Hi,
Thanks a lot to Taco for the very handy lettrine module.
How do you make it automatically drop cap the first word of each chapter ?

I don't think you can.

How about cooking up something with \setuphead[chapter][after=...] to
apply \lettrine to the first word or letter of the first paragraph ?
So far for the idea.
For the implementation I'm clueless...

In sofar as lay out is concerned, I use:
\lettrine{T}{\kap{\bf here is no}} such thing as `digital technology'.
This smoothes the gap between the first character and the normal type.
Automatiing that in terms of \setup will be even harder, I guess. But
then again, if your book has 20 chapters, you only need to do it 20
times ;-)

maybe we can let chapter into mychap, and define chapter as mychap+lettrine.
