Subject: High-level command for translated names
Date: Sun, 30 Apr 2017 21:38:20 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2e2a759a-25aa-5f58-847d-b66d664ef0ca@gmail.com> (raw)

Dear list,

Inspired by this question on TeX.SX https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/367433

How can I get the translated names for chapter and section depending on the currently active language.  I know they are there in lang-txt.lua, but cannot be accessed via \labeltext.  One can access them through Lua but that doesn't seem so elegant.



\def\chaptername{%
  \ctxlua{%
    context(languages.data.labels.texts.chapter.labels["\currentlanguage"])}}

\starttext

\language[en] \chaptername

\language[de] \chaptername

\stoptext



Cheers,
Henri
