Have a look at \ConTeXt in cont-log.tex. The needed spacing will vary
per font family, of course.
Usually (as for the NTG's journal), we do not even try to get it right.
Our defs are along these lines:
\def\ConTeXt{Con{\TeX}t}
\def\LaTeX{La\TeX}
\def\MF{Metafont}
\def\MP{Metapost}
etc. (basically, only use the \TeX macro and ignore all else)

Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt logo
Wonderful, thanks Taco! I see that somebody had played around with
kerning the \TeX-part, there was a commented line. I tried a somewhat
higher value than the default 0.667em, and it seems to be looking
better now!

Re: [NTG-context] tetex3 ubuntu install (was : installing tetex on ubuntu : basics log)
OK, since you're having so much trouble, I'll try to explain a few things: 1. Your trouble with Ubuntu: you copied the command as is from the document INSTALL in tetex: gzip -dc tetex-texmf.tar.gz \| (umask 0; cd /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-dist; tar xvf -) In the tetex document, the \ was just there because the line was continued, it wasn't meant to be retyped by you in the middle of the line. Rewrite the command without it, and you'll be fine. Please don't put anything along the lines you tried into the wiki, Ubuntu is working fine here, that was just a user error. 2. .bash_profile is read by login shells only, so if you set your $PATH there, you have to either log out and then back in or run the command source .bash_profile 3. I have a dim memory that the way auctex is set up on Ubuntu, it calls sh and doesn't take your current path into account. This is easy to fix: in emacs, type M-x customize-variable RET TeX-command-list In the buffer that opens, scroll down till you see the variable for ConTeXt, which is set to texexec --pdf --nonstop --texutil %t instead of texexec, give the full path: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc- linux-gnu/tetex and you should be fine. Most of what you're experiencing are not real ConTeXt problems, but general shell/path/auctex problems. If they are to appear in the Wiki (I'm not sure they should), this should be in a section of its own. They're definitely not special or restricted to Ubuntu.

[NTG-context] Dropped caps and indenting
Dear gang,
I am having difficuly getting dropped caps and the new indenting mechanism
coordinated; the dropped cap goes into the margin. Try this:
===
\setupoutput[pdftex]
\setupindenting[medium,next,yes]
\def\TextDroppedCaps{%
\DroppedCaps%
{} % commands (like color)
{cmr12}
{2.2\baselineskip} % height scale of dropped cap
{4pt} % amount of indent wrt dropped letter
{\baselineskip}% distance of base of letter from base of first line
{2}% number of indented lines
}
\starttext
\TextDroppedCaps In general, Baroque letterforms appear more
modern and less {\em written} than Renaissance forms. They give
less evidence of the direct trace of the pen. Yet they take many
different forms, and they thrived in Europe throughout the
seventeenth century, endured through much of the eighteenth, and
enjoyed an enthusiastic revival during the nineteenth.
\stoptext
===
If indenting is commented it works correctly. I ran into this before and
worked around it back when indenting had to be declared twice; don't know what
to do now...

[NTG-context] strange behavior of startbackground
Hello,
I came across a problem when I was trying to compile my tex file.
The attached file is an example.
I have to process Chinese, so \loadmapfile[gbk] and
\usemodule[chinese] are essential.
I'm using the lastest release of ConTeXt.
ConText ver:2005.12.01, texExec 5.4.3, to be exact.
And I use texmfstart texexec.pl --autopdf --pdf test2.tex to compile
my source file.
The problem is there is enough space in page 2 for the words between
\startbackground and \stopbackground, but the background block was put
on page 3 with most of the page 2 was left blank.
And there is another small problem, the command \setupindenting[medium]
didn't work.
Thanks a lot.
