Hans and Zeljko,

Thanks for your answers to my problem, this is exactly what I need :-)

I am working on an intermediate-sized documentation project. Initially I planned to have a HTML version for on-screen interactive perusing, and a LaTeX version for printing. But I liked the looks of ConTeXt-generated documents, together with PDF output so much that I'm right now changing all. This includes a Perl script that reads the original HTML files and writes ConTeXt which already works, more or less. Now I'm trying to learn more ConTeXt to make it better.

By the way, I wonder if the source for the interactive Context manual ("Context, an excursion" by Ton Otten & Hans Hagen) can be had? The examples I downloaded from the Pragma site are fine but rather simple, I'd love to have a big, fully working example.

Bye and thanks
Tom
