chars for appendix sections

chars for appendix sections

[Uwe Koloska]

Hello,

I just tried to make a document (equivalent to LaTeX article) with section 
as the highest sectioning command.  And I want the appendix sections marked 
with chars.  I followed the advice in the manual -- but still no chars.

What went wrong?

Here comes the simples testfile:

\setupsection
  [section-3]  % also tried sectionlevel-3
  [appendixconversion=Character, % Watch the capital
  previousnumber=no]

\starttext
\completecontent

\startbodymatter
\section{no. one}

\section{no. two}

\stopbodymatter

\startappendices
\section{Oh, no!}
\section{Help, \dots}
\stopappendices

\stoptext

Could you please help me (yeah, yeah, yeah yeaaaah)
Uwe

Looks like an interfacing problem. I'll have a look at it.

Well, it seems that this problem occured before ... and was solved ... but
undocumented ... mea culpa. 

\setupsection[section-3][appendix][conversion=...]

will work.

Meanwhile, this works:

\startsectionblockenvironment[appendix]
\setupsection
  [section-3]
  [conversion=Character,
   previousnumber=no]
\stopsectionblockenvironment

Greetings,

indeed -) 

also, there are some more conversion settings, also at the 'head' level
itself [needed for chinese]
