Hi everyone,
I have three questions regarding the use of abbreviations in mkiv: it seems
that there is a difference between the way in which mkii and mkiv treat the
definitions of synonyms.
If one considers the minimal example:
% ----- begin abbrev-test.tex
\definesynonyms[abbreviation][abbreviations][\infull][\inshort]
\starttext
\abbreviation{LCTVS}{Locally Convex Topological Vector Space}
\abbreviation{EEG} {Electroencephalogram}
\abbreviation{ERP} {Event-Related Potentials}
\abbreviation{TVS}{Topological Vector Space}
Test inshort: \inshort{EEG}, \inshort{ERP}, \inshort{TVS},
Test infull: \infull{EEG}, \infull{ERP}, \infull{TVS}, \infull{LCTVS}
\completelistofabbreviations
\stoptext
% ----- end abbrev-test.tex
my questions are the following:
1) How can I tell mkiv that I want \infull{EEG} result in Electroencephalogram not in
"ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAM"?
2) It seems that the order in which \infull and \inshort are defined in
\definesynonyms[abbreviation][abbreviations][\infull][\inshort]
is different in mkii and in mkiv: is this observation correct?
I need to check it (no time right now) as there is no reason for it not
to be compatible
3) Is it possible to obtain, beside the list of abbreviations, another ordered
list in which the full variant is in the first column while the short variant
is in the second column? That is something like:
\completeReverseListOfAbbreviations
resulting in
Electroencephalogram EEG
Event-Related Potentials ERP
Locally Convex Topological Vector Space LCTVS
Topological Vector Space TVS
Thanks in advance for any help or insight.
remind me to make it configureable (not that hard)
Hans
