(critical edition) nesting linenotes

(critical edition) nesting linenotes

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Dear Thomas, Luigi and Hans,

my second sample might be related to the first one. But I’m not sure it
is a bug.

Here is the code:

\setuppapersize[A8]
\newcounter\MyCounter
 \def\CritApp#1#2{\increment\MyCounter%
 \startlinenote[Varia:\MyCounter]{#1] #2}#1%
 \prewordbreak\stoplinenote[Varia:\MyCounter]}

\starttext
\startlinenumbering
\startlinenote[one]{hyphenated}this is a test on
\startlinenote[two]{with nested
linenote}hyphenation\prewordbreak\stoplinenote[two]\stoplinenote[one]

\CritApp{this is a test on \CritApp{hyphenation}{nested linenote: bad
line number}}{not hyphenated}
\stoplinenumbering
\stoptext

A command such as \CritApp above is intended to generate all linenote
references automagically.

It works fine, but I cannot nest \CritApp linenotes. The problem is in
within this line:

    \startlinenote[Varia:\MyCounter]{#1] #2}#1%

If I replace "{#1] #2}#1" with {#2}#1, nesting \CritApp linenotes,
everything works as expected.

Is this a bug?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

you need to separate cases:

(1) some macro that uses grouping with nested notes
(2) hyphenation

here is an example of the first case

\setuppapersize
   [A8][A7]

\setuplayout
   [location=middle]

\unexpanded\def\doCritApp#1#2#3%
   {\startlinenote[#1]{#2 #3}(#2)\stoplinenote[#1]}

\newcounter\MyCounter
\unexpanded\def\CritApp
   {\doglobal\increment\MyCounter
    \normalexpanded{\doCritApp{Varia:\MyCounter}}}

% \setupnotes[linenote][split=verystrict,scope=page]

\starttext
     \startlinenumbering
         \startlinenote[one]{note one}
             one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one
                 \startlinenote[two]{note two}
                     two two two two two two two
                 \stoplinenote[two]
             one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one
         \stoplinenote[one]
         \par
         \CritApp
           {(one one one one one one)
            \CritApp
              {(two two)}
              {two two two two two two}
            (one one one one one one)}
           {one one one one one one}
     \stoplinenumbering
\stoptext

so, in your macro you need to make sure that the counter (1) gets 
incremented global and (2) gets expanded in time.

Many thanks for your help, Hans.

I know that it works, but I cannot understand what it actually the above
commands do. Where could I find what expansion is? (Sorry for the basic
question, but I don’t know what it is.)

Many thanks for your help again,


Pablo
