Hi, Is there a way to have something like \indenting[hang] ? With the first line not indented, but the second and following lines? First I thought this is what is ment by \indenting[next], but \indenting[next] seems to be exactly the same as \indenting[first], is this right? Always happy for replies, Steffen

kind of tricky, since settings to hangindent and alike are forgotten when the setup is followed by an empty line; there is \starthanging ... \stophanging now but ... if we can assume that users start tagging their paragraphs with \bpar .. \epar i can imagine that we provide something \indenting [hang], so the question is: are you willing to tag Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------

but ... if we can assume that users start tagging their paragraphs with \bpar .. \epar i can imagine that we provide something \indenting [hang], so the question is: are you willing to tag
imo, the question is: what has hanging to do with indenting? Aren't these things completely different matters? If yes, please don't spoil \indenting with that. \setuphanging already exists, an option 'atbpar=on' (or something more pleasant) should suit the needs IMO better. Jens
