Hi,
Is there a way to have something like \indenting[hang] ?
With the first line not indented, but the second and following lines?
First I thought this is what is ment by \indenting[next],
but \indenting[next] seems to be exactly the same as
\indenting[first], is this right?
Always happy for replies,
Steffen

kind of tricky, since settings to hangindent and alike are forgotten when
the setup is followed by an empty line;
there is \starthanging ... \stophanging now
but ... if we can assume that users start tagging their paragraphs with
\bpar .. \epar i can imagine that we provide something \indenting [hang],
so the question is: are you willing to tag

imo, the question is: what has hanging to do with indenting?
Aren't these things completely different matters?
If yes, please don't spoil \indenting with that.
\setuphanging already exists, an option 'atbpar=on' (or something more
pleasant) should suit the needs IMO better.

Hi Hans, hi Jens!
There is always another surprise in ConTexT. I mean:
How should I know? My sources are Hans's manuals + the list-archiv.
Neither in the manuals nor in the archive \setuphanging or
\starthanging is mentioned...
So I am sorry for asking for things that maybe already exist!
But now I have to ask: how do I use \setuphanging or \starthanging actually?
Is there some kind of documentation or at least a minimal example somewhere?
Thanks for the lessons.
Steffen
