general syntax for startparagraph command

general syntax for startparagraph command

[Jeroen]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 324 bytes --]

Dear list members,

I am trying to get the following with the 1 elevated and 2 above the =
character. The square brackets and all in between I would like italic and
OPT below both terms.

*\startparagraph [.1..] [..,..2=..,..] ..**.\stopparagraph*
Would anybody be able to help. Would Metapost be needed here?
Thanks
Jeroen

When you look at the command definition in setup-en.pdf you can two 
lines below the command which refer to the two arguments.


                   1         2
\startparagraph [...] [..,..=..,..] ... \stopparagraph
                  OPT       OPT

1 NAME
2 inherits: \setupparagraph


The NAME for the first arguments means you can the pass of a named
instance, such a instance can be created with the \defineparagraph
command, e.g. \defineparagraph [bold] [style=bold].

The inherits: ... means you can pass options from the \setupparaph
command, e.g. \startparagraph [color=blue]. For get a list of all
possible options for this argument take a look at \setupparagraph.

Many thanks. Is there also a simple way to place a 2 above the = character
as the definition does.

Thanks
Jeroen

The sample ways are:

\starttext

\setupruby[style=]

= \ruby{=}{*}

\blank

= \framed[location=bottom,align=middle,frame=off,offset=0pt]{*\\=}

\stoptext


The numbers in the command reference are positioned with a different
low level TeX method where you use a box to change the vertical and
horizontal position of the box.

You can find more information about this method (search for raise/lower)
on books about plain TeX [1,2] or Hans new manual about low level box
command [3].

[2] https://ctan.org/pkg/impatient
[3] lowlevel-boxes.pdf (included in the context minimals)

In case you’re wondering about the macro name:
