Hey list, I have my page numbers setup as follows so that page numbers are flanked with tildes. \setuppagenumbering [location=right, way=bytext, left={\~},right={\~}, color=colour_page_number, style=bold] ConTeXt chokes on the parameters to left and right: !

Hey list,
I have my page numbers setup as follows so that page numbers are flanked with tildes.
\setuppagenumbering [location=right, way=bytext, left={\~},right={\~}, color=colour_page_number, style=bold]
ConTeXt chokes on the parameters to left and right: ! Undefined control sequence. (untested) what about \lettertilde instead of \~ ?

Thanks Luigi. That did it. Although, I think if I was using it properly as an escape sequence, then perhaps we have found a bug. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

\~ is the plain TeX macro for placing the ~ accent. Try \~a etc. The correct way to access a tilde is \lettertilde and \texttilde (or \textasciitilde) depending on what glyph you want. Aditya

Thanks Aditya. If I had more time, I'd be updating the wiki and pdfs with all the answers to these questions. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com
