Hello,
I'use extensively context to write my lecture notes and for all of my printing needs.
For my students, I've made some lecture presentations in color, and I print them in black&white, with four pages on one page for the handout.
I would like to compute a correct Table of contents according to the handout : so to divide the current page number by four to get a correct page number for the handout.
\def\ChapterPrefix#1{\the\numexpr#1/4 \relax}
\setupcombinedlist[content][level=1]
\setuplist[chapter][after=,before=,numbercolor=yellow,numbercommand=\underbar,pagecommand=\ChapterPrefix]
That doesn't work, and I've some difficulties to figure how computation is performed in e-TeX...
Could you help me to resolve this issue ?
Kind regards,
Pierre-François Bonnefoi.

Dear Hans,
Thank you to answer my question.
I've tried it and I'm sorry to report that this only works in MK IV, that I don't use (I've tried but some of my documents don't translate correctly).
From my point of view, I don't know if it is the correct answer because I want to get some altered page number, and I think that I have to alter them "artificially", only for display purpose.
best regards,
Pierre-François Bonnefoi.

Hello,
Your \ChapterPrefix works out of the box with mkiv. Eventually it's easier to
solve the problems you have with mkiv, than dividing the page number by 4 in
mkii? I don't know...
Cheers, Peter

Dear Peter,
I run into some problem with font handling in MKIV so I'm stuck in MKII for some time.
I've tried the following :
\starttext
\def\ChapterPrefix#1{%
\the\numexpr\number#1/4\relax
}
\setupcombinedlist[content][level=1]
\setuplist[chapter][after=,before=,numbercolor=yellow,numbercommand=\underbar,pagecommand=\ChapterPrefix]
\setuplist[section][]
\completecontent
\dorecurse{3}{\chapter{test} \dorecurse{4}{test \page}}
\stoptext
In MKII, I get a "Missing number error".
I've isolated the problem : the value given to the \chapterprefix by the pagecommand option seems to be a text value and not a numeral value.
I've tried to find a function to translate text to number but I've not find it.
I hope to get some help.
kind regards,
Pierre-François.

manipulating the number that way is just a lucky guess: pagecommand (and
numbercommand) get some text passes and it might not even be a number,
as it all depends on conversion and special rendering

So, I've to forget it...
I'm a little bit disappointed that it's not possible.
But the waiting time for my students to get the lecture notes is over : I'll give them the handout with no page numbers.
Thank you for your support.
I hope that I could use MKIV in near future,
kind regards,
Pierre-François.

you can try to use \structurelistrealpagenumber which is set for each entry

But this function \structurelistrealpagenumber is not defined in MKII.
ok, ok I've to go to MKIV some day ;-)

A very dirty hack:
\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\let\normaltranslatednumber\translatednumber
\def\translatednumber[#1]%
{\number\numexpr(\normaltranslatednumber[#1]+1)/4\relax}
\starttext
\completecontent
\dorecurse{12}
{\chapter{Chapter #1}
\dorecurse{#1}{\input knuth\par}}
\stoptext
