Styling of included buffers or files
Hi all, I am currently writing a text where I want to include text snippets either by including files or including buffers. What is the best way to style all these included buffers? I know that I can do something like this: \startcolumns \getbuffer[Muenchen] \stopcolumns Or do something with \defineparagraph Is it somehow possible to apply styles to all buffers that gets included via \getbuffer by defining a special getbuffer-style? TIA juh

\setupbuffer has before and after keys which can be used. Example: \setupbuffer [before=\blank\blackrule\startnarrower\BufferStyle, after=\stopnarrower\blackrule\blank] %% alternatively define custom buffers \definebuffer [foobar] \setupblackrules [width=1cm, height=1pt, color=gray] \definehighlight [BufferStyle] [style=smallitalic, color=blue] \startbuffer \samplefile{knuth} \stopbuffer \starttext \samplefile{knuth} \getbuffer \samplefile{knuth} \stoptext Marco

\definehighlight [BufferStyle] [style=smallitalic, color=blue]
\startbuffer \samplefile{knuth} \stopbuffer
\starttext \samplefile{knuth} \getbuffer \samplefile{knuth}
\stoptext
So easy! I am humbled. For some reason I wasn't able to find this in setup-en.pdf. Thanks a lot. juh

[...]
\definehighlight [BufferStyle] [style=smallitalic, color=blue]
Use the highlight-environment or create a new startstop-environment to apply style and color settings to the buffer. \definestartstop [BufferStyle] [style=smallitalic, color=blue] \setupbuffer [before={... \startBufferStyle ...}, after={... \stopBufferStyle ...}] Wolfgang
