Re: LaTeX reledmac: what about ConTeXt ?

[Jean-Pierre Delange <adeimantos@free.fr>]

Hi Pablo !

Now, with the same scheme you generously gave us, I try to print (as a sample) some Ancient Greek text on a column located at left, with its Latin translation located on the right of the page and 'criticus apparatus' in French the footnotes, as previously asked.
Then, we have Greek, Latin and French languages...

Thank you very much for your help !

A sample of Aristotle Greek:
[1a] Ὁμώνυμα λέγεται ὧν ὄνομα μόνον κοινόν, ὁ δὲ κατὰ τοὔνομα λόγος τῆς οὐσίας ἕτερος, οἷον ζῷον ὅ τε ἄνθρωπος καὶ τὸ γεγραμμένον• τούτων γὰρ ὄνομα μόνον κοινόν, ὁ δὲ κατὰ τοὔνομα λόγος τῆς οὐσίας ἕτερος• ἐὰν γὰρ ↵ ἀποδιδῷ τις τί ἐστιν αὐτῶν ἑκατέρῳ τὸ ζῴῳ εἶναι, ἴδιον ἑκατέρου λόγον ἀποδώσει.

Latin translation:
Aequivoca dicuntur quorum nomen solum commune est, secundum nomen vero substantiae ratio diversa, ut animal homo et quod pingitur. Horum enim solum nomen commune est, secundum nomen vero substantiae ratio diversa; si enim quis assignet quid est utrique eorum quo sint animalia, propriam assignabit utriusque rationem.

Hi Jean-Pierre,

here you have a basic sample:

    \mainlanguage[la]
    \setuplayout[header=0cm, footer=0cm]
    \setuplinenumbering[step=5]
    \setupnotations[alternative=serried]
    \definelinenote[aNote]
    \definelinenote[bNote][n=2]
    \definelinenote[cNote][n=3]
    \definelinenote[dNote][paragraph=yes]
    \def\ANote#1#2{#1\aNote{#1] #2}}
    \def\BNote#1#2{#1\bNote{#1] #2}}
    \def\CNote#1#2{#1\cNote{#1] #2}}
    \def\DNote#1#2{#1\dNote{#1] #2}}
    \setupbodyfont[palatino, 7.8pt]
    \starttext
    \start\en
    \startlinenumbering
    \dorecurse{9}% only to repeat the following paragraph
    {Cum defensionum \CNote{laboribus}{first note} senatoriisque
    muneribus aut omnino aut magna ex parte essem aliquando liberatus,
    rettuli me, Brute, te hortante maxime ad ea studia, quae retenta
    animo, remissa temporibus, longo intervallo intermissa revocavi, et
    cum omnium artium, quae ad rectam vivendi viam pertinerent,
    \ANote{ratio}{second note} et disciplina studio sapientiae, quae
    philosophia dicitur, contineretur, hoc mihi Latinis litteris
    \DNote{inlustrandum}{third note} putavi, non quia
    \BNote{philosophia}{fourth note} Graecis et litteris et doctoribus
    percipi non posset, sed meum semper iudicium fuit omnia nostros aut
    invenisse per se sapientius quam Graecos aut accepta ab illis
    fecisse meliora, quae quidem digna statuissent, in quibus
    elaborarent.\par}
    \stoplinenumbering
    \stoptext

I hope it helps,

Pablo
