Special cases are for instance metapost things, so we don't translate an
instance name 'lessfun'. Again, it does no harm to have the entries but
there is no such 'moinsfun' defined because this is a system key. A
general rule can be:
- things we do in styles that are very unlikely to be done
well in Preview.app and PDF Studio 2019, but Adobe (Reader DC and
Acrobat Pro 9) can’t open the new PDF.
I’ll try to cook up a MWE. Does anyone else experience problems with Adobe apps?

I often need some debugging info to find out what is going on in my METAPOST
code (as I often do not have exact knowledge of what some things do).
MetaPost’s ‘show’ command has limited formatting functionality (e.g. I would
like to add a number as a string to a show message instead of putting
ough the mailing list archives and it seems that

in metapost we have
scaled : upto 4K bp
double : 64 bit floats
decimal : configurable accuracy
complex : dual doubles (only in luametafun)
in lmtx lua we have:
integer : lua tries to be clever but mixing leads to double
float: lua tries to be clever
decimal : userdata arbitrary precision (only
Thank you. That works.

I am trying to get an URL link in a textext() via METAPOST. I’ve got this
before \starttext (or after, tried both):
\setupinteraction
[state=start,
color=blue,
style=bold]
The intended link shows up in blue and bold, but it is not clickable.
I’ve turned ConTeXt tracing on and see
Suppose I have a fixed sized frame, say 3 y 4 cm. And I have a variable-length
text.
Would it be possible to write a macro that scaled the font and line height such
that the text will fit in the frame?
What I have now is very basic:
Fixed width

Aaaargh, no, ignore that, it's nonsense. It's amazing how you can stare at
something for minutes but only see the flaw the moment you press send. Sorry
for the noise.
