Hi,
I know at least a few people use my letter module and I want to ask
them if they have a problem when I change the handling of appendices
like CC and postscript.
The current way to write them is
\startletter
[copy=...,
postscript=...]
...
\stopletter
and I want to change this in
\startletter
...
\CC{...} % or \copy{...}
\PS{...} % or \postscript{...}
\stopletter
As positive side effect of the new method would be to write
\startletter
\opening{...}
...
\closing{...}
\stopletter
as a alternative way to write the opening and closing text (the old
keyval
works too) but the appendices can be only handled in one way.
Wolfgang

Dear Wolfgang,
I use your module voor an association. I have no problem if you
change the CC and PS part.
Kind regards
Willi

No problem for me neither, but be careful with name-clashes: perhaps, Hans
will add macros \copy or \postscript in the future.
Cheers, Peter

I will use now \ps, \cc and \encl. I already dropped \copy because TeX
has a \copy primitive and both conflict with longer letter (>1 pages).

Hi,
I uploaded a new version with the appendices handling, here is a
example how
to use them. All of them are optional and will appear in the output in
the
order you write them in the text.
\usemodule[letter]
\starttext
\startletter
\input knuth
% To get a prefix for the postscript write 'PS:' in the text
% or use a labeltext, e.g. \setuplabeltext[en][letter:postscript=PS: ]
\ps{Postscript}
\cc{List of recipients}
\encl{Enclosed documents}
\stopletter
\stoptext
Wolfgang
