Hi to all,

I'm typesetting a manual for a programming language. I'm inserting long excerpts from code and I have my nice line numbers as explained by the wiki. Code is inserted using \startcode\stopcode mechanism (I have two type of starttyping). I cannot understand how to refer to these code blocks. I mean, I need to have something like this: "in the code at page xxx, ...". I guess it's simple but seems I cannot solve.

Add \pagereference[tag] before (or include it as part of the macro) \startcode. Then you can refer to it by \at[tag] There is also \textreference and \reference. From core-ref.tex %D This module deals with referencing. In \CONTEXT\ referencing %D is one of the core features, although at a first glance %D probably nobody will notice. This is good, because %D referencing should be as hidden as possible. %D %D In paper documents, referencing comes down to cross %D referencing, but in their interactive counterparts, is also %D involves navigation. Many features implemented here are %D therefore closely related to navigation. %D %D Many \CONTEXT\ commands can optionally be fed with a %D reference. Such a reference, when called upon, returns the %D number of a figure, table, chapter etc, a piece of text, or %D a pagenumber. %D %D There are three ways of defining a reference: %D %D \starttyping %D \pagereference[here] %D \textreference[here]{some text} %D \stoptyping %D %D the third alternative combines them in: %D %D \starttyping %D \reference[here]{some text} %D \stoptyping HTH, Aditya
