grouped sections and footnotes

grouped sections and footnotes

[Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد]

Hi Hans,

I am using a module -- non-distributed as far as I know -- created by  
Wolfgang. It provides grouped sectioning and footnotes:

====startstop-t.tex======
\unprotect

\def\????se{@@@@se}

\def\definegroupedsection[#1]%
   {\setvalue{\e!start#1}[##1]%
      {\getparameters[\????se#1][\c!ref=,\c!title=,##1]%
    \getvalue{#1}[\getvalue{\????se#1\c!ref}]{\getvalue{\????se#1\c!title}}}
    \setvalue{\e!stop#1}{\relax}}

\def\definegroupednote[#1]%
   {\edef\currentnote{#1}%
    \def\dostartcurrentnote[##1][##2]{\setnote[##1][##2]\bgroup\ignorespaces}%
    \setvalue{\e!start\currentnote}{\dodoubleempty\dostartcurrentnote[#1]}%
    \setvalue{\e!stop\currentnote}{\removeunwantedspaces\egroup\noteparameter\c!next}}

\definegroupedsection[title]
\definegroupedsection[chapter]
\definegroupedsection[section]
\definegroupedsection[subsection]
\definegroupedsection[subsubsection]
\definegroupednote   [footnote]

\setupfootnotes[next=\autoinsertnextspace]

\protect

\starttext
\starttitle[title=Title]
\stoptitle
\startchapter[title=Chapter]
\startsection[title=Section]
\input knuth
Text
\startfootnote[nabiyy]
A footnote
\stopfootnote

\startsubsection[title=Subsection]
Text
\startfootnote
A footnote. See \in{footnote}[nabiyy]

=========================

Question:

a) Have you added support for grouped sectioning and footnotes in mkiv yet?
b) Does the above code seem safe for mkiv?
c) (For Wolfgang:) Has the above code been updated or extended etc. yet?

For long documents this kind of grouping has become indispensable (easy  
code-folding etc.)

Best wishes
Idris

there are sectionworlds (core-swd) but i'm not sure if i will extend 
that in mkii (at some point i will freeze mkii in the sense that no new 
fundamental extensions will take place, only fixes and trivial extensions)

i'm working on a new sectioning mechanisms for mkiv (way more info to be 
carried around) but i need to make sure that it also provides proper 
downward compatibility (such mechanisms are rather interwoven with 
lists, numbering etc)

> b) Does the above code seem safe for mkiv?

looks harmless enough to be safe

i hav eno problems with grouped notes in the core, but it need to be 
done differently

- the proposed code assumes an already defined note
- best do this combined with the normal definition

so .. in core-not we then have:

   ....
   ....
   \unexpanded\setvalue{\currentnote}{\setnote[#1]}%
   \unexpanded\setvalue{\currentnote\v!text}{\setnotetext[#1]}%
 
\unexpanded\setvalue{\e!start\currentnote}{\dodoubleempty\dostartcurrentnote[#1]}%
   \unexpanded\setvalue{\e!stop\currentnote}{dostopcurrentnote}}
   \setupnote[\currentnote][#2]}

\def\dostartcurrentnote[#1][#2]%
   {\setnote[#1][#2]\bgroup\ignorespaces}

\def\dostopcurrentnote
   {\removeunwantedspaces\egroup\noteparameter\c!next}

Do you want to criticise my code :-)

No, I never extended the code because I never used it myself.

Right but there is no other way to do this in a module.

i wouldn't dare; but given that it was a few lines and that i could not 
grep the do* macros i was willing to take the gamble -)

(the definition code is in the beta now, but in a way that each note 
gets the start/stop automatically)
