problem with \appendtoks \to\everypar
Hi, There is no hangover for italics. Please have a look: \starttext \def\hangover{\hangafter=1\hangindent=1em} \definestartstop[hangingarea] [before={\bgroup\appendtoks\hangover\to\everypar}, after=\egroup] \starthangingarea \input tufte {\it italic} text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text \stophangingarea \stoptext Thanks, Steffen

This is a typical TeX gotcha. Don't start a paragraph with a group, because the \everypar will be executed within the group. The problem is not the italics but the { .
\starttext \def\hangover{\hangafter=1\hangindent=1em}
\definestartstop[hangingarea] [before={\bgroup\appendtoks\hangover\to\everypar}, after=\egroup]
\starthangingarea \input tufte
Do this: \leavevmode {\it italic} text roman test text roman test text roman test text
roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text roman test text \stophangingarea
Best wishes, Taco

\stoptext
that's because the everypar happens in a group then (one of the nasty thinsg that is hard to take care of) \dontleavehmode {\it ... or put a strut in front ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
