I was throwing it out there for comment from others. My point is that there should be a clear analog to the blockquote structures as they work in other systems here. It makes it easier for me as a user, and also easier to map code from DocBook and so forth to ConTeXt, and vice versa (relevant if we see a ConTeXt --> HTML converter). But, I can also say that it is not uncommon for me to be confused by ConTeXt naming schemes, so maybe I just don't get a logic that is there but I just don't always see. >> So here I can turn off the symbols? > > yes, and a bit more (although for non-quotes things startnarrower may > be a better solution) My point is that, in my experience, long set off quotations (block quotes) do not have quotation marks. They are, however, still "quotes." Bruce
