Hi, now I found something (for LaTeX) that looks like exactly what I mean: a "runner" see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/juramisc/doc/jmgerdoc.p... , page 20: "\rn[ (Marke) ] { (erstes Wort) } rn steht für Randnummer oder für runner, der englischen Bezeichnung für Randziffern." Does someone know how to do this in ConTeXt? Steffen

Hi,

using ConTeXt more and more for typesetting books from the field of law/jurisdiction I came across some specifics that I just don't know how to do in our beloved application:

1) Paragraphs (not all) are labeled with numbers in the margin. These "paragraph numbers" are used in the table of contents in such way: you have the content's entry (eg the section heading), then the dots, then the corresponding paragraph number, then the corresponding page number.

2) Paragraphs (not all) are labeled with numbers in the margin. These "paragraph numbers" are used in a separate "paragraph register" in such way: you have the index entry (a law's number), space, then you have the corresponding paragraph number (the text paragraph where the index was used). [But of course there is also a "regular register" afterwards, containing alphabetical listed keyword index entries pointing to page numbers.]

So, how can that be done??

Yours,

Steffen ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!

Thank you Wolfgang.

This was the easy part ... ... but do you also know how to implement in ConTeXt the real usage of runner – what I have described when starting this thread?

[Is it understandable what I am looking for? Otherwise I can contact you privately in German.]

Hi Steffen, no problem to do this via private mail. My solution did also not work with enabled indenting. You can try: \setupindenting[big,yes] \starttext \rn text text \input knuth \stoptext Wolfgang
