Hi,
I'm very new to ConTeXt and I've got some (probably naive) questions about
indenting.
1. According to the ConTeXt Excursion, using \setupindenting[medium] should lead
to indented paragraph. And actually, at least for me, it doesn't... I saw
examples on the wiki with \setupindenting[yes,medium]: this actually works, but
the 'yes' option is not documented for the \setupindenting command on texshow.
What am I missing here? Is the \indenting command needed even to indent the
whole document? It is not what I understood from the Excursion...
2. I have not been able to indent the first paragraph after a \section (or any
other titling) command. Isn't it the role of the 'first' option for
\setupindenting? Is a trick needed to have it work?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Morgan
\setupindenting[medium,first]
\starttext
This paragraph is not indented. It becomes indented when I add the
(undocumented?) 'yes' option to \setupindenting.
\section{A section}
How to get this one indented (in the whole document)?
\stoptext

The manuals are a little bit outdated and not every new feature and
change in the
setup is documented.

This is a feature, because the first paragraph after a section
shouldn't be intended
by default, you could change this with the following setups.
a. You want to enable indenting only for section commands.
\setuphead[section][indentnext=yes]
b. You want to enable indenting for all headers
\setupheads[indentnext=yes]

I see. So the 'yes' option is now a "true option" of \setupindenting?

In french documents, common usage is to indent every paragraphs, including those
following titles. Maybe this behaviour could be added in the \mainlanguage[fr]
command? I guess that babel does it in LaTeX when the frenchb option is chosen.

Thanks for this solution. This probably should be the default for french
documents...
