footnote within \startlines \stoplines

Dear Hans,
Example 1 below causes TeX to hang and I have to abort the TeX run
whereas Example 2 works when I omit \startlines / \stoplines and use
\crlf. I have included the console readout for Example 1 below. I can
get by with Example 2 but I thought I should let you know.
Thanks again,
Charlie Doherty

Example 1
And here is the sentence before
\startnarrower[2*left,2*right]
\startlines
A Somonour was ther with us in that place,
That hadde a fyr-reed cherubynnes face,
For saucefleem he was, with eyen narwe.
As hoot he was and lecherous as a sparwe,
With scalled browes blake and piled berd.
Of his visage children were aferd.%

Hi Charles, Current ConTeXt chokes on the use of \<space> within \startlines ... \stoplines (that is a known bug). You need a workaround. This works for the current example: \starttext Example 1 And here is the sentence before \startnarrower[2*left,2*right] % Bugfix: redefinition on the next line \startlines \def\ { } A Somonour was ther with us in that place, Greetings, Taco
