Re: [NTG-context] openBSD (was: which command would give the same effect as \pause in beamer ?)
Presently, I do not believe that openBSD is officially built for TeXlive. That is correct. The person who used to do so (Edd Barrett) decided the distro's package setup was good enough for him, and no one else has come forward. (No one has complained about it being missing, either.) I have no objection to re-adding it if you or anyone wants to do it. -k ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
Re: [NTG-context] location of mtx-scripts
Iôòùd like to ask if there is any update on this: The same issue has now arisen with context-simpleslides (hi Aditya and Thomas), which now has: scripts/context/lua/third/simpleslides/mtx-simpleslides.lua The t- prefix doesn't make a difference to TL, so I went ahead and added scripts/context/lua/third/PKGNAME to our patterns and updated simpleslides. Philipp, if you move mtx-rst.lua to scripts/context/lua/third/rst, (instead of directly under lua/), I'll update rst too.

Re: [NTG-context] Making necessary OpenType features on by default
Why not just include the SIL arabic fonts? The OFL is fine for a license. TL already has several other OFL'd fonts. If someone puts the fonts on CTAN, I don't mind incorporating them in TL. (As a practical matter, it is a lot of extra work for me to work with any package that is not on CTAN. And besides, we want CTAN to be "comprehensive".) It would also be nice to have supporting TeXish files, but if the bare otf's/ttf's/whatever SIL gives are useful with LuaTeX/ConTeXt, I don't insist. ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
Re: [NTG-context] mplib
Soon there will also be the option to support specific projects (tug project page). It is possible to contribute specifically to TUG's development fund, which is TUG's pigeonhole for dev projects, at https://www.tug.org/donate.html. Any donations to that now will end up going to luatex/mplib. Donations are, of course, greatly appreciated :). As Hans said, new members for TUG (http://tug.org/join.html) or any other user group (http://tug.org/usergroups.html) are also greatly appreciated.

Re: [NTG-context] Context 2005.11.11 Released
Hi Adam, Is this a "Halo" release for TeXLive? I don't know what that means, but no, this context release won't be on TL'05. That's frozen, and Manfred is making the golden masters for final testing and production now. From what Hans and Taco have told me, the post-TL context releases aren't critical, i.e., TL should be ok. If that's not the case, I don't want to know :). (Ok, not really, please inform ASAP if that's so :) Cheers, k ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
Re: [NTG-context] Fleurons
this differes per year; i keep changing these names and always lag behind one tex live version TL has always distributed both pzdr.tfm and uzdr.tfm. I don't have an easy way to check the situation in teTeX. because i find out afterwards Well, that's what testing is for, it's not like anyone was keeping it a secret. There was 4+ months of time for it last year. Anyway ... one of the previous tex lives someone moved the urw's to some 35vf folder, after that things went bad (got lost and such); i discussed this with Staszek and he reverted it; Starting in TL 2003, uzdr.tfm was indeed put under urw35vf instead of just urw. I do not know/remember why, or who did it (though we could check the logs), or what "got lost" as a result. It is also still the case in the current sources, so I also don't know what you mean by Staszek "reverted it". Staszek, what did you do? Meanwhile, the afm and pfb are under just urw/. It seems odd, though I can imagine how it could happen. this kind of things has to do with the everlasting some urw fonts can be exchanged with some built in ps fonts as claimed by walter cum suis (which is not true, ask nelson -) Clearly the URW fonts are not 100% identical to the Adobe fonts, but in practice we have to accept the URW Type 1's under the p* names, because the p* names are what most documents have historically used. We can't suddenly make those documents unusable, that would be disastrous. For that matter, the Adobe fonts themselves have changed over the years. Nothing is perfect. i have no problem if this introduces a mess for latex users Well, I do! but context (users) expect the whole set of urw (afm & pfb) to be present because they generate other encodings and such; uzdr.afm and uzdr.pfb are both in the current TL sources, and always have been. I know of no reason or suggestion to delete them. i think that we need to get rid of the urw mappings in the aliases file I agree. I have now deleted the aliases file altogether from the TL sources. We'll see how that flies. I don't know if that will change anything wrt gwTeX, though. k ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] Tex-Live bittorrent sites?
Is there a bittorrent site for downloading the current version of texlive? Not that I am aware of. If you find one or can set one up, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the info. For those who may not know -- Hans just asked me :) -- BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer system that lets big files be downloaded in small pieces from many different machines. The client reassembles the pieces. I haven't used it myself, although I've heard some good things about it. http://bittorrent.com/ karl ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] ConTeXt at San Francisco conference?
Dear ConTeXt folks, The TeX Users Group is sponsoring a user-oriented regional conference on the practical uses of TeX, July 19-22, 2004 in San Francisco. For the sake of publicity and announcements, we were wondering if there is sufficient interest in ConTeXt to list it as a conference topic. The primary topics of the conference will be LaTeX and AMS-LaTeX. However, we do want to include other TeX documentation systems, so that TeX users will be aware of and know how to use other tools. In previous TUG conferences Hans Hagen has held workshops on ConTeXt, which have been well-received. Some preliminary information is available at http://tug.org/practicaltex2004. We would like to hear from anyone who would like to attend, as either a speaker or delegate. Please reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you are interested. Thanks!
