Hi all,
some specification requests that a numbered list start at
arbitrary counter values. I'm using the following line after
“\startitemize[...]” to accomplish this:
··8<·····························································
\setnumber[itemgroup:itemize]{42}
··8<·····························································
Now I'd rather avoid this kind of brute interference with context
internals so I'd like to ask whether there is a recommended
high-level mechanism that I could use instead?
Thanks for your help,
Philipp

Great, that's exactly what I was looking for. Now that we're at
it: actually the spec wants this on per-item basis. This would
amount to having another (apart from the reference) argument to
“\item”, e.g.
···8<····························································
\startitemize[n]
\item[n=1] foo
\item[n=2] bar
\item[n=3] foo
\item[n=5] bar
\item[n=8] foo
\item[n=13] bar
\stopitemize
···8<····························································
Regardless of if there's a practical use for that: is this
possible as well without resorting to repeated \setnumber'ing?
