%             the manuals contain characteristic graphics and personal notes or examples that
%             make no sense when used out-of-context.

\usemodule[mag-01]

\startbuffer[abstract]
    Subpage numbers can save you some messing around with page references. Here
    we show some basics.
\stopbuffer

\startdocument
  [title={Page Ranges},
   author=Hans Hagen,
   affiliation=PRAGMA ADE,
   date=Februari 2003,
   number=2 \MKIV]

This is a simple example of using subpage numbers. Subpage numbers are not
automatically kept track of, so you first need to activate them:

\startbuffer
\setupsubpagenumber
  [way=bychapter,
   state=start]
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer \getbuffer

After activating this mechanism, you can access the numbers as follows. The
numbers are synchronized in during page building, which means that they are
correct when constructing headers and footers.

\startbuffer
\setupheadertexts
  [\firstsubpage--\lastsubpage]

\setupfootertexts
  [\pagenumber]
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer \getbuffer

There are several ways to access those numbers:

\starttabulate
\NC \type{\firstsubpage} \NC first real pagenumber in range    \NC\NR
\NC \type{\prevsubpage}  \NC previous real pagenumber in range \NC\NR
\NC \type{\nextsubpage}  \NC next real pagenumber in range     \NC\NR
\NC \type{\lastsubpage}  \NC last real pagenumber in range     \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\startsetups [sub check]

  \vfill

  \setupbodyfont[8pt]

  \startcolor[MyBlue]

  \starttabulate[|l|r|]
  \NC \type{\firstsubpage} \NC \firstsubpage       \NC\NR
  \NC \type{\prevsubpage}  \NC \prevsubpage        \NC\NR
  \NC \type{\nextsubpage}  \NC \nextsubpage        \NC\NR
  \NC \type{\lastsubpage}  \NC \lastsubpage        \NC\NR
  \NC \type{\nofsubpages}  \NC \nofsubpages        \NC\NR
  \TB
  \NC \type{\lastpage}     \NC \lastpage           \NC\NR
  \TB
  \NC \type{\subpageno}    \NC \number \subpageno  \NC\NR
  \NC \type{\pageno}       \NC \number \pageno     \NC\NR
  \NC \type{\realpageno}   \NC \number \realpageno \NC\NR
  \stoptabulate

  \stopcolor

  \vfill \vfill

\stopsetups

We will now generate a bunch of fake chapters to illustrate this feature.

\setuptexttexts
  [margin]
  [] [\vbox to \textheight{\setups[sub check]}]

\chapter{Tufte} \dorecurse{15}{\input tufte }
\chapter{Zapf}  \dorecurse{10}{\input zapf  }
\chapter{Knuth} \dorecurse{20}{\input knuth }

\stopdocument
