This depends on how exactly you have input that line (which
in turn nicely demonstrates why you should post minimal examples,
instead of out-of-context questions).
I tried:
% engine=luatex
\starttext
\directlua0 {tex.print('$\\sqrt{2}=1.4142135623731$')}
\ctxlua{tex.print('$\\sqrt{2}=1.4142135623731$')}
\startluacode
tex.print('$\\sqrt{2}=1.4142135623731$')
\stopluacode
\stoptext
And all three work as they should. So what did you input, exactly, that
gave wrong results?

Taco

Re: [NTG-context] urw-garamond with MKIV
Peter Münster wrote:
Hello,
This does no more work with MKIV:
I can tell you the cause of the problem:
context mkiv loads the font from the AFM files in unicode mode,
but the typescript defines TFM fonts in texnansi only. This
results in mayhem (I am not sure what exactly goes wrong, but
that does not really matter).
If you want existing tfms to have precedence over any afms
(thereby loosing unicode support for legacy fonts) you can add
this to cont-sys or the top of your input:
\ctxlua{fonts.define.method=2}
Otherwise, you will have to extend type-urwgaramand.tex in some
way that I do not quite grasp.

Re: [NTG-context] two easy xml-questions
Thomas A. Schmitz wrote:
Hi gang,
speaking of xml... I have two easy questions, but can't find an
answer. It's about tweaking the pdf-output I get:
1. How do you add an additional hyphenation to a word? How would I
enter the equivalent of super\-duper in an xml-file? I tried
superaddhyphen;duper with this definition:
\defineXMLentity[addhyphen]{\-}
in my environment, but this doesn't seem to work.
Needs an example file, because
\defineXMLentity[addhyphen]{\-}
\starttext
\hsize 1in
\startXMLdata
I tried superaddhyphen;duper
\stopXMLdata
\stoptext
works in both mkii and mkiv.
2. Similar question: how to prevent an unwanted ligature, esp. in
German? In TeX, I write Kauf{}laden. What would be a good way to do
this in xml? I was thinking of Kaufnolig;laden and
\defineXMLentity[nolig]{\kern0pt}
That should work, but probably better is:
\defineXMLentity[nolig]{\prewordbreak\kern0pt\postwordbreak}
because the \kern will disable hyphenation, otherwise.
In mkii, just
\defineXMLentity[nolig]{{}}
also works (but not in mkiv, and that is a feature).
Best wishes,
Taco

I thought 'plain.mem' is the default. But I see, there exists only

If you want to do the low-level thing, you have to read the
luatex manual carefully. MPlib is just like standalone metapost
in that it wants to load a mem file in non-ini mode, and that
file has to be generated before being used. Here is what you
wanted to do, using just the library core (I did cheat just a
little bit though, I added dump; at the end of my plain.mp):
% start low-level
\startlua
local function finder(name, mode, ftype)
if mode==w then
return name
else
return kpse.find_file(name,ftype)
end
end
mp = mplib.new ( {
hash_size = 10,
main_memory = 200,
param_size = 10,
find_file = finder,
ini_version = true
} )
if mp then
res = mp:execute('plain')
mp:finish()
end
mp = mplib.new ( {
hash_size = 10,
main_memory = 200,

res = mp:execute(\\beginfig(1) draw (0,0) .. (1,1) .. (2,1);
endfig; bye; )
tex.print([ .. tostring(res.status) .. ])
mp:finish()
end
\stoplua
% stop low-level
If you just want to run plain metapost images inside of
a context document (instead of metafun), it is much easier
to use Hans' high-level API (once again, you need dump;
at the end of plain.mp):
\startlua
metapost.process(
metapost.format(plain),
beginfig(0); draw (0,0) .. (1,1) .. (2,1); endfig;)
\stoplua
This makes sure that all memory values are the same,
that the mem file is cached inbetween runs, removes the
need for \\ and bye; etc.
Best wishes,
Taco

I have now used a wrapper to skip that line in LuaTeX (btw: what's the

it make sense to define \let\forceMPTEXcheck\empty in mkiv perhaps?
best make a
yourmodule.tex
yourmodule.mkii
yourmodule.mkiv
and in the tex file adds:
\loadmarkfile{yourmodule}
OK, once I rewrite some more code than a few lines, I will split it
(but now there are really only minor, one-line patches).
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
ok, another fake
Thanks. Still - I don't know if it's still needed at all and what
exactly it was used for (maybe metapost has complained about too long
lines long time ago).
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?
well, that everything now can be 'textext'
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.
hm, so \sometxt is not working? i thought that i tested it (maybe not
... too much to test)
\sometxt is working, only some Aditya's extensions complain. I will
test a bit, try to rewrite some bits and pieces, collect the missing
parts and report back.
\long\def\redofiltersometxt[#1]%
{\doifnextcharelse[{\reredofiltersometxt[#1]}{\redodofiltersometxt[#1]}}
\long\def\redodofiltersometxt[#1]#2%

\long\def\reredofiltersometxt[#1][#2]#3%
{\increment\txtcounter
\TeXtext[#1]\txtcounter{\switchtobodyfont[#2]\strut#3}%
\filtersometxt}
i think that we have it in the core
You have added the ability to use
\sometxt[something]{abc}
with a background definition of:
\definetextext[something]{\strut}
but I wanted to have two square brackets and Aditya has written a
small patch which does that. Let me explore a bit more in the new mkiv
sources and report back.
anyhow, just collects what does not work
(btw, i fixed something in textext ... i used to work only for code
passed as mpgraphic, but now it works also with libraries and so)
Thanks :) I didn't notice any weird behaviour so far, but I'm glad
that it's away before I started complaining about it :) :P

I think either
/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/base/luat-env.tex

luatools --generate command is needed.
You can check the \contextversion by looking at
/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/base/context.tex
around line 45, it should say
\edef\contextversion{2008.04.11 14:48}
There can be some more esoteric causes, but these are the two most
likely ones.
in previou sversions the env was loaded runtime (this behaviour
originated in the stepwise development of embedding bytecodes in the

to get rid of that; in addition to taco's suggestions ... so it could be
that old code and new code is mixed.

$\sqrt{2}=1.4142135623731$
it should be enough to write
tex.print($\\sqrt{2}= .. math.sqrt(2) .. $)
this is because \\ can mean anything, for instance it may expand to
\par or \crlf or ..
May be I do not understand this right, but I thought that '\' is luas
escape character and tex.print() returns '\' not '\\'. So TeX sees no
macro '\\' which could expand to whatever.
it depends on where you code lives ... in a lua file, then \\ is an
escape, in \directlua (or \ctxlua cum suis), then it's a tex cs
your mail only shows the one line of code so we have to guess
there is a \luaescapestring primitive which catches things like
quotes
Can you make a little example of usage?
tex.print(\detokenize{$\sqrt{2}=} .. math.sqrt(2) .. $)
well, if you put that in your document, you'l get a typeset tex.sprint,
so i assume that tis is wrapped in \directlua or so?
Could not find the definition of \detokenize.
an etex primitive

At the moment, I do not trust the API enough to expose it to anything except controlled environments (lua mplib, newmpost) Isn't mplib a dll under windows? It is possible to build the unix version as a .so because support for that comes from autofoo automatically, but that is not yet officially supported: debugging dynamic libraries is harder than debugging static code. On the other side, it is very easy to replace a dll by a new version, if the interface stays stable. sure, but it also introduced unneeded mails on support lists of users who mix up things; we'd probably end up with the same situation as kpse ... mplib234.dll and so, which does not improve things either If there is more than one program, which is using mplib, you have to update all theses programs, if you make some mplib changes. indeed, but contrary to tex livem where all binaries are updated in sync, for moving targets like luatex we want to be sure that things match; disk space is cheap, and telling user to download 'this' and 'that' and put 'such' and 'so' in locations 'here' and 'there' is more trouble than let them just download one binary etc But I think that a dll could very much boost the metapost usage. It would than be very easy to write third party software. maybe, but that is independent of being used in luatex and mpost itself; as taco mentioned, there it will be staticaly linked, just as lua and its libs Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ 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] small caps and old numbers with open type fonts
Hello list, I'm still playing with a few otf fonts and enjoying the way ConTeXt works :) I'm now playing with a beautiful Garamond. I try to typeset a few things with old-style numbers and, well, the output contains old-style numbers but not in my Garamond (it seems to be in latin modern). What should I do to use the old-style numbers of my font? Did a miss a doc about that? Or did I missunderstood the \os command (I thought it was a switch to the old-style of the font but it seems rather to change of font)? I actually use my font as simple as possible with a \definefont[boum][MyFont at 12pt]. Is it the problem? It the same with the \sc command.
