Setting up header text

Setting up header text

[cormullion]

I’m trying to use \setupheadertexts to set up the headers to a specification. Is it possible to insert text between the various ‘chapter/section’ keys? What I want is something like this:

| section           “Chapter “ chapternumber “-” chapter  |  |  “Chapter “ chapternumber “-” chapter              section |

where the “|” is a page edge, on a double-sided layout, and the “Chapter”s are literal strings, rather than the keys.

I’m not clear from the command description whether this is possible. If not, might a clever macro do it?

thanks

\setupheadertexts[{chapter: \getmarking[chapter]}]

Perfect, thanks.
