[NTG-context] Hitting 'e' for error in Scite?

[NTG-context] updating context on Ubuntu 6.06
Here's what I had to do to update to the latest Context (2006.07.14) on
Ubuntu 6.06 (i.e. 2006.06) distribution of Linux. It comes with tetex
3.0. The commands below assume a working Context already installed in
your ~/texmf, and the commands use bash syntax, which is almost like
'sh' but has the ~ idiom for $HOME.
Beforehand I had been using the 2006.04.17 beta and had put off
upgrading because I was scared of the change from perl texexec to ruby
texexec.
1. (optional cleanup) Delete the old Context-installed files in
~/texmf/. This step is optional, but I do it so that I can track the
versions using an SCM. I use mercurial (hg is the program name), but
it could have been svn, cvs, etc. The command (done in ~/texmf):
hg locate -0 | xargs rm -0
2. (download, unpack) Download cont-tmf.zip, cont-fnt.zip, and
cont-img.zip. Probably you need only the first zip file, but I'm
reporting exactly what I did just in case any substep is the crucial
one. The command:
cd /tmp/ # no need to save them long-term
wget http://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/current/cont-{tmf,fnt,img}.zip
Unzip the zip archives into ~/texmf, appending the giant
list of files to /tmp/a.log:
cd ~/texmf
for f in /tmp/cont-{tmf,fnt,img}.zip ; do unzip $f /tmp/a.log ;done
3. (stubs, part 1) Create ~/bin/texmfstart containing two lines:
#!/bin/bash
~/texmf/scripts/context/ruby/texmfstart.rb $@
Then make it executable with
chmod +x ~/bin/texmfstart
From what I can tell from reading the ruby code, using the full path
to texmfstart.rb helps texmfstart.rb find the other .rb programs,
like texexec.rb. (texmfstart.rb uses the path it was called with and
looks in that directory, but Hans can correct me if I'm wrong here.)
4. (stubs, part 2) texmfstart will run texexec, so create texexec as a
symlink to ~/texmf/scripts/context/stubs/unix/texexec:
cd ~/bin
ln -s ~/texmf/scripts/context/stubs/unix/texexec
chmod +x texexec
Hans: Could texexec be made executable in the distribution's zip
file, to avoid the chmod?
5. (test 1) A first check is that texexec works. So change to a random
directory, e.g. where you keep some Context files:
cd ~/tmp/xy ; texexec --version
That produces:
TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD
which looks good
6. (formats) Remake the formats with
texexec --make --all
7. (test 2) Try a simple file. I use ~/tmp/xy/t.tex containing one
line, \starttext abc \stoptext. Here goes:
texexec t
fails with
! Font \*12ptrmtf*=ec-lmr12 not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found.
8. (dreaded lmodern) Ack, it's the dreaded lmodern problem. I thought I
had avoided this issue on my previous laptop, which ran Debian
testing/unstable and got reincarnated as an Ubuntu laptop. And I had
fixed it, by installing the 'lmodern' package. But Ubuntu lmodern is
v0.92, at least as of Ubuntu 6.06, and Debian unstable uses v1.00,
which includes the necessary .tfm files for ec-lmr*. The beta Ubuntu
('edgy eft') uses the new version, so I downloaded its .deb via
http://packages.ubuntu.com, which eventually pointed me to a monster
url and I did:
cd /tmp
wget
http://ubuntu.mirrors.tds.net/ubuntu/pool/universe/l/lmodern/lmodern_1.00-2_all.deb
Note that the package version may change, so the easiest way is to
download the latest .deb from
http://ubuntu.mirrors.tds.net/ubuntu/pool/universe/l/lmodern/
Installing it is a bit painful. The first try (done as root) of
dpkg -i /tmp/lmodern_1.00-2_all.deb
complains with
Usage error: unrecognized option
Usage: update-fonts-dir DIRECTORY ...
'update-fonts-dir' is some X program that updates X's ideas of where
its fonts are, and the package isn't calling it correctly. But I
don't care whether X knows about the lmodern fonts, since I'm using
them for documents viewed with gv or xpdf, not directly as an X font.
So I shut up update-fonts-dir for the moment, installed, and undid
the shutting up (all as root):
chmod -x /usr/bin/update-fonts-dir
dpkg -i /tmp/lmodern_1.00-2_all.deb
chmod +x /usr/bin/update-fonts-dir
9. (test 2 again, not as root) Now 'texexec t' works fine, as does
'texexec --check'
So I think all is well, and I didn't need to set RUBYLIB. Let me know
of any corrections or improvements; if there's interest I'll wikifi.
From now on, I hope I can update using
texmfstart ctxtools --updatecontext

Re: [NTG-context] XY and papersize
To summarize, Taco kindly solved this problem after exchanging some messages
with me off list - thank you Taco.
The key is, when using a papersize other than the A4 default with XY, it is
necessary to first explicitly set the appropriate papersize. This enables
the XY calculations to expand properly.
For example:
\setuppapersize[letter][letter]
\setuppapersize [XY][letter]
\setuppaper[nx=3,ny=10,dx=2mm,dy=0mm,topspace=5mm,backspace=5mm]
\setuplayout [location=middle]
\setuparranging [XY]
\showframe
\starttext \dorecurse{30}{test} \stoptext
This is a very handy way to generate a centered layout for labels of any
size. The spacing between the labels is easily controlled with dx and dy.
Thanks for the help solving this,
Matt

[NTG-context] setupnarrower with em or quad
Hi, I need a \setupnarrower with quad or em distance. But both... \setupnarrower[left=\quad and \setupnarrower[left=\em ... don't work. Someone knows the right syntax? Thank you, Steffen ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

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
Thanks to both you and Taco!
why do you need a counter
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 ...
Wow! No, I don't need a counter in that case ;)
Just a little detail: Yes, I want all the graphics except if the user
provides n={1,3} or n=4, then I would like to output only the ones
specified. I know that this is a trivial question, but how do I
extract the argument of n=... to \processcommalist on it?
depends on how you store it (say in requestedlist), anyhow testing is simple
\def\usemygraphic#1%
{\doloop
{\doifMPgraphicelse{gpg:#1:\recurselevel}
{\expanded{\doifinset{\recurselevel}{requestedlist}}{\reuseMPgraphic{gpg:name:\recurselevel}}}
{\exitloop}}}
or so
And yet another shortstupid question: when does \c!something=\v!value
work? I tried to change \setupGNUPLOT[terminal=context] into
[\c!terminal=\v!context] (in \unprotect-ed area), but I get a
command-undefined error.
Thanks,
Mojca

Hello,

Mojca, sorry I do not know the answer to that. But I was testing a few
things with \underbar and now have questions of my own.
Something seem to be broken with \underbar and ||. See the output of
\underbar{stand||alone}
Isn't | a special char like (plain tex)?
What happens, if you use \textbar instead?
I want to get the special meaning of |. Actually I was just testing
something with
\underbar{\input knuth \endgraf}
and noticed the problem.
Also, what is difference between alternatives in underbar? All the
three alternatives look the same to me (from the sources)
{\setupunderbar [alternativevariant=a]\underbar{alternative a}},
{\setupunderbar [alternativevariant=b]\underbar{alternative b}},
{\setupunderbar [alternativevariant=c]\underbar{alternative c}}
Try alternative instead of alternativevariant.
Thanks, alternative works perfectly.
Hans, can you fix the typo in the example in core-fnt.tex (around line
440).

There is no mention of hypenation, but looking at Fig 10.3 it seems that hypenation is taken care of. Working with a rectangular region should be easier, but then one needs to take care of pagebreaks.
