Re: LaTeX reledmac: what about ConTeXt ?

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

Hi Pablo and other ConTeXt wizards !

I've tried to find a solution to my previous question. Thanks to Pablo Rodriguez, the script is working very well. But when I try to take his solution with a 2 columns scheme (a Greek tex on left and a latin one on right), the footnotes are not printed. I did something which is not the best : to gather some declarations and see if they work !
Then, the script below is more or less working (it does work : no error in the log !), but because it doesn't print footnotes, I wonder that it succeeds to print the 2 columns (greek and latin) ! To summarize what it doesn't work here : 
1) lines numbering
2) footnotes

Here is the script, which need to be clarified.

Définir un apparat critique et le mettre en page avec un traitement de texte courant est un véritable casse-tête.

Hi Jean-Pierre,

I’m afraid that parallel texts is something it has to be improved in
ConTeXt, when Hans finds the time, the motivation... and a more or less
unified proposal.

So, you will have to wait until it is implemented (or simply improved).
