[NTG-context] setuptyping
I get some unexpected results with setuptyping. According to the manual the style-parameter has options normal, bold, small, etc. But if I use them I get the option back.

[NTG-context] \hbox and figures
Hi to all,
I guess it's something obvious but...
I was taking a look at the nice cows on p.298 cont-eni:
I cannot understand why in compiling this code test is always one
line down and never on the same line, just on quarter's side. Quarter
is a small figure, and I tested with other small figures, both in pdf
and png.
\starttext
\hbox {\externalfigure[quarter]} test
\stoptext
Many thanks!

[NTG-context] error in patterns treatment?
Installing the latest context release (cont-tmf only) I now get the following errors when generating the format: (/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-local/tex/context/patterns/lang-de.pat ! Nonletter. l.113 .ge5r[ odiaeresis] (/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-local/tex/context/patterns/lang-de.pat ! Nonletter. l.140 .k[ udiaeresis]5ra etc. The same occurred with the french patterns, others I did not test. Changing back to context version of 16-1-2006 brought everything back to normal. Has something in the system changed? yours sincerely, dr. H. van der Meer ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

\hbox {\externalfigure[quarter]} test
If TeX sees a \hbox when in vertical mode, it stays in
vertical mode, simply adding the box to the page. Only
when it sees the 't' from test does it start the next
paragraph. To make the box part of the paragraph, TeX
has to be told to enter horizontal mode first. That is
done by adding \dontleavehmode:

Re: [NTG-context] setuptyping
Thanks. It is of course a minor annoyance, because one can always give the font commands themselves. However, I think it is confusing for newcomers when these things are shown in the manual but will not work. One cannot expect from newcomers to delve into the code. As a result they might turn away from context, which would be a pity. So if you don't mind, I will continue to signal such things. Keeps you busy :-) yours sincerely, dr.

[NTG-context] eqalign name clash

problem.

\eqalign{
a = b\cr
pq = t+1\cr
}

I see in core-mat.tex a macro \eqalign#1 (line 1514). It is new I
think, but its name CLASHES with the standard TeX \eqalign math macro.
I do not think that wise and had to comment it out in my working
copy. Everything being fine again after that.

In general, I think there should be more error- or warning-messages in
ConTeXt, so that one can grep the output for the words error or warning
to test if all is ok. Quite often, you see a problem only in the pdf-file,
but there is no warning message in the output (font issus for example).
In this area, LaTeX is much better...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]Thank you very much for your suggestion - it does most of what I want to do. I have a follow-up question if anybody would like to provide more help! Because lines in \startlines\stoplines with \setuplines[space=yes] can be indented by space characters, I want to set Nindent for the dropped cap to (N * width of space character), so lines can be indented by the exact same amount they would be with spaces in \startlines\stoplines.
Is there a way to calculate the width of some number of characters (or a string of characters) to use as a dimension parameter? For example, a macro that returns the width in points of 5 space characters in the current font? I figured hardcoding the width of a space as a percentage of an em might work, but would probably not be consistent across fonts. Is that true, or is it really that simple?
I'd also be happy with a way to preserve spaces in the text inside the vbox (and ignore any Nindent dimension calculation), because
then I could just add the appropriate number of spaces for indentation
after the \crlf, like this: \vbox{\lettrine{S}{umer} is icumen in,\crlf
2 spacesLhude sing cuccu!}, as I do in \startlines\stoplines.Thanks very much,Adrian Drury
