[NTG-context] ConTeXt User Meeting / EuroTeX 2012?
Hello! I know I shouldn't be asking until after BachoTeX, but unfortunately my calendar for autumn is starting to fill up and there are things that should be settled pretty soon. (And I can't go to BachoTeX to sort things out there.) The page http://meeting.contextgarden.net/2012/ says that 6CM will be held in The Netherlands in connection with EuroTeX on October 8-12. The page also says that the arrangers can be contacted at euro...@ntg.nl, but that address bounces so I had to resort to the list. Are the dates and the place correct and so settled that I can rely on them while planning the autumn program (both work and otherwise)? And whom should I contact about the conference program and such things? I've got a few suggestions for them... nitpicking The page title for http://meeting.contextgarden.net/2012/ is ConTeXt User Meeting 2009. This is mildly annoying as that is the text that Firefox shows as tab name and I always go oops, wrong page even though it isn't. Could somebody change that year to 2012, please? /nitpicking Thanks, Mari ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] Break links into items in the itemize list
Hello all
Once again I return to this issue. Lukas confirmed me that really links
do not work. Where is error when links into items in the itemize list
are not working. Links are active but not working...
It is interesting that the chapter on the links when hovering tooltip
will appear with the page number where the link leads, not the case for
the line item.
Here is Lukas example (my example is bottom )
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\starttext
Go to \in[sec:1] -- \about[sec:1] or \in[it:a] -- \about[it:a].
\page
\section[sec:1]{Sec}
\startitemize[n]
\item[it:a] Item A
\stopitemize
\stoptext
Thanx for advices

No there isnt but its not hard hard to add a separator because its already

Thanks Hans for your feedback.
Can be solved in such a case some alternative? I use this method for a
simple bibliography. Now everything is working OK, I only mentioned the
problem with break links.

That's too bad.
Sounds like a bug, but never having used the other styles I don't
really know.
=(
The aforementioned bibmod-doc.pdf file by Taco is the best
documentation I've found, though it's a little out of date. But it's
worth reading to get the idea of how ConTeXt interacts with BibTeX.
I've read it top to bottom several times now =(
As you say, discussion is a little scant too. I'm a user with a fairly
limited understanding of the bibliography system, but I try to do what
I can with bibliography questions if nobody else is answering.
It's appreciated.
Here's a sample entry from my PhD bibliography:
% TODO is there a better way to cite a webpage?
@manual{acton2011zplotit,
author = {Acton, Gary},
title = {{ZPLOTIT} Software Users' Guide, version 2011-01},
year = {2011},
address =
{\hyphenatedurl{http://paleomag.ucdavis.edu/software-Zplotit.html}},
note = {Retrieved 1 February 2011}
}
... as the TODO shows, I don't consider this a perfect solution :-).
With APA style, this produces an acceptable-looking entry, although
semantically ‘address’ is probably the wrong key for the URL.
Perhaps, but you just gave me a great idea.
\hyphenatedurl allows the url to be split nicely, but doesn't make it
clickable; for that the tricks detailed at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/url should work. I'd guess that
something like
address = {\useURL[dummy][http://www.example.com]\from[dummy]}
should make a clickable bibliography URL.
See I totally forgot that it's basically copying the values of the tags
directly into the bbl file which is already ConTeXt syntax, so all I
have to do is replace the value of the title tag with the url. Here is
what I did and it works marvellously:
@Misc{asymptotic_notation,
author = {Walker, Julienne},
month = {apr},
publisher = {Eternally Confuzzled},
title =
{\href{http://www.eternallyconfuzzled.com/arts/jsw_art_bigo.aspx}{Asymptotic
Notation}},
year= {2012}
}
I've defined \href as such:
\def\href#1#2{\useURL[#2][{#2}][][{#1}]\goto{\url[#2]}[url(#1)]}
It works great and this is what I see:
Walker, Julienne (2012a). Asympt% otic Notation. Eternally Confuzzled.
But why the % string gets inserted in there I do not know?

Yes, it doesn't work though. All I see are footnotes that contain

Also, should it have been \setupnote or \setupnotation?

Re: [NTG-context] MLA Bibliography
Hi Kip ...
I had a similar problem with a bibliography. Supervisor of thesis wants
to have a bibliography in a specific format (sorted AMS like) in which
it can not produce the ConTeXt.
Maybe this is just because I am a bit stupid and I could not correct the
bibliography in ConTeXt and run something similar to what I wanted none
of the conference met, so no one could help me. I finally after many
hours of experiments on all bibliography resigned and I made myself a
simple tool for typesetting bibliographies. But it is only a virtue of
necessity and bibliography entries I we entered all on the line (ie,
exactly how it should look in the list of bibliography), ie. I do that
without specifying a style author = someone, title = foo, etc. That is
to say that if you do not need to have the bibliography in the format in
which we would expect from BibTeX, so I suggest to do it my way (I mean
the format of bibliographic entries in text, sorting items, etc..) All
of this can be done in Lua. In printed form, nobody will know that this
is actually done manually without BibTeX ...
Originally I thought that I can not do, but eventually everything turned
out well. It is true that the bibliographic citations in the work is not
so much (about a hundred).
Good luck.
