Re: [NTG-context] Place an annotation before it is defined

buffers (or blocks)

Buffers apparently can't be used before the content is defined, but it works for blocks (I never used them). Test: \defineblock [bar] \starttext buf: \getbuffer[foo] BBBBBBBBBBB \startbuffer[foo] buf: AAAAAAAAAAA \stopbuffer \useblocks [bar] DDDDDDDDDDD \beginbar block: CCCCCCCCCCC \endbar \stoptext Is there a reason why the blocks favour begin/end instead of start/stop? Looks weird somehow. Marco
