issue with \startattachment...\stopattachment

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Dear list,

I have the following sample:

    \setupinteraction[state=start]
    \starttext
    \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
    \startattachment
        [http://pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/xtables-mkiv.pdf]
    Attached file.
    \stopattachment
    Attached on \currentdate.
    \stopTEXpage
    \stoptext

I have a question: shouldn’t be “Attached file.” typeset on the main text?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

No because

\startattachment
...
\stopattachment

is the same as

\startbuffer[...]
...
\stopbuffer

\attachment[buffer=...]

where you combine the buffer and \attachment in a single construct.

This does also mean the argument you pass to \startattachment is wrong.

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang.

I thought it could be used as a kind of link.

Of course, I was thinking of something different.

Many thanks for your help,
