[dev-context] \setnumber

[Wolfgang Schuster]

Hi,

can the \setnumber/\setstructurecounter syntax be changed to allow also

  \setnumber[…][3]

besides the current

  \setnumber[…]{3}

The first form fits better with the other setup commands etc.


\unprotect

\unexpanded\def\setstructurecounter
  {\dodoubleempty\dosetstructurecounter}

\def\dosetstructurecounter
  {\ifsecondargument
     \expandafter\dosetstructurecounteryes
   \else
     \expandafter\dosetstructurecounternop
   \fi}

\def\dosetstructurecounteryes[#1][#2]{\ctxcommand{setstructurecounter    ("\@@thestructurecounter{#1}",1,\number#2)}}
\def\dosetstructurecounternop[#1][]#2{\ctxcommand{setstructurecounter    ("\@@thestructurecounter{#1}",1,\number#2)}}

\let\setnumber\setstructurecounter
