[NTG-context] Regression Test project started
Hello everybody, I am pleased to let you know that a regression test project for ConTeXt has started. The pages of the project are here: https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contexttest/ and the goal is to create a repository of small, easily verifiable test files to test new ConTeXt releases against. The project is of course looking for help from the community. You do not have to have a deep understanding of ConTeXt to be able to help! you only have to know how to write an input file that tests a small part of ConTeXt (say \startitemize options), nothing complicated. We will put all those files in the version control system, and eventuall create an automated system to compile the whole batch overnight after each new beta release. If you want to join in, please register yourself as a user on the above site and let me know so I can add you to the project and its mailing list.

[NTG-context] wiki / modules
Hi, How about renaming the font related zips to f-somename.zip (just like modules are organized in t-somename.zip files). Also, the font zips need to be made tds (texmf tree) compliant: bibtex fonts tex metapost doc + the right context subpaths so, no texmf root included there should be no README files in the root, although i can imagine that we permit t-somename.readme the t-greek zip needs to be repackaged (zip inside zip + texmf root) that way i can fetch the files automatically and create a cont-ext.zip file automatically Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] Problems with Standalone distribution

But then I get new problems and so I decided to start over and ask the list for help. First Problem (may be the mother of all the others): The Batch-Files 'cdemo.bat' and 'cscite.bat' are using for example %~s1 for the first placeholder on the commandline. My Windowssystem (ME) doesn't understand this. Are there other Batch-Files that work on older commandoprozessors to download? A second question: There exists an directory 'usr\local\context\tex\texmf\texmf' which contains fontinformation to one single fontfamily 'cb'. Is this ok: 'texmf' under 'texmf'?

Using the trivial solution (\uppercase) does not work because with a non-il1 regime it does not handle the accented characters (A umlat, O umlaut) correctly. I use UTF, as it contains all the characters I need.
So, what has changed in the \WORD? It works \WORD{fine} within text but not in the headings.

umlaut) correctly. I use UTF, as it contains all the characters I need.
So, what has changed in the \WORD? It works \WORD{fine} within text
but not in the headings.
TIA,
- Ville

the best solution is to use a caps font (or to create a pseudo caps font )

I know this is not a trivial question due to the number
of encodings and languages. However, what makes me a bit
puzzled is that the following works fine:
\title{\WORD{Text with åäö etc.} }
So, the mechanism behind \WORD works well. It is just that
I cannot figure out how to use it. I emphasize that it used
to work fine even in the \setuphead definition, but that
was with an old version (April '05).

Has there been any change after that? If not, I could brew up a
minimal example to illustrate the problem.

[NTG-context] bib module: broken link on ConTeXt Garden
Hi, The following link is broken: http://tex.aanhet.net/bib/t-bib-2006.03.13.zip Question: Is there a beta or this module is the release (after beta) ? ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] new module: streams
Dear all,
as you may have seen in the lates release notes, ConTeXt has a new
feature: we have now streams for even and odd pages that can be
synchronized at certain points. This is useful for, e.g., typesetting
bilingual books: have the original on the even pages, the translation
on the odd pages, and synchronize at certain points. I was very
tenacious about it, and Hans has been characteristically generous
with his skills and his time and has implemented something. I'm sure
if some of you are interested, we will be able to refine it.
I am uploading a pdf-document displaying this new feature to our
institute's website. Due to the system our university uses, it may
take until tomorrow until it's really visible at http://www.uni-
bonn.de/www/Philologie/Personal/Schmitz/Dateien.html It's a bilingual
(Greek-German) edition of a number of Greek texts for my lecture
course next semester. It's not perfect, but it shows how powerful
this new feature is. Have a look at it; if anybody is interested in
seeing the source code, just contact me, and I'll be happy to send it
along. Just a very brief explanation, if you want to try this at home:
In the module, Hans has suggested a few shortcuts to using it, so I
have in the preamble of the document:
\usemodule[streams]
\def\StartCouple{\page\SwitchToNormal}
\def\StopCouple {\SwitchToNormal \SynchronizeLeftAndRight
\FlushLeftAndRight}
\def\Original {\SwitchToNormal\SynchronizeLeftAndRight\SwitchToLeft}
\def\Translation{\SwitchToRight}
So you put the part of your document where synchronization should
take place between \StartCouple and \StopCouple. After that ,
\Original and \Translation switches between even and odd pages.
I know that several people on the list asked for a similar feature,
and I'm very grateful to Hans for providing it.
Best
Thomas

[NTG-context] References formatting (m-bib related problems)
Hi all,
At first, I use m-bib-beta-20060208.zip. Up to now, I used:
\setupbibtex[database=biblio,sort=author]
\setuppublications[alternative=num-fr,sorttype=bbl,numbering=yes]
%% In order to format Names with small capitals:
\def\mynormalauthor#1#2#3#4#5%
{\bibdoif{#1}{#1\bibalternative{firstnamesep}}%
\bibdoif{#2}{#2\bibalternative{vonsep}}%
\bgroup\sc#3\egroup\bibalternative{surnamesep}\unskip
\bibdoif{#5}{#5\unskip}}
\setuppublicationlist
[artauthor=\mynormalauthor,
editor=\mynormalauthor,
author=\mynormalauthor]
Everything works fine, but now I would use apa-fr and I have some
problems. After discussing this topic with Taco on #context, I have
tried the following code:
% \cite[name00] should return [Name, 2000]
\unprotect\def\mybibcommand#1{\expanded{\cite[\@@pbk]}~~} \protect
\setupbibtex[database=biblio,sort=author]
\setuppublications[alternative=apa,sorttype=bbl,numbercommand=\mybibcommand,
numbering=yes,autohang=yes]
\setupcite[authoryears][left={[},right={]}]
So, just forget to format the authors with normalauthor small
capitals It's ok for the cite command but labels of the references
listing is wrong (each label are the same and correspond in fact to the
last entry ! )... Any idea ???
Add to this the fact that I don't like the formatting of the year -
(1999). Since I like the formatting applied with num-fr, how to
reproduce it with apa-fr.
(I have tested apa and apa-fr and it gives same results in either)

[NTG-context] Rows and lines in tables
Hello all,
I'm a new ConTeXt user (started using it a few days ago) and I do have
three problems now with tables which I could not solve reading the manual
and the content of the ConTeXt wiki. I've created a minimal example (see
below) illustrating my problems:
1. How can create lines with different widths using the \DL command as
I do with \HL[factor] oder \VL[factor]? This would, in my
example, allow to align the dummyx text in the first table with the
numbers x in the second table.
2. How can I create a carriage return in the text of a table cell?
Neither \crlf nor \\ do work (tried it with the AAA and BBB text
in the first table to get them into the same cell.
3. How can I synchronize the height of the first two lines of the first
table with those of the second table, no matter if there's a line between
the rows (as in the second table, a thin one as in my example or even a
fat one) or not (like in the first table which visually has a big
cell)? Can I create an invisible line? How do I line up the BBB with
the YYY / ZZZ line? Or, another possibility, how do I control the rows
independently, having the BBB in the first table very close to the
AAA, perhaps even three lines of text there, and at the same time only
two rows of text in the second table? What about having only one line of
text in the first table, vertically centered to the corresponding two
rows of the second table?
=== [example] ===
\starttext
\define\bold{8}
\startcombination[2*1]
{\starttable[|c|]

\VL 9 \VL \VL \SR
\HL[\bold]
\stoptable}{}
\stopcombination

=== [/example] ===
I know, a layout with all these horizontal lines and two tables sitting
next to each other is not the best one, but I'm trying to reconstruct an
existing document which is designed that way. Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Robert
