[NTG-context] Ordered list of references (figures)

[Taco Hoekwater]

Hi Hraban,

Here is what I can do at short notice. After this, I would probably just cut&paste
the final result back in after some tweaking. In any case, I am out of time right now.

Good luck,
Taco


\newif\iffirstFIDXpage

\def\textcommand#1{#1\global\firstFIDXpagetrue}
\def\pagecommand#1{\iffirstFIDXpage (p.~\fi \global\firstFIDXpagefalse #1}
\def\stopregisterpages{)\dostoptagged\endgroup}

\defineregister[fidx]
\setupregister[fidx][%
	n=1, align=no,
	%alternative=B,
	compress=yes,
	indicator=no,
	textcommand=\textcommand,
	pagecommand=\pagecommand,
	distance=0.5em,
	before={},
	after={},
	prefix=none]
