Description
Set up the appearance of a delimitedtext environment defined earlier with \definedelimitedtext. \quotation and \quote are delimitedtexts, too, so you can also set up those with this command; but for those you can also use the special commands \setupquotation and \setupquote.
Most of the parameters are self-explanatory, but two things should be borne in mind:
- Nearly all of the parameters apply only if the new kind of text is invoked with
\startmydelimitedtext
: if one uses\mydelimitedtext{...}
, onlyleft
andright
have any effect.
leftmargin
contains the distance to the actual left margin, not to the edge of the body text. If the new delimitedtext inherits fromquotation
, the text will be indented a bit with respect to the body text; if you want to line them up, set theleftmargin
to\leftmargindistance
rather than to0pt
.
Example
\definedelimitedtext[mydt] \setupdelimitedtext[mydt][left=\leftguillemot,right=\rightguillemot] \quotation{Clancy of the Overflow}, by Banjo Paterson \startmydt And an answer came directed in a manner unexpected, and I think the same was written with a thumbnail dipped in tar; 't was his shearing-mate who wrote it, and verbatim I will quote it: \quotation{Clancy's gone to Queensland droving, and we don't know where he are.} \stopmydt
