Re: [NTG-context] Changing sections, formula,... numbering order

2008-08-23 Thread Mehdi Omidali
Thank you Khaled.
As you said we don't need \textdir in Xetex and I can use \pardir TRT
in this situation. I thought that maybe there is a simple setup for
sectioning number in context that I am not aware of. Any way, I have
translated The not so short introduction to latex to farsi and also
I am translating Context an excursion (due to a number of problems,
somebody told me to use context+xetex for this purpose but now it
seems that I have to complete the translation with luatex) and as you
probably know luatex has a problem with \placeformula in TRT mode (I
don't know if this problem has been resolved).
Thank again.

 \pardir \textdir etc. are LuaTeX specific, it seems that CpnTeXt
 emulates \textdir TRT for XeTeX/e-TeX, dunno how to set par direction to
 RTL in XeTeX though, may be ConTeXt should emulate \pardir as well or
 may be there is some way to do this that I'm not aware of.

 Sorry I got confused, \pardir is what we have, actually you don't need
 \textdir with XeTeX since it will render individual Arabic words from
 right to left correctly and automatically.
