I was wondering if anyone who works with the verbatim environments has tried to set comments in a different style. It would be ideal to be able to set comments in \tf text font or some variant. I'm not really interested in colors at the moment.
\starttext
\setuptyping[option=TEX]
\starttyping test test %%\ N {\sl test} \stoptyping
\stoptext
So, %%\ triggers some kind of mode (see verb-ini.tex for details and examples)
Thanks, Hans, I was starting to look at that, and I thought that the mode that it triggered meant that all I had to do was \naturaltextexttrue (but I still don't understand your \newif mechanism really.) That turned out to be wrong. All I needed to do the initial bit of what I wanted was to do this: \setuptyping[text=yes,ccommand=\rm] ...which was a lot simpler than I expected from the manual ["icommand (for identifiers), vcommand (for variables) and ccommand parameters (for the rest)."] I *think* I've learned enough from core-ver, verb-ini, verb-pl, and verb- js that I think I can fake my own mode. The above may well be enough.
Another way is:
\setuptyping[option=slanted]
\starttyping test test <<test>> test \stoptyping
I looked at that earlier, and my problem was getting it to trigger in included \typefile's. Thanks, adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
