Generate Authorlist from Head Content

User Content in Heads and Table of Contents

With the new head syntax (MkIV) one can easy add information to chapters, sections, etc.

Here is an example from Wolfgang Schuster ([1])

\define[3]\ChapterList
 {\bTABLE[offset=0pt,strut=yes,frame=off,width=.5\textwidth]
    \bTR
      \bTD \structurelistuservariable{date} \eTD
      \bTD #2 \eTD
      \bTD (\structurelistuservariable{author}) \eTD
    \eTR
  \eTABLE}

\setuplist
  [chapter]
  [alternative=command,
   command=\ChapterList]

\define[2]\ChapterHead
  {\startframedtext[frame=off,width=broad,offset=0pt,align=middle]
     \doifsomething
       {\structureuservariable{date}}
       {\structureuservariable{date}\blank}
       #2
     \doifsomething
       {\structureuservariable{author}}
       {\blank\structureuservariable{author}}
   \stopframedtext}

\setuphead
  [chapter]
  [command=\ChapterHead]


\starttext

\completecontent

\startchapter[title=Rom][date=12.06.2010,author=Knuth]
  \input knuth
\stopchapter

\startchapter[title=Pisa][date=14.06.2010,author=Tufte]
