Testing, \quotation{A long quotation in which one character says,
\quotation{Eh? What am I supposed to say? Something like, \quotation
{Quotations in this sentance are nested}?}} testing, 1, 2, 3.
Modified the example setting in small type.
Quotation marks and formatting are language dependent.
; single quotes : <{{cmd>|quote</cmd><tt>|{some text}</tt>}}; double quotes : <{{cmd>|quotation</cmd><tt>|{some text}</tt>}}; long quote sections : try <{{cmd>|startquote</cmd> }} or <{{cmd>|startquotation</cmd> }} etc.
The following commands can be used to automatically nest double and single quotes.
<texcodecontext source="yes">\setuppapersize[A5]
\setupdelimitedtext
[quotation]
[left={\symbol[leftquotation]},
right={\symbol[rightquotation]}]

==Long quotations and extracts==
The following may serve as a guide to others in formatting long quotations or extracts:
===Long quotations defined with {{cmd|definestartstop}}===
In body text:
<texcode>
\defineblank[extractdistance][3pt]
\definestartstop[extract][
before={\blank[extractdistance] % [extractdistance,force] causes spurious
% overfull \hbox warnings
\setupnarrower[left=1.5pc,right=1.5pc]
\startnarrower[left,right]
\noindent},
after={\stopnarrower
\blank[extractdistance]
\indenting[yes]}]
</texcode>
In footnotes:
<texcode>
\defineblank[footenoteextractdistance][2.7pt]
\definestartstop[fnextract][
before={\blank[footenoteextractdistance]
\setupnarrower[left=1.5pc,right=1.5pc]
\startnarrower[left,right]
\noindent},
after={\stopnarrower
\blank[footenoteextractdistance]
\indenting[yes]}]
</texcode>
===Long quotations defined with {{cmd|definedelimitedtext}} ===
In body text:
before={\setupindenting[next]}]
</texcode>
==Example using {{cmd|setupdelimitedtext}}==
Here is how to get indented quotations set in small type:
<context source="yes">
%\setupdelimitedtext[blockquote][style={\setupbodyfont[small]}]
\setupdelimitedtext[blockquote][style=\slx,before={\setupinterlinespace[line=2.4ex]}]
Hello
\startblockquote
\input knuth
%\par
\stopblockquote
Hello
</context>
The {{cmd|par}} inside the block quotation keeps TeX's paragraph builder happy. Otherwise the last paragraph in the block quotation gets the wider linespacing of the outside environment rather than the narrower linespacing appropriate to the smaller text; Alternately, one can add <code>before={\setupinterlinespace}</code>, as shown above.
Using {{code|1=style=small}} does not work as well as <code>style={\setupbodyfont[small]}</code> or <code>style={\setupbodyfont[9pt]}</code>, because {{code|small}} shrinks only the font size but not the linespacing. Alternately, by using <code>before={\setupinterlinespace}</code>, one can then use commands such as <code>style=\tfx</code>, setting the size relatively rather than absolutely, advantageous for nestling and for inclusion in footnotes, for example.
