Question about chapter headings

Question about chapter headings

[Alasdair McAndrew]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 559 bytes --]

I'm trying to set up a chapter heading which looks like this:

Chapter 4

This is the fourth chapter

That is, there are two lines, one of which says "Chapter" followed by its
number, and the next which is the chapter title.  What is the easiest way to
do this?  I've tried

\def\chap#1#2{Chapter #1\crlf #2}

\setuphead[chapter][
       command=\chap,
       style=bfc,
       after={\blank[1cm]},
    ]

But this doesn't work (and nor do many other variations in the "chap"
command).  I'm a bit stymied here - and I'd welcome some advice.

Thanks,
Alasdair

Thanks very much!  (I'm embarrassed - I should have been able to work that
one out for myself...)

Use uppercase or camelcase for self defined command and the chapter string can be set with label texts.

\define[2]\ChapterCommand
  {\vbox{#1\crlf#2}}

\setuplabeltext[chapter=Chapter ]

\setuphead[chapter][command=\ChapterCommand]

or:

\defineheadplacement[MyHead][vertical]#1#2%
   {\vbox{Chapter #1\crlf #2}}

which helps the calling code to make some decisions
