header for indented text / blockquote

header for indented text / blockquote

[R. Ermers]

Dear All,

In my docbook xml document I have fragments that I want to typeset indented. For this I use the tag <blockquote> which I map to startnarrower and stopnarrower.

Some blockquotes in my document have a header:

<blockquote>
<title>How a cow catches a rabbit</title>
<para>Text Text</para>
</blockquote>

I was wondering if the header could be setup just like sections and section headers in the following way:

\startnarrower[title={title}, reference=reference]
....
\stopnarrower

Perhaps I need to create a new environment (blockquote) with these qualities?

The title and the reference to the section (and subsections) can now easily be matched to lpath variables (much easier than when \section  in fact refers to the section title).

Another question related to this is how to can typeset the text of the blockquote in two columns, while its header is typeset over the full page.

Kind regards,

Robert

\usemodule[annotation]

\define[2]\QuotationCommand
  {\startnarrower
   #1\blank
   \startcolumns#2\stopcolumns
   \stopnarrower}

\defineannotation
  [myquotation]
  [alternative=command,
   left=,
   right=,
   command=\QuotationCommand]

\starttext

\input knuth

\startmyquotation{How a cow catches a rabbit}
\input knuth
\stopmyquotation

\input knuth

\stoptext

Thanks Wolfgang!

I saw your examples and the module does exactly what I need.

I installed the module from the context wiki third party modules, but got this error message:

system          : module annotation loaded
(/prog2/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/third/annotation/t-annotation.mkvi

<to be read again> 
                   \par 
l.662 
      
? 
)

I then found out that there is a newer version (%D version=2011.04.22) https://bitbucket.org/wolfs/annotation/changesets.
The same error persists.

Regards,

Robert

Your context is too old. When you use the minimals you can install the module with “first-setup.sh --extras=t-annotation”.

I put a new version on bitbucket where you can now write

\startmyquotation[title={Ward}]
\input ward
\stopmyquotation
