Re: [NTG-context] mathfun (Hans Hagen)
Dear Hans,
Thank you for your new module for math.
If possible, I prefer to use
$ \sqrt(x) = \compute\sqrt[.3N] {2} $
$ \pi = \mathexpr[.40N]{pi}$
It is more direct to use and good to write a text in which we need some math
calculation.
It is another good news for me.
I hope it covers at least all the functions in metafun and in lua.
Best regards,
Dalyoung___

Thank you!
I can probably simplify my invoices with such directly calculated output, even
if I don’t need a lot of math, just some addition and tax percents.
But I got no time to look into that ATM.
I also didn’t look into formatters yet.
Is there a possibility for l10n, e.g. replacing decimal points by commas? (At
the moment I’m converting via string and replace.)
e.g. can I "format" from 12.00 (1.5) to "12,00 €" ("1,50 €") or even "12,-- €"
(still "1,50 €")?
(I finally bought Ierusalimschy’s Lua book and hope to find some time for it in
the upcoming holiday week with my children.)

Haven't look at the code yet, but I'd guess `new(a,b) = a + bi`.

Re: [NTG-context] Trouble constructing a drawer rail with MP
Hi, It was in fact not really "working", but it just happened that it looked more or less correct in one case, but not in the other. For example: The path Pkt[1]--dir(194)*10mm for example is not given by the two points Pkt[1] and "Pkt[1] shifted 10mm in direction 194 degrees", but Pkt[1] and the point which is 10mm from the origin, rotated 194 degrees. /Mikael On Fri, May 21, 2021 at 9:27 PM Willi Egger wrote: > > Hi Jairo! > > thank you so much, this is precisely what I need. > > Still I am wondering why this is not working starting at the Pkt[2] but > working when starting from Pkt[1]. > > Kind regards > > Willi > > > On 21 May 2021, at 13:15, Jairo A. del Rio wrote: > > > > Hi! > > > > Do > > > > p[102] := (origin--dir(194)*10mm) shifted Pkt[1]; > > > > and > > > > p[103] := (origin--dir(166)*10mm) shifted Pkt[2]; > > > > do what you need? > > > > Jairo > > > > El vie, 21 de may. de 2021 a la(s) 05:57, Willi Egger (cont...@boede.nl) > > escribió: > > Hello MP Gurus! > > > > I wanted to make a technical drawing.

Vim is universally available and it supports almost any imaginable syntax. t-vim makes creating code-oriented documents absolutely painless (ConTeXt helps, of course). And it makes me scream when I have to do that in LaTeX. So, kudos for that. Personally, I do not think that supporting other highlighters would add much value to what is already there. But if it is possible to make the module more general without overcomplicating it, it might be a good idea. I have only a minor annoyance: I have just noticed that -- is typeset as an en-dash in LMTX (but not in MKIV, as documented). Could you look into that?

Hi Hans,

So I will use the new feature and I’ll put it on the wiki once I have a few

By the way, what does
\complexexpr{123 + new(456,789)}
complex numbers, so (re=123,im=0) + (re=456,im=789)
this uses the xcomplex library that is in lmtx, while ecimal uses the
xdecimal library for decimal precision(as in metapost decimal mode)

So this comparison test won't be 'true'.
As in most of the cases with software, there is (probably) a reason to
it ;-)

Re: [NTG-context] Trouble constructing a drawer rail with MP
Hi! Do p[102] := (origin--dir(194)*10mm) shifted Pkt[1]; and p[103] := (origin--dir(166)*10mm) shifted Pkt[2]; do what you need?

[NTG-context] Trouble constructing a drawer rail with MP
Hello MP Gurus!I wanted to make a technical drawing. However the enclosed mwe does not give me the required results.While the vector from point 1 is directing in the desired direction of 194 degrees, the second vector from point 2 does not as defined point in the direction of 166 degrees.What am I doing wrong here?Thanks for pointing me into the right direction :-)Willi test-rail.pdf Description: Adobe PDF document test-rail.tex Description: Binary data ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] t-vim module: no highlighting for custom filetypes
For some reason, the vim module has stopped highlighting code associated
to custom filetypes (it still works for built-in filetypes).
For instance, typeset this:
\usemodule[vim]
\startvimrc[name=foo]
set nocompatible
set runtimepath+=~/foo/
\stopvimrc
\definevimtyping[foo][
style={\switchtobodyfont[16pt,tt]},
directory=code/,
syntax=foo,
alternative=pscolor,
vimrc=foo,
]
\starttext
\startfoo
let while endwhile
\stopfoo
\stoptext
The ~/foo/ directory contains ftdetect/foo.vim:
au BufRead,BufNewFile *.foo setfiletype foo
and syntax/foo.vim:
if exists("b:current_syntax")
finish
endif
syn case match
syn iskeyword @,48-57,192-255,_
syn keyword fooKeyword let while endwhile
hi def link fooKeyword Keyword
let b:current_syntax = "foo"
If I change `syntax=foo` to, say, `syntax=vim` in \definevimtyping
then the code is highlighted. So, I suspect that I am not configuring
the runtimepath correctly. Any idea how to fix this?
I am using the latest LMTX to which I have added modules as explained
here:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules#ConTeXt_LMTX
t-vim VERSION reads 2021.03.01.

Good point. I don't know how/if searching from source to PDF works in TeXShop when the source is split into several files.
