[NTG-context] Re: defining hashtag simulator
Thanks.
What if we want the text to be copied when it is clicked?
I found these link on the stack site for this
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/174637/copy-to-clipboard-feature-in-pdf-output/545107#545107
also i defined this:
\def\Hashtag#1{
\hbox{\tfa\ctxlua{
str = "#1"
replacespace = string.gsub(str," ","_")
context.letterhash()
context(replacespace)
}
}
}
\starttext
\Hashtag{hello}
\stoptext
i used hbox for making phrase unbreakable.
How can you put all the code in the one Lua function and not need to put hbox
or goto function outside of Lua?

Your guidance are most welcome :-)
you have to fight several issues:
- parshapes being reset at the end paragraph (handled here by luametatex
context)
- parshapes operate on lines, not dimension (i might add an aletnative
one day)
- you use a bit old mechanism (checkout the luametafun-paragraphs chapter)
Now, is there a solution? It really depends on the circumstances, so
here is one.

The "test" position is hard coded but should be namespaced, the ! can be
a \strut instead.
So, more thinking from the end of the text flow.

Hi Miguel,
this should work (also in the sense of a minimal sample):
\showframe\showgrid
\defineframedtext[FunnyText]
[frame=on, align=flushright,location=right]
\def\FrameTitle#1%
{\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}
{\hbox spread 1em{\hss\strut \color[blue]{\tfx Apartado #1}\hss}}}
\define[2]\firstHeadings{%
\dontleavehmode \switchtobodyfont[miCorm]%
\FrameTitle#1%
\startFunnyText
{\switchtobodyfont[miCorm,20.7pt] #2}
\stopFunnyText}
\setuphead [section] [command=\firstHeadings, indentnext=no]
\starttext
\startsection[title=a]
b
\stopsection
\startsection[title=a]
b
\stopsection
\startsection[title=a]
b
\stopsection
\stoptext
BTW, you inadvertely introduce the space here:
\define[2]\firstHeadings{%
\dontleavehmode \switchtobodyfont[miCorm]%
\FrameTitle#1%
Unless you comment the space after the right bracket, it will be
included in your definition of first headings.
As for external downloads, better avoid unless required.
In any case, the minimal code should be part of your message.
Just in case it helps,
Pablo

Is there any way to define an unprotected command and invoke it as

[NTG-context] compatibility between \startshapetext and \startsection ?
Hi all,
\startshapetext works pretty well, but when I use \startsection \stopsection,
shapes are not respected anymore.
I use layers, to be able to place the content anywhere, but the issue remains
without layers.
Any clues ?
(\placeinitial seems also to break the shaping)
Example : 2 pages without sectioning, and after 2 pages by uncommenting the
\startsection and \stopsection commands.
\setupbodyfont [pagella, 8pt]

[NTG-context] index sort order (de)
Hi,
I checked the German index sorting rules, and as far as I can tell, all
of them are somewhat wrong.
– de, default, or no setting (just mainlanguage de)
– Duden
- DIN 5007-1(:2005)
- DIN 5007-2(:1996)
- de-AT
IMO, "Duden" is obsolete, should be the same as default; it makes no
sense to have a default setting that doesn’t adhere to the official
rules. If Û#m not mistaken it’s also the same as DIN 5007-1; maybe there
was a difference before 2005. (DIN 5007-2 and de-AT have their uses.)
The order of umlauts etc. should be ok.
[ß]
In tex/context/base/mkiv/sort-lan.lua, ß is replaced by s, while it
should be sorted like ss in default and both DIN versions. (de-AT sorts
ss after ß.)
[upper-/lowercase]
While casing is not mentioned in Wikipedia
(https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphabetische_Sortierung), Duden „Satz
und Korrektur“ says:
Uppercase characters get sorted the same as lowercase (i.e. mixed), but
if both appear, lowercase comes first.
ATM all German settings sort lowercase behind uppercase.
Generally, default method seems to be not "default" but "before". Does
this make sense?
If we look at the method presets, there’s none for {zm,pm,zc,zm,uc}
(upper like lower, ignore diacritics – basic default for German).

[NTG-context] [installation] "unzipping" gives 0K files on windows
hi! greetings of the day. - ### QoL improvements for installation * on win10 22h2 pc, i am facing problems (attached below) in installing context via [`context-win64.zip`]. * so, i had to run the install.bat again and again. * due to which the same step of "fetching 'http://lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx//texmf.zip'" and "fetching 'http://lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx//texmf-context.zip'" was performed repeatedly * this consumes lots of time, will & internet bandwidth & takes away the focus from other important part of installation So, 1. can `install.bat` (or whatever responsible) pick these zips from current directory if these exist there? of course, it should match their hash from the internet for verifying that these are same zips it needs. 2. rather than blindly removing the zips after (trying to) unzip, the `mtx-install.lua` should confirm if the "unzipping" hasn't resulted in these empty 0B files - as it seems some fundamental issue on windows (description & context attached below) - ### version number i understand that there's [only a 'latest' version, ... no stable release][context_history], * but still where is the version number for this latest shown on web? * i am looking for a plaintext way, i.e. which can be accessed from anywhere without any install. * so, it might be via some "Releases" section on an html webpage, or some file like xml, yml, json, etc containing release versions listing also, please don't use `:` colon or ` ` spaces in version as various package managers use version as directory names. so, my suggested one is: `2025.01.08.T1320` i.e. `.MM.dd.THHmm` i found various places which mentioned versions, but none of those mentioned "latest stable" version: * news on [main_page]: `The Wiki's ConTeXt installation is on version ConTeXt 2024.01.08 11:23 LMTX.` again, it shows the "wiki's context installation". not the release. * installation wiki: [check_installation]: `mtx-context | current version: 2024.04.01 08:59` it is aimed at illustration & outdated. no reason for it to be kept up-to-date. * [pragma-ade] shows: `2024-05-11 12:57 | 118925584` but it seems for the sources i guess? and it uses `-` dashes as date separator rather than dots at other places above. also, what does last column show with '118925584'? - ### details of the problem: * on running `context-win64/install.bat` even as admin & finishing the procedure, the `context --version` is not running. * the `texmf` directory tree matches [`texmf.zip`] (~52MB), but rather than `fonts`, `web2c` being dirs, those appear as files of 0B * similarly the `texmf-context` dir tree matches [`texmf-context.zip`] (~115MB), but again, all the `colors`, `context`, `doc`, `tex`, `web2c` are shown as 0B files rather than being dirs * also the `texmf-win64/bin/` contains a link-file (broken) of 0B with its name in chinese: `畬浡瑥瑡硥攮數` just for records: i have already enabled the developer tools on windows since a long time ago. so, creating filesystem links should work here already. here's exerpt from the `install.bat` run's console output for "unzipping": ``` mtx-install | fetching 'http://lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx//texmf.zip' mtx-install | unzipping 'texmf.zip' 70 files of 706 done,6960406 bytes, 0.083 seconds 140 files of 706 done, 10371456 bytes, 0.151 seconds 210 files of 706 done, 14124718 bytes, 0.234 seconds 280 files of 706 done, 19504148 bytes, 0.318 seconds 350 files of 706 done, 24662280 bytes, 0.401 seconds 420 files of 706 done, 33169752 bytes, 0.484 seconds 490 files of 706 done, 40851921 bytes, 0.583 seconds 560 files of 706 done, 47678981 bytes, 0.672 seconds 630 files of 706 done, 68347030 bytes, 0.818 seconds 700 files of 706 done, 85872915 bytes, 0.943 seconds 706 files of 706 done, 86963093 bytes, 0.963 seconds mtx-install | fetching 'http://lmtx.pragma-ade.com/install-lmtx//texmf-context.zip' mtx-install | unzipping 'texmf-context.zip' 533 files of 5333 done, 88905129 bytes, 0.807 seconds 1066 files of 5333 done, 96885926 bytes, 1.333 seconds 1599 files of 5333 done, 116688474 bytes, 1.911 seconds 2132 files of 5333 done, 125260237 bytes, 2.375 seconds 2665 files of 5333 done, 142877653 bytes, 2.890 seconds 3198 files of 5333 done, 152403593 bytes, 3.375 seconds 3731 files of 5333 done, 160173210 bytes, 3.854 seconds 4264 files of 5333 done, 170072731 bytes, 4.333 seconds 4797 files of 5333 done, 176877135 bytes, 4.791 seconds 5330 files of 5333 done, 183560838 bytes, 5.270 seconds 5333 files of 5333 done, 183587012 bytes, 5.270 seconds mtx-install | installing tex/texmf-win64, 5 files mtx-install | skipping tex/texmf-win64/bin/context.exe mtx-install | new : 31 % : 1315 : tex/texmf-win64/bin/context.lua mtx-install | new : 62 % : 3075584 : tex/te

You can't apply commands which take arguments (like \Mystyle) to pass
content fro TeX to Metapost with the style key. The only solution here
is to create a new commands which takes the content as argument and
combine the frame and shade in the command definition.
\defineframed[Myframe][frame=off]
\starttexdefinition spaces protected Mystyle #1

Very good. You can still try the thing below:
\startluacode
local exp = math.exp
local N = 1000
local xstep = 1.6/N
local ystep = 1.8/N
local xmin = 0.3
local ymin = 0.4
local function f(x,y)
local x = xstep*x - xmin
local y = ystep*y - ymin
local z = x + exp(-60*x) - y
if z > 0 then
return '1'
else
return '0'
end
end
potrace.setbitmap("mybitmap", potrace.contourplot(N,N,f))
\stopluacode
\startMPpage[offset=1dk]
path p ; p := lmt_potraced [
stringname = "mybitmap",
value = "1",
tolerance = 0.1,
threshold = 0.2,
optimize = true,
] ;
p := p xsized 10cm ;
draw p withpen pencircle scaled 5 withcolor "darkblue" ;
drawpoints p withcolor "orange" ;
drawpointlabels p ;
p := subpath(6,19) of p ;
draw p withpen pencircle scaled 3 withcolor "yellow" ;
\stopMPpage
Another thing, Hans added nocycle, so you can write your loop if you want
to use it as something like
def compute_curve(suffix f)(expr xmin, xmax, xinc) =
for x=xmin step xinc until xmax:
(x,f(x)) ..
endfor nocycle ;
enddef;
Then you do not need to think about the first and/or last point separately.

your exp usage:

if you see what huge numbers come out of that, like

you could imagine a viewer crapping out on that because no matter what

[NTG-context] How to place text, but make it completely hidden from viewers?
I have found a few situations is confusing/breaking ConTeXt:
- Footnotes inside tables, figures, frames, margins (won't render the cited
item).
- Custom index items inside those items (displays "entry not flushed").
My workaround has been to define a size 0 font \tfz, then put it in a block
like this:
{\tfz% \starteffect[hidden]%
\cite[author1912] \stopeffect%
}%
The problem this seems to create, is sometimes if placed between two passages,
it interprets a need to create two paragraph breaks:
\input knuth
{\tfz% \starteffect[hidden]%
\cite[author1912] \stopeffect%
}%
\input knuth
It creates a paragraph break after the first knuth, then another after the
hidden text, thereby creating a "double spaced" break between two paragraphs.
Note the above code is used in many macros, so I don't have full control always
where it appears, but its making the double-spaced break everywhere.
Is there either (1) something can enter before this code that essentially has
the effect of "backup to the previous paragraph" or (2) some other method of
hiding text that makes it present on the page, but just not visible to the
reader, that won't create a double spaced break, or take up any space
what-so-ever?

Hello Wolfgang and all,
I have been trying to extend this to handle endnotes. So far, I have not

I could possibly increment a counter for each endnote processed, but
that seems a hack.

Hi,
making wonderful progress on my registers and translating from xml.
There is one thing I can't figure out (and I or some other good soul
may have asked in the past...). Is it possible to mark occurrences in
footnotes? Ideally, the entry in the register would look like
p. 100\high{20}
to show that the term occurs in note 20 on p. 100. But if that's
asking too much, I would be content with applying a processor (say,
italic) to these register entries. From the looks of the tuc file,
Context doesn't appear to "know" that a register entry is within a
footnote. But Hans never ceases to amaze me, so maybe there is a way
(short of applying special markup to these notes in the source)?
You can play with the following example, the main point use to use the
\setregisterentry command and pass the footnote counter with the third
(optional) argument.
\def\IndexPageCommand#1%
{#1\doifsomething
{\currentregisterpageuserdata{footnote}}
{\high{\currentregisterpageuserdata{footnote

Since you typeset XML, maybe you can detect that an index (register)
reference happens inside a note from the DOM element you are typesetting.
Then you use a command like this:
\index[NoteProcessor->sortkey]{index term}
where NoteProcessor is defined like this:
\defineprocessor[NoteProcessor][right={\itx n}]
In this case I'm adding a smaller "n" to the right of the page number of
the occurrence.
Adding the \high style is not difficult:
\defineprocessor[NoteProcessor][right=\high{n}]
but replacing a fixed "n" with the footnote number is quite challenging.
The second argument of \defineprocessor has a "command=\...##1" option
that could be exploited, but I don't know exactly what gets passed to
that custom command as ##1; maybe the page number of the occurrence.
In that case, I'd look for a way to store the association between that
occurrence and the footnote number, and retrieve that in the custom
command.

Below is a different solution to your problem with works without \startlines
because you already mark up each individual line in the poem which make it
possible to add a linebreak in the output.
With \blank options (samepage) you can avoid pagebreaks between stanzas.

\xmlsetsetup{#1}{doc|poem|stanza|line}{xml:*}
\stopxmlsetups

Thanks for this solution. I've had a quick look, and it seems to do exactly
what I need. My requirements are rather simple at the moment, but that should
be sufficient, but to repeat Hraban's question: What would be the advantage of
using the format module?
The module provides features like
- alignment of the verse lines
- numbering of the lines (which isn't supported by \startlines
unless you add the normal linenumbering mechanism)
- support for lines which don't fit on a single page where the
consecutive lines are indented
but the module is outdated and relies on an old mkii style code base.
A big difference between the \startlines environment and the format
module is that the first treats
each line in the input file as a separate line in the output while the
format module requires begin/end
tags for each line which works better for xml input.

[NTG-context] Hbox error with itemized list on second page
Hello,
I'm attempting to format a resume in Context building off of a template I found
online. I'm having an odd error with some bullets on the second page, however.
I'm guessing it has something to do with my \definelayout for the second (and
subsequent) pages, but I can't figure it out for sure. What is happening is
that whichever bullets are at the top of the second page are being wrapped as
if they were appearing on the first page, which has a different layout
structure.
I've pasted a sanitized version of the tex file below. Any assistance would be
greatly appreciated!

[NTG-context] Font switching for titles and subtitle not working as expected ?
Hi,
I just jumbled upon this question on tex stackexchange :
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/715799/context-switching-font-for-both-title-and-subject#715804
Using the style key as suggested in the accepted answer works, but I've had a
look in to this, and I don't understand why the original code does not work.
I've also tried to find a solution using textcommand instead of command, but
that makes no difference. Only one setting will be accepted. As soon as both,
titles and subjects, are changed only the first change will be accepted.
Is this a bug, or am I missing something?
Best,
Denis

I swear I used to understand this stuff. I plead old age. Why do I
get two different results from the float placements here:
\definefloat[mysidebar][mysidebars]
\setupfloat[mysidebar][leftmargindistance=-.25in,rightmargindistance=-.25in,outer,none]
1. You can't pass assignments and keywords to the same argument.
2. The \setupfloat command accepts only assignments as arguments, this
means "outer" and "none" are ignored.
To set a default location for the float use
\setupfloat[...][default={outer,none}]
\defineframedtext [sidebartext]
[width=.4\textwidth,bodyfont=small,corner=round,background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray,align=flushleft]
\starttext
This is a bit of text
\placefloat[sidebar][leftmargindistance=-.25in,rightmargindistance=-.25in,outer,none]{}{
1. You're again passing assignments and keywords with a single argument.
2. The \placefloat commands accepts only keywords and ignores all
assignments, this means your distance settings have no effect.

You can't create unprotected command with interfaces.definecommand but
this not a problem
because you can just use interfaces.implement to create your command
which is then unprotected
by default. Using implement instead of definecommand doesn't matter
because definecommand
is just a wrapper for the implement function with the option to create a
environment.

[NTG-context] Re: QR Code
Hi Ben,
I’m not sure if this is your issue, but the zint library’s API used to
change with every version, so that ConTeXt supports only the “latest”
few, and probably that’s still 2.10 to 2.12.
I still have 2.12 via MacPorts on MacOS 10.15, and it works.
Can you try an older zint version?
And just for information, MkIV used to call the zint binary, while LMTX
uses the library to create the structures and converts them via MP into
PDF objects (no additional files).

Footnotes apply the \tx style to the number in the running text and to
get the same text size with \high you need \tx before the argument.
Another solution is to create your own \high command where you set the
text size as default value but now you have to pass \txx as value
because by default \high already uses style=\tx. When you now combine
the default \tx from \high and the \tx from the footnote you get the
\txx size (which is used in the custom \high command).
begin example
\definehigh[fakenotesymbol][style=\txx]
\starttext
\startlines
test\footnote{\unknown}
test\high{\tx 1}
test\fakenotesymbol{1}
\stoplines
\stoptext

Below is a different solution to your problem with works without

With \blank options (samepage) you can avoid pagebreaks between stanzas.

Your example didn't work for me - none of the Chinese|Japanese[1] characters showed. AFAIK there is no way to "inherit" functionality. You still need to write \setupsidenote to call \setupcounter, \setupframed at the right points to achieve the right effects. What you can do is have \setupsidenote accept all options in one big long list and then pass the ones that apply to setupcounter to each use of \setupcounter, pass on the ones that apply to setupframed to each use of \setupframed and so on. Thsi is releatively easy in Lua where you could define a list of all possible commands and which macro they apply to then loop through it looking to see if that option had been supplied and building a set of parameters for \setupframed, \setupcounter etc. Hope this makes sense. But I feel there's probably a better way - it's a lot of effort to go to in order to have a single "does it all macro" instead of calling two or three macros each time.

Usually, you won't run into this because an empty line works, but with XML that's not am option.) As you've said, it looks like a bug then. The lines environment treats each line of the input as paragraph by adding \par at the end of it and adding another \par makes no difference here. BTW: ConTeXt has a module for poems which can be loaded with \usemodule[format]. Wolfgang Ok. I'll have a look at this module. Just two questions: 1. so did this behavior change? 2. What is inbetween referring to then? If each line is a paragraph, what's this group of paragraphs then? Can you manually switch to the next one? The inbetween setting works because ConTeXt checks at the start of each line whether it's empty (in this case the value is used) or not. When you add a \par you just end the current line/paragraph and it doesn't matter how many \par's you use because TeX just ignores them. Wolfgang I see.

There is nothing wrong, this is just a side effect of the scanner used

BTW, this is the first time I see #_ instead of #1.
There is no way to search for "#_" in the wiki.
Grepping the source, "#_" seems to be used for optional arguments
(mainly in syst-aux.mkxl).
But what are these "#_" (which don’t seem to come from TeX)?
Hans added many additions to command parameters in Luametatex and #_
means the argument to a commands has to be enclosed in braces while #1
allows you to pass text without it.
In the following example \CommandA take in the first case "a" as
argument while CommandB ignores it and would only accept "{a}" with
braces around it.
begin example
\def\CommandA#1{(#1)}

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang.
I tried this approach (I hope it isn’t wrong):
\starttext
\expanded\tolerant\def\MyCommand#_#,#_#,#_#,#_{%
\doiftextelse{#4}%
{#4}
{\doiftextelse{#3}
{#3}
{#2}}}
\MyCommand{}{second}{third}{fourth},\\
\MyCommand{}{second}{third}{fourth} e,\\
\MyCommand{}{second}{third},\\
\MyCommand{}{second}{third} e,\\
\MyCommand{}{second},\\
\MyCommand{}{second} e,\\
\stoptext
BTW, this is the first time I see #_ instead of #1.
There is no way to search for "#_" in the wiki.
Grepping the source, "#_" seems to be used for optional arguments
(mainly in syst-aux.mkxl).
But what are these "#_" (which don’t seem to come from TeX)?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Dear list,
I have the following sample:

\stoptext
I don‘t know why only the command gets the space after right only when
the four arguments are provided.
What is wrong in my definition above?
There is nothing wrong, this is just a side effect of the scanner used
with the \do...groupempty commands. To have more control about this
behavior use the \tolerant modifier for \def to change it.
begin example
\tolerant\def\CommandA#_#*#_#*#_#*#_{(#1)(#2)(#3)(#4)}
\tolerant\def\CommandB#_#,#_#,#_#,#_{(#1)(#2)(#3)(#4)}
\starttext
A: \CommandA{a} xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a} xxx\blank
A: \CommandA{a}{b} xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a}{b} xxx\blank
A: \CommandA{a}{b}{c}xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a}{b}{c}xxx\blank
A: \CommandA{a}{b}{c}{d} xxx\par
B: \CommandB{a}{b}{c}{d} xxx\blank
\stoptext
end example
Another way to avoid this is to create a command with a key-value list.
begin example
\tolerant\def\Command[#1]%
{\begingroup
\getdummyparameters[#1]%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{a}}{(\dummyparameter{a})}%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{b}}{(\dummyparameter{b})}%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{c}}{(\dummyparameter{c})}%
\doifsomething{\dummyparameter{d}}{(\dummyparameter{d})}%
\endgroup}
\starttext
\Command[a=1,b=2,c=3,d=4] xxx\par
\Command[a=1,c=3] xxx\par
\stoptext
end example

[NTG-context] \par and \startlines
Hi,
I'm trying to typeset a poem from XML, but I can't figure out how to make the
inbetween key working here.
As the source is XML, I cannot just add an empty line to start a new group of
lines inside \startlines...\stoplines. I guess, there must be a command to do
that, but \par seems to have no effect here.
How can this be done?
Best,
Denis

[NTG-context] Define a new command that inherits from multiple other command options
hi!
I'm new to ConTeXt. I want to define a command with sidenote function. This
[setupsidenote] command inherits the options of [setupmargindata],
[setupcounter] and [setupframed]. just like [setupenumeration] inherits the
option of [setupcounter].
I've defined the following sidenote command by searching, and I know how to
define a new option for it. But what I don't know is how to get it to inherit
the options of other commands and perform these features correctly.
Any clue is warmly welcome.

[NTG-context] Re: Why don't footnotes appear in floats or figures?
Okay, I've been trying many things with this \startpostponing code--if I
understand what's happening, its moving the figures to a later page. I'm not
sure that's quite ideal, its not fully working with my actual documents, and
leaves lots of empty white space, when I'm already in a situation where I need
to reduce page count.
So I thought an alternative route:
(1) have a code that checks "what is current footnote number?" that sets that
as a variable
\def\currentfoodnote{\somevariableincontextthatgetsfoodnotenumber}
(2) adjust my placefigure macro such that the footnote is outside the
placefigure, but color it white so its invisible:
\define\showafigure{
\cite[author2019]<--somehow hide this invisible
\placefigure{Caption\superscript{\currentfootnote}}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
<--this places a superscript number inside the caption, but it isn't the true
marker(3) in the caption, place a superscript number with value to
\currentfootnoteIts basically a fake footnote, just a superscript number of the
same value as the real footnote.
Shouldn't this result work? Any idea how I can get current footnote value?

[NTG-context] Combine lua and btx setup, was: Re: Customize citation format of a bibliography (use the short form as reference format)
Here is a solution for the first part of my question. This is based on
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg101156.html
and try and error based on publ-imp-aps.mkvi and publ-imp-apa.mkvi:
It display now the citation _and_ numbering labels in the short form:
```
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\startbuffer[testdata]
@Book{knuth1,
author = {Donald E. Knuth},
title = {TEX and METAFONT. New directions in typesetting},
year = {1979},
publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
}
@Article{someother,
author = {Some Person and Some Otherperson},
title = {Another title},
year = {1900},
}
\stopbuffer
% enable tracing
\enabletrackers[publications, publications.crossref, publications.details,
publications.cite, publications.strings]
\usebtxdataset[main][testdata.buffer]
\usebtxdefinitions[aps]
\setupbtx[dataset=main]
\definebtxrendering[bibrendering][aps][dataset=main, numbering=short]
\setupbtxlist[aps][
alternative=b,
distance=.5em,
]
\setupbtx[aps:cite][alternative=short]
\starttext
Knuth developed \TeX \cite[knuth1]
Several persons said something \cite[someother].
\placelistofpublications[bibrendering]
\stoptext
```
The remaining part now is to mark publications of Knuth in a different way.
I have tried this and failed. Here is my code so far:
```
\startluacode
function render_cite(short, author)
print(author)
if author:lower():find("knuth") then
context("[>" .. short .. "]")
else
context("[" .. short .. "]")
end
end
\stopluacode
\definebtx[aps:cite:special][aps:cite]
\startsetups btx:aps:cite:special
\btxcitereference
\ctxlua{render_cite([==[\btxflush{year}]==], [==[\btxflush{author}]==])}
\stopsetups
% use it with \cite[special][knuth1]
```
This has several problems:
- \btxflush{short} does not work as I expected that. How can I get the short
form?
- \btxflush to pass arguments to lua does not work as intended. On the lua side
the
variable "author" resolves to "\btxflushauthor{author}" and not to "D. E.
Knuth".
How can I pass the data?
I use Lua only because I find it more convenient as a programming language. If a
plain tex solution is simpler, I'm happy to use that.
Another question that came up while studying the source code:
What effect have \c!, \s!, and \v!? These commands exist a lot in the above
cited files.

[NTG-context] Re: Why don't footnotes appear in floats or figures?
I've managed to get a minimum working example. If you check, you'll see the
5th footnote inside a placefigure doesn't render anywhere:
\starttext
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
A}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
B}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
C}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
D}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
E}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
F}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}
\stoptext
Is this the correct way to be using the \startpostponing code (see example
below)?
\starttext
\input knuth
\startpostponing
\placefigure{Caption\footnote{message
A}}{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth]}

you need to consider the complications of such notes ...
- tex needs to take the notes into account when determining a page break
- it does so by the insert mechanism
- when floats can't be placed they also become inserts (top and bottom)
- when there are inserts in inserts th eproblem becomes more complex (so
notes inside floats)
- in traditional tex deeply burried inserts disappearm less so in lmtx
There are things that are hard to get right. This works:
\startpostponing
\startplacefigure[location=here,title={test \footnote{oeps 1}}]
\blackrule[width=1tw]
here
\footnote{hello 1} and
\footnote{hello 2} and
\footnote{hello 3} done
\stopplacefigure
\stoppostponing
\dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{tufte}\par}
Because here the inserts (notes) will migrate but even then one can get
them out of order (unless we renumber, which then is sensitiev for
oscillation).
I occasionally wonder if top floats could be done more directly but
bottom notes still would have an out-of-sync problem

[NTG-context] floats re-ordering and numbering
Hi,
I've found that occasionally the order of floats change, but the numbering
still reflects the order in the input file. Is that the intended behaviour? Is
there a way to number to floats according to their order in the (visual) output?
Best,

I have a history text that uses ConTeXt-SBL for the citations, as such,
it has lots of footnotes. Sometimes the footnotes are just in the main

tables that are inside floats, inside tabulations inside floats, etc.
What I find alarming is it is frequently not rendering all of the

I'm kind of satisfied with the publication-list layout of the APS style so I
chose
this as a base. If it is simpler to start with the APA style, I can do that.
My hope is that it is possible to just change the "label" that is used for
referencing and keep everything else as is.
> Is there some specification for your short tag-based citation style?
biblatex implements this with the "alphabetic" style. I'm not aware of
a specification, though. Does the "short" form in ConTeXt exist for a
specific reason? :)

[NTG-context] Re: Customize citation format of a bibliography (use the short form as reference format)
Hello,
The APS style is an example of a number-based citation system. As you
are looking for a tag-based citation, it might be better to start with
something like the APA style.
Is there some specification for your short tag-based citation style?

[NTG-context] Customize citation format of a bibliography (use the short form as reference format)
Hi,
I'm trying to customize a cite format in a bibliography. Currently, I'm using
the aps style which fits so far, except of the plain number as reference.
In concrete, I want to change the following:
- Use the first letter of the last name and the year as reference (this should
be exactly the short form). It is more less also described here [1].
- Highlight publications of a certain author with an extra char (e.g. '>')
Here is a minimal example (lets assume, every occurrence of Knuth should be
highlighted):
```
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\startbuffer[testdata]
@Book{knuth1,
author = {Donald E. Knuth},
title = {TEX and METAFONT. New directions in typesetting},
year = {1979},
publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
}
@Article{someother,
author = {Some Person and Some Otherperson},
title = {Another title},
year = {1900},
}
\stopbuffer
% enable tracing
\enabletrackers[publications, publications.crossref, publications.details,
publications.cite, publications.strings]
\usebtxdataset[main][testdata.buffer]
\usebtxdefinitions[aps]
\setupbtx[dataset=main]
\definebtxrendering[bibrendering][aps][dataset=main]
% this seems to have no effect?
\setupbtx[alternative=short]
\starttext
Knuth developed \TeX \cite[knuth1].
Several persons said something \cite[someother].
\placelistofpublications[bibrendering]
\stoptext
```
It should be rendered as:
```
Knuth developed TeX [>Knu79].
Several persons said something [PO00].
[Knu79] D.E. Knuth, TEX and METAFONT. New directions in typesetting
(Addison-Wesley, 1979).
[PO00] S. Person and S. Otherperson, Another title, (1900).
```
How can I achieve that \cite[something] always renders in the short form by
default?
How can I customize that references to Knuth contain this extra '>'?
How can I customize the APS style to also use the short form in the list of
publications instead of numbers?

Looking at two synctex files, it would seem that the state=repeat version creates a synctex file that has syntax matching the "original" synctex format. And you are right, the file is bigger. In any case, now that I know what is going on, I have convinced auctex to play nicely with the new way of doing things, and so all is now good. Question for anyone who made it down this far: Is there a mailing list or other way that a ConTeXt user can find out about non-backward-compatible changes like this? I wasted a fair amount of time tracking this problem down (*), and if there is some other mailing list I should be subscribed to, I'd love to know about it. (*) Unfortunately, this change to ConTeXt happened around the same time I upgraded emacs from 27.2 to 29.3, and when things didn't work I upgraded auctex from 13.

The --synctex=repeat option outputs a synctex file that works with auctex' epdfinfo program, so (at least when using PDFview) forward and backward search now work with emacs+auctex, at least when you (a) put (setq ConTeXt-texexec-option-nonstop "") in your ConTeXt mode hook (or some other sensible place), and (b) edit the ConTeXt-expand-options defun in auctex' context.el (or redefine the function in some hook) to replace --synctex=1 with --synctex=repeat I have submitted a bug report to auctex about (b) and another item, but I have no idea if/when the fixes will make it into a new release of auctex.

I'd like to write the marking of the very first text at the current page to the
header. That seems to be a bit tricky, at least for me. (I'm afraid that
\getmarking[xxx][top] was intended for that and it is not feasible at all.)
At page 1 the header should read "secA", at page 2 again "secA" (because the
very first text belongs to "secA"), and at page 3 "secC" (because the very
first text (the section title) belongs to "secC"). Unfortunatly \getmarking[][]
does not behave like I expacted.
I understand the keywords of \getmarking in the wiki
(https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/getmarking) as listed below:
• previous: marking at the bottom of the page BEFORE the current page (no page
before then empty)
• next: marking at the top of the page AFTER the current page (no page after
then bottom of current page)
• top: marking at the top of the current page
• bottom: marking at the bottom of the current page
• first: first marking that starts at the current page (no first than behaving
like top)
• last: last marking that starts at the current page (no last than behaving
like bottom)
• current: last stored marking while deciding on pagebreaking between the
current page and the (potential) following page
• default: first
According to these thoughts, I started with \getmarking[Datum][top]. But "top"
seems not to work, there is no difference between "top" and "first", "top"
behaves like "first".
My second thought: Generally \getmarking[Datum][first] would be perfect, so
I've thought something like
\doifelse{\fetchmark[Datum][next] of the page before the current
page}{\fetchmark[Datum][previous]}
{\getmarking[Datum][previous]}
{\getmarking[Datum][first]}
could work. (Honestly I don't know how to do "\fetchmark[Datum][next] of the
page before the current page}". The first page would need a special treatment
too.)
But: At page 2 \getmarking[Datum][next] (Nx) contains "secB" but at top of page
3 is not "secB" but "secC". So \getmarking[Datum][next] does not seem to
contain the correct information I need, therefore I don't get any further.
Any ideas: How do I write the marking of the very first text at the current
page to the header?
Thank you in advance, Matthias
