\startenumeration ... \stopenumeration

Description

Multi-paragraph numbered objects, previously defined using \defineenumeration. See \defineenumeration for more elaborate info.

Examples

• \setupwhitespace[big]
  \defineenumeration[theorem][text=Theorem, location=left]
  % In mkiv we would write `alternative=left`.
  
  \starttheorem
  This theorem has multiple paragraphs.
  
  We can prove this by counting them: we count more than one paragraph, quod erat demonstrandum.
  \stoptheorem
  
  \tex{theorem} can not contain multiple paragraphs:
  
  \theorem
  This theorem has multiple paragraphs.
  
  We can prove this by counting them: we count more than one paragraph, quod erat demonstrandum.
  
  

  This gives:

• 

It’s also possible to have titles:

• \defineenumeration[Exercise][
    text=Exercise,
    stopper={:},
    title=yes, % activate title
    titleleft=,
    titleright=,
    way=bytext, % don’t restart numbering per chapter
    margin=1em, % indenting
  ]
  
  \samplefile{knuth}
  
  \startExercise[title={Something to do},reference=ex:something]
  \samplefile{lorem}
  \stopExercise
  
  \samplefile{tufte}
