quotation/blockquote bug

quotation/blockquote bug

[Idris Samawi Hamid]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1480 bytes --]

Dear syndicate,

There is a bug in \quotation and/or \blockquote (pdf attached): there is a  
spurious dbl-quote mark at the end of the par that only occurs when  
\quotation is invoked.

Please advise, workarounds welcome :-)

Best wishes
Idris

============================
% engine=luatex

\starttext

\startblockquote
The now also must be indivisible: that is, the now in the essential
and primary sense in which the now is inherent in all time; not,
indeed, the now in the derived sense of a period of time…This now,
which functions as the border between both past and future, must,
indeed, be identical….If the now were separate limits [of both the
past and the future], there would be a time between them, since
every [real] continuum must have something of the same kind between
its limits; and the time between them would be divisible, since we
have proved that all time is divisible. Accordingly, the now would
be divisible [and it would not, then, be the now we are talking
about]….Thus, it is clear that time includes something indivisible,
which we call a \quotation{now.} Obviously, too, nothing can be
moving during a now.
\stopblockquote

Your example is too long, I could reproduce this also with the folowing
short example.

\startquotation text \quote{text} text\stopquotation

The wrong right values did only appear if you use singlecommand
quotations within a quotation environment.

The push and popdelimitedtext macros did not work correct in this case
and ConTeXt thinks there current environment is "quotation" and not
"blockquote" when it reaches the \stopblockquote command.

A group around the single quote command helps, you core macros would
look like:

\unprotect

\def\delimitedtext[#1]%
  {\bgroup
   \pushdelimitedtext{#1}%
   \doifelse{\delimitedtextparameter\c!method}\s!font
     {\dofontdrivendelimited}
     {\doifinsetelse{\delimitedtextparameter\c!location}{\v!paragraph,
\v!margin}% \dodelimitedtextpar\dodelimitedtexttxt}}

\unexpanded\def\dodelimitedtextpar
  {\dohandleleftdelimitedtext\c!left\relax
   \groupedcommand
     \donothing
     {\dohandlerightdelimitedtext\c!right\removelastskip
      \popdelimitedtext
      \egroup}}

\def\doquoteddelimited
  {\dohandleleftdelimitedtext\c!left\relax
   \groupedcommand
     \donothing
     {\dohandlerightdelimitedtext\c!right
      \removelastskip
      \popdelimitedtext
      \egroup}}

\def\doattributeddelimited
  {\groupedcommand
     {\dostartattributes{\??ci\currentdelimitedtext}\c!style\c!color}
     {\dostopattributes
      \popdelimitedtext
      \egroup}}

\protect

I added in the macros above only a \bgroup in \delimitedtext and a
\egroup in every of the other three commands.

Indeed, much more to the point :-)

There is a bug in here I think: ConTeXt validation gives

error in file qabas-test.tex at line 6 in column 3: missing } for {
error in file qabas-test.tex at line 10 in column 6: missing } for {

line 6 is   {\bgroup

luatex eternally pauses with an apparent runaway argument....

But enclosing the whole thing {\quote{}} is a workaround.

Thank you very much for your continuous outppouring of wisdom, Wolfgang!

Best
Idris

Not for me, I tested it with mkii and mkiv. I think it was also
something weird introduced by the mail clint.

I attached now my test file.

Ugly workaround.

Your test file works fine; it was probably the email, 'cause I can't tell  
the difference...

Indeed, but when you're desperate and on a deadline...

But thank you very much again!

(Any luck with that interlineskip issue by any chance? ;-) )
