Hi Wolfgang,

may I ask two additional questions?

1. From what I see on dev-context, there's a problem right now, so it 
may be better to wait a bit with these commands. Correct?

2. What would be the equivalent in lua? I'm looking for something like this:

function chaptertest(s)
   if chapter.structurevariable == "A" then
     context(s) context(" is in chapter A!")
   else
     context(s) context(" is in a different chapter!")
   end
end

Is this possible? What would be the correct call for my pseudo-code 
chapter.structurevariable (could be either to the chaptermark or to the 
chapter title, I just need something to test against).

Thanks a lot

Thomas
