formatting verse

formatting verse

[Gary A. Tucker]

I've looked on the wiki and in the manuals for an equivalent to  
LaTeX's \begin{verse} environment. I found a macro in a file on the  
wiki, but the definition of it seems to be obsolete.

What I'm working on is converting a wedding service set using LaTeX  
and the booklet package over to ConTeX and its built-in Imposition  
features.

Hi Gary,

I do not know what this LATeX package is able to do. However in Context 
you can use
\startalignment[middle] %[left] or [right]
...
\stopalignment
You may play with
\startnarrower[left] %[3*left] [right] or whatever you want the 
indentation to be.
...
\stopnarrower
You can use
\starlines
...
\stoplines

Kind regrds

Willi
