Hello,
I have several problems with customizing the layout of chapter headers.
1. I make an index with command \completeindex, which generates numbered
\chapter. I want it to be a unnumbered \title. How to do this? I saw a
hardcoded \systemsuppliedchapter in core-reg.tex.
2. I want \titles to appear in table of contents. Up to now,
\completecontent worked fine for me.
3. I want my chapter headers to appear as:
Chapter 1 (small font)
One of My Chapters (big font)
--------------rule------------------
The simplest quick solution
\def\ChapterTitle#1#2{{\ssbfa #1}\crlf {\ssbfc #2} \crlf \hairline}
\setuphead[chapter][command=\ChapterTitle]
doesn't work. First, the \crlf is ignored. Second, the fonts are ignored
and replaced by default values, or the values I specify in style= option
of \setuphead.
4. I want Czech sorting in the index and Czech alphabet in indicators.
Any support in ConTeXt/texutil for this? I achieved proper sorting by
some hacks in texutil.pl, but that was an ugly solution.
Regards,
Jaroslav Snajdr

only \chapter etc end up in tocs, and their numbers turn on and off
depending on the sectionblock (frontmatter, maintext, appendices,
backmatter); you can define a sectionhead yourself, turn off the number and
add the associated list to the toc (is in manual)

style=\ss
textstyle=\bfa
numberstyle=\bfc

if i'm right david antos made czech sorting rules, but i'm not sure if
everything is already in the current context (i know i should know -) i
shifted around so many mails and code that i have to have a close look

Perhaps by placing your own chapter and use \placeindex?

Put things in a \vbox (or frame) something like:
\framed[frame=off]{#1\par\#2}
untested code, just to give you an idea.

I'm afraid this is the only solution, but perhaps Hans has a better one.

if you want a multiline framed test, you need to set align=normal (or
otherwise)

Not me, but Tom Hudec. I'm nearly sure it is not in the current version.
(Do you want me to send you Tom's files, Hans?)

If the problem of sorting refers to what we call in America a
back-of-book index then Xindy has a fairly complete solution.
So what would be needed is a macro to write-immediate the index
item to a file, and another set of macros (like those in eplain)
to read them back in again. Since Xindy already exists it should not
be necessary to reinvent the wheel. All the heavy lifting is already
done in Xindy :-)
I may work on this just for the exercise.
Of course Xindy is a bit beta-ish but that should be no problem for
dedicated TeX hackers :-)

ok, after you've checked that things still work ok -)
