Letter module - appendices
Hi, I know at least a few people use my letter module and I want to ask them if they have a problem when I change the handling of appendices like CC and postscript. The current way to write them is \startletter [copy=..., postscript=...] ... \stopletter and I want to change this in \startletter ... \CC{...} % or \copy{...} \PS{...} % or \postscript{...} \stopletter As positive side effect of the new method would be to write \startletter \opening{...} ... \closing{...} \stopletter as a alternative way to write the opening and closing text (the old keyval works too) but the appendices can be only handled in one way. Wolfgang
Dear Wolfgang, I use your module voor an association. I have no problem if you change the CC and PS part. Kind regards Willi On Feb 15, 2009, at 10:30 PM, Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

No problem for me neither, but be careful with name-clashes: perhaps, Hans will add macros \copy or \postscript in the future. Cheers, Peter -- Contact information: http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

I will use now \ps, \cc and \encl. I already dropped \copy because TeX has a \copy primitive and both conflict with longer letter (>1 pages). Wolfgang
Hi, I uploaded a new version with the appendices handling, here is a example how to use them. All of them are optional and will appear in the output in the order you write them in the text. \usemodule[letter] \starttext \startletter \input knuth % To get a prefix for the postscript write 'PS:' in the text % or use a labeltext, e.g. \setuplabeltext[en][letter:postscript=PS: ] \ps{Postscript} \cc{List of recipients} \encl{Enclosed documents} \stopletter \stoptext Wolfgang
