Re: How to get the number of lines of a paragraph?

[Wei-Wei Guo <wwguocn@gmail.com>]

Hi Wolfgang,

I tried many ways, but could not make the following effect:

   Title Head: Here is text, blur blur blur blur blur blur
               -------------------------------------------
               blur blur blur blur
               -------------------------------------------

I tried \starttabulate, \starttable, \setupTABLE, and \definedescription
with \underline{} and \startunderline.

- Tabulate will get error.
- Table do not show underline.
- Natural table displays the underline with only half length as the text
   line's. And the vertical positions are also not right.
- Description seems more promising, but the head will be about one line
   height higher than the text with underline (I use location=left).

Could you help me with it?
