Hi,
is it possible to define a block, where lines are automatically formatted differently? For example: first line in caps, second in bold, others normal.
Is this possible? And how?
My #1 "Wish List" item for ConTeXt is /allowing/ "stylesheets" at the paragraph level. That would allow closer correspondence with what CSS/CSS3, Scribus, ODT, EPUB3 &al do and make it much easier to write transformation scripts whether XSLT, lua code, Perl code or whatever favorite tool one wishes to use.
I envision something like (psuedo code):
\setupstylesheet[myparagraphstyle] [font=AccanthisADF, fontsize=12pt, fontstyle=italic, alignment=justified, frame=no, color=blue, width=\textwidth, &c .... ]
\starttext
\startparagraph[style=mystylesheet] \input tufte \stopparagraph
\input knuth
\stoptext
framedtext already does most of this (except that it makes the paragraphs unbreakable across pages). I don't remember if backgrounds has all the relevant keys. Aditya
