In the beginner's manual, we have for \startitemize the following: \startitemize[..,..,..][..,..=..,..] ... \stopitemize I was wondering how do you read this in english? Based on the examples, am I correct to say the following? 1) The \startitemize is optionally followed by a comma separated list of parameters enclosed in brackets. 2) Then a set of key-value pairs enclosed in brackets follows. Again this is optional. If this is correct, then what about \setupitemize?. It says \setupitemize[.1.][..,.2.,..][..,..=..,..] So again let me guess .1. stands for a number The third set could be key-value pairs What about the set in the middle? Can we have an explanation for these please. Salman
Hello Salman, (second attempt for this mail...)
\startitemize[..,..,..][..,..=..,..] ... \stopitemize
1) The \startitemize is optionally followed by a comma separated list of parameters enclosed in brackets.
right.
2) Then a set of key-value pairs enclosed in brackets follows. Again this is optional.
correct.
If this is correct, then what about \setupitemize?. It says
\setupitemize[.1.][..,.2.,..][..,..=..,..]
So again let me guess .1. stands for a number
no, not really. "1" stands for "look at description 1, so it can be a number or the keyword "each"
The third set could be key-value pairs
right
What about the set in the middle?
Same as the first one in startitemize. It says ".2." : look at number two which is the "standard, n*broad, n*serried ..." Look at the first link I have in my signature and look for \setupitemgroup and \startitemgroup. (See also the comment in \setupitemgroup. The description is slightly different from the on in the beginners manual) Patrick -- texshow-web: http://members.ping.de:8061 ConTeXt wiki: http://members.ping.de:8062

Just a quick comment on the great wiki you have set up...your css is eh, sorta borked... :hover and :active actually act on every object in the DOM the way you have written it. That means that it will act on body which is kind of bad for me as Mozilla does the right thing here and renders everything in blue. A suggested fix would be to alter it to a[href]:hover {...} a[href]:active {...} which will alsa save you from anchored elements that are actually targets, not links... nikolai -- ::: name: Nikolai Weibull :: aliases: pcp / lone-star / aka ::: ::: born: Chicago, IL USA :: loc atm: Gothenburg, Sweden ::: ::: page: www.pcppopper.org :: fun atm: gf,lps,ruby,lisp,war3 ::: main(){printf(&linux["\021%six\012\0"],(linux)["have"]+"fun"-97);}

Well, your reply-address is eh, sorta borked. (Whatever this means.)
I tried to contact you off-list, but your address failed.

Weird...my mail server is shit it seems...
But thanks for the critique anyway.
Sure, I hope you didn't take it the wrong way, I come off a bit wrong sometimes...borked just means broken. nikolai -- ::: name: Nikolai Weibull :: aliases: pcp / lone-star / aka ::: ::: born: Chicago, IL USA :: loc atm: Gothenburg, Sweden ::: ::: page: www.pcppopper.org :: fun atm: gf,lps,ruby,lisp,war3 ::: main(){printf(&linux["\021%six\012\0"],(linux)["have"]+"fun"-97);}
