Hi,
In the underneath example, how do you get each word replaced by an underline
?
Or, if not possible, underlined word groups with correct underline breaks
for multi-line phrases.
\def\UnderlineA#1%
{\underbars{#1}}
\def\UnderlineB#1%
{\underbars{\phantom{#1}}}
%{\underbar{\phantom{#1}}}
\definetextbackground[underline][%
location=text,
alternative=1,
background=,
frame=off]
\def\UnderlineC{%
\groupedcommand
{\starttextbackground[underline]}
{\stoptextbackground}}
\starttext
Thus, I came to \UnderlineA{the conclusion} that the designer of a new
system \UnderlineA{must not only be the implementer and first} large--scale
user; the designer should also write the first user manual.
Thus, I came to \UnderlineB{the conclusion} that the designer of a new
system \UnderlineB{must not only be the implementer and first} large--scale
user; the designer should also write the first user manual.
Thus, I came to \UnderlineC{the conclusion} that the designer of a new
system \UnderlineC{must not only be the implementer and first} large--scale
user; the designer should also write the first user manual.
\stoptext
Thanks,
Alan

Ahoi,
A finishing touch question...
How do you cut off underbar parts which exceed \textwidth ?
\showframe
\setuplayout[width=7cm]
\def\doUnderlineD#1%
{\bgroup
\setbox\scratchbox\hbox{#1}%
\underbar{\hskip\wd\scratchbox}\space
\egroup}
\def\UnderlineD#1%
{\processseparatedlist[#1][ ]\doUnderlineD\removeunwantedspaces}
\starttext
\UnderlineD{aaaaaaaaaaaa bbbb cccccccccc ddddddddddddd eeeeeeeee
vvvvvvvvvv wwwwwww xxxxxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyyyy zzzzzzz}
\stoptext
Thanks in advance.
Alan
