[NTG-context] \framed inside \startalignment\stopalignment
Strange behavior with \framed or \inframed
inside \startalignment [middle] \stopalignment.
Alan
Minimal example:
\starttext
\startalignment [middle]
\inframed {This {\bf should} be aligned and centered}
along with the following.
\stopalignment
\blank
\startalignment [middle]
Here,
\inframed {the entire line}
is centered.
\stopalignment
\blank
\startalignment [middle]
This is centered.\crlf
\inframed {This is now centered.}\crlf
This is centered.

Woah, that works (in MkIV). Thanks!
*Everywhere* the authors use \CONTEXT\ and \TeX\ followed by
an escaped space. (Is this space [sometimes] unbreakable?)
In my own texts, I often use {\TeX} as I find this not (too)
ugly. Also, I tend to make less mistakes with this method
(since it is very easy to forget the trailing backslash).
If \autoinsertnextspace is the right solution, perhaps this

Re: [NTG-context] Remove bold face
I learned about selectors from this mailing list.
Before, I had used \nomarking{}, but I believe
that this has been eliminated in mkiv.
The selector mechanism is cleaner, and my use
is typically for figure and table captions.
I have no experience with \startchapter.

I found John Hobby's document a good place to learn it and then used Hans' Metafun to learn further. The reason I am looking at Asymptote and pstricks is because they have libraries or functionality which Metapost lacks. For example, the tree drawing library in pstricks. If Metapost has such a library I don't know since I cannot find any document that explains the new things added to Metapost other than what is mentioned in Metafun(2001). As you said documentation is lacking. pgf/tikz has a nice tree building function. pgfplots is a fairly evolved and active data plotting package. Concerning metapost, graph.mp is pretty powerful, but is missing some functionality. piechartmp is also available (although I never use pie charts!) featpost and mp3d give some nice, basic, 3d capability. metagraph, metaobj, ... It would be interesting to see a good tree drawing macro package under metapost; I have yet to take the time to see what is out there. The ConTeXt community (and via the minimals distribution) can keep this active... So much to do!

There's a module pstricks. Again, a search in the list archives would

Indeed, since learning (and still learning) metapost, I find it far superior: cleaner syntax, much more powerful... Tikz is/was a very welcome addition to laTeX, but metapost, whose syntax is more closely related to plain TeX, is more coherent with ConTeXt. So I now find the syntax of tikz uncomfortable under ConTeXt.

My experience is that mkiv is not totally stable,
but almost so. I try to use it for my production
as much as possible. For the core of the commands,
the two are interchangable and it is simply a question
of using the context script or the texexec script

3. What *reference* material exists? I do not need a user guide. Right
now it has been Google. However, the solutions most recently mentioned
on the mailing lists seem to dead-end. I am fine with an answer of see
the source code if that is really it.
Did you look at the user guide? It is a reference manual
http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/cont-eni.pdf
http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/cont-enp.pdf
The first is a screen version, the second a paper format.
(and called context-reference or contextref.pdf on the svn)
A rich source is:

Re: [NTG-context] Page Numbering Hell
Dear Bryant,
Your post is slightly exaggerated.
The document structure that you want to produce
appears to be relatively standard. Whereas,
indeed, the learning curve for ConTeXt (as for TeX)
can be somewhat slow, the richness and powerfulness
is well worth the effort.
The documentation for ConTeXt (mkii) is quite rich,
although it did take me some time to get used to
the presentation and style. Some of the syntax
has evolved in mkiv, mostly in an effort of
simplification, but also to allow some powerful
new features. The documentation is (slowly)
being updated, as this is a tremendous effort.
But it is a necessary effort. I believe that
all of us users will appreciate the updated
reference manual when it is completed!
A notable change between mkii and mkiv
is the handling of document structure.
I, too, have had a difficult time with this evolution
of such a fundamental functionality and will
therefore let someone more expert reply to
your request with specific examples on how
to tune the style, notably page numbering;
it should be a simple matter.

All-
A few days ago when I first stumbled on ConTeXt I was very, very
excited. I have some 500 pages of technical documentation that could
benefit from this, particularly since I need Japanese font support. But
it has to be real.
I'm sorry if this sounds caustic, but after 12 hours of failed attempts
to even get a minimal document formatted I have some serious questions
for the list:
1. Is Mark IV real? I am only somewhat joking here - after
spending hours searching for reasonable documentation on even the most
trivial options, I am left wondering whether this is something I want to
use...
2. ConTeXt looks great. But what is current? Seriously, I like the
look and the support (particularly Unicode). But going over
documentation I cannot make heads or tails of what to do. Mark II? Mark
IV? TeTeX? LuaTeX? If I really want to use this, what should I use?
3. Having answered #2, where in the world is a reference manual!!!
I mean one that actually *documents the options*.
4. Having answered #3, are there any current examples that
actually work? The snippets from the mailing are great, but they are
just snippets. That doesn't help me.
Now, to resolve my immediate issue, and just because I will not be able
to sleep well until I figure this out (yes, I am fixated on this).
I want this document structure:
Contents
1. Chapter 1-1
1.1 Section 1-2
2. Chapter 2 2-1
2.1 Section 2-2
Table of contents on page i.
Even/odd, each chapter starts on right page.
Page number (as in 2-2) in top margin.
Mark IV, Lua document.
I have tried hundreds of different combinations. If it cannot do this,
the I will (with sadness) move on. I'm sure that it would take someone
who understands this about 5 minutes to write (if that).

[NTG-context] obscure luatex error
In trying to compile a LARGE project (585 pages, 260 figures, 27 tables, indexing, bibliography, ...), I produce an obscure luatex error: luatex: ../../../source/texk/web2c/luatexdir/tex/printing.c:266: print: Assertion `c 256' failed. [329.327MTXrun | fatal error, no return code, message: luatex: execution interrupted probably due to a floatblock or other buffer overflow, I suspect.

The full project compiles under mkii but systematically fails under mkiv. Unfortunately, I cannot produce a minimal example...

Re: [NTG-context] alpha release
Hi experts, Would someone please provide a basic recipe to correctly install the new alpha release locally. I would like to test the new alpha code but am a bit confused as to what exactly to install and how. 1. on the website, is this indeed http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/current/cont-tmf.zip as http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-3.htm currently lists as (not available)? Should this be unzipped under /usr/local/context.alpha/tex/texmf-context for example? 2. no beta as mkiv needs the trunk version of luatex Does this mean http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/download/frsrelease/350/1332/luatex- snapshot-0.42.0.tar.bz2 to be compiled and then somehow installed into the local tree. From luatex-snapshot-0.42.0/INSTALL Post-compilation installation should be a simple matter of copying the executable to a normal place for web2c binaries and generating the desired formats. You may want to install the executable under the names 'texlua' and 'texluac' as well (create a copy or symlink) I currently work with the contextgarden minimals. Under the minimals, these are located at tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/texlua tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/texluac on my machine. Sorry for such basic questions.

Re: [NTG-context] mkiv structure
In my experience, a \part is generally
(except in some rather technical documents)
not treated as a super-chapter, that is
chapter numbers (and titles) are not reset
and retain their status as if the book was not
divided into parts.
A very long work is commonly broken into volumes.
Here, each volume may or may not reset chapter numbers.
Page numbering may or may not reflect the volume number.
This is a sylistic choice.
In my understanding, \part serves to delimit
logical sections of related chapters, not volumes.
Maybe I am wrong in this interpretation;
maybe \part is to be used to delimit volumes.
Nevertheless, it should be relatively simple
for the basic user to be able to select the desired behavior
without having to acquire an understanding of the inner workings
such as prefixsets and sectionsegments.

no surprise, as math has its own spacing model so it all depends on the

I do not have any strong feelings about this, but do believe that ~ has

[NTG-context] Font and Typescript problems
I am perhaps using font typescripts incorrectly. Nevertheless, the recent
minimals from the garden appears to have introduced a bug handling rscale.
Thanks,

Hans,
What does the new arrow function in math-vfu.lua supposed to do?
it will be used instead of the macro based one (as luatex has native
support for such extenders now) but i had to wait till you fixed all
the other arrows that you added someplace
in math-vfu, patch:
--~ main.characters[unicode] = { horiz_variants = t }
main.characters[unicode].horiz_variants = t
and
[0x02190] = 0x20, -- leftarrow
[0x02192] = 0x21, -- rightarrow
--~ [0xFE190] = 0x20, -- leftarrow
--~ [0xFE192] = 0x21, -- rightarrow
and remake the format
luatex has native support for extensible arrows and since lm lacks them
we need to construct them
Hans
Works. Fantastic!

Re: [NTG-context] 1/2 symbol
If you use the Unicode Hex Input keyboard layout: press the Option key and enter four hex digits to specify the hex code of any glyph. Also, under any layout, when used with other keys, the Option key produces special symbols. The Keyboard Viewer, which users can add to the Input menu in the International pane of System Preferences, shows which keys generate each symbol. I do not know if ½ is included under what layout. Under X11, this is as simple as COMPOSE+1+2. I do not know how this can be configured on the Mac. On Wednesday 04 March 2009 10:56:38 Thomas A.

Re: [NTG-context] basic luatex/minimals problem
Please let us know (through an announcement on the mailing with a new, descriptive title) when the minimal distribution stabilizes, that is, when we should dare to update our way too old versions (with a reasonable hope of getting a working new version).

What, you are all leaving us stranded? I kind of expect a few problems. current will probably break now - I doubt that it still works with the latest luatex. beta might be unsynchronised for some time and math is not completely polished yet. Do WE think that it is OK to go away leaving new math not compeletely polished? I would say: if you have some critical project: do not try to update in the next few days.

Chemic seems to work with apparently the same results in mkii and mkiv. I am using this with mkiv without being too demanding for the moment... This package may have a small user base, but it appears to be rather unique. In order to progress, it must not sleep but be put to use. Note, however, that I am not a chemist and so do not write very many chemical structures and formulae. The big problem for scientific writers is that publishers at very best will accept plain LaTeX. A notable exception is the American Physical Society who developed revTeX, a LaTeX package well suited to their publishing style. The American Chemical Society will accept plain LaTeX. Often, other scientific publishers as for Word! Also, we need to contribute more pages like http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Posting_on_arxiv.org Indeed, I had terrible problems submitting texts to arxiv as their system identifies the source as TeX but fails to process it.

As long as 2*2~=3, this will not be possible. I would do (pseudo-code,
untested)
\startcombination[1*2]
\startcombination[2*1]
figure 1
figure 2
\stopcombination
figure 3
\stopcombination
Tested:
\starttext
\startcombination[1*2]
\startcombination[2*1]
{1}{(1)}
{2}{(2)}
\stopcombination
{3}{(3)}
\stopcombination
\startcombination[2*1]
\startcombination[2*1]
{1}{(1)}
{2}{(2)}
\stopcombination
{3}{(3)}
\stopcombination
\stoptext
The first appears to give a reasonable result,
but the second gives exactly the same as the first.
I do not believe that combinations can be recursive...
