[NTG-context] Solaris 11 SPARC Support [SEC=OFFICIAL]
Hi, Would you consider supporting Solaris 11 on SPARC? Alternatively if you could provide documentation how to build Context on "SunOS sun4v" hardware would also be beneficial. I have compiled luametatex, but getting below error when trying to create cache and not sure if this is a compatibility issue. bin/custom# ./mtxrun --generate startup error : no format file given, quitting Regards, Michael Wigston Senior Analyst/Programmer, Digital Applications People, Transformation & Technology Group Level 5, 100 Market Street, Sydney, 2000 Tel: +61 2 9911 2426 michael.wigs...@asic.gov.au<mailto:michael.wigs...@asic.gov.au> [cid:image001.png@01DA3FC5.8B11FCD0] Please consider the environment before printing this document.

(This is rather like the Ruby duck-typing approach - if an XML element is mapped, process it, else it is an error). \startXMLignore \stopXMLignore in xtag-pre you can see: \defineXMLenvironment [\s!default] \defaultXMLelement \defaultXMLelement \defineXMLsingular [\s!default] \defaultXMLelement % \def\defaultXMLelement % {\iftraceXMLelements[\currentXMLfullidentifier]\fi} \def\defaultXMLelement {\iftraceXMLelements{\infofont\currentXMLfullidentifier}\fi} %D We can use the default handler to implement automatic %D element hiding. Beware: this overloads the tracer. \def\startXMLignore{\dododefineXMLignore \s!default} \def\stopXMLignore {\dododefineXMLprocess\s!default} so you can play with the default handlers Thanks, looks like I'll have to do some digging in the x-* files ...

[NTG-context] Problems mapping Xml into ConTeXt
Hi everyone, I am attempting to map some XML into ConTeXt as described in the manual XML in ConTeXt. Essentially we have a bunch of tagged text (the XML loosely based on some of the XHTML tags) from which we want to produce PDF letters for dispatch (via email, post etc). I am having particular problems implementing the following commands: - \underbar, \underbars, \overstrike, \overstrikes, \low, \high and \lohi I was expecting that they would all easily be defined using the \defineXMLgrouped [name] {command} element mapping. There is probably something very simple that I have not setup correctly since I am sure that this has been attempted before and would appreciate pointers as to where I am going wrong. The following attempts at mapping element u to \underbar illustrates my problem which also seems largely applicable to the strike, sub and sup mapping: - 1. This def of u does nothing ... \defineXMLgrouped [u] \underbar 2. This def of u also does nothing ... \defineXMLgrouped [u] {\groupedcommand{\underbar}{}} 3. This def of u underlines the 1st character only ... \defineXMLenvironment [u] {\bgroup\underbar} {\egroup} 4. In the mailing list, there is a suggestion that \underbar does not allow line-breaking, so I also tried the following. This def of u works partially, in that it does underline, however it causes havoc with alignment - everything seems to shift over to the right about 4cm ... \defineXMLenvironment [u] \startul \stopul \definetextbackground[ul] [location=text,alternative=1,background=""> \definestartstop[ul] [before={\starttextbackground[ul] }, after={\stoptextbackground\ }] Below is a sample .tex file that I have been playing with: - \usemodule[contml] \autoXMLnamespace [context] % Attempts at defining a mapping for u: - % This def of u does nothing ... %\defineXMLgrouped [u] \underbar % This def of u does nothing ... %\defineXMLgrouped [u] {\groupedcommand{\underbar}{}} % This def of u underlines the 1st character only ... %\defineXMLenvironment [u] {\bgroup\underbar} {\egroup} % % This def of u works partially, in that it does underline, however it % causes havoc with alignment - everything seems to shift over to the right % about 4cm ... \defineXMLenvironment [u] \startul \stopul \definetextbackground[ul] [location=text,alternative=1,background=""> \definestartstop[ul] [before={\starttextbackground[ul] }, % after={\stoptextbackground\fixedspaces}] after={\stoptextbackground\ }] % Other mappings \defineXMLgrouped [right] \rightaligned \defineXMLgrouped [centre] \midaligned \defineXMLgrouped [em] \em \defineXMLsingular [br] [nr=1] {\blank[\XMLop{nr}*medium]} \showstruts \showframe \starttext start of 'normal' \CONTEXT\ text \underbar{This} is {\em left} aligned \blank[medium] \rightaligned{\underbar{This} is {\em right} aligned} \blank[medium] \midaligned{\underbar{This} is {\em centre} aligned} end of 'normal' \CONTEXT\ text - starting xml ... \startXMLdata pThis is emleft/em aligned/p pcentreuThis/u is emcentre/em aligned/centre/p pcentreThis is emcentre/em aligned/centre/p prightThis is emright/em aligned/right/p \stopXMLdata \blank[medium] finished xml - back in 'normal' \CONTEXT\ text \stoptext NOTICE This e-mail and any attachments are intended for the addressee(s) only and may be confidential.
