Re: [NTG-context] context.labeltext(...)

Hi Luigi, hm, did not know this one. Still I can not see that this is going to fit in my situation. I refer to may other mail I sent a minute ago. - The thing is, that the document I am building should be multilingual and therefore I need at the lua-end the lowercase text which should be made first-letter-uppercase at the moment it is typeset.

Hi all,

experimenting with context.labeltext...

My question is how can I tweak the context.labeltext(text) command at the lua-side to make ConTeXt to typeset the labeltext starting with an uppercase letter? e.g. if "text" contains "january" to display "January"? And if text is foo you want Foo ? In char-ini.lua, among others, there is function characters.upper(str) local new, n = { }, 0 for u in utfvalues(str) do n = n + 1 new[n] = ucchars[u] end return concat(new) end The idea is to take the first character from characters.upper(str), and all but not first from str and then join them using concat.
