Hi all,
I want some numbers to appear in the paragraph. It's for a commentary,
so the numbering isn't continuous, but pretty arbitrary. The problem
is, I need two sets of numbers (for sections and subsections), and I
want both in the margin, like so:
1 1 Some text
3 More text
4 Even more
3 1 And more
2 and so on
5 Sometimes, there are sections without subsections
So far, I have succeeded in doing this with some low-level trickery by
defining two commands, LEVELONE and LEVELTWO:
\def\LEVELONE#1 {\dontleavehmode\llap{#1\kern1.8em \null}}
\def\LEVELTWO#1 {\dontleavehmode\llap{\tfx #1\kern1em \null}}
(I need to gobble the space after the command, that's why I included
it in the \def). However, I'm wondering if there's a more ConTeXt-like
way of doing this, since my next project will be to do this for xml
files. I had tried with \inmargin[1] and \inmargin[2], but that didn't
quite do what I expected. Any thoughts on this?
All best
Thomas
