[NTG-context] incrementnumber vs. prefixsegments
Hi, i'm trying to combine two features that somehow don't fit together: 1. figure numbering and referring using a chapter.fignr scheme. For this, a setup with \setupcaption[figure][prefix=yes,way=bychapter,prefixsegments=chapter] works fine, as long as i don't have 2. untitled entries below chapter (aka subject or subsubject), that also have to occur in the table of contents. For this, e.g. using \setuphead[subject][incrementnumber=list] \definecombinedlist[content][title,chapter,section,subject] does the trick, but then the figure number prefix gets eaten up at figures in subjects. I'd be glad if anybody could give me a hint on how to solve this. ConTeXt ver: 2012.10.30 21:13 MKIV Below a maximin example. Commenting out the \setuphead line gives back the prefix, but then there is no more subject in the toc, as to be expected: \setuphead[chapter][page=no,continue=yes] \setupcaption[figure][ prefix=yes, way=bychapter, prefixsegments=chapter] \setuphead[subject][incrementnumber=list] \definecombinedlist[content][title,chapter,section,subject] \starttext \placecontent \chapter{Chapter} \section{Section Een} \placefigure[here][fig:a]{figure a}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=1cm]} Figure \in[fig:a] = 1.1\crlf Figure \in[fig:b] = 1.2?\crlf Figure \in[fig:c] = 1.3\crlf \subject{Subject} \placefigure[here][fig:b]{figure b}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=1cm]} Figure \in[fig:a] = 1.1\crlf Figure \in[fig:b] = 1.2?\crlf Figure \in[fig:c] = 1.3\crlf \section{Section Twee} \placefigure[here][fig:c]{figure c}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=1cm]} Figure \in[fig:a] = 1.1\crlf Figure \in[fig:b] = 1.2?\crlf Figure \in[fig:c] = 1.3\crlf \stoptext ___ 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] debian: itemize start=0
Hi, on debian testing this small file \starttext \startitemize[n] \item one \item two \stopitemize blahblah \startitemize[n,continue] \item three \stopitemize \stoptext gives an itemization that starts at zero, plus the continue does not work either (context version: 2007.09.28 16:52 (/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/context.tex)).

Re: [NTG-context] debian tikz module
Thanks Aditya, I noticed just after sending my post that I had removed the debian pgf package before, because it didn't work with ConTeXt. After reinstalling it I noticed however, that nothing had changed recently. It still works with LaTeX but the ConTeXt support realized in the current pgf-version (for unstable debian) is still not working, which - given that it is still based on 1.09 upstream pgf/tikz - may seem as no suprise. A quick and *very dirty* installation of 1.10 worked fine with ConTeXt, so hopefully the next pgf-debian release has that ConTeXt support built in. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] debian tikz module
Hi, when testing the small example from the tikz manual, I got this ... module tikz not found error, texexec stopping with undefined \tikzstyle. On a fresh debian installation, that is. I seem to remember this error from some earlier tryouts but not the solution. Anyone for a hint?

(IIRC, Hans is also a core team member of LuaTeX, so perhaps I should just suck it up with LaTeX until LuaTeX is viable?) No reason for, as Aditya already mentioned. Except if you need some more processing of the TeX contents, like some people do :-( In that case, since the mkiv stuff isn't available, currently you either have to switch to plain luatex or to use ConTeXt with pdftex and maybe weave another layer of ruby around the script onion that texexec had become. Both ways don't really come close to the zen of ConTeXt TeXnology, I would assume. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] ctxtools unix puzzles
Hi, is it possible that the ruby script version numbers are not always updated? I am getting a 648 line diff file when I compare two different 1.3.3 versions of the ctxtools.rb file. One of them, the smaller and older one, had some problems with quotes around environment variables, and it couldn't really upgrade the system because of a problem with unzip and execute permissions on texmfstart.rb The other one has the same problem with execute permissions on texmfstart.rb, ending in the *slightly* dutchified report(): unable to remak formats Or is there a way to call texmfstart.rb from the unix stub files without giving it execute permissions?

[NTG-context] itemize and placefigure
Hi, as soon as I put a placefigure in an \item paragraph, the whole paragraph starts one line below the stopper. Is this a conceptual issue or just a weirdness?

Re: [NTG-context] wiki: debian installation
That's too vague to be helpful. Having written some of the Debian installation materials, I would find it useful to know what places were wrong or misleading so that it could be improved. Good to hear this part of the ConTeXt labyrinth still has some care taking inhabitants ... So, here are some specifics about the experiences following the wiki installation page for Debian. It reminds me of catching a young koetje with too many efforts, and just when you are about to give up, the thing is already in the barn. First of all, why the page is rather misleading: * In the beginning the installation text seems to intend a global installation of ConTeXt, but later on it silently switches towards a user specific one. Latter is fine with me, but do we really have to change the system-wide TeX installation for that? * The system-wide installation is changed without using the debian package system at all. If there is a reason for this, it is not mentioned in the text. Besides, the wiki link to this page says that the installation is intended for people who like to use apt. Well, quite the contrary: this installation procedure is for people who *dont* want to use apt for their context installation, because ConTeXt is installed across different parts of the debian package system, apt is just used to get some general TeX/tetex-packages. I won't go into details here WhyThisIsNotAGoodThing, if it´s all about a box intended for Personal ConTeXing it might be o.k., but most certainly not for a box that hosts different users and TeX flavors, so that it could use a single management interface like the debian one. * In the end, debian works out perfectly well now, as shown below. Plus there is a more debianish way to have a system-wide fresh ConTeXt koetje on your box every other release day (s. below). Ok, so much for generics. Now lets go along the installation text and see what happens on a fresh debian (unstable release 2006-10-02) system: 1. First we make sure to have packages tetex-bin, tetex-extra, lmodern and cm-super and install the new metapost and pdftex versions by hand. 2. What now? Ok, now we are switching to a user specific installation. Where? Any pathname restrictions? The text doesn´t mention anything, but lets call it ~myuser/texmf, just to be on the safe side. A lot of people may never have heard about TEXMFHOME environment variables. It could be helpful to mention it at this point. 3. we download and unzip cont-tmf.zip and then at the end of ~myuser/texmf texexec --make ... lots of output ... used engineformatpath : /home/myuser/texmf/web2c/pdfetex/ TeX binary : pdfetex format(s) : en nl metafun mptopdf total run time : 4 seconds warning : use 'texmfstart texexec' instead Hmm. A warning. Do we have to care? Anyway, lets continue. 4. What now, pt. 2: the big heading says Context first time upgrade, but the small text a few lines above says If you have already followed the *following* steps (my emphasis) which seems a little odd to some non-native speakers, if they notice that fine point anyway: it doesnt say previous steps, it says following steps, the steps we haven´t read so far ... After some ruminations it seems we just have two alternatives here: if you follow these instructions the first time, please do the following if you just want to upgrade cont-tmf, please go to chapter foobar Alright, so we´re doing a first time upgrade, since we´re following these instructions the first time and have an old ConTeXt in the standard debian tetex package. According to the text we should look out for old formats. No search results in any user dot-directory. Our last step generated cont-en, cont-nl and mptopdf format files in ~myuser/texmf/web2c/pdfetex/ kpsewhich cont-en.fmt does only return the global format we created during the pdfetex installation in step 1. Even a # find / -iname cont-en.fmt returns nothing more. This step seems finished, now we tell TeX how to find our formats in the next step by changing the configlets. 5. First, according to the wiki, we need to comment out the format generation of mptopdf, metafun and cont-en, which is controlled by /etc/texmf/fmt.d/01tetex.cnf (we notice that there is no metafun format in our local directory, but maybe thats intentional). We run update-fmtutil. Still just the old metafun.mem in /var/lib/texmf/web2c, what to do about this? No instructions, so lets just leave it at that, and add the {$engine,} subpath string to TEXFORMATS, followed by an update-texmf. 6. Everythings o.k. now? Let´s see: ~myuser/ texexec --version TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texexec :
