Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt + asymptote

I'm just going through my asymptote diffs (against v0.99) for it to work with plain TeX, and I'm not sure any of my changes will make it easier to integrate with ConTeXt the way MP is integrated. It's depressing how wedded asymptote is to LaTeX, and maybe it's impossible to get it all out (e.g. it uses \minipage and \fontsize). -Sanjoy `Never underestimate the evil of which men of power are capable.' --Bertrand Russell, _War Crimes in Vietnam_, chapter 1. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt + asymptote

Re: [NTG-context] Feature request: Creating tables from (tab-separated) values
Hi,
Here is a quick hack that converts csv to commalist values.
Perhaps it helpful for someone. Documentation blurb:
This module parses CSV data (somewhat) safely. After
\def\dataline{a,,\j,a",a\j a",t{f},",",,"a""b"}
\convertcsvdata\dataline\to \myascii
\message{\meaning\myascii}
output is:
macro:->{a},{},{\j },{a"},{a\j a"},{t{f}},{,},{"},{a"b}
The result is detokenized, like would be with \type{\convertargument}.
Therefore, you will need to run \type{\scantokens} over the list
items if the CVS data was actually \TeX{} code.
Cheers,
Taco

Re: [NTG-context] TABLE: 'distance' override?
After sleeping on this I realize that a more mechanistical answer to this
may be more interesting.
When coding a table in LaTeX with 'booktabs' as the one shown in
http://www.idyll.org:8081/JohSite/context/table1.jpg/view, booktabs mainly
provides the commands '\bottomrule' and '\toprule', creating the heavier
start and end lines. The interrupted lines separating the table header from
the table body are coded explicitly (with a command I'm not sure is even
provided by 'booktabs'): '\cmidrule(r){1-1}\cmidrule(lr){2-2}\cmidrule(l
{3-3}' for a three-columned table. Bottomline is that while with the
distance solution in ConTeXt natural TABLEs the whole table is modified, a
solution like this only modifies the horizontal line targeted - and that
very flexible: the firs '\cmidrule' call anly shortens the rule on the
right ('(r)'), the second one on both sides ('(lr)') and the last one on
the left ('(l)').
In order to emulate my table style with TABLE there would be 4 things
necessary:
1) possibility to have top- and bottomframe formated independently
(different width - top heavy, bottom light; one continuous, one interrupted
(see 2.))
2) a new frame mode ('int'?) which interrupts a 'bottomframe=int' between
table columns with an automatism recognizing whether this is the first or
last column and only shortening the line on the right or left respectively.
3) Booktabs also provides an '\addlinespace' command for groupseparation ...
see separation between first and second body line in
http://www.idyll.org:8081/JohSite/context/table1.jpg/view
4) When defining tables in LaTeX, a definition like [EMAIL PROTECTED]@{}}
yields horizontal lines terminating on the left and right flush with the
table content and not reaching to a column separation border beyond that.
If you wonder where I got all theses crazy ideas ;0):
http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/info/german/tabsatz/tabsatz.pdf by Axel
Reichert is the inspiring document (sorry - German only).
I'm not asking for this to be implemented, but I believe ConTeXt would
benefit from this.
