Turn \inrange{Figures}[fig:a, fig:c, fig:d, fig:e] into "Figures 1, 3-5".
Place inrange.lua
and inrange.mkvi
in your directory (or elsewhere
on the search path), and type
\usemodule[inrange]
\inrange{Figures}{?}[fig:a, fig:b, fig:c]
to get "Figures 1-3?".
-
Figure out how to get the figure number string with prefixes, like '1.2.3'. Then modify
inrange.lua
to handle those (notes on what to alter are in the file, marked withTODO
.) -
Figure out how to let
\inrange
be a valid command for\definereferenceformat
. The naïve approach,\definereferenceformat[inr][command=\inrange]
, doesn't work: the\goto
is baked right into\strc_references_pickup_goto_indeed
. See strc-ref.mkvi. Here is the baked-in \goto:\doifreferencefoundelse{#label} % we need to resolve the text {\goto{\referencesequence}[#label]} {\let\currentreferencecontent\dummyreference \goto{\referencesequence}[#label]}% \strc_references_stop_goto}
