Hello Hans,
with align=middle, the typing is aligned line by line. What I'm looking for

\setuptyping[margin=3cm]
Hello Hans,
I don't understand, it's still not centred...
Or do you mean, I have to put the typing into a box,
measure the width of the box, and then calculate the
right margin ((\textwidth - \typingwidth) / 2) ?

[NTG-context] problem using \usepackage{m-metapo}
I do not know if it is proper to post this question to
this list but a miktex-user suggested to send it to you because
there were not suggestioned solutions on that list.
My apologies if I am sending this to the wrong list.
This is the problem
I am new to MiKTeX and I am have not been able to solve
a problem that arises when I try to use the m-metapo package.
Here is a simple example
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{m-metapo}
\begin{document}
Why this error?
\end{document}
This is the error I get
(C:\MiKTeX\Main\tex\context\base\supp-mis.tex
loading : Context Support Macros / Miscellaneous (2004.10.26)
)
loading : Context Support Macros / MetaPost Inclusion
! Undefined control sequence.
\startMPinclusions -\dosingleempty
\dostartMPinclusions
l.245 \startMPinclusions
\stopMPinclusions
?
The relevant part of the log says
\MPextensions=\toks18
! Undefined control sequence.
\startMPinclusions -\dosingleempty
\dostartMPinclusions
l.245 \startMPinclusions
\stopMPinclusions
? r
OK, entering \nonstopmode...
! Use of \dostartMPinclusions doesn't match its definition.
l.245 \startMPinclusions \stopMPinclusions
If you say, e.g., `\def\a1{...}', then you must always
put `1' after `\a', since control sequence names are
made up of letters only. The macro here has not been
followed by the required stuff, so I'm ignoring it.
I have wasted hours on this stupid thing.
I would greatly a hint to solve this.
I have a large number of metapost graphs that I used
through the m-metapo package
Thank you for any help

Seems that the unix texmfstart stub is missing.
indeed; the fastest method is:
cp texmfstart.rb .../bin/texmfstart
or make a stub that directly points to your copy of texmfstart
What's wrong?
maybe you need to run mktexlsr
Doesn't help, and the required map files are here for a while (eg:
kpsewhich ec-base.map gives

It works if i remove (or rename) the dvipdfm directory.
What can i do to have ruby thing working, and pdftex fonts used instead of
dvipdfm ones?
your texmf.cnf file should contain:
TEXFONTMAPS =
.;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//;$TEXMF/{$progname,pdftex,dvips}/{config,}//
as long as we have no uniform map file syntax, progs needs to be able to
find their own map files

[NTG-context] m-bib and \onlinecite
Hello,
what is the recommended way to get the following:
as is written in Ref.~4.
Using Ref.~\cite[four] gives Ref. [4] with the superfluous brackets.
(\cite[ref] should remain unmodified, ie with brackets, as this is
mostly used in texts [1-5,7].)
APS' revtex offers \onlinecite (Ref.~\onlinecite{four}) to obtain the
reference number without the brackets.

maybe you need to run mktexlsr

your texmf.cnf file should contain:
TEXFONTMAPS =
.;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//;$TEXMF/{$progname,pdftex,dvips}/{config,}//
as long as we have no uniform map file syntax, progs needs to be able to
find their own map files
Ok, thanks, modifying texmf.cnf as you say fixes the path precedence. Now,
is there a ruby debug mode to see why the paths are lost with texexec.rb?
Or tests I could do to find out what happens?

Hello,
what is the recommended way to get the following:

Using Ref.~\cite[four] gives Ref. [4] with the superfluous brackets.

That will give you the full month name according to the current
language labeltext for the month names. Not perfect yet, but better.
Thanks. For my present project I need short month names, and the
deadline is tomorrow. So, I will stick to the manual solution at the

I'll ask Hans to provide true \numberconversions for month names in
short and long format, so I can extend the module officially.
That will be great.

Hello Taco,
I understand and accept your arguments. Even for me, it's no more problem
to add here and there a \dontleavehmode, since I know it now. But for a
beginner and a user without ambition to become a ConTeXt expert, the actual
behaviour is annoying. He just sees a line break, where he does not expect
it. There is a fundamental difference between
bla \framed{bla} bla
and
\framed{bla} bla bla
that is not understandable.
It's much more straightforward and clear to add a \par (and perhaps
\noindentation) if you really want this line break (for example in your
macro \startrecipe).
Maybe Hans is willing to add a global switch that you can set at
the top of your document(s).
Perhaps one day, I would like to convert some of my colleagues from M$-Word
to ConTeXt, but if I have to teach them about things like \dontleavehmode
there is no need for further efforts. So, such a switch would be very
welcome (I would put it into cont-sys.tex)!
Cheers, Peter

I am not saying that that is the best way to write macros (and I
certainly do not do it like that anymore) but changing the behaviour
would break quite a lot of my existing documents, including some
I have been payed for to do.
Maybe Hans is willing to add a global switch that you can set at
the top of your document(s).
For Hans: Peter would like an implicit \dontleavehmode added to
\framed and \externalfigure, so they behave more like characters
(not like \hboxes).
as you say, a dangerous feature that would break much (keep in mind that
\framed is used all over the place)

I understand and accept your arguments. Even for me, it's no more problem
to add here and there a \dontleavehmode, since I know it now. But for a
beginner and a user without ambition to become a ConTeXt expert, the actual

it. There is a fundamental difference between
bla \framed{bla} bla
and
\framed{bla} bla bla
that is not understandable.
this is the case for many more things and a tex speciality which takes
while to get accustomed to; a similar case is
{\bf whatever} rest of par
best put a \dontleavevmode or \strut in front if you want indentation
and related features to work
Perhaps one day, I would like to convert some of my colleagues from M$-Word
to ConTeXt, but if I have to teach them about things like \dontleavehmode
there is no need for further efforts. So, such a switch would be very
welcome (I would put it into cont-sys.tex)!
but then it would break other things and your collegues would scream about that
btw, there is \inframed for inline usage, or one could define a symbol

[NTG-context] Global and per product TOC
Hello,
I would like to be able to have a set of books in a single document, and
think the project/product model could be used.
In the big manual it is said that one can have a completecontent per
product. I would like a global TOC, and for each product a TOC per product
(in this case per book). Currently each book have the whole project TOC.
How to achieve this? Thanks for any hint.
The structure I've tried:
\startproject proj
% global TOC
\completecontent
\product book1
\product book2
\stopproject
--
\startproduct book1
\project proj
% well, to put in an environment file...
\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart]
\setuppagenumber[number=1]
\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart]
\setuppagenumber[number=1]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
% Local book TOC?
\completecontent[criterium=local]
\chapter{A}
a
\chapter{B}
a
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\chapter{A}
a
\chapter{B}
a
\stopbodymatter
\startappendices
\chapter{A}
a
\chapter{B}
a
\stopappendices
\stoptext
\stopproduct

(The same for book2)

[NTG-context] Problem with a french document
Hi all,
I use a "complex" structure for my document (project, product,
environment and components).
The project is allmost empty except for the environment and the product
declarations.
The environment contains all my \usemodule, \setupstuff and fonts
settings (I use texnansi because I can't have correct horizontal spaces
in MetaUML with the EC encoding... and don't want bitmap fonts :) ).
The product obviously contains the project declaration, the
\start-\stoptext and my components.
My question is: What's the best place to put french settings ?
For the moment, I have:
\useregime[il9]
\enableencoding[ffr]
\mainlanguage[fr]
in my product but I have some VERY STRANGE problems with accentuated
characters (I have tried before and after \startproduct...):
1.I have a custom title page defined in a t-title.tex module - a
results in ' while and are right (maybe a problem with texnansi
but I don't think so)
2.
\setupheadertexts[][{\sl \getmarking[chapter]}]
\startfrontmatter
\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals]
\setuppagenumber[number=1]
\chapter{Table des matires}
\placecontent[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all,partnumber=no]
\stopfrontmatter
results in: Tables des Mati'res in the header, the toc element and the
chapter title... while other toc elements is ok (with accentuated
characters)
3. same problems with \chapter within backmatter start/stop pair...
I must precise that I have the following error:
TeXUtil | fatal error in plugin processor MySynonyms (wrong argument
type nil (expected Regexp))
I'm going nuts... :-!

Renaud

[NTG-context] components and figure search paths
Using components (e.g. book chapters), with each component in its own
directory, say I have
\startproduct onebook
\project manybooks
\component 1/chap
\component 2/chap
\stopproduct
with this 1/chap.tex:
\startcomponent 1/chap
\product onebook
\project manybooks
\title{One}
An essential chapter.
\useexternalfigure[ff][abc.1]
\placefigure[here][ff]{Some caption}{\externalfigure[ff]}
\stopcomponent
I'd like to keep the figures and source for a chapter together,
e.g. abc.mp and abc.1 in 1/chap/ since each chapter has many figures,
and I edit and test one chapter at a time.
That arrangement works fine if I build the component:
cd 1 texexec chap.tex
but not if I build the product:
texexec book.tex
(it doesn't find abc.1 since it's not in the same dir as book.tex)
The details.pdf manual says that figures are searched for in the local
path (current directory) and the global one, with the global one set by
the directory keyword:
\setupexternalfigures[directory={c:/fig/eps,c:/fig/pdf}]
Is there a way to specify current directory relative to this
component, or a way to add that setting to the default 'local' path
(even before '.')?
I could add it manually in the preamble of the 1/chap.tex but it would
mean hardwiring the pathname into it, which seems hacky. E.g. it fails
if I export the whole source tree to /tmp/tmp.2773ab/ to test rebuilding
all the pdf's from scratch.
