Why are endnotes not working with ConTeXt-SBL?

Why are endnotes not working with ConTeXt-SBL?

[Joel via ntg-context]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1401 bytes --]

I am using the ConTeXt-SBL package for citations. I need to move my footnotes to the end of each article.

According to the manual, I can suppress the placement of footnotes using two lines of code. I've added these to my minimal working code, placing \setupnote[footnote][location=none] in the header and  \placenotes[footnote] where I want the endnotes to appear. It complains this error:
"Undefined control sequence \doifendswithpunctelse"
What did I do wrong?
--Joel
Code follows:

\usemodule[publ-imp-sbl]
\startbuffer [bib]

@Article{na2006,
title={Volcanoes \word{of} New Mexico},
year={2006},
journal={New Mexico Earth Matters},

Joel,

You may not have done anything wrong; this may be an issue with
ConTeXt-SBL. In my code for the btx:sbl:cite:footnote setup in
publ-imp-sbl.mkvi, I added a comment to this effect:

```
\startsetups btx:sbl:cite:footnote
  \removeunwantedspaces

\doifinstring{\btxparameter{punct}}{\btxparameter{autopunctuation}}{\btxparameter{punct}}
  \begingroup
  \letbtxparameter{punct}\empty % don't pass the trailing punctuation down
to the inline setup
  \let\doifendswithpunctelse\btx_sbl_doifendswithpunctelse % why is this
necessary? For some reason, \btx_sbl_doifendswithpunctelse is not
recognized within the footnote environment...
  \startfootnote
    \Word{\fastsetup{btx:sbl:cite:inline}}% capitalize the first word in
the footnote (needed to render "Ibid." and "Idem" correctly)
    % Add a closing period, unless the righttext ends with punctuation
    \doifendswithpunctelse{\btxparameter{righttext}} {
      \removeunwantedspaces
    } {
      \removeunwantedspaces
      \btxperiod
    }
  \stopfootnote
  \endgroup

\doifnotinstring{\btxparameter{punct}}{\btxparameter{autopunctuation}}{\btxparameter{punct}}
\stopsetups
```

I define the \btx_sbl_doifendswithpunctelse macro earlier in the module.
Initially, when I tried to invoke this macro within the \startfootnote ...
\stopfootnote environment (to conditionally add a period at the end of a
footnote citation if it does not have a righttext ending with punctuation),
I got the same error you got, but for \btx_sbl_doifendswithpunctelse. I
wasn't sure why this was happening, so I tried defining a new
\doifendswithpunctelse macro. Unfortunately, based on your e-mail, it looks
like this doesn't actually fix the problem.

Any help from other developers would be appreciated here! Unfortunately, I
don't have a MWE replicating the problem on hand at the moment.

Re: Why are endnotes not working with ConTeXt-SBL?

[Joey McCollum via ntg-context]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 5589 bytes --]

A reasonable solution for the time being would be to check if the
righttext argument is empty, and add a final period in the footnote only if
it is not (with the assumption being that the user would provide
punctuation in any righttext for footnote/endnote citations). I've pushed
the following change to the GitHub repo, if you'd like to pull and use it:

```
% Inline footnote citation setup (with intelligent trailing punctuation
replacement)
\startsetups btx:sbl:cite:footnote
  \removeunwantedspaces

\doifinstring{\btxparameter{punct}}{\btxparameter{autopunctuation}}{\btxparameter{punct}}
  \begingroup
  \letbtxparameter{punct}\empty % don't pass the trailing punctuation down
to the inline setup
  \startfootnote
    \Word{\fastsetup{btx:sbl:cite:inline}}% capitalize the first word in
the footnote (needed to render "Ibid." and "Idem" correctly)
    % Add a closing period if there is no righttext
    \doif{\btxparameter{righttext}}{\empty} {
      \btxperiod
    }
  \stopfootnote
  \endgroup

\doifnotinstring{\btxparameter{punct}}{\btxparameter{autopunctuation}}{\btxparameter{punct}}
\stopsetups
```

This should allow your script to compile, but unfortunately, it doesn't
seem to make endnotes work, at least not when I try it. For some reason,
the macro \Word{\fastsetup{btx:sbl:cite:inline}} is expanding to nothing
inside the \startfootnote ... \stopfootnote environment. I have no idea why
this is happening, so any ideas are appreciated.

Re: Why are endnotes not working with ConTeXt-SBL?

[Joey McCollum via ntg-context]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 7289 bytes --]

This actually seems to be rooted in a more general problem with the
publications support module. Why does invoking the fastsetup for citations
work within the default footnote setup, but not within endnotes flushed via
\placenotes[footnote]? If I modify the original MWE to use ConTeXt's
default btx rendering, I get the same error:

```
\startbuffer [bib]

@Book{clark1989,
author = {Clark, William},
title = {Railroads \word{and} railroad towns \word{in} New Mexico},
publisher = {New Mexico Magazine},
year = {1989},
address = {Albuquerque, New Mexico},
isbn = {9780937206126}
}

\stopbuffer

\usebtxdataset[bib.buffer]

\setupbtx[dataset=default]

\setupnote[footnote][location=none] % commenting out this line will produce
footnotes that expand the citation correctly

\starttext

   \input knuth
    \cite[alternative=footnote][clark1989]
    \page
    \placenotes[footnote]

    \startchapter[title=Bibliography]
        \placelistofpublications
    \stopchapter

\stoptext
```

If it helps, the relevant code in publications support is the following
block in publ-imp-cite.mkvi:

```
\startsetups \s!btx:\s!cite:footnote
    \startfootnote
        \fastsetup{btx:cite:entry}
    \stopfootnote
\stopsetups
```

The \fastsetup{btx:cite:entry} doesn't expand to anything if the footnote
is flushed as an endnote via \placenotes[footnote]. Does anyone have any
idea why this happens and how to fix it?
