Thank you, Hans! This works, I get all the correct page references! I didn't know about cont-new.mkxl to temporarily store "hacks". I assume the file is updated with each release? Is there a way to store local hacks, e.g., in texmf-local? I could not find "cont-loc" (maybe it's not a file). For future reference, this is how I am using the hack: \def\MyRegisterPageCommand#1{\currentregisterrealpage} \setupregister[MyRegisterA][pagecommand=\MyRegisterPageCommand] \setupregister[MyRegisterB][pagecommand=\MyRegisterPageCommand]

Dear list, \setuplist has the convenient option [pagenumber=realpage] \setupregister has not (yet). How can I get the realpagenumber instead of the userpagenumber for the register indices? I tried \def\MyPageCommand#1{\realpagenumber} \setupregister[MyIndex][pagecommand=\MyPageCommand] but this prints only the current (although real) page number. you can try with this in cont-new.mkxl

\pushoverloadmode \unprotect

\let\currentregisterrealpage\!!zerocount % todo: more general accessor

\permanent\protected\def\withregisterpagecommand#1#2#3#4% {\ifcase#3\relax {\tt [entry\space not\space flushed]}% \else \def\currentregisterpageindex{#2}% \def\currentregisterrealpage{#3}% \iflocation \strc_references_goto_internal{\applyprocessor{#1}{\registerparameter\c!pagecommand{#4}}}[internal(#2)]% \else \applyprocessor{#1}{\registerparameter\c!pagecommand{#4}}% \fi \fi}

\protect \popoverloadmode

which sets \currentregisterrealpage
