Ahoi,
A finishing touch question...
How do you cut off underbar parts which exceed \textwidth ?
\showframe
\setuplayout[width=7cm]
\def\doUnderlineD#1%
{\bgroup
\setbox\scratchbox\hbox{#1}%
\underbar{\hskip\wd\scratchbox}\space
\egroup}
\def\UnderlineD#1%
{\processseparatedlist[#1][ ]\doUnderlineD\removeunwantedspaces}
\starttext
\UnderlineD{aaaaaaaaaaaa bbbb cccccccccc ddddddddddddd eeeeeeeee
vvvvvvvvvv wwwwwww xxxxxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyyyy zzzzzzz}
\stoptext
Thanks in advance.
Alan
