Hello--
I have noticed a couple of cases where ConTeXt macros seem to have
confused left and right sides:
1) I want to format some text in two columns, where the left column
is right-aligned and the right column is left-aligned. I found I
had to do this:
\defineparagraphs
[ingredient]
[n=2, before={\blank[small]},after={\blank[small]}]
\setupparagraphs
[ingredient] [1]
[width=.16\textwidth,align=left,style=bold]
2) In order to format format headers for a book so that the book title
appears on the left-hand page and the section title on the right, I
had to do this:
\setupheadertexts [] [section] [title] []
... which, as I read the documentation, is in the opposite order to
what it should be.
Is this a bug in ConTeXt, or have I misconfigured something?
