Re: [NTG-context] Position margin text block near previous paragraph
Just a quick comment, since I cannot try anything in LiveContext right at this time: What you want is the equivalent of LaTeX's \marginpar , which is really a \vtop whose beginning coincides with the beginning of the paragraph being \note[d]. I am thinking that this would be a good test case for Brooks Moses' LaTeX-to-ConTeXt set of macros. I will experiment with it tonight unless someone beats me to the punch :-) Best, elena

Both of you missed the original question. What is desired is the output of \inmargin{....} A par \par but with the input being: A par \par \inmargin{....} which is a whole lot harder to do, and a generic solution is probably impossible. I'm sorry, no solution from me Taco
