Re: [NTG-context] setupregister with realpage?

23 Sep 2022

      Thank you, Hans! This works, I get all the correct page references!

I didn't know about cont-new.mkxl to temporarily store "hacks". I assume the file is updated with each release? Is there a way to store local hacks, e.g., in texmf-local? I could not find "cont-loc" (maybe it's not a file).

For future reference, this is how I am using the hack:

\def\MyRegisterPageCommand#1{\currentregisterrealpage}

\setupregister[MyRegisterA][pagecommand=\MyRegisterPageCommand]
\setupregister[MyRegisterB][pagecommand=\MyRegisterPageCommand]
...

Dear list,
\setuplist has the convenient option [pagenumber=realpage]
\setupregister has not (yet).
How can I get the realpagenumber instead of the userpagenumber for the register indices?
I tried
\def\MyPageCommand#1{\realpagenumber}
\setupregister[MyIndex][pagecommand=\MyPageCommand]
but this prints only the current (although real) page number.
you can try with this in cont-new.mkxl
\pushoverloadmode \unprotect
\let\currentregisterrealpage\!!zerocount % todo: more general accessor
\permanent\protected\def\withregisterpagecommand#1#2#3#4%
 {\ifcase#3\relax
    {\tt [entry\space not\space flushed]}%
  \else
    \def\currentregisterpageindex{#2}%
    \def\currentregisterrealpage{#3}%
    \iflocation
\strc_references_goto_internal{\applyprocessor{#1}{\registerparameter\c!pagecommand{#4}}}[internal(#2)]%
    \else
      \applyprocessor{#1}{\registerparameter\c!pagecommand{#4}}%
    \fi
  \fi}
\protect \popoverloadmode
which sets \currentregisterrealpage
