Following Aditya’s recommendation on making a glossary with ConTeXt (https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/152248/make-a-glossary-with-context) and have looked through several older and newer manuals under “abbreviations” and into the source.
However, I cannot figure out if there is a simple way to define my own command to achieve the following:
\definesynonyms[glossary][glossaries][\fullgloss]%[#4]
% I wonder also what #4 is supposed to do?
\setupsynonyms[glossary][headstyle=bold]
\glossary[US]{United States}{The US is a country in the Americas.}
\glossary[UK]{United Kingdom}{The UK is a country in Europe.}
% CURRENT RESULT (guessing from what I understand from the source this is converted internally to):
\placelistofglossaries
\starttabulate[|||]
\NC {\bf United Kingdom} \NC The UK is a country in Europe. \NC \NR
\NC {\bf United States} \NC The US is a country in the Americas. \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
% DESIRED RESULT
\unexpanded\def\myglossary#1#2#3{{\bf #1}#2} % or similar
\placelistofglossaries[command=\myglossary]
{\bf United Kingdom.} The UK is a country in Europe. Nice would be even if
this could be indented at some point, but tastes may vary on
indention for sure.
{\bf United States.} The US is a country in the Americas.
% or using itemize etc.
I am aware that \placelistofsynonyms has a command=... option, but it doesn’t do anything for me. Also, the location=inmarigin option (which I suppose could be used to tweak the desired result in a way) stopped working in MKIV (?) and I can see in the source that it has a “fixed” assignment to location=left.
Any hints very welcome. :)
