Re: [NTG-context] reference containing parentheses causes trouble
Actually in the context of references, not only parentheses as Wolfgang pointed out, but also some words are reserved, such as nextpage and previous page: \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \goto{Second page}[page(2)] \goto{Go to next page}[nextpage] \page \goto{ConTeXt garden}[url(http://wiki.contextgarden.net)] \goto{Go to previous page}[previouspage] \stoptext Best regards: OK > On 11 Jul 2019, at 11:03, Peter Rolf wrote: > > Am 10.07.2019 um 21:29 schrieb Wolfgang Schuster: >> Sanjoy Mahajan schrieb am 10.07.2019 um 04:15: >>> Dear List, >>> >>> Warning: The following may be a bug or feature or just my >>> misunderstanding!
