Hi Folks,
If sections are just lists, and lists can be sorted, how can I sort a list
of sections?
My actual goal is to generate an 'index' that is made up of section
headings.
Here's my attempt that does not work.
\setuphead[section][number=no ]
% This was a guess at how I might be able to sort sections. I was wrong :-)
\definesorting[section][sections]
\setupsorting[sections][criterium=all]
% I thought something like this might work too
\definesorting[wahs]
\definesorting[wah][wahs][\getmarking[section]][\getmarking[section]]
\starttext
placelist (not sorted, as you would expect):
\placelist[section]
\blank
placelistofsorts (doesn't render anything. My guess was wrong)
\placelistofsorts[wahs]
Sections start here:
\startsection[title={Beta}]
Hello
\startsection[title={Alpha}]
World
\stoptext
Thank you for your time. I really appreciate it.
Kerry

here's one that does ...
\setuphead[section][number=no]
\starttext
\startchapter[title=foo]
\placelist[section][criterium=local,order=title]
\startsection[title={Beta}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
\startsection[title={Alpha}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
\startsection[title={Gamma}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
\stopchapter
\stoptext
it's an experimental feature already present for a while but probably
unknown

Thanks Hans. For the sake of any future users who may have stumbled across
this post I want to point out that if you want the list of sections to
appear at the *end *of your document you need to use "criterium=previous"
\placelist[section][criterium=previous,order=title]

Try this extended example to see the difference:
\setuphead[section][number=no]
\starttext
\startchapter[title=foo]
\placelist[section][criterium=local,order=title]
\startsection[title={Beta}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
\startsection[title={Alpha}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
\stopchapter
\startchapter[title=bar]
\placelist[section][criterium=local,order=title]
\startsection[title={Alpha}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
\startsection[title={Delta}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
\stopchapter
\startchapter[title=indices]
First local:
\placelist[section][criterium=local,order=title]
Now previous:
\placelist[section][criterium=previous,order=title]
\stopchapter
\stoptext

I get no difference using criterium=previous versus criterium=local.
