Re: [NTG-context] Making checkboxes
I ran it with batchmode and silent, so I did not see errors, but it is
not correct.
I get:
! Use of \CheckBoxes doesn't match its definition.
l.19 \CheckBoxes Y
es, No, A little bit
H gives:
If you say, e.g., `\def\a1{...}', then you must always
put `1' after `\a', since control sequence names are
made up of letters only. The macro here has not been
followed by the required stuff, so I'm ignoring it.
So '\def\CheckBoxes[#1]%' is wrong, but what should it be?

If you never need to use a full form of the abbreviation, then you can

I would, however, write this slightly differently (even in LaTeX) as
\math{\text{NPV}_0}
but that is just a stylistic issue.
Is there a recommended way to do this on conTeXt?
The usual way of defining abbreviations in ConTeXt is
\abbreviation [NPV] {\math{\text{NPV}_0}} {full form}
Then you can use
\NPV\ for a short form of the abbreviation and \infull{NPV} for the full
form. The advantage is that you can also get a list of used abbreviations.

My personal point of view is that the so-called political correctness is something I actively fight against, by means of NOT using they or Afroamericans or other such strange inventions. These new words somehow remind me of Orwell's 1984... So what do you write instead? Negro? And what's wrong with Negro? AFAIK, it means black, so it just describes the reality. This is what a word should do, right? And btw, the term Afroamerican doesn't really make much sense to me: what would you call a Negro, born in France, and living in Germany, when you wanted to distinguish him from a white man? (Please note that by man, I mean a human being of any sex;).) To be more serious: I accept that there might be a problem caused by the fact that I am not a native speaker of English. I suspect that somehow the neutral term Negro started being used in a derogatory fashion, and that it might be unpleasant to black people to be called Negroes. And that's why I usually say just black people. So what is your issue here then? You are already working by the rules I proposed: using the words that the group wishes to be called by (or at least not using the words which they don't). BTW, 'Negro' is definitely not a term to be used for referring to black Americans. IIRC, it is a positive term in Brazil. The point is to be aware of these things and to respect people's wishes regarding them, rather than blithely pretending that any name you use should automatically be fine simply because, well, YOU don't see the problem with using the term Negro (for instance). 'Political correctness' can be onerous, and often contradictory to my anti-authoritarian nature, but in the end it is not the Man who issues requests for language changes so much as the marginalized groups that take issue with existing phrasing. Afroamericans, for instance, was deprecated sometime around that year 1984.. It all boils down to whether you care about what the people concerned are saying, which is why I note the author's position when I encounter it. (Rather than throwing their paper away, ala Khaled). Well, onerous might not be the best word. Scary might be better. You see, I am quite convinced that trying to manipulate language by hand is a very bad idea. Maybe this is partly because I live in a former Communist country (Poland); we have seen such things in the past. Another reason maybe that it seems to me that one of the first groups to talk about political correctness (maybe even coining the phrase, I don't know) were feminists, who did so much more harm to women in general than we usually imagine. I understand your sensitivity vis a vis Regime Imposed language tuning. You have got to be kidding me with that anti-feminist talk, though. I'm not going to go there with you, especially after your explanation below. This is always a contentious issue when software/coder types are involved, one of the serious reasons why female participation in IT (in general) and FLoSS (in particular) are so low: many men in these circles will not, or can not, give room to critical complaints. The problem always originates in the person complaining---they need to be less serious, no one around here cares so stfu, etc. This is a serious issue, and this is probably one of the least contentious starting points for encountering it. That theory would be thrown away because it attempts to consciously address real gender inequalities is a depressing thought. I am not sure that I understood your point, but I am quite convinced that the low percentage of women in mathematics or IT is caused primarily by the simple fact that an average female brain is not well fit for this particular purpose. (Of course, we all know notable exceptions. Also note that better/worse fit for one particular purpose is completely unrelated to better/worse in general.) I'd laugh at this if it wasn't the same shit that's been going around for years in the math/IT circles. Socialization is the cause behind this, not natural differences in brain structure. If the society has decided to accept and repeat this fact over and over, and men will generally act as if it is true (pushing out females who make the attempt), then it will come to appear as true.

The point is to be aware of these things and to respect people's wishes regarding them, rather than blithely pretending that any name you use should automatically be fine simply because, well, YOU don't see the problem with using the term Negro (for instance). The point is, is it the wishes of the people involved, or the wishes of some groups who *claim* to represent them? 'Political correctness' can be onerous, and often contradictory to my anti-authoritarian nature, but in the end it is not the Man who issues requests for language changes so much as the marginalized groups that take issue with existing phrasing. Afroamericans, for instance, was deprecated sometime around that year 1984.. It all boils down to whether you care about what the people concerned are saying, which is why I note the author's position when I encounter it. (Rather than throwing their paper away, ala Khaled). Well, onerous might not be the best word. Scary might be better. You see, I am quite convinced that trying to manipulate language by hand is a very bad idea. Maybe this is partly because I live in a former Communist country (Poland); we have seen such things in the past. Another reason maybe that it seems to me that one of the first groups to talk about political correctness (maybe even coining the phrase, I don't know) were feminists, who did so much more harm to women in general than we usually imagine. I understand your sensitivity vis a vis Regime Imposed language tuning. You have got to be kidding me with that anti-feminist talk, though. I'm not going to go there with you, especially after your explanation below. Well, you don't have to. Maybe it would be a good idea to mention that I know some women who have the same opinion as me on feminism. This is always a contentious issue when software/coder types are involved, one of the serious reasons why female participation in IT (in general) and FLoSS (in particular) are so low: many men in these circles will not, or can not, give room to critical complaints. The problem always originates in the person complaining---they need to be less serious, no one around here cares so stfu, etc. This is a serious issue, and this is probably one of the least contentious starting points for encountering it. That theory would be thrown away because it attempts to consciously address real gender inequalities is a depressing thought. I am not sure that I understood your point, but I am quite convinced that the low percentage of women in mathematics or IT is caused primarily by the simple fact that an average female brain is not well fit for this particular purpose.

This is what a word should do, right? And btw, the term Afroamerican doesn't really make much sense to me: what would you call a Negro, born in France, and living in Germany, when you wanted to distinguish him from a white man? (Please note that by man, I mean a human being of any sex;).) To be more serious: I accept that there might be a problem caused by the fact that I am not a native speaker of English. I suspect that somehow the neutral term Negro started being used in a derogatory fashion, and that it might be unpleasant to black people to be called Negroes.

Re: [NTG-context] font size in math mode
Hi Hans, hi guys,
thanks for the explanation!
Does this mean that each time I want to change the font size of the text (e.g.
for a floating object or framed text) I must do this manually for mathematics?
or is there a way to adopt the font size of the text to mathematics? see below
for an example what I mean. Here, I used definetextbackground but the effect
remains in floating objects as well. I tried different font styles and
different font types, too.

indeed, as math is using another font (or more fonts), so best then do:
\switchtobodyfont[small]\bf
or so. An other alternative is to define a few more sizes:
\setupbodyfontenvironment[default][p=0.8,q=0.6]
\definefontsize[p] \definefontsize[q]
\usetypescript[palatino]
test $x$ {\tfp test $x$} {\tfq test $x$} test

the x sizes are just for text while the a-d sized are for titles and so
nowadays the a-d sizes could be defined in terms of larger bodyfont
sizes as font class switching is pretty fast
for smaller sizes you can switch to a smaller bodyfont

[NTG-context] error: unable to define unbatangRegular as \*Myface12ptrmtfa*
Dear all,
Today, I updated ConTeXt Minimal using first-setup.sh in my Mac.
I compiled a file which was compiled well before update.
But I got a strange result in the output.
All english sentences are shown well except korean sentences. In the log file,
...
systems : end file myBstyle at line 4
(/Users/graph/ConTeXtMini/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/type-kor.tex)
!define font: font with name unbatangRegular is not found

!define font: unknown font unbatangRegular, loading aborted
!define font: unable to define unbatangRegular as \*Myface12ptrmtfc*
!define font: font with name unbatangRegular is not found
...
There is no change in the typescript file and the location of the fonts.
Here is a part of typescript file type-kor defining unbatangRegular;
% unfonts batang
\starttypescript[serif][unbatang][uc]
% Regular variant:
\definefontsynonym[unbatangRegular][file:UnBatang.ttf][encoding=uc]
\definefontsynonym[unbatangBold][file:UnBatangBold.ttf][encoding=uc]
\definefontsynonym[unbatangItalic][file:UnGraphic.ttf][encoding=uc]
\definefontsynonym[unbatangBoldItalic][file:UnGraphicBold.ttf] [encoding=uc]
\stoptypescript
% mid-level names:
\starttypescript[serif][unbatang][name]
\definefontsynonym[Serif][unbatangRegular]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBold][unbatangBold]
\definefontsynonym[SerifItalic][unbatangItalic]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][unbatangBoldItalic]
% The fallbacks
\definefontsynonym[SerifSlanted][Serif]
\definefontsynonym[SerifBoldSlanted][SerifBold]
\definefontsynonym[SerifCaps][Serif]
\stoptypescript
...
More interesting thing is that korean defined as bold face is shown. So I
change the whole text as bold using {\bf whole text (english + korean)}, then
every sentences is clearly shown in bold face. I checked luatools
UnBatang.ttf which is defined as unbatangregular, it locates where it is.
ConTeXtMini graph$ luatools UnBatang.ttf
/Users/graph/Library/Fonts/UnBatang.ttf
Both current version and ConTeXt ver: 2010.05.24 13:05 MKIV fmt: 2010.5.27
int: english/english version work same.
Why isn't it able to define unbatangRegular while it can use the
unbatangBold?
I am using Mac, ConTeXtMinimal.
Thank you.

Dalyoung

Re: [NTG-context] How to place a (right) brace in a TABLE?
** Wolfgang Schuster [2010-05-20 13:04:15 +0200]:
'' = Wolfgang Schuster

Hi.
(Sorry for unclear question in topic.)
I want to put a brace (right or left isn't matter now) in a TABLE (may
be another table environment) like in below scheme
a11 a12| a13
a21 a22| a23
a31 a32 a33
a41 a42 a43
a51 a52| a53
a61 a62| a63
Here '|' marks place and elements which should be grouped by a brace.
Thanks in advance, Vladimir Lomov.
P.S. I'm new in context and don't have any idea how to achieve this. I
thought about graphics (metapost) to draw a brace or join two cells and
draw big brace. And, yes I use mkiv and latest beta (context minimal).

Thank you Wolfgang for examples. Now I got idea of background. Nice.
But actually I want something different. I couldn't describe this more
clearly than before so I attach PDF file that shows what I want to do.
(I made it with the help of asymptote: first I made a table in LaTeX,
then the table was put in background and after braces and letters were
placed on top of the table.)
I thought may be there is context (mkiv) way to do this, i.e. one
could specify which rows in a column to be grouped and what symbol will
be put after a brace.
If there is no simple (elegant, context-way?) solution then I have to
use non-elegant (imho, ugly) way: add an additional column with brace
and symbol.
---
WBR, Vladimir Lomov.
P.S. I'm impressed how you made a brace in metapost. I alway wonder how
people could write numbers that gives a nice figure (may be by triali
and error?).

[NTG-context] MetaPost Animation
I am trying to create an animation in ConTeXt + MetaPost. In particular, I would like to have ConTeXt + MetaPost generate each individual frame of the animation, and then I would like to place each of these graphics on the page in succession. I am looking for a ConTeXt way without placing the MetaPost code in a separate source file, running MetaPost, and using \externalfigure. The following MetaPost sample code generate 21 graphics images (numbered .0 to .20), but I have no idea how to have ConTeXt generate these graphics without a manual external MetaPost run and have them included in a way that is consistent with \startuseMPgraphic or similar. Thanks in advance, Troy Henderson path p,q; p:=fullcircle scaled 72; L:=length p; N:=20; for n=0 upto N: beginfig(n); q:=subpath (0,n/N*L) of p; draw q withcolor red; fill fullcircle scaled 3 shifted point length q of q withcolor blue; setbounds currentpicture to unitsquare shifted (-0.5,-0.5) scaled 75; endfig; endfor; end -- Troy Henderson Assistant Professor Department of Mathematics University of Mobile http://www.tlhiv.org ___ 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] Labelling with textext
I'm trying to typeset a numerical label (in math mode) and have space
for a - sign (but not actually typeset the -) after the number in the
case where the number itself is negative. I am trying this
label.bot(textext($ decimal(x) \hphantom{-}$),(x*u,ay*u));
which fails. If I remove the \hphantom command, i.e.,
label.bot(textext($ decimal(x) $),(x*u,ay*u));
the command is successful, but the number being labeled is not exactly
horizontally centered below the point in question since the - symbol
preceding the number pushes it a little to the right. Thoughts on how
to achieve my desired \hphantom effect?
Thanks,

ok, this was the problem:
the math definition files are read and then the column width is
calculated which is used in a second read
as the files to be used now have the mkii suffix, no file is read and we
end up with 24 columns which is too much for tex's calculations
I now intercept that as well as fixedthe loading (to use mkii files)

Perhaps not an appropriate solution in all cases, but the application Pandoc
is able to generate standalone LaTeX files. One has to use something other
than ConTeXt as an input language (it can translate LaTeX input but so far
no ConTeXt; I use Markdown but reStructuredText and HTML are also available.
The standalone LaTeX files generated (meaning they include the header setup)
compile fine, at least the ones I've tested (ConTeXt standalone seems to
require Mk.II).
I must say I'm very impressed with this software. It turned all of my s
into \quotation{}, for instance, and it knows to do {\it italics} rather
than \it{italics}. One could also generate a Word document (via
OpenOffice.org ODT format output). Not to mention HTML.

Re: [NTG-context] What do you miss in ConTeXt?
On 8 févr. 2010, at 12:25, Wolfgang Schuster wrote: Hi all, ConTeXt has many features but sometimes there is something missing, what feature or package do you miss which is already available in another TeX system or unavailable in any TeX system? Wolfgang Hi Wolfgang and all ConTeXters, Thanks for asking us the question. I haven't really missed any particular feature, since each time I wanted to do something less elementary, I found out that the feature is actually waiting there, and I have just to be a little bit patient and look in the manuals or on th wiki. And if I am not patient (that is most of the time…) some wizards on the list are so patient and so wise that they know how to do things. Now, that said, I do all my presentations with ConTeXt, and there is one thing which should be added for more ease of use: a stepwise procedure which can do better than the RawSteps module I use (see http://wiki.contextgarden.net/RawSteps), and which would also work with the simpleslides modules set up by Thomas A. Schmitz and Aditya Mahajan. Another problem one may encounter is that, as far as I know, the Mathematics journals do not accept yet a paper written in ConTeXt. So at some point, when submitting the source file of the paper, one has to « translate » ConTeXt commands into plain-TeX or LaTeX. I wish I had a script, for instance go-back-2-latex.lua (or any other language) which would take as input the file my-beautiful-article.tex written in ConTeXt and turn it to my-ugly-article.in-latex.tex. Actually I do this manually and, despite being time consuming, I prefer to write in ConTeXt and to translate my paper into LaTeX at the very last step.

Taco et al, I think I've found a way. Anthony Phan has written a brilliant stats package for Metapost. http://www-math.univ-poitiers.fr/~phan/statsmac.html I think (haven't tried yet) I can select a number at random from the uniform distribution on [0,1], then use one of Anthony's functions such as: poissonicdf(expr p, lambda). Inverse cumulative distribution function of P(lambda). See Anthony's manual at: http://www-math.univ-poitiers.fr/~phan/downloads/metapost/statsman.pdf David.

All,
Hans recommended I contact the list with my inquiry. I'm running
Leopard on a Mac, using Mactex, texlive 2008. I've updated my context
with:
sudo ctxtools --updatecontext
On a first run of ctxtools, I get this error:
loading : ConTeXt Core Macros / Environments
! Undefined control sequence.
argument ...def \...@ea \noexpand \csname \e!start
\v!setups
\endcsname {\beg...
\expanded ...\long \xdef \@@expanded {\noexpand #1

l.212 ...xpand\csname\e!stop\v!setups\endcsname}}}
I hit s several time to scroll through the errors til it finishes,
then run the command again:
sudo ctxtools --updatecontext
This time it seems to complete with no errors. This seem OK to folks?
Now, I'd like to give MKIV a try. I see the following instructions:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV
Are they adequate for my platform? That is, will they work if I follow
them to the letter? Or do folks have other advice?
Thanks.

You should go back in the thread a bit. It looks like Xan's \index
entry (containing the simple math formula $k$) got cut off just
before the closing $ for some reason that I can't figure out.
btw, i noticed in one of the examples ...
{amplada+mitjan respecte de \mathematics k+1 valors}
so, that's then $k$ and not $k+1$
anyhow, what is the smallest example showing the problem? I can get $x$

Re: [NTG-context] Urgent: Strange index problems
Hi Xan,
I forwarded your 'complete' document to myself but count not
run it at all (my pgf is too old, I guess). At a guess, and
especially because you said it is urgent, you could try this
for the offending \index entry:
\index
[amplada+mitjana respecte de k+1 valors]
{amplada+mitjan respecte de \mathematics{k+1} valors}
Best wishes,
Taco

[NTG-context] Possible Bug(s) in bibl-ams.tex (mkii)
Hi,
1) First of all, I want to say that
\setuppublicationlayout[incollection]{%

\insertarttitle{, \bgroup }{\egroup}{}%
\inserttitle
{, in %

}%
{In \insertcrossref{}{}{}%
\insertchap{\unskip, }{ }{ }%
\insertpages{\unskip, p.~}{. }{\unskip. }%
}%
\insertNote{ }{.}{}%
}
must be:
\setuppublicationlayout[incollection]{%
\insertartauthors{}{}{\insertthekey{}{, }{}}%
\insertarttitle{, \bgroup }{\egroup}{}%
\inserttitle
{, in %
\bgroup\it}%

}%
{In \insertcrossref{}{}{}%
\insertchap{\unskip, }{ }{ }%
\insertpages{\unskip, p.~}{. }{\unskip. }%
}%
\insertNote{ }{.}{}%
}
with \unskip before number (in
/usr/share/texmf/context/bib/bibl-ams.tex) . Else a white space between
coma and precedent text is putting. I used ConTeXt ver 2007.09.28 MKII
but I think this error is in more actual versions.
2) For the other hand, if we want to that publisher is inserted, we have
to put uncomment lines in publisher:
\insertpublisher{}{, }{}%
With this change, context puts me the year of publication. Mysteriously
with the original, ConTeXt puts me the publisher (is this correct Taco???).
For example, in @incollection{millerIIIa2,
author = Charles F. {{Miller III}},
title = Decision problems for groups: survey and reflections,
booktitle = Algorithms and Classification in Combinatorial Group Theory,
year = 1992,
publisher = Springer-Verlag,
address = Berlin,
editor = Gilbert Baumslag and Charles F. {{Miller III}},
pages = 1-59,
series = MSRI Publications,
volume = 23
}
I get (in the past)
C.F M;iller III, Decision problems for groups: survey and reflections,
in {\em Algorithms and Classification in Combinatorial Group Theory},
edited by G. Baumslag and C. F. Miller III, number 23 in MSRI
Publications (Springer-Verlag, Berlin), p. 1-59.
Now I get,
C.F M;iller III, Decision problems for groups: survey and reflections,
in {\em Algorithms and Classification in Combinatorial Group Theory},
edited by G. Baumslag and C. F. Miller III, number 23 in MSRI
Publications (Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1992), p. 1-59.
For the other hand, in @article, for example in
@article{stillwell,
title = The Word Problem and the isomorphism problem for groups,
author = John Stillwell,
journal = Bulletin (New Series) of the American Mathematical Society,
volume = 6,
number = 1,
year = 1982,
month = Jan
}
I think it could be a dot after number, but I can't put manually: if we
have pages after, we have dot and comma. Actually, I think we need if
clause, but I don't know how get it. Taco, you surely do it better ;-).
Always the bib entries should be final dot (isn't?).
3) For the other hand, I think we need a dot between pages and note in
@article. For example in
@article{novikov,
author = P. S. Novikov,
title = On the algorithmic unsolvability of the word problem in group
theory,
journal = Proceedings of Steklov Mathematical Institute,
year = 1955,
volume = 44,
pages = 1-145,
note = Traducció anglesa a l'American Mathematical Society
Translations (2) 9 (1958), 1-122
}
we don't have . Traducció See the dot.
4) Finally, @inbook, I have dot between title and address and year. For
example in
@book{grillet,
author = Pierre Antoine Grillet,
title = Abstract Algebra,
edition = second,
year = 2007,
publishers = Springer,
series = Graduate Texts in Mathematics,
address = New York
}
I get
P. A. Grillet, {\em Abstract Algebra}. (New York, 2007), second ed.
and it should be:
P. A. Grillet, {\em Abstract Algebra} (New York, 2007), second ed.
Well I hope you note this. Not of all,
Xan.

\subsubsubject{Paraules sobre un alfabet}
En aquest apartat farem memòria de la definició de paraula (sobre un alfabet)
i introduirem certes notacions i operacions està ndards que farem servir
posteriorment.
Recordem que un {\em alfabet}\index{alfabet} és un conjunt qualsevol de
sÃmbols, els quals anomenarem {\em lletres}\index{lletres}. Si $A$ és un
alfabet, aleshores una {\em paraula $w$ sobre $A$}\index{paraula} és una
successió finita de lletres de $A$, que escriurem com $w = w_1 \ldots w_k$.
Indicarem amb $\varepsilon$ la paraula que no té cap lletra, la qual
anomenarem {\em paraula buida}\index{paraula+buida}. Quan $w$ consti de dues o
més lletres iguals consecutives, per comoditat, podrem agrupar-les usant la
notació multiplicativa. Per exemple si $A = \{a,b\}$, aleshores $ab^3a^2b$
denotarà la paraula $abbbaab$.
La {\em concatenació}\index{concatenació de paraules} de dues paraules $w_1$,
$w_2$ sobre $A$, que indicarem amb $w_1 \cdot w_2$, és la juxtaposició de
$w_1$ i $w_2$, és a dir, si $w_1 = a_1 \ldots a_k$ i $w_2 = b_1 \ldots b_s$,
aleshores
\startformula
w_1 \cdot w_2 = a_1 \ldots a_k b_1 \ldots b_s,
\stopformula
amb la convenció que $w_1 \cdot \varepsilon = \varepsilon \cdot w_1 = w_1$.
Sovint ometrem el sÃmbol $\cdot$ i escriurem $u v$ per denotar $u \cdot v$.
Si $w$ és una paraula sobre $A$, aleshores $l(w)$\symbol{$l(w)$} denotarà la
seva {\em longitud}\index{longitud+d'una paraula}, és a dir, el seu nombre de
sÃmbols. De forma clara, $l(u \cdot v) = l(u) + l(v)$, per a qualssevol
paraules $u, v$ sobre $A$. D'altra banda, indicarem amb $w(t)$ el {\em prefix
de $w$ de longitud $t$}\index{paraula+prefix de longitud $t$,}. Formalment, si
$w = \varepsilon$, $w(t) = \varepsilon$ i si $w = w_1 \ldots w_k$, aleshores
$w(t) = w_1 \ldots w_t$.
Per últim, indicarem amb $A^*$ el {\em monoide lliure sobre $A$}\index{monoide
lliure}, és a dir, el conjunt de totes les paraules sobre $A$.

que indicarem amb $X^{-1}$, format per sÃmbols $x^{-1}$ per a cada $x \in X$.
Formalment, $X^{-1}$ és un conjunt del mateix cardinal que $X$ juntament amb
una funció bijectiva ${}^{-1} \colon X \to X^{-1}$, de manera que, per a tot
$x \in X$, la imatge de $x$ per ${}^{-1}$ s'escriu $x^{-1}$. Amb aquests
conjunts podem formar el monoide lliure ${(X \cup X^{-1})}^*$ els elements del
qual són llistes finites d'elements de $X$ i de les seves inverses formals.
Enfatitzem que els elements de $X^{-1}$ són inverses formals: si $X = \{a,
b\}$, aleshores $b$, $aba

Sigui $G$ un grup i $X$ un subconjunt de $G$. Aleshores l'aplicació $\pi
\colon {(X \cup X^{-1})}^* \to G$\symbol{$\pi$} consistent a enviar cada lletra
$x \in X$ a l'element corresponent $\pi(x) = x \in G$ es pot estendre de manera
natural a totes les paraules de $X \cup X^{-1}$ de la forma següent:
\startitemize[n]
\item $\pi(x^{-1}) = \pi(x)^{-1}$ per a tot $x \in X$.
\item Per a tota paraula $w = w_1 \ldots w_r$ sobre $X \cup X^{-1}$,
\startformula
\pi(w) = \pi(w_1) \cdots \pi(w_r) \in G.

\stopitemize
Per tant, $\pi$ és un morfisme de monoides entre ${(X \cup X^{-1})}^*$ i $G$.
De forma òbvia, si $X$ és un conjunt de generadors de $G$, aleshores $\pi$
és exhaustiva. En particular, si ${\cal P} = \langle X \mid R \rangle$ és una
presentació, aleshores, com que $X$ és un conjunt de generadors de $G({\cal
P})%$\footnote{Recordem que abusem del llenguatge, identificant $\iota(X)$ i
$X$, i que, realment, $\iota(X)$ és el generador de $G(\cal{P})$.}
, llavors $\pi \colon {(X \cup X^{-1})}^* \to G({\cal P})$ és un morfisme
exhaustiu.

This way you don't really have to adjust it too many times (maybe twice or thrice). Please design a few fancy slides in both Powerpoint/Keynote and TeX, and compare the efforts you should take. Good exercises to follow are Steve Jobs' WWDC presentations and Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth. After doing so, you can come back and tell us that only twice re-compilation are needed to design a good presentation. not to say how to create beautiful 2d/3d charts and tables, make simple drawings, metafun or tikz there is an old saying in China: 站着说话不腰疼.

It is funny to say ConTeXt results will be better... Please try the grid positioning feature in Keynote or InDesign CS4. but even the picture are in slightly different position/size, the viewer wont notice that. As a contrast, trying again and again for tuning/positioning/compiling TeX document (and lookup TeX commands on manual) will distract me from real thinking So unless someone develop a good GUI frontend for TeX, using TeX for unstructured documents (like presentation slides) is always not a good idea. This might be debatable, but I would risk a following statement: if you consider your presentation slides unstructured, maybe it's time to devote more thinking to it... I admit it is easy to create bulletpoint presentations in ConTeXt (even easier than Keynote and PowerPoint, \item will do all the stuffs) But bear in mind structured presentation handout \neq structured presentation slides As far as I know, for most time, the presentation handout should be structured (point 1, point 2, point3.1, point 3.2 ...) so the speaker can cover the topic throughly. However, a structured presentation slide (e.g., bulletpoint) is too monotonous-dull to put the audience to sleep easily. Only by careful reorganization of materials can the speaker makes an awesome presentation. That's why Steve Job's presentations are all unstructured, but the audience know clearly what the key points are, and excited-scream when watching his presentation. TeX and XML are good for creating structured stuffs (books, journal papers) where only item point/chapter/float/ref are needed, but concerning unstructured stuffs like presentation slides, it will be difficult to do that in just a few \items or \sections. But a GUI would be nice in fact, especially for tikz. I agree that in some cases it would be faster to use it than to type everything.

[NTG-context] sagemath in context

The following link on ctan has some examples http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/sagetex/ Do you think it is possible to do a similar thing in Context?

Re: [NTG-context] sagemath in context
Hi, This is a very small package, and it is not heavily dependent on LaTeX. So the ConTeXt module will be easy to write. (it is quite like the gnuplot context module) You can write your own and submit that to CTAN.

There is an open source mathematics software system called sagemath which aims
to be a viable substitute to Mathematica and Maple. The link is
http://www.sagemath.org/
There exists a latex package called sagetex, which allows using sagemath
functions from within latex. The following link on ctan has some examples
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/sagetex/
Do you think it is possible to do a similar thing in Context?
Have a look at the r module in the distribtuion, m-r.tex. It does
something similar, but uses R instead on sage. It should be possible to
copy code from there and translate it for sage.
It would be really
cool if this functionality is added to Context.
Simple things like multiplication and basic algebra can be done using
calcmath. See, for example,
http://www.tug.org/pipermail/tugindia/2008-December/004714.html
But we should not write a CAS in lua. There are plenty of good ones out
there.
What do the experts here think?
How much does it rely on SAGE. For example, one the examples in the
manual says that \sage{matrix([1,2], [3,4])^2} is converted into a
\begin{array}
...
\end{array}
block. Most likely, this conversion is done by sage. Is it possible to
change a few functions in sage so that the output is in ConTeXt syntax?
Regarding graphics, gnuplot tries hard to ensure that document fonts are
used in plots. I don't know how easy it is to do such things with sage and
R.

Pardon me if I have been missing something already explained elsewhere.
it all depends how we define conversions
- numeric (1,2,3,4)
- alphabetic (a,b,c,d)
numeric is used in chapter numbering and alphabetic for instance in
itemized (ok, all can be used everywhere but those are most common)
so, the question is ... how do we define the commands ... maybe we need:
\def\abjadnumerals #1{\ctxlua{converters.abjadnumerals(\number#1)}}
\def\abjadnodotnumerals#1{\ctxlua{converters.abjadnodotnumerals(\number#1)}}
\def\abjadnaivenumerals#1{\ctxlua{converters.abjadnumerals(\number#1)}}
\defineconversion [arabicnumerals][\abjadnumerals]
\defineconversion [persiannumerals] [\abjadnumerals]
Idris ... any ideas about this? We never finished this so it's about time

we can discuss this some time next year or so; it is slightly more
complex than changing a few catcoded because we need to make sure that
modules etc are loaded under a different catcode regime then

Thanks for reporting this.
Hans, in math-ini.lua the unicode slots for top and bot are interchanged
(char-ini.lua is correct). top is 0x22A5 (Unicode DOWN TACK) and bot is
0x22A4 (Unicode TOP TACK). Who came up with these unicode names.

Is this being managed by anyone? Unfortunately, not. Aditya's reply sums it up pretty well. I just want to add a quick note. After at least half a dozen reiterations of this discussion (and it is indeed always exactly the same discussion), I have now reached the point where I no longer feel the slightest need to take any action any more. From where I stand, it seems that the unhappy people just want to complain about, but are not willing to help improve the existing documentation, and that the happy people just want to post pointers but fail to see a real need to improve anything. I'm (relatively) new here (I've been subscribed to the list for a few years, but only recently started to use ConTeXt more seriously), but I'd like to take the risk and add my point of view. I miss a good documentation *a lot*. OTOH, if I were to choose among the uber-community and uber-manual, I'd prefer the first one (maybe that's why people prefer the status quo;)). I would love to help improve the existing docs, though. Having uber-manuals *and* uber-community would smash this poor LaTeX-thing out of the market;P. The question is: what do I do? I post something to the wiki from time to time, but I don't want to engage myself too much - I'm currently involved in at least one *big* project (which is, btw, connected with writing some LaTeX document classes); together with my work (doing and teaching mathematics) this takes *a lot* of time... What's more, I can't really help writing manuals for something I don't completely understand... I myself would be much more willing to spend time on (managing|writing) the manual if there were any people showing an active interest in it. Assume that I finally learn how to use that SVN thing and that I try (in some indefinite time, though) post my remarks on the existing docs, my examples of files so that they could be either introduced into the manuals or deemed non-ConTeXt-esque enough;) or my suggestions of rewriting something: would this help? And a general remark: of course, my point is not to wipe out LaTeX. It has its place. But popularizing ConTeXt would be great (and I'm doing it all the time among my friends!). And good manuals are a *must* then... Obviously, writing a good manual takes really much time (and from some point of view is harder than actually writing code, I guess - it's very similar in maths, when it's way easier to jot down some notes for yourself than to prepare some proof for actual publication...) As I said before (in another post), it's completely obvious for me that neither Hans nor you, Taco, have time for writing a good documentation...

Re: [NTG-context] Experience on writing a thesis with MKIV
Wow, that looks very nice! I hope you do not feel I am stealing your thread now (I do not mean to). I did also finish my thesis (in mathematics) recently, written in ConTeXt. For this I had a lot of help with your doc Using \startalign and friends, thank you. The thesis is available at http://www.math.chalmers.se/~mickep/mp-thesis-final.pdf and a short presentation of the third paper http://www.math.chalmers.se/~mickep/pres.pdf Some comments: * At our university the thesis should be printed on the (not really standard) G5 paper. No problem in defining and using it with ConTeXt. * The bibliography uses Taco's module. I am happy of being able to have different bibliographies in one file. * As a mathematician I was a bit tired of the computer modern fonts (I really like them, but I see them to often), so I decided to go with the utopia/fourier fonts. This forced me to work with mkii, since I did not get these fonts to work with mkiv (This is still a problem, I am not sure how to go on with it for future documents). * Typesetting math worked very smoothly. There is one place where I hade to add some negative vertical space (I could not reproduce this in a minimal file). * I'm very happy with the way MetaPost and ConTeXt work together. * The presentation is inspired by Thomas A. Schmitz' files at http://www.tug.org/pracjourn/2006-2/schmitz/ (thanks!) * The presentation uses Wolfram's Mathematica fonts which I find being very clear. I will happily continue to use ConTeXt in future projects. /Micke P On Sat, Sep 27, 2008 at 6:35 PM, Aditya Mahajan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi everyone, I finished my thesis, writing both my thesis and my presentation using ConTeXt. Thesis: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~adityam/publications/thesis/thesis.pdf Source: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~adityam/publications/thesis/thesis.tar.gz Presentation: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~adityam/publications/thesis/thesis-presentation.pdf Overall it was a pleasant experience, but there were some difficulties. I am summarizing my experience here. Hopefully, others will find it useful. * Layout and Formatting: It was extremely simple to set up the layout and formatting according to the thesis specifications. Due to the ease of changing formatting, I experimented quite a bit with the formatting before settling down to what is in the thesis (The school wanted nothing fancy). * Organizing large projects: The product-component structure made it easy to work on single chapters. However, I could not get correct numbering for the components (If I compiled chapter-02, it got numbered 1). In the end, I was just compiling the whole thesis at the time, since it was pretty fast (~10 sec). * Fonts: Using different fonts with MKIV was really easy. For the presentation, I did have some trouble in getting Euler to work with the minimals. Hopefully, this will be corrected soon. * Math: The math alignments worked very nicely, but I had to do a lot of manual tweaking at a lot of places. Also, equations seem to like to have a tendency of starting on a new page. I tried changing penalties for predisplay and postdisplay (which are set to zero), but it invariably led to bad page breaks at other places. At some places, the equation overlapped with the previous material. I am not sure what was causing this (medium interline spacing, wrong calculation of the width of the previous line, or something else). In the end, I simply put a few manual \break[small] here and there. Being able to write unicode math made simplified reading math markup. * Metapost: TeX-MP interaction is fast and easy. However, debugging metapost errors is difficult because context does not stop compiling on encountering a metapost error. * Bibliography. For a large part, the bib module was very easy. In the end, there were a few glitches with the formatting of the bibliography (too title space between entries) which I had to manually correct. (Look for \help inside the bbl file). The bbl file sorted authors with multiple entries incorrectly. If I had authors with four publications in a year, say 2000, the came out as 2000d, 2000c, 2000b, 2000a. I wanted 2000a, 2000b, 2000c, and 2000d, so in the end I just edited the bbl file by hand. There was also problem with maybe year. If I had 2000a and 2000b in the bib file, but only referred to 2000b in the thesis, the year came out as 2000b rather than 2000. For this also, I edited the bbl file by hand. Overall, ConTeXt made writing the thesis fairly easy. I mean the typesetting part of it. For those who are wondering, ConTeXt does not help with the content of the thesis :-) I would like to thank Hans and Taco for providing ConTeXt and everyone on the mailing list for answering my various questions.

[NTG-context] Some Progress on Installing mswincontext.zip
All, As Idris and Hans expected, Ruby was the culprit. I had installed Ruby before downloading mswincontext.zip, as that was what I used to do in the old days with a Miktex installation. After following exactly these directions: http:// blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/173018 Scite now works on context documents. I tried to add metapost.properties to the global with import metapost. I can Build a file, but the Go command does not work because I don't have gv installed. So I opened metapost.properties and tried changing the gv command to gsview32 (and even tried c: \Program Files\ghostgum\gsview\gsview32.exe), but neither worked. Any suggestions how I can get the go command to work? Secondly, what would I do to compile a metapost file in scite directly into PDF? I am aware of context way with processMPbuffer and other assorted tricks, and I am aware of mptopdf, but what I am looking for is to configure Scite to compile the metapost file and open it in acrobat reader. Here is the test file I am trying to compile. beginfig(1); numeric u; 10u=4in; drawdblarrow (-5u,0)--(5u,0); drawdblarrow (0,-5u)--(0,5u); endfig; end.

Re: [NTG-context] MacTex Update
Hi David,
Recently I updated to MacTeX 2008 which can be found at (thanks to
Mojca…)
www.uoregon.edu/~koch/MacTeX-2008.mpkg.zip
After that, in a Terminal window I just did the usual thing:
sudo ctxtools --updatecontext
and my ConTeXt installation was updated smoothly.
In order to update as well LuaTeX (which doesn't work out of the box),
I have written a script named generate-lua containing the following
lines:
%%% begin file generate-lua
source ok-lua
cd /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/scripts/context/lua
sudo chmod 755 mtxrun.lua
sudo chmod 755 luatools.lua
cd
mtxrun --selfupdate
luatools --selfupdate
luatools --generate
luatools --ini --verbose --compile cont-en
texexec --make --luatex en
%%% end file generate-lua
Then, when I need to have a working LuaTeX, in a Terminal window I say
sh generate-lua
In the above script another file is sourced, namely the file ok-
lua (also sourced at each opening of a Terminal window, since I
have added the command source ok-lua into my .bashrc file) and it
contains the following lines:
%%% begin file ok-lua
export TEXMFCACHE=/tmp
export TEXMFCNF=/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf/web2c/
export TEXMF={/Users/kavian/Library/texmf,/usr/local/texlive/2008/
texmf-config,
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var,/usr/local/texlive/2008/../texmf-
local,/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmfdist,/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf,/
usr/local/texlive/texmf-local}
export LUAINPUTS={/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/base,/
usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/scripts/context/lua}
export OSFONTDIR={/Users/kavian/Library/Fonts,/Library/Fonts}
export TEXMFSCRIPTS={$TEXMF/scripts/context/,$TEXMF/tex/context/base}
%%% end file ok-lua
(In case you copy and paste the above lines, beware of the wrong
linebreaks due to the e-mail client).
In order to update to the latest binary of LuaTeX itself, I use svnX
which can be found at
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/development_tools/svnx.html
Using this application svnX one goes to the following URL in the
window called Repositories
svn://scm.foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex
(one's User name is one's name, and the Password is one's e-mail
address).
Then you download the latest trunk, and once the download is done,
you say
sh build.sh
which builds a binary on your machine. Then you copy the binaries
created with the above command (the script tells you where the
binaries have been created), into
/usr/texbin/
(at this point you need to copy with sudo).
I have done this several times and I haven't had any problem… for the
last two weeks :-)
Then if again something changes in the futur, our gurus (who are lucky
enough to be at the meeting in Slovenia…) will help us!
Best regards: OK

Re: [NTG-context] InDesign/InCopy vs. TeX and friends
One thing that hasn't been emphasized enough in this thread is the beneficial effect of TeX for the scientific community, in particular the mathematical, physical, and chemical sciences. TeX has made it possible to easilyfreely prepare and distribute manuscripts. There even is a preprint server (www.arxiv.org) that accepts mostly TeX, giving worldwide access to many papers that would after their publication only be available through expensive journals. I don't know whether anybody has ever estimated the costs that all these benefits would have if one was using alternatives to TeX. It must be in the billions of dollars. Besides the ability of TeX to typeset formulas and its costs, it is its level of standardization that makes it so useful for scientists: TeX is an extremely well-defined system. My 15 year old TeX files still `TeX', despite changing computers and operating systems multiple times. The only drawback for the scientific community is that there is no easy way to parse TeX into Mathematics, i.e. make the formulas one can typeset intelligible to a computer algebra system. This is of course possible now with MathML.

Hi Wolfgang,
isn't this just a bug in lmodern? In any decent font, \textellipsis in
fact gives exactly the output you get from \unknown here. There may be
historical reasons why the glyph looks that way in cm and lm, but it
certainly is unexpected compared to other fonts.
Or a bug in mkii:
enco-utf.tex:
Line 3055 : \def\textellipsis {…} % HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS
enco-def.tex:
\definecharacter textellipsis {\mathematics\cdots}
try this:
===
% engine=luatex
\starttext
text\textellipsis
text\unknown
\stoptext
===
Another big difference. \textellipsis behaves differently in mkii and mkiv.
Also, the lm ellipsis seems way too packed...
Best wishes
Idris

At least with Century Schoolbook on MkII \textellipsis is vertically
shifted (like the colon · ), while \unknown or \dots sits on the
baseline (…).
