The module doesn’t draw a rule for the signature.

[NTG-context] How to create horizontal line for signature?

[Paul Menzel]

Dear ConTeXt folks,


sometimes you need to insert a line for signature. I could not find
anything usefull especially `\underbar{\hspace[10*\big]}` [2] did not
work. I ended up abusing `\framed` [3].

\starttext
\startstandardmakeup[align=right]
Alles rechtens. Everything is fine and nobody cheated.
\blank[medium]
London, den 28.\,June 2011
\blank[3*big]
\framed[width=5cm, frame=off, topframe=on]{\small John Doe}
\stopstandardmakeup
\stoptext

The down side is, that its widths is not perfectly aligned with the
location and date.

I guess there is something simpler to do it. I looked at Wolfgang’s
letter module but could not figure out how it is done there.

Something like the examples posted for LaTeX on Stack Exchange [3] for
ConTeXt would be nice.


Thanks,

Paul
