Re: [NTG-context] margin notes (was: lmtx update)
Hi Hraban,
Thanks for the hint… indeed I did see that \ColWidth command but didn't think
about its definition… Sorry!
Now with \ColWidth defined, your code works fine and it has the advantage that
the text of the sidenote begins in the margin at the level where the \footnote
command appears. However, it cannot control the overflow of a sidenote to the
next page, whereas the code given by Hans can do that. I admit that this does
not happen very often since a well designed text should not have too many long
sidenotes…
In case other users would like to use your code, I put the whole example below.

Of course it’s not \footnote that is undefined but something else from my code
– I didn’t take the time to strip it of all the references to other setups in

I recognized it doesn’t work otherwise. But I thought TeX would always use the

I tried to simplify and couldn’t remember which command I needed when I had the
\index{\something} problem (probably something similar, i.e. a self defined
command that changed the text of the index entry).

\Ort[kursiv->]{Hamburg} works.
You mentioned only \index{\emph{...}} in your mail ...
You can avoid a few problems when you move the \index command to Lua and use
context.index or you use a pure TeX solution.
begin lua example
function userdata.index(name)
local indexentry = userdata.lookup[name] or name
context.index(indexentry)
end
That’s nice, but since I use different registers, I’d need to define that
function for each. Since I also use several shortcuts (e.g. \TOrt, \TFOrt,
\TPerson, \TFPerson) I would multiply the effort on the Lua side.
I find my TeX definitions (like above) shorter, where I can use the same Lua
function for each.
With your code I could at least shorten it to:
function userdata.Lookup(name)
context(userdata.Lookups[name] or name)
end
begin tex example
Oh, this is also nice. But isn’t the Lua version faster? (I have >600 person
entries and a few hundred locations).
Hard to say without testing but the difference can be ignored because
\index itself is what take processing time.

Hi Hraban,
Thank you for taking the time to send your code for sidenotes.

Thank you, but that doesn’t work if my lookup e.g. creates
"Garmisch-Partenkirchen" from "Partenkirchen".

Hi,
besides the CG journal I’m working on a scientific biography with huge person

In many cases, the author wants additional information in the index, e.g.
\Locality{Altona (Hamburg)}
\Locality{Breslau (pol. Wrocław)}
or
\Person{Arends, Katharina (née Schoemaker)}
\Person{Wilhelm II. (Kaiser)}
Now, I need that consistent and I don’t want to type these complicated entries
every time.
I’m looking for a good way to handle this – maybe a lookup table in Lua, so that
\LookupPerson{Willy II}
would call a Lua function that returns
\Person{Wilhelm II. (Kaiser)}
?
Or is there already something in place that I overlooked, like
\OverwriteIndexEntry{Hraban}{Ramm, Henning Hraban}
?
I came up with:
\startluacode
user.Lookups = {
["Albano"] = "Albano (Provinz Rom)",
["Altona"] = "Altona (Hamburg)",
["Aurich"] = "Aurich (Ostfriesland)"
}
function user.Lookup(Name)

You have to expand the \index argument:
\define[1]\Ort{\expanded{\index{...}}}
\starttext
\Ort{Albano}
\Ort{Altona}
\Ort{Aurich}
\strut\page
\placeindex

The lookup works so far, but all the entries get sorted unter C (because of
\ctxlua).
I remember I had the same problem with other macros (like \index{\emph{bla}}),
but can’t find a solution in my usual sources.
When you use formatting commands etc. you have to use the optional
argument for sorting.
You can avoid a few problems when you move the \index command to Lua and
use context.index or you use a pure TeX solution.

userdata = userdata or { }

["Aurich"] = "Aurich (Ostfriesland)"
}
function userdata.index(name)
local indexentry = userdata.lookup[name] or name
context.index(indexentry)
end
\stopluacode
\define[1]\Ort{\ctxlua{userdata.index("#1")}}
\starttext

so you can wrap them with custom commands, in case it helps.

I came up with:
\startluacode
user.Lookups = {
["Albano"] = "Albano (Provinz Rom)",
["Altona"] = "Altona (Hamburg)",
["Aurich"] = "Aurich (Ostfriesland)"
}
function user.Lookup(Name)
local Res = user.Lookups[Name]
if Res then
return context(Res)
else
return context(Name)
end
end
\stopluacode
\def\Ort#1{\index{\ctxlua{user.Lookup("#1")}}}
\starttext
\Ort{Albano}
\Ort{Altona}
\Ort{Aurich}
\strut\page
\placeindex
\stoptext
The lookup works so far, but all the entries get sorted unter C (because of
\ctxlua).
I remember I had the same problem with other macros (like \index{\emph{bla}}),
but can’t find a solution in my usual sources.

One essential bit is missing in the wiki example:

need to sort that out some time...

Hi Hans,
That's great! Thanks a lot!
I have two questions in order to adapt what you sent to my case.
I played a bit with your second solution, as in:
%%% begin sidenote-Hans.tex
\showframe
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\setuplayout
[cutspace=7cm,
width=middle,
margin=5cm,
margindistance=7mm]
\setuptexttexts
[margin]
[] [{\directsetup{notabene}}]
\newbox\MyNoteOverflow
\setupnotation[endnote]
[interaction=yes,
after={\blank[big]}]
\startsetups notabene
\setbox\scratchbox\vbox
\bgroup
\setupalign[tolerant]
\ifvoid\MyNoteOverflow
\else
\unvbox\MyNoteOverflow
\fi
\placenotes[endnote][before=,after=]
\egroup
\scratchdimen\dimexpr\textheight-.5\lineheight\relax
\ifdim\ht\scratchbox>\scratchdimen
\global\setbox\MyNoteOverflow\box\scratchbox
\setbox\scratchbox\vsplit \MyNoteOverflow to \scratchdimen
\fi
\vbox
\bgroup
\topskipcorrection
\unvbox\scratchbox
\vfilll
\egroup
\stopsetups
\startsetups notaflush
\doloop {
\page
\ifvoid\MyNoteOverflow
\exitloop
\else
\null \page
\fi
}
\stopsetups
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{
test \endnote{\input ward }\input tufte.tex \par
test \endnote{This is a note about Ward, who says: \par \input
ward.tex} \input ward.tex \par
test \endnote{This is a note about Donald Knuth.} \input knuth.tex \par
}
This is a last note. \endnote{This last note is here to see what happens in the
next page\dots\par \input knuth.tex}
\par \input knuth.tex
%\setups{notaflush}
\stoptext
%%% end sidenote-Hans.tex
The first question is why did you define a setups called notaflush, and why
your example works fine without using it ?
The second question is: the side notes are vertically centered in the margin
(one can see this when the notes do not cover all the margin), which is fine
for me. But, out of curiosity, what can be changed in the setups notabene in
order to have the notes to begin at the top of the margin ?
(When a note runs into the next page, as in the last note, then it would be
nicer to begin on top of the margin).
Thanks again: Otared K.

Hi Hans,
Thanks for your explanations.
Regarding footnotes, would it be possible to have a built-in support for
writing the footnotes in the margin? (For instance, assuming that the layout is
such that for instance the right margin takes 1/3 of the page width, then the
footnotes would occupy the right margin, beginning at the top).
It depends on what you want. This works ok:
\setuplayout
[cutspace=5cm,
width=middle,
margin=4cm]
\setuptexttexts
[margin]
[] [{\directsetup{notabene}}]
\startsetups notabene
\vbox to \textheight \bgroup
\setupalign[tolerant]
\topskipcorrection
\placenotes[endnote][before=,after=]
\vfilll
\egroup
\stopsetups
\starttext
test \endnote{\input ward }\par
test \endnote{x}\par
test \endnote{x}\par
\setups{notaflush}
\stoptext
This one handles overflow (suboptimal, nicer is stepwise flushing) but
this one also flushes notes that have refs on the next page. It just
indicates the usual: most can be done in tex without too much hassle but
one always needs to think about the edge cases as users can drop
anything in there and all can interfere.
\newbox\MyNoteOverflow
\startsetups notabene
\setbox\scratchbox\vbox\bgroup
\setupalign[tolerant]
\ifvoid\MyNoteOverflow \else
\unvbox\MyNoteOverflow
\fi
\placenotes[endnote][before=,after=]
\egroup
\scratchdimen\dimexpr\textheight-.5\lineheight\relax
\ifdim\ht\scratchbox>\scratchdimen
\global\setbox\MyNoteOverflow\box\scratchbox
\setbox\scratchbox\vsplit \MyNoteOverflow to \scratchdimen
\fi
\vbox\bgroup
\topskipcorrection
\unvbox\scratchbox
\vfilll
\egroup
\stopsetups
\startsetups notaflush
\doloop {
\page
\ifvoid\MyNoteOverflow
\exitloop
\else
\null \page
\fi
}
\stopsetups
\starttext
test \endnote{\input ward }\par
test \endnote{x}\par
test \endnote{x}\par
\setups{notaflush}
\stoptext
Variants (i can make one but not with this warm weather) can use
selective flushing (all kinds of things are possible with notes) but
another challenge is to have an independent criterium hooked into the
page builder (when i'm done with playing with extensions regarding pars
i might give that a go ... as usual more a challenge than a need so i
need some motive).

[NTG-context] consistent index entries
Hi,
besides the CG journal I’m working on a scientific biography with huge person
and locality indexes (named Person and Locality for the examples).
In many cases, the author wants additional information in the index, e.g.
\Locality{Altona (Hamburg)}
\Locallity{Breslau (pol. Wrocław)}
or
\Person{Arends, Katharina (née Schoemaker)}
\Person{Wilhelm II. (Kaiser)}
Now, I need that consistent and I don’t want to type these complicated entries
every time.
I’m looking for a good way to handle this – maybe a lookup table in Lua, so that
\LookupPerson{Willy II}
would call a Lua function that returns
\Person{Wilhelm II. (Kaiser)}
?
Or is there already something in place that I overlooked, like
\OverwriteIndexEntry{Hraban}{Ramm, Henning Hraban}
?
