Hi Hans,

I have the following sample:

\setuptyping[option=TEX] \starttext \starttyping \input zapf % knuth \stoptyping \stoptext

The percent character is in bold font and gray color, but the rest of the commented text isn’t. [...]

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang. After reading the document, I think it could be achieved with: \definefontfamily[mainface][mono][DejaVu Sans Mono] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \defineprocessor[myescape][style=bold,color=gray, left=\%] \setuptyping[TEX][escape=myescape->{\%}] \starttext \startTEX This is a c%omment. % And this is another one. \command [with colored] {brackets} \stopTEX \stoptext But this doesn’t work. I must be missing something obvious. What am I doing wrong here? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

You have to add a comma after \letterpercent. You should also be careful with the text in the comments because commands are expanded, e.g. take a look at the \TeX in the comment.

\setupbodyfont[dejavu]

\defineprocessor[myescape][style=\ttbf,color=gray,left={\letterpercent}]

\setuptyping[TEX][escape=myescape->{\letterpercent,}]

\starttext \startTEX This is \TeX\ code % and this is a \TeX\ comment. \stopTEX \stoptext

Sorry for not having replied before and many thanks for your help, Wolfgang. The code works as you told me. I really appreciate your help. I have a further question about the option=TEX to color code. This was my original issue, but I haven’t expressed myself clearly. The question is directed primarily to Hans. With option=TEX, comment seems to be the only element that isn’t colored and formatted as a whole. Other elements are formatted as a whole and the format even extends in multiple lines. My question here isn’t technical (unless the described behavior is a bug). The issue is on visual coherence. At least for newbies, it would be better to differentiate visually between regular text and commented text. Is there any reason not to format whole comments option=TEX? (Sorry, but I don’t understand why this is different.) Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
