blank page in doublesided mode

blank page in doublesided mode

[Alan Bowen]

In doublesided mode ConTeXt seems to insert a blank page at the end of 
a document when there is an odd number of printed pages. I have checked 
the English documentation and so far I have only found out how to force 
a page in order to produce an even paged document.  I have yet to come 
across anything that seems to show how to stop ConTeXt from adding a 
blank page. Any pointers will be very gratefully received.

\installpagebreakhandler{last}{}

Hans—

Many thanks. That does the trick very nicely.

Is there a manual or the like that I have missed which documents this 
command, \installpagebreakhandler, and others such as \useURL and 
\setupinteraction? (I am interested in the latter, because inserting a 
blue, underlined URL for email in my output has curiously enough turned 
by footnote numbers blue.)

All best, Alan

no, these commands are not in a manual, but one can find them in the source 
code; the \install.. ones are real low level; the 
\definepagebreak[whatever][yes] one is public.

Regarding the rest (some hints to play with):

\useURL	[context]	[http://www.pragma-ade.com]
\goto{Pragma ADE}[URL(context)]

\setupinteraction
   [state=start,
    color=black,
    style={\tf\underbars}]

\setupunderbar[alternative=c, rulecolor=blue] % underdots

Footnote numbers are interaction links, too. I don't know how to handle 
them different.
But you can switch off footnote interaction somehow AFAIK.
