Re: [NTG-context] simpleslides help needed

Yes, indeed the information is there. What makes the wiki sometime impenetrable is that doing a search, even a Google search, with keyword based or topic based queries rather than command based queries leads to varying results. You know what you want to do; you just don't know which commands will lead you to the result. Also just to clarify, as is my habit, I did search the wiki, and in this case I had even looked repeatedly at the hints. I just didn't catch the distinction in my own coding. I guess the trick is to know what commands one should hone in on ;). Regards. On 12-07-24 07:44 AM, Sietse Brouwer wrote:

Now, I don't know whether there should be a difference in behaviour, [between \quotation and \startquotation], but there definitely is.

This is deliberate: \quotation is for inline quotations, while \startquotation is for block quotations. Compare \math and \startmath.

I completely understand that people have gotten into a habit of not looking up commands on the wiki; there was So Much Blankness on the command pages, so why bother? By now, though, we have reached the stage that looking up a basic command, at least, has a good chance of success. So perhaps people could slowly start looking at the wiki command reference again? The answer to quotation/startquotation, at least, was sitting right there. :-)
