How do you access the first paragraph of each chapter ?
... to calculate its number of lines ?
If not possible with ConTeXt commands, is this possible with LuaTeX commands?
Maybe redefine \par to do something like
\def\nooflines{\prevgraf}\let\par=\oldpar
where previously you hd \let\oldpar=\par
I don't think this will work without problems for a complete document. Enclosing each paragraph with \bpar ... \epar allows you to count the paragraph number since the last chapter and you can save \prevgraf at the end with twopass data for the next run. But wouldn't a direct \lettrine at the begin of the first paragraph be easier. Wolfgang
