Re: [NTG-context] registers: how can I place a command around the whole of the page numbers of an index term?

      This is a more polite version, that lets you restore the original
macros.

\let\origstartregisterpages=\startregisterpages%
\let\origstopregisterpages=\stopregisterpages%
\def\setupregisterpagescommand#1{%
  \unexpanded\def\startregisterpages{\origstartregisterpages#1\bgroup }
  \unexpanded\def\stopregisterpages{\egroup\origstopregisterpages}}
\def\resetregisterpagescommand{%
  \let\startregisterpages=\origstartregisterpages%
  \let\stopregisterpages=\origstopregisterpages}

\setupregister[index][n=1,alternative=A]

\starttext
\CONTEXT\index{\ConTeXt}
\page
\LATEX\index{\LaTeX}
\page
\CONTEXT\index{\ConTeXt}
\page
\setupregisterpagescommand{\wordright}
\placeindex
\page
\resetregisterpagescommand
\placeindex
\stoptext

btw, Hans, are you going to add an option to \setupregister? :)
