Hello For a publication project in phonetics and dialectology I'd like to print the phonetic transcription and the dialect text in a two column setup.

[NTG-context] Module documentation
Hello all, I have been using Context for a while now and have learnt a lot from the manuals and wiki. I now want to start to use features that are not documented. On the wiki (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Official_ConTeXt_Documentation#ConTeXt_Sources) I found the following command for producing a pdf output for a module: texmfstart texexec --module kpse:core-tab.tex which seems ideal for learning more. When I run the above command line it creates a .ted file but then complains: I can't find the format file 'cont-en.fmt'! On Luigi Scarso's page (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/User:Luigi.scarso/modules.pdf) he suggests the following: texexec --module --pdf core-tab.tex but this returns no output at all, and no pdf. I am working on Windows. I installed (this week) from the context/install/mswincontext.zip on the Pragma site and normally build from the Scite editor. Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

[NTG-context] mplib undefined commands
Hello Hans,
I have modified the gnuplot module a bit, and stumbled upon:
1.) the need for
\ifx\savebuffer\undefined \else \savebuffer[...]\fi
which has been expected
2.) undefined command
\forceMPTEXcheck{put_text}
I have now used a wrapper to skip that line in LuaTeX (btw: what's the
suggested \if clause or \beginNOLUATEX to check for luatex/mkiv?) Does
it make sense to define \let\forceMPTEXcheck\empty in mkiv perhaps?
3.) undefined command \obeyMPlines. I actually forgot why I needed it,
but according to the comment:
\obeyMPlines % - no longer a problem
\def\obeyedline{}% - thanks to this
I simply commented out the first line and hoped for no problems in mkii
4.) It seems to work without problems now, except for one tiny detail
that I get in the final PDF.
[do we need TeXtexts in MkIV]
What is that supposed to mean?
I need to admit that I have the following piece of code in the module
(in case that matters). Maybe I'm the only one who uses it, so if you
have any idea how to modify the macros to make
\sometxt[gp][iwona,14pt]{text} work in mkiv, I will happily drop the
old code/replace it for mkiv.
Thanks a lot,
Mojca
The relevant code from the module:
%D Aditya, thanks a lot for requesting it!
%D Hans, thanks a lot for implementing this!
\definetextext[gp]{\strut}
%D TODO (feature request):
%D \starttyping
%D\sometxt[gp][ss,20pt]{abc}
%D \stoptyping
%D should become equivalent to
%D \starttyping
%D\sometxt{\switchtobodyfont[ss,20pt]\strut abc}
%D \stoptyping
%D The following patch has been written by Aditya and seems to work OK,
%D however it would be more clean to have this functionality in the core.
%D Redefining low-level macros might be a bit dangerous, esp. since
%D they tend to change over time.
%D
%D TODO: remind Hans to implement it in core ;)
%D and remove this patch from the module

There are two options: 1.) take a look at first-setup.sh (really stupid script); you can call mtx-update with --engine=luatex As opposed to --engine=all? Sounds good so far. But... you still get pfb files as they are needed for math; and you get quite some helvetica/times enc/map/pfb files since px tx math fonts need them (needed for gyre) - this will go away once gyre math is ready; I suppose that a legacy-free TeX will have to wait a bit... Slight tangent: Is there any support for using any of the OpenType math fonts (I know of Cambria Math, STIX, and Asana Math—this last on tug.org) in mkiv? 2.) you can write your own set of rsync calls, like: snip See also: http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/context-installer/src/ you can then start from there. Looking into it. What I have in mind is a small package with … a complete, truly stand-alone, modern typesetting environment on a USB stick. If you're willing to work on it, just tell me what exactly you need (I can put different stuff on the garden). Can't promise a lot of time, but it's something I need so I'll work on it. --Joel ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] mplib
Hallo,
the following compiles ok, but gives me an status 3=fatal error.
Can someone please point me to the error?
\startlua
mp = mplib.new ( {
hash_size = 10,
main_memory = 200,
param_size = 10,
} )
if mp then
res = mp:execute(
beginfig(1) draw (0,0) .. (1,1) .. (2,1); endfig; bye; )
tex.print([ .. tostring(res.status) .. ])
mp:finish()
end
\stoplua

[NTG-context] luatexing
Hallo,
I have a few silly questions about
tex.print()
To produce
$\sqrt{2}=1.4142135623731$
it should be enough to write
tex.print($\\sqrt{2}= .. math.sqrt(2) .. $)
or better
tex.print([[$\sqrt{2}=]] .. math.sqrt(2) .. $)
but that's both not working. The following instead does the job:
tex.print($\string\\sqrt{2}= .. math.sqrt(2) .. $)
why?
Another question:
What is the differenz between 'tex.sprint()' and 'tex.write()'?

Hello
For a publication project in phonetics and dialectology I'd like to
print the phonetic transcription and the dialect text in a two column
setup. I would be interested to use context for that (more
flexibility than LaTeX), but every new paragraph is printed on a new
page (as Henning Hraban Ramm posted earlier). Is there a work around
other than using two pages?
Thanks,

Hi,
perhaps the streams module can help you? I use it to set texts and
theirs translations on
facing pages. You can find an example below. (It came over this list a while
ago.)
Kind regards
Chris

\usemodule[streams]
\def\StartCouple{\page\SwitchToNormal}
\def\StopCouple {\SwitchToNormal \SynchronizeLeftAndRight
\FlushLeftAndRight}
\def\Original {\SwitchToNormal\SynchronizeLeftAndRight\SwitchToLeft}
\def\Translation{\SwitchToRight}
%%So you put the part of your document where synchronization should
%%take place between \StartCouple and \StopCouple. After that ,
%%\Original and \Translation switches between even and odd pages.
\starttext
\scale[width=\textwidth,height=\textheight,factor=fit]{\ss m-streams}
