The only change I made was that I started using a 9pt modern font than a 10 pt modern font. My document decreased from 580+ pages to 500 pages after that. About your document, I assume you had a lot of Graphics because text only 180MB is too high. I have only few diagrams and my file size is only 3MB.

[NTG-context] Caching Metafun images and VIM Syntax highlighted code
I am writing two books. One is on Rust programming and another is on geometry, so I have syntax highlighted code and in second has lost of diagrams. Perhaps Aditya Mahajan can tell me how can I cache code snippets. Invoking VIM will have heavy penalty on highlighting the code otherwise. Other than that, how can I cache Metafun images so that they are not recomputed on every processing of file. -- Respect, Shiv Shankar Dayal ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___

I see code like # define luametatex_version 210 # define luametatex_revision 10 # define luametatex_release 10 # define luametatex_version_string "2.10.10" starting with C99 these become unnecessary. Rather they should be like const int luametatex_version=210; const char* luametatex_version_string="2.10.10"; These ensure type-safety in the code and are good coding practice.

Re: [NTG-context] installing metauml in context
Hi all,
Thanks a lot for this help. I tried again with modifications and it is working
with wrong alignment. I am tried using simplefonts like
\usemodule[simplefonts,vim,mathml]
\setmainfont[LucidaStd]
\setmonofont[CourierNew]
If I add the above code then it overrides Hanss' suggestion but still
the alignment
is wrong. I am going to try more fonts to get the alignment right.
\startMPinclusions
string metauml_defaultFont ; metauml_defaultFont :=
\truefontname{Serif} ;
string metauml_defaultFontOblique ; metauml_defaultFontOblique :=
\truefontname{SerifItalic} ;
string metauml_defaultFontBold ; metauml_defaultFontBold :=
\truefontname{SerifBold} ;
string metauml_defaultFontBoldOblique ; metauml_defaultFontBoldOblique :=
\truefontname{SerifBoldItalic} ;
input metauml;
\stopMPinclusions
At least prevents the error but alignment is weird. Some pseudo typesetting
is going on and the quality is suboptimal then (after all mp just pastes
glyphs then). Take this:
Class.A (Point) (+x: int, +y: int) ();
It's probably no big deal for the author to support pictures instead of
strings
Class.A (Point) (btex +x: int etex, +y: int) ();
Class.A (Point) (textext(+x: int), +y: int) ();
It's probabaly already possible somehow but i have no time to look into the
code in detail now.

Hi, Finally some success. I get product-name-vimsyntax.tmp when I run context. It complains about not finding product-name-vimsyntax.tmp-vimsyntax.tmp. I kill the compilation and run the command for vim manually which generates product-name-vimsyntax.tmp-vimsyntax.tmp. Then I run context again and I get pretty printing. I am somewhat happy but I do not know why this is happening. -- Best regards, Shiv Shankar Dayal ___ 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 ___
Re: [NTG-context] syntax highlighting problem with vim module
Hi, I am running MarkIV and luatools t-vim.tex shows me the path of t-vim.tex. The version does say version=2008.07.15. I tried to execute the same command which t-vim.tex executes for vim but it says that command line is not correct. I switched on the logging and then I read the log and it says tabstop=8 is a new file. I doubt that something may be wrong with the command line for vim. -- Best regards, Shiv Shankar Dayal ___ 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 ___
Re: [NTG-context] syntax highlighting problem with vim module
Hi,
I updated context and grepped mtxrun for noquotes and the output is
same as yours.
I have a query. Line 270 of t-vim says \runvimsyntax{#2}
Line275: \input #2-vimsyntax.tmp\relax
where #2 is product_name-vimsyntax.tmp.
This means that if the product name is xyz then \runvimsyntax{#2}
which is basically
a run of vim over #2 and it generates the #2-vimsyntax.tmp.

Best regards,
Shiv Shankar Dayal

Re: [NTG-context] syntax highlighting problem with vim module
Hi, I tried on both windows as well as on linux but I fail with the new module as well. The error being the same. I can't find file `xyz-vimsyntax.tmp-vimsyntax.tmp'. One thing I noticed that there is t-vim.tpm file. Where to put it? I have installed texlive 2008 in C\texlive on Windows and /usr/local/texlive/ on Linux. -- Best regards, Shiv Shankar Dayal ___ 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 ___
