identation question

identation question

[frantisek holop]

hi there,

this is a quickie for the gurus:
i would like to get an "inverted" identation,
where the first line is not inverted but all
the others are:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Pellentesque
	nibh ipsum, consectetur sit amet, pellentesque eget, egestas ac,
	ligula.  Praesent ut sapien vel est pulvinar fringilla. Sed
	bibendum fermentum ante. Proin ipsum. Nulla in risus. Praesent
	nunc elit, laoreet at, viverra at, dapibus vel, purus. Mauris
	quis tellus. Nulla pharetra nulla quis lectus cursus placerat.
	In quis purus. Suspendisse molestie viverra elit. Nam eget
	tortor. Integer convallis erat rhoncus turpis.

thanks,

-f

There may be better ways to do this, but you can always fake it by 
negative indentation.

\setupindenting[-2cm,yes]
\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext

the problem is, that this messes with the margin...
the first lines are way out in the margin...

just does this :]  but i have been wrong before :]

\EveryPar{\hangafter=1\hangindent=2em\relax}

\starttext

\subject{Indented text}

\input knuth

\stoptext

I would be careful with such things because it's hard to say if this
will affect other elements in a negative way.
