The following solution which adds two additional keys (pageleft and pageright) is cleaner because it doesn’t have to overload commands. \unprotect \unexpanded\def\startregisterpages {\begingroup \dostarttagged\t!registerpages\empty \useregisterstyleandcolor\c!pagestyle\c!pagecolor \registerparameter\c!pageleft} \unexpanded\def\stopregisterpages {\registerparameter\c!pageright \dostoptagged \endgroup} \protect \setupregister [index] [n=1, alternative=A, distance=0pt, pageleft=\wordright\bgroup, pageright=\egroup] \starttext \CONTEXT\index{\ConTeXt} \page \LATEX\index{\LaTeX} \page \CONTEXT\index{\ConTeXt} \page \placeindex \stoptext Wolfgang
MF mailto:massifr@fastwebnet.it 10. Mai 2018 um 12:35 This is a more polite version, that lets you restore the original macros.
\let\origstartregisterpages=\startregisterpages% \let\origstopregisterpages=\stopregisterpages% \def\setupregisterpagescommand#1{% \unexpanded\def\startregisterpages{\origstartregisterpages#1\bgroup } \unexpanded\def\stopregisterpages{\egroup\origstopregisterpages}} \def\resetregisterpagescommand{% \let\startregisterpages=\origstartregisterpages% \let\stopregisterpages=\origstopregisterpages}
\setupregister[index][n=1,alternative=A]
\starttext \CONTEXT\index{\ConTeXt} \page \LATEX\index{\LaTeX} \page \CONTEXT\index{\ConTeXt} \page \setupregisterpagescommand{\wordright} \placeindex \page \resetregisterpagescommand \placeindex \stoptext
btw, Hans, are you going to add an option to \setupregister? :) ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!
