Re: [NTG-context] font problems
Hans,
thanks you for the solution to my font problem. I appreciate it.
I'm trying to understand the definefont command you used and it seems that the
arguments 'sa 1' in the macro is a size indication somewhat similar to 'at
10pt' but uses a relative size parameter as opposed to the absolute pt value.
That the numeric argument after 'sa' is a multiple of the current font size.
Thank you

Re: [NTG-context] Math prime issues for some fonts
Hi Jack,
I've been working with Hans on math in general and primes in
particular in the last week. I do not understand all the details, but
I think primes are handled differently now, and that one essentially
need to have some tuning in goodie files (the reason is that they are
done differently in different fonts, and that there was not simple
one-fits-all solution). We have not touched eulernova yet.
In any case, if you replace euler-math.lfg and type-imp-euler.mkiv in
ConTeXt-lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/fonts/mkiv/ with the
attached files, I think at least the primes should look OK (you could
experiment with the values in euler-math.lfg). The sample file
\setupbodyfont[eulernova]
\starttext
\m{x'(t)f'(x)f''(x)e^{f'(x)}}
\stoptext
looks OK here.

Thanks, \definetypeface fixes it. Should I not be using \definefontfamily?
I've just checked eulernova and the prime is still too high for this font.

Re: [NTG-context] Checking for a Unicode prefix of a Unicode string
Thanks! Invoking string.find(str,"^"..pre) is certainly much easier. This
sort of thing would be a nice general-purpose helper function. Denis Maier
and I should have a "wish list" of desired helpers and features (mostly
related to bibliographies/publication support) ready for you (and Alan)
sometime soon.
But for now, it looks like I still need to work out errors that arise when
I pass a macro as the "str" input to be searched. I've defined a \loc macro
that accepts an assignment and outputs a formatted string, and later, I
want to check if this macro (after it has been fully expanded) starts with
a certain prefix. A minimal (non-)working example follows:
```
\starttexdefinition loc [#1]
\doifassignmentelse{#1} {
% if an assignment, then parse and format accordingly
\getparameters[loc][#1]
% Was a section number specified?
\doifdefined{locsec} {
§ \locsec\btxcomma
}
} {
% otherwise, just print the input as-is
#1
}
\stoptexdefinition
\def\DoIfPrefixElse#1#2{\ctxlua{commands.doifelse(string.find("#2","^".."#1"))}}
\def\currentbtxloctext{\loc[sec=31]}
\starttext
\DoIfPrefixElse{§}{\currentbtxloctext}{YES}{NOP}
\stoptext
```
Lua is throwing an "invalid escape sequence near '"\l'" error, which is
presumably because the macro \loc[sec=31] is not being expanded. How do I
fix this?
Thanks!

Reading the manuals, I find that the publication mechanism for
bibliography kinda fits my needs (using ConTeXt to sort and type data
generated via external software) but, unlike registers, it doesn't seem
to include options for alphabetical headers. Is it fine to keep using
registers in this case? Is there a better mechanism for this task in
ConTeXt? Thank you in advance.
you can also use:
\setregisterentry
[Russian]
[keys={\dummyparameter{word}},
entries={\bold{\dummyparameter{word}}
\italic{\dummyparameter{category}}

no need for c! v! s! unless you make a multi-userinterface style
anyway, makes me wonder if we should have a horizontal register variant
\setupregister
[Russian][2]
[textstyle=bold]
\setupregister

[textstyle=italic]
so that we keep stuff on one line

[NTG-context] font problems
Here's my MWE:
Objective is to typeset a Chancery font text in the upper lefthand side
of a page, and
then do the main body in some normal font. Then at the very last print
a sign off in
Chancery. For some reason I can't get both to print out as Chancery.
Only one or the
other, but not both.
\definefontfamily [mwetest] [sans] [Liberation Sans]
\setupbodyfont [mwe,ss,12pt]
\definelayer[mwe][repeat=yes, preset=lefttop, hoffset=.125in, voffset=.125in]
\setlayer[mwe] { \switchtobodyfont[chancery,8pt] \hskip 5mm Chancery Font
Here }
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=mwe]
\starttext
Normal font text goes here. \blank[4*big]
{ \switchtobodyfont[chancery] This should be Chancery here to. But isn't. }
\blank[2*big]Note that if I comment out the \type{setlayer[mwe]} in the source

Re: [NTG-context] Checking for a Unicode prefix of a Unicode string
On 11/26/2021 7:42 AM, Joey McCollum via ntg-context wrote:
I wasn't aware of a general-purpose "doifstartswith" macro in ConTeXt
(the \doifnextcharelse macro only works one character at a time, and the
\doifinstring macros may capture substrings that are not prefixes), and
I'd like to develop one for something I'm working on. I've been trying
to do this in Lua, as that seemed like the most natural approach.
Normally, something like this would work fine as a foundation:
```
function isprefix(prefix, str)
if string.sub(str, 1, string.len(prefix)) == prefix then
return true
end
return false
end
```
how about
if string.find(str,"^"..prefix) then
in:
\starttext
\def\DoIfPrefixElse#1#2{\ctxlua{commands.doifelse(string.find("#2","^".."#1"))}}
\DoIfPrefixElse{pre}{prefix}{YES}{NOP}
\DoIfPrefixElse{pre}{suffix}{YES}{NOP}
\stoptext
utf strings are just sequences of bytes so matching works
when you want to do more in lua you can decide for
\startluacode
interfaces.implement {
name = "DoIfPrefixElse",
arguments = { "argument", "argument" },
actions = function(pre,str)
commands.doifelse(string.find(str,"^"..pre))
end
}
\stopluacode
\DoIfPrefixElse{pre}{prefix}{YES}{NOP}
\DoIfPrefixElse{pre}{suffix}{YES}{NOP}
but in any case: make sure that you don't clash with built in ...
if needed i can make a set of fast(er) ones but someone has to collect a
list of 'handy helpers' first
