Hi!
Is there are an easy way to get total number of pages/tables/figures etc.? \getnumber[table] of \getnumber[figure] returns 0, \getnumber[page] gives some irrelevant number. I've found command \totalnumberofpages, is there are something similar for others? It would be great to also automatically change the following word as in:
1 figure, but 2 figures
Is there support for that in ConTeXt?
No, but it is easy to define this on your own. To Hans: Is reading utilities not implemented in mkiv? The following works fine with mkii but not with mkiv.
in mkiv i load at everyjob time instead of everystarttext this should work (patch in core-uti.mkiv) but i wonder why i used everyjob % \to \everyjob \to \everystarttext
\def\noffigures {1}
\def\savenoffigures {\savecurrentvalue{\noffigures}{\getnumber[figure]}}
\appendtoks \savenoffigures \to \everystoptext
\def\shownoffigures {\noffigures\ % \doifelse{\noffigures}{1}{figure}{figures}}
\starttext
This text has \shownoffigures.
\dorecurse{10}{\placefigure{something}{} \input knuth \endgraf }
\stoptext
