IIRC, system modes cannot be reset using \(enable|disable)mode.
there is nothing special about system modes: they just have a * in
front so you can enable and disable them (but of course deep down they
can be set as well)
OK. So the * is just so that they are not accidently overwritten.
But I do not like the different treatment for MkII:
cont-new.mkii
\enablemode[mkii]
cont-env.mkiv
\enablemode[mkiv] \newsystemmode{mkiv} \setsystemmode{mkiv}
One more minor difference to remember.
Ah, ok, I can add that to mkii of course (actuallym, it shoul dnot be in
cont-new any longer) ... I just had forgotten that there was a mkii mode
at all.

[NTG-context] Escaping from modes set for tabulate
Hello,
is it possible to escape from modes (fonts) defined in \starttabulate[...]? I
mean just for header - to escape the math mode and to switch to normal font
temporarily:
---
\starttext
I get:
\starttabulate[|lT|mc|p|]
\NC Code \NC Symbol\NC Description \NC\NR
\HL
\NC Gamma\NC \gamma\NC Self weight \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
And I'd rather get:
\starttabulate[|l|c|p|]
\NC Code \NC Symbol\NC Description \NC\NR
\HL
\NC \tt Gamma\NC $\gamma$ \NC Self weight \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
But simply -- I'm looking for something like (code bellow causes errors):
\starttabulate[|lT|mc|p|]
\NC {\normalfont Code} \NC {\nomath Symbol} \NC Description \NC\NR
\HL
\NC Gamma \NC \gamma \NC Self weight \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
---
Kind regards,
Lukas

Right now it contains modes for Cyrillic, Glagolitic and Greek scripts, older variants included, full ISO 9 support, and two transcription modes as well. (There's a showcase of examples in the manual.) It allows global setups and local adjustments. It splendidly works for me, but maybe somebody wants to review it before I post it on the list, so whom should I send it to? Just one thought on your transliterator: a couple of years ago, Hans set up something a bit similar for Greek. It is based on lpeg, though, not gsub and so should be somewhat faster. If you look at context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-babel.lua you'll see what he did. In theory, this mechanism is general, and all sorts of transliteration schemes could be hooked into it. Might give you some ideas or not...

Dear list, and in particular Hans,
I asked the same question on stackexchange before today
(http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/337738/52406), and got the answer that
what I want to do might not be possible.
In my large document I have exercises (typeset with \startexercise
\stopexercise, defined as an enumeration). Is it possible to use modes
(or any other trick) to be able to compile the same file and get only
the exercises. For example,
context file.tex
should give the full document, while
context --mode=exercises file.tex
should give only all the exercises (or just everything "in one mode")?
You can put each exercise in a block and ask Hans to add a \saveblocks
commands
which writes the content of all exercise blocks to a external file (like
\savebuffer lets
you save the content of a buffer in a external file).
\defineblock[exercise]
\keepblocks [exercise]
\defineenumeration[exercise][text=Exercise]
%\doifmode{exercises}{\saveblocks[exercise][exercises.tex]}
\starttext
\beginexercise
\startexercise
This is the first exercise.
\stopexercise
\endexercise
\beginexercise
\startexercise
This is the second exercise.
\stopexercise
\endexercise
\stoptext
The content of this saved file can then be read by another file
to get a document which contains only the exercises.
\defineenumeration[exercise][text=Exercise]
\starttext
\doiffileelse{exercise}
{\input{exercises}}

Ok, it it’s about such small snippets, consider
\doifmode{mode1,mode2}{Conditional text}.
I don’t think you would get shorter markup with nesting.

How about:
Here is some text that

[varianttwo] {includes}
[variantthree] {is comprised of}
[default]{doesn’t contain}
\stopmodeset
some variants.

So maybe \defineparagraphs[unabridged] \defineparagraphs[abridged] \defineparagraphs[translation] Then one authors the complete work in a single project, but you can produce a variety of versions, depending on the mode chosen: \definemode[unabridged] etc. Can one do this in context?

Re: [NTG-context] using modeset
Jan Willem Flamma schrieb am 11.06.2020 um 10:41:
Dear list members,
I write training manuals and use the Modes mechanism a lot to create
documents at various competency levels using a single set of source
files. So far the manuals have been written in English but now a
separate Dutch translation has to be created.
It is important that the two manuals are setup similarly so the
section/subsection numbers and question numbers are the same in the
English manual and the Dutch manual. Note: I do not intend to create a
manual that has the English and Dutch text at opposite sides (as can be
done using streams)
I’m keen to continue using a single set of source files and thought it
would be best to simply type the translated sections and subsections
just below the original English sections and subsections using modeset.
This gives me the option of creating an English case and a Dutch case.
Within this two cases I would still apply all sorts of other modes using
\startmode and \doifmode.
Duplication is unavoidable but it would make sense to try and re-use the
existing structural elements such as \startsection \startsubsection
\placefigure etc as much as possible. After all, only the title and
caption text needs to be translated.
I tried doing this but in the case of \startchapter using a \doifmode
but the PDF bookmarks text is not correctly generated.
You need
\enabledirectives[references.bookmarks.preroll]
in your setup files to get the correct text in the bookmarks.
I also tried placing a figure in between 2 modeset cases but this does
not work.
See attached .tex file.
A alternative to modes is the selector mechanism to choose between
different arguments.
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\placebookmarks
\enabledirectives[references.bookmarks.preroll]
\defineselector [language] [max=2,n=1]
\startmode[en]
\setupselector[language][n=1]
\stopmode
\startmode[nl]
\setupselector[language][n=2]
\stopmode
\starttext
\placecontent
\section{\select{language}{English section title}{Dutch section title}}
\startplacefigure[title=\select{language}{English float title}{Dutch
float title}]
\externalfigure[dummy]
\stopplacefigure
\stoptext
Finally in the attached PDF below, I noticed that a double space appears
depending on the position of the text and curly bracket. Is this intended?
Yes because you add spaces between the braces and the text which appear
in the output.
\startmodeset
[...] {
...
}
[...] {
...
}
\stopmodeset
Questions:
* Is the modeset mechanism indeed the best way forward or are there
better ways to achieve the desired outcome?
* How can I re-use the existing ConTeXt code as much as possible and
still have the correct English and Dutch title and caption text for
all the structural elements and floats.
There are different ways with pros and contras:
- But the english and dutch texts for each section in separate files
- Use buffers for each paragraph and load the one you need
- Store the texts in variables and flush the ones you need
- Use XML as input and tags your texts which you can filter
- ...

[NTG-context] bug in modes
The following works mirabile dictu:
\enablemode[b,c]
\startallmodes[b,c]
\type{\startallmodes[b,c]} done
\stopallmodes
\startnotallmodes[c]
\type{\startallmodes[b,c]} not done
\stopallmodes %
But the following gives an error:
\enablemode[b,c]
\startallmodes[b,c]
\type{\startallmodes[b,c]} done
\stopallmodes
\startnotallmodes[c]
\type{\startallmodes[b,c]} not done
\stopnotallmodes %
Runaway argument?
\type {\startallmodes [b,c]} not done \stopnotallmodes \blank \par
\stoptext
! File ended while scanning use of \dostopallmodes.
inserted text
\par
* testmodes.tex
\emergencyend
I guess the pairing of \startnotallmodes with \stopnotallmodes is at
fault.
In core-var.tex 234-235 I see:
\long\def\dostartnotallmodes[#1]%
{\docheckforallmodes\dostopallmodes\donothing{#1}}
should be:
\long\def\dostartnotallmodes[#1]%
{\docheckforallmodes\dostopnotallmodes\donothing{#1}}

[NTG-context] table of contents and bookmarks issue
Hi, When compiling the same source but with different compiler options...

[NTG-context] Getting arguments by Lua
Hello,
when I run context by e.g.:
context.exe Source.mkiv --result=Result.pdf --mode=Mode
is it possible to access the command line arguments from Lua?
I'm aware that modes are accessible by 'tex.modes' ('tex.modes.Mode' gives
'true' in this case);
but I'd need to get also the source file name (Source.mkiv) and the option (--result
- Result.pdf).
Is it possible anyhow?

The problem is not caused by the \framed, but by the (lack of)

Because the \startformula is not expanded, TeX does not realise
you are in math mode, so it objects to the ^ character.
This is 'not right' but I suspect it is not all that simple
to fix the context core to do this properly (I would love to be

This is a serious bug. Even a simple example fails with the same

Hi Aditya,
it is more a problem related to horizontal and vertical modes/boxes, you can
test it by placing \startformula .. \startformula into a hbox/vbox and only

[NTG-context] modes + arranging

sorry for the slightly silly example, but it's something I can't figure
out, and it has worked before. For processing my documents, I have
defined a mode which will arrange pages. Here's the silly example test.tex:

\setuparranging[2*4]
\stopmode
\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]
\starttext
\dorecurse{8}{\null\vfill\centerline\recurselevel\vfill\null\page}
\stoptext
When I process this with
context --mode=arranged test
I get the expected output. When I process it with
context --mode=arranged --arrange test
the pages are NOT arranged. I need the --arrange switch for my data, and
I don't understand what's going wrong here. Behavior is the same with
current beta and a slightly older version (06.30).

Re: [NTG-context] \digits get \times instead of \cdot before exponent
We've already got \setdigitmode, \setdigitorder, and \setdigitspace;
it might make sense to create a \setupdigits to consolidate these
setups into one interface. Something like this:
\setupdigits
[mode=4, % --\setdigitmode{4}
% (decimal period, thinspace between groups)
inputdecimalmark={,}, % --\setdigitorder{0}
signspace=yes,% --\setdigitsign{1}; '+ 1.4', not '+1.4'
times=\times, % or times=\cdot
]
+1
P.s: I've been thinking I'd like to write more contexty interface that
doesn't use predefined modes, but lets you setup the decimal mark,
separator mark, the input decimal mark, etc. Something like this:
\setupdigits
[inputdecimal={.}, % input 3.1415926535
decimal={,}
separator=\space,
groupsize=4, % output 3,1415 9265 45
signspace=,] % +3.14159...
That could even tie into \setuplanguage to allow setting
language-specific defaults. Would anyone be interested in this?
+1 again!

For a workaround: explicitly setting

\Umathfractiondelsize\displaystyle = 28.68pt

[NTG-context] Which Table Layout Mode
I'm having great difficulty finding a table mode that accomplishes everything I need: Multi-page: no problem Repeating headers: no problem Repeating footers: don't actually need columns in footers, just a table-wide block containing diagrams and abbreviation footnotes. Must appear on every page, though. 'tables' or 'tabulate' mode works OK. lintetables? Horizontal lines: no problem (except linetables?) Alternate row shading: natural tables work fine, don't see how to do this with 'tables' or 'tabulate' mode. linetables? Forced page break at arbitrary rows: [after=\page] doesn't seem to work in natural tables, don't see how to do this with 'tables' or 'tabulate' mode. linetables?

[NTG-context] Typesetting products and components
Is it possible to determine if texexec is being run on a product or a component and have optional processing similar to different modes? I have a large project comprising quarterly reports and technical notes. Essentially, I have the following structure: project = MyProject |- product = Reports |- component1 = year2005, chapters 1-n |- component1 = year2006, chapters 1-n ... |- product = TechNotes |- component1 = note1, sections 1-n |- component1 = note2, sections 1-n ... ... I would like to be able to typeset a component differently depending on whether it is passed directly to texexec or whether I am processing the complete product. For instance, in each technical note, I would like a title page, table of contents, list of abreviations, and list of references generated if I typeset the component separately. Conversely, when processing the product TechNotes I want a master table of contents, list of abbreviations and list of references generated for the set of components. Is it appropriate to want to do this or have I misunderstood the role of projects, products and components entirely.

If you have the modes defined in a layout.tex you can say in the main file:
\enablemode[times]
%\enablemode[palatino]
%\enablemode[..]
\environment layout.
So by adding the appropriate \enablemode you even do not need to run the

[NTG-context] setting variable on cmd-line
Hello, I've a little feature request: It would be nice, to have a command line option like --setvalue x=y or similar for the context command to define a variable for the job. Modes are already very nice, but often I need just one value for conditional compiling a document instead of many binary switches. Perhaps the context --arguments option is what I'm looking for, but I didn't find how to use it. Another option would be, to make the name of the result-file (context --result=...) available, for example as \resultname.

Hello,
After reading a bit in mtx-context.lua, I've found out how to use
--arguments:
test-file:
\starttext
Value of myVar: \ctxlua{tex.print(document.arguments[arguments=myVar])}
\stoptext
cmd-line:
context --arguments=myVar=myValue test
But this syntax is very strange!
Does
context --arguments=myVar=myValue test
work too ?

I have two questions regarding using spacing in enumerations.

the beginning of
an enumeration (I want to place something in the margin, but it

As shown in the minimal example below, invoking the macro that does

I don't know why, it is probably something very TeX-basic I am

The problem occurs both in mk2 and mk4, I would prefer a solution that
also works in mk2.

[NTG-context] bibliography again: “von” and “van”
The default way to diplay (inverted) names with “von” and “van” is “von Goethe” and “van Halen” in in-text references and “von Goethe, Johann Wolfgang” and “van Halen, Edward”. The problem with this is that while AFAIK the Dutch “van Halen” means that one of his ancestors came ”from” a place/city called “Halen” in German names the “von” is always a sign of nobility. Even long before monarchy and nobility was abolished in Germany by the revolution of 1919 you would not have talked about “von Goethe” but simply “Goethe”–so in a reference it would be “(Goethe 1774)” and “Goethe, Johann Wolfgang von” in the publications list, but still “(van Halen 1984)” and “van Halen, Edward”. It would be nice if you could switch between two modes while invoking the citation. I have not yet discovered where this order is defined.

You can’t use the \translate command to set different texts for bookmarks

What you can do is to use language dependent modes, e.g.
\startmode[*en]

Hello ConTeXist.
I do not know if I'm not mistake somewhere, but it seems to me that the
macro \doifnotmodeelse does not work. Can anyone verify this?
There is no command with this name because there is no need for it and it
won’t be different from \doifmodeelse with the exception that the second
and third arguments are switched. Below is a short summary of the available
mode tests.
The \doifmode{}{} command is used when you want to show/enable something
when the requested mode is enabled.
The \doifnotmode{}{} command is used when you to show/enable something when
the requested mode is disable or not set.
With the \doifelsemode{}{}{} (you can also use the alternative name
\doifmodeelse) you can show/enable different things dependent whether the
requested mode is enabled or disabled.
My bad. I thought that I had checked this when writing the article on
modes. I'll update the wiki accordingly.

Re: [NTG-context] How to test which is current "mainlanguage"?

Hello,
how to detect which language set by \mainlanguage[xy] is active?
How to detect it by a) ConTeXt and b) Lua?
Something like:
\mainlanguage[cz]
\ifmainlanguage{cz}
Do someting
\fi
and
if context.languages.active() == "cz" then
-- Do somthing
end
You can use the modes mechanism for this because you can use ** to
check for the main language (set by \mainlanguage) and * for the
current language (set by \language).
\mainlanguage[cs]
%\language[en]
\starttext
\doifelsemode{**cs}{The main language is Czech.}{The main language is
“\currentmainlanguage”.}
\startluacode
if tex.modes["**cs"] then
context("The main language is Czech.")
else
context("The main language is “\\currentmainlanguage”.")
end
\stopluacode
\blank
\doifelsemode{*cs}{The current language is Czech.}{The current language

\item Two B

\stopmode
\stopitemize
\stoptext
Note that both modeA and modeB are not defined and hence not enabled.
When compiled with the latest version of ConTeXt MkIV, I get: Missing

However, If I use the inline version \doifmode instead of the environment
version \startmode \stopmode, then the example compiles without problem.
I am afraid but this may be a bug.

I get curious. Does anyone here know what column mode (i.e. \startcolumn \stopcolumn, \startmixedcolumn\stopmixedcolumn, columnsets or even the new module newcolumnsets?) they use, and how they get mathematics to play with it without breaking the grid? Also, if I start to write a new document with two columns today (it will contain lots of images and lots of formulas and enumerations), which column mode is the preferred one? Is there any documentation (except the source) for the newcolumnsets? I want to be able to have images span both columns and it would be nice if it played well with sections as well.

I cannot imagine how to accomplish it that way, given my intentions.
Solved it with a global if (not so happy with global code, but could not think
of a neater, local solution).
All other solutions I tried typeset multiple copies of
\startxmlsetups process:topnode (structures the output, collects all
s here)
\global\topleveltrue
\xmlall{#1}{subsubnode}
\global\toplevelfalse
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups process:subsubnode
\iftoplevel
…
\fi
\stopxmlsetups

In my incremental development, I place a bibliography at the end of a chapter, part, or even section - there is no need for this to be backmatter. Using modes, these then can remain or not be rendered as design advances. Again, what is the point of pulling references if they do not refer to anything? In the Latex/bibtex workflow, the list is generated by bibtex, and this can, and does, lead to de-synchronization in a partial development process as you describe. Here, the list is generated and exists in lua, and we take great pains to insure that it remains synchronized.

That works, thanks.
One more question: I used to use modes, since I could just
\startmode[*en]
…
\stopmode
any number of times. There are many language dependent settings in
the environment files.
With named setups I need to specify a name for each occurrence and
gather them at the end. This is not as clean. Is it possible e.g. to
add something to an already existing setup instead of creating a new
one every time?

[NTG-context] no leavevmode
Why is there not implemented in \subsection a \leavevmode at the end of it?
Here a minimal example showing that starting with the first word in an \hbox
encounters vertical mode. Thus requiring a \leavevmode to put it on line with
the following text. Whereas not starting with an \hbox does an implicite switch
to horizontal mode.
I can imagine that this behaviour could be confusing for users not well versed
in the different behaviour of the horizontal and vertical modes.
Therefore my question: Wouldn't it be wise to implement that \leavevmode?

You can’t nest modes in \startmode ... \stopmode.
I don’t know what are the limitations of \doifmode.
Maybe it helps to use additional grouping with {}, \bgroup .. \egroup or
\start .. \stop.
In my courses notes, I insert some blocks (named « Complement » in the
minimal exemple below) when in « Professor » mode. This works fine, as
shown in the first « \beginComplement … \endComplement » of my example

Maybe you can work with buffers or (ConTeXt) blocks (the latter were
recently discussed here, it’s a quite unknown mechanism).

[NTG-context] Can I simplify this to some sort of logic so it scales better?
I have this:

\disablemode[RU]
\disablemode[PT]
}
{

{
\disablemode[EN]
\disablemode[FR]
\disablemode[RU]
}
{
\enablemode[EN]
}
}
}
}
But for every language added this becomes more and more complex. I was
wondering what would be a good approach to simplify it.
I want to make sure that one and only one of these modes is active and that if
no mode is entered on the command line the mode is EN.

Hi Gerben,
I think this may do the trick:
\doiftext{\env{ml}}
{\mainlanguage[\env{ml}]}
\starttext
Document main language:
\startmodeset
[**en] {English}
[**es] {Spanish}
[**de] {German}
[**nl] {Dutch}
[**ru] {Russian}
\stopmodeset%
.
\stoptext
Of course, "--arguments=ml=nl" would be the right option to pass the
language from the command line.
AfaIk, there is not "--language" option from the command line. (This
also makes sense to me.)
Just in case it might help,
Pablo
