not \comment
\stopTEX
\startXML
This is text.
\stopXML
\startLUA
if code=="code" then --this is a comment
\stopLUA
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
Would it be possible that all comments in type and typing (at least, for
Lua, XML and TeX) would have the same formatting for the whole comment
contents, including the comment signs?
Sorry, but with the current output, it is hard to see (for total
newbies) what is part of the comment and what not. And the text editor
will display something different.
It depends on the lexer ...
% \usemodule[scite] % use editor logic
% DIffers per lexer:
\definestartstop
[XmlSnippetComment]
[color=,
style=]
I’m afraid that the scite module isn’t an option for me.
Then you need to configure the highligheters yourself

[NTG-context] Extend is indented after section (2nd try)
[This is a second try at sending this message, after I got the not that I'm
on the mailing list now.]
Hello,
When I'm using an exdent after a section command, the first line of the
exdented paragraph is indented, instead of exdented. Here's an example:
=
\definestartstop
[exdent]
[before={\startnarrower[left]\setupindenting[-\leftskip,yes]},
after=\stopnarrower]
\starttext
\startcolumns[n=2]
\section{Heading 1}
Some text.
\startexdent
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
\stopexdent
\section{Heading 2}
\startexdent
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
\stopexdent
\stoptext
=
The paragraph after "Heading 2" is indented. If I delete the text "Some
text." after "Heading 1", the exdented paragraph is is also indented
instead of exdented.
What can I do to prevent this?
