I am trying to typeset old books and I chose to keep close to the original typography. ================= 1) It must work when starting from a new line as well as when starting from the middle of the current line. 2 different environments are allowed.
2) The environnement is wrapped in guillemets.
3a) There must be no extra space before the opening guillemet when starting from the middle of the current line.
3b) The must be no extra space after the closing guillemet.
4) The quote repetition symbol must appear in the beginning of every line, except the first one.
5) Paragraphs should be automatically indented. Manual indentation is bearable.
6a) When there is an indentation, the quote repetition symbol must be indented too.
6b) When the bloc starts on a new line, the opening guillemet must be indented.
7) The quote repetition symbol must be a setup parameter of the environment, or easily modifiable within the environment definition. (in the example images, it is a *closing* guillemet, but in other books it can be an *opening* guillemet).
8) This environment must work within footnotes too. =================
I just fortuitously learned on Luatex mailing list that it only took this command : \localleftbox{}
So, the quotation block would be :
================ \define\qbopen{«} \define\qbrep{»} \define\qbclose{»} \definestartstop [bloccite] [before=\qbopen~\begingroup\localleftbox{\qbrep~}, after=\endgroup~\qbclose] ================
Might need a bit of kerning to have all spaces look good, but basically, this is it. Just this...
Goodbye, Stéphane Goujet.
Perfect! Thank you. -- Rik
