I have requirements similar to those of Stéphane Goujet to reproduce
the typography of earlier times, and I tried to adapt the code
presented in his note earlier today titled “Quotation blocs with
repetition symbol in the left column.”
The result of this attempt is the discovery of two issues with
linenumbering. I will present these in separate notes. This note
involves an unfortunate interaction with startnarrower. The other
problem involves bidi.
Both issues occur with the current 20140328 beta.
Placing one of the examples in Stéphane’s message into a
startnarrower environment results in a shift of the linenumbered
section to the left margin. As an example, replace his final
section with the following:
\setupnarrower[left=2cm,right=2cm]
\startnarrower[left,right]
Now, a quote block starting just there, {\bf in the middle of
a line}
({\bf space after colon is too big}):\startbloccitel\input
tufte
\input tufte
\stopbloccitel . This a bit of text at the end of the
quotation. It
{\bf seems fine}.
And let's call a {\bf footnote}\footnote{\startbloccitel\input
tufte
\input tufte
\stopbloccitel}. Unfortunately {\bf no quote repetition symbol
will
appear in it}.
\stopnarrower
