Dear coterie, I have defined another section: \definehead [SubNote][subsection] \setuphead [SubNote][style=bold, number=no] Now I want to do a certain operation on the argument of \subnote whenever it appears in the TOC. The argument should appear in the main text as expected: \SubNote{My Note} but it should appear as {\operation My Note} in the TOC. Put another way, I want to change/operate upon the lemma that's passed to the TOC. Is there a way I can wrap all this up in the \setuphead command? If not, what's the workaround? (For the curious: My main text (including headings) is fully accented. I have a command, "\onovocalize" which strips away all the accents. I want all my TOC entries to be\onovocalize'ed without affecting the rest of the text and need to setup my heads to reflect this.)
