[NTG-context] MetaFun: hlintext: `! Missing `)' has been inserted.`, `formatstr: ! Not implemented: (pair)-(unknown numeric).`

2011-10-14 Thread Paul Menzel
Dear ConTeXt folks,


trying to draw a grid and label it, I get an error when using the (alsa
attached) example from the MetaFun manual [1].

\starttext
\startMPcode
drawoptions(withpen pencircle scaled .25pt withcolor .5white) ;
draw hlingrid(0, 20, .2, 20cm, 10cm) ;
draw vloggrid(0, 10, .5, 10cm, 20cm) ;
drawoptions(withpen pencircle scaled .50pt) ;
draw hlingrid(0, 20,1, 20cm, 10cm) ;
draw vloggrid(0, 10,1, 10cm, 20cm) ;

fmt_pictures := false ; % use TeX as formatting engine
textextoffset := ExHeight ; % a variable set by ConTeXt
draw hlintext.lft(0, 20,5, 20cm, @3e) ;
draw vlogtext.bot(0, 10,9, 10cm, @3e) ;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext

I am using an older version of ConTeXt Standalone.

ConTeXt  ver: 2011.07.22 17:23 MKIV  fmt: 2011.7.25  int: 
english/english

Looking at the log output I could not figure out the original error.
Please find the log file attached.

Searching the Web I found other threads dealing with this issue. But adding

\forceMPTEXgraphictrue

as suggested in [2] it does not solve the problem either.


Thanks,

Paul

Re: [NTG-context] \startmode and \ignorespaces

2011-10-14 Thread Meer, H. van der
I made an example of the effect of this on \doifmode and \startmode. The 
example shows that the appearance of extra space in \doifmode follows a regular 
pattern. The startmode case differs in that respect because 
\startmode[condition-true] has the extra space but \startmode[condition-false] 
has not. In my view that is an unwanted anomaly. A little redefinition remedies 
that as can be seen in the example.

 A little while ago I asked whether \doifmode and friends should have an 
 \ignorespaces at the end. Hans Hagen answered no and after some reasoning 
 (probably along the same lines as his) I agree with him. Thus one uses in a 
 quite natural way:
   some text\doifmode{xyz}{ conditional text} following text
 doing nothing else than: some text conditional text following text.
 With regard to this it is understandable and correct that extra space is 
 taken in the next construct:
   some text \doifmode{xyz}{ conditional text} following text.
 
 But it looks different to me when using the \startmode .. \stopmode pair.
  some text.
 \startmode[xyz]
 some conditional text.
 \stopmode
 further text.
 
 In order to avoid here the extra space one has to code an extra %
  some text.
 \startmode[xyz]%
 some conditional text.
 \stopmode
 further text.
 
 or (not preferred imho):
  some text.%
 \startmode[xyz]
 
 I think this is error prone as it is al too easy to forget the %. The 
 situation here differs from the \doifmode-case. I tend to believe that the 
 fact that the \startmode[] .. \stopmode construct invites one to separate the 
 statements with newlines (whitespace thus). Therefore I would ask if this 
 plea for an \ignorespaces effect at the end of the \startmode[xyz] should be 
 honored.

[NTG-context] Behaviour of \tfx versus \tfa

2011-10-14 Thread Hans van der Meer
I found the following disparity in behaviour between \tfa, etc. and \tfx, \tfxx:
\tfa, \tfb etc. do change mathsize too, but \tfx, \tfxx do not

% These remedy it:
\let\orgtfx\tfx
\let\orgtfxx\tfxx
\def\tfx{\orgtfx\dosetcurrentfontsize{x}}
\def\tfxx{\orgtfxx\dosetcurrentfontsize{xx}}

Is the difference intentional? Or is Hans willing to incorporate the change in 
a next beta?

I wrote you already a few times that you can use the annotation module for 
this. The module serves also as replacement for the fixme module where it is 
necessary to take care that no extra spaces are added when the text is hidden.

\usemodule[annotation]

\defineannotation[fulltext] [alternative=text]

\defineannotation[modetext] [alternative=command,command=\ModeText]

\define[2]\ModeText
  {\doifelse{\placeannotationtitle}{off}{\removeunwantedspaces}{#2}}

Wolfgang,

Thanks for your reply, but I find it takes a sidetrack and does not answer the 
question. Please let me explain.

It might well be that the annotation module does something of the sort, but 
that is not my point. The mode-mechanism is explicitely given as a means to do 
conditional typesetting. If I may cite from the wiki: Very often, you want to 
generate multiple versions of the same document: one version for printing and 
one for viewing on the screen, one version for students and one version for the 
instructor, and so on. .. Or you could use modes - the ConTeXt way of doing 
conditional processing 

Well, that is exactly what I want to do and I fail to see why another module 
(like annotation) should be necessary. Therefore, please do not keep pointing 
me to something that in my opinion is not needed in this case and is already 
fully provided for in ConTeXt.

When I am pointing out something that I think is an anomaly in the behaviour of 
ConTeXt or probably not intentional, it is not meant as criticizing. To the 
contrary, my intention is always to make a constructive contribution. Your 
reply however is not an answer to the question I brought forward. It might be 
that there are reasons for not changing ConTeXt in the manner I proposed on 
this issue. I can live with that, because I have no role in the development. 
But I think it is legitimate to ask why that decision is made. I am certain you 
will understand this.

it's all a side effect of how parses: spaces after a \cs are gobbled so 
any macro that looks ahead has to struggle with this and compromise


you can consider using

\startsetups xxx

\stopsetups

\doifmode{whatever}{\setups{xxx}

inside setups all spaces and line endings are ignores (so an explicit 
one has to be \space)

Hmm. I  don't see it.  Maybe I don't have  permissions for

Hmm. I  don't see it.  Maybe I don't have  permissions for
that. But it's  not that important, since it  is not liked
from anywhere, it doesn't harm.


Only the wiki administrators have the permission to delete pages. If you 
want to delete or rename a page, leave a message on the talk page, and 
hopefully one of the admins will do that.

Re: [NTG-context] nice friends-book with ConText - quite ready

 There are only little things which could be improved: How??
 1. where comes the frame around the foto from? How can I 
 switch it off?

You introduced one pair on brackets too much.

 2. There is a thin white line between layer A and the 
 Infobox. How to rid of it?

I don't see a white line, neither on the image you
provided, nor when I compile it.

 3. How can I get padding into the Infobox? top, botttom, 
 right and left

Maybe there's a cleaner solution, but I misuse the frame
itself for that (see example).

 And here is my code for everyone who likes the layout of my 
 friends-book ;-)

The layout is a matter of taste, but the code is
improvable. Here are some tips:

- Don't write everything in one line! Use indentation. If
  your code is ugly to read, it lowers the change of
  getting a response.

- Make the code compile. At least on my context (not
  really up-to-date) it throws an error.

- There are some images and text files included in the
  ConTeXt distribution. Check
  …texmf-context/tex/context/sample
  Use them (e.g. “cow”).

Nope. I don't see a delete button.

Same in edit mode.

I agree. Especially when I created the page and no one
else edited it in between.

[NTG-context] beta

2011-10-14 Thread Hans Hagen

Hi,

A new beta has been uploaded. Nothing new apart from some experimental 
code and a few bugfixes. I also uploaded


http://www.pragma-ade.com/preliminaries/hybrid-italics.pdf

Files in that path will come and go.

[NTG-context] Fatal Error Return Code 70

2011-10-14 Thread Kip Warner
Hey list,

I am trying to compile a book typeset in ConTeXt. I am running the
following version:

$ context --version

resolvers   | resolving | loading configuration file
'selfautodir:/share/texmf/web2c/contextcnf.lua'
resolvers   | resolving | loading configuration file
'/usr/share/texmf/web2c/contextcnf.lua'
mtx-context | main context
file: /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/context.mkiv
mtx-context | current version: 2011.10.10 13:38

The hardware I am running ConTeXt on is mips64el (little endian, I
think).

The error message with nothing that I can see all that unusual before it
is:

mtx-context| fatal error: return code: 70

...and then it bails.

It’s awkward but this how it works in MkII.


\ExpandSecondAfter is MkII only, so I cannot use it for code that is to be

[NTG-context] Exporting verbatim text

2011-10-14 Thread Aditya Mahajan

Hi,

In the vim module, I use vim to generate TeX code that looks roughly as

~~~
  \SYN[Type]{public} \SYN[Type]{static} \SYN[Type]{void} 
main\SYN[javaParen]{(}String args\SYN[javaParen]{)} \{
System.out.println\SYN[javaParen]{(}\SYN[Constant]{Hello 
World}\SYN[javaParen]{)} ;

  \}
~~~

When generating pdf output, I simply set appropriate catcodes so that
the line breaks and leading white spaces are significant. However, when 
exporting to xml, leading white space is ignored while line break is 
translated to break/. How can I export in such a way that leading white 
spaces are preserved (and ideally no break/ is generated, but I can deal 
with that using CSS).
