Hi list,
The following example shows a lettrine that stylizes a quotation mark:
\setuphead[chapter][
after={\placeinitial},
page=no,
]
\starttext\chapter{Harriet Tubman}
"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within
you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to
change the world.\chapter{Eleanor Roosevelt}
Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds
discuss people.\stoptext
Without changing the text itself, how would you make the lettrine stylize
the E in Every while making the quotation mark retain the body font (i.e.,
much smaller and hang to the left, possibly protruding into the margin)?
For reference: https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/609544/2148
Thank you!

Henri Menke provided a partial solution:
\defineinitial[two][method={first,auto}]
\setuphead[chapter][
after={\placeinitial[two]},
page=no,
]
\starttext
\chapter{Harriet Tubman}
"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within
you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to
change the world.
\chapter{Eleanor Roosevelt}
Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds
discuss people.
\stoptext
However, the leading quotation mark is gobbled. Is there any generic way of
detecting a leading quotation mark while keeping initial caps on the first
character?
Thank you!

Not really generic, and maybe not what you want, but there is this:
\chapter{Eleanor Roosevelt}
\setupinitial[text={"G}]
reat minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds
discuss people.
