I am currently writing in French some ConTeXt documentation. That's why I'm looking for some help about coding footnotes within a 'critical apparatus' work, like the sample given here below (which is given by Maieul Rouquette through its release of reledmac's LaTeX macro). Let me know, please, some documentation resources on this topic.
My question is as follow : how can ConTeXt produce the same printing as the one given by LaTeX ? I am not looking for a very translation in ConTeXt of this file given in LaTeX ! A similar sample (where different levels of notes are managed as in this LaTeX file) will be perfect.
Hi Jean-Pierre, here you have a basic sample: \mainlanguage[la] \setuplayout[header=0cm, footer=0cm] \setuplinenumbering[step=5] \setupnotations[alternative=serried] \definelinenote[aNote] \definelinenote[bNote][n=2] \definelinenote[cNote][n=3] \definelinenote[dNote][paragraph=yes] \def\ANote#1#2{#1\aNote{#1] #2}} \def\BNote#1#2{#1\bNote{#1] #2}} \def\CNote#1#2{#1\cNote{#1] #2}} \def\DNote#1#2{#1\dNote{#1] #2}} \setupbodyfont[palatino, 7.8pt] \starttext \start\en \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{9}% only to repeat the following paragraph {Cum defensionum \CNote{laboribus}{first note} senatoriisque muneribus aut omnino aut magna ex parte essem aliquando liberatus, rettuli me, Brute, te hortante maxime ad ea studia, quae retenta animo, remissa temporibus, longo intervallo intermissa revocavi, et cum omnium artium, quae ad rectam vivendi viam pertinerent, \ANote{ratio}{second note} et disciplina studio sapientiae, quae philosophia dicitur, contineretur, hoc mihi Latinis litteris \DNote{inlustrandum}{third note} putavi, non quia \BNote{philosophia}{fourth note} Graecis et litteris et doctoribus percipi non posset, sed meum semper iudicium fuit omnia nostros aut invenisse per se sapientius quam Graecos aut accepta ab illis fecisse meliora, quae quidem digna statuissent, in quibus elaborarent.\par} \stoplinenumbering \stoptext I hope it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
