Re: [NTG-context] sorting commalist?
Hi Hans, Hans van der Meer wrote: In the article Context System macros, part1: general macros there are all sorts of interesting and useful macros. Among these I have set my eye on the processing of commalists. I should extend that document, but I've lost the source :-( Question: is there a context macro that takes a commalist (either in a token register or \the\tokenregister form) that returns a sorted commalist (ascending or descending doesnt matter to me for the moment). There is \sortcommalist (syst-ext.tex), but it only works for lists of numbers, TeX does not know how to sort words. That type of sorting has to be done externally.

There is actually a macro file that uses logarithmic numbers and another one using strings as numbers, but neither can be used without extensive changes to your code.

Hello,
the answers to these three questions are most probably one-liners, but
I don't know which ones ;)
1. How can I scale (an already defined) reusableMPgraphic? Simplified
example of what I currently (want to) have:
% how should I change this definition?
\def\usemygraphic[#1][#2]{\reuseMPgraphic{#1}}
\usemygraphic[name][width=.7\textwidth]
\def\usemygraphic[#1][#2]{\scale[#2]{\reuseMPgraphic{#1}}
\usempgraphic[name][width=4cm,height=5cm]
\scale accepts the same scaling options as externalfigure
2. I have several graphics defined as
\startGNUPLOTgraphic[1][name]
draw fullcircle scaled 3cm withcolor .625red;
\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
\startGNUPLOTgraphic[2][name]
draw fullcircle scaled 3cm withcolor .625green;
\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
\startGNUPLOTgraphic[3][name]
draw fullcircle scaled 3cm withcolor .625blue;
\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
\startGNUPLOTgraphic[1][othername]
fill fullcircle scaled 3cm withcolor .625red;
\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
\startGNUPLOTgraphic[2][othername]
fill fullcircle scaled 3cm withcolor .625green;
\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
and a pretty stupid definition:
\long\def\startGNUPLOTgraphic
{\dodoubleargument\dostartGNUPLOTgraphic}
\long\def\dostartGNUPLOTgraphic[#1][#2]#3\stopGNUPLOTgraphic % [number][name]
{% add to counter to note the nuber of the graphic
% define a new counter for the first time when you use it
\doif{#1}{1}{\doglobal\newcounter\abc}% counter name has to depend on
#2
\doglobal\increment\abc % assigning the value #1 to it would also be OK
\startreusableMPgraphic{gpg:#2:#1}#3\stopreusableMPgraphic}
How can I give a better name than \abc to the counter (the name should
depend on #2 in order to be unique)?
why do you need a counter
\long\def\dostartGNUPLOTgraphic[#1][#2]#3\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
{\startreusableMPgraphic{gpg:#2:#1}#3\stopreusableMPgraphic}
3. I would like to change \usemygraphic, so that
\usemygraphic[othername] or \usemygraphic[othername][height=5cm] would
resolve to
\dorecurse{2}{\useMPgraphic{gpg:othername:\recurselevel}}
and \usemygraphic[name][n={1,3},width=8cm] (syntax might be different
if necessary) to
\reuseMPgraphic{gpg:name:1}
\reuseMPgraphic{gpg:name:3}
(with proper scaling if possible).
you want all graphics?
\def\usemygraphic#1%
{\doloop
{\doifMPgraphicelse{gpg:#1:\recurselevel}
{\reuseMPgraphic{gpg:name:\recurselevel}}
{\exitloop}}}
or so ...

Better use \definenumber instead of the low-level command.

How should I start?
Create a commalist of desired numbers first (possibly using recursion),
then run \processcommalist on each item.

If you need only 4000 separate PIDs, that should work ok.
or has someone a better idea to handle those informations.
But it is probably easier to write a small database interface

Some things I do not understand about sorting:
This is the example:

\city{Londen}
\city{Berlijn}

\city{Parijs}
\city{Amstelveen}
\placelistofcities
\callupcities
question 1. The manual states (p.163) When we add a command in the
third argument during the definition of the sorted list we may recall
sorted list with this command.
However \callupcities gives me this error:
Runaway argument?
! Paragraph ended before \callupcities was complete.
to be read again
\par
\callupcities takes an argument, that is what is causing the
error message. But how it is supposed to work, I do not know.
question 2. The command \sortprocess does work, the items are in bold.
But they now are typeset next to one another instead of each one on a
line by itself, as occurs without command=\sortprocess on the setup.
You have to extend \sortprocess if you want something besides making
a bold inlined list of cities. Why? Consider this idiom:
\def\citylist{}
\def\makecitylist#1{\doglobal\appendtocommalist{#1}\citylist}
