Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt installtion and Debian

2006-10-25 Thread Norbert Preining
Hi Taco, hi all!

I am trying to fix all the problems for Debian ...

Another thing Taco wrote was:
 * TEXFORMATS as shipped with teTeX/TL is uncomplete: there is that
missing format-specific subdirectory. If you are not root, then
you have to create a local texmf.cnf to overrule the default
texmf.cnf. I have:
 
TEXFORMATS= .;$TEXMF/web2c/{$engine,}
 
because context's texexec pushes the $engine setting to the
environment, this works fine (Originally this was supposed to
be handled by kpathsea, but like I said, that never got off
the ground)

This change I have executed in the tex-common depot, it will not hurt
anybody.

 * TEXFONTMAPS is also wrong: it makes pdftex (and dvipdfmx as well,
I guess) find the mapfiles for dvips before their own mapfiles
(those are shipped with ConTeXt).
 
I have:
 
TEXFONTMAPS.dvipdfm  = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{dvipdfm,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.dvipdfmx = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{dvipdfm,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.pdftex   = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{pdftex,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.pdfetex  = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{pdftex,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.xetex= .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{xetex,pdftex,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.dvips= .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{dvips,pdftex,}//
TEXFONTMAPS =.;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//;\
$TEXMF/{$progname,pdftex,dvips}/{config,}//
 
this works fine (but it is perhaps a bit too verbose).

Debian currently has:
TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/{fonts/,}map//;$TEXMF/dvips//

What about this? I am not completely convinced about it since with
updmap we generate input file for all the different programs.

For Taco: I have NOT installed the dvipdfm map files, only those from
fonts/map/pdftex/context and fonts/map/dvips/context

Furthermore I have added all the maps in fonts/map/dvips/context to the
updmap config file and called updmap-sys.

So now I can call texexec on several documents without any problems and
all the fonts are found.

What is the problem with
- removing the dvipdfm maps
- generating lines for dvipdfm(x), pdfetex, dvips from the dvips config
  files as done by updmap-sys

It would be great if we could straighten this out and get nice packages
for Debian rather soon.

Best wishes

Norbert

Hi all!

On Die, 24 Okt 2006, Norbert Preining wrote:
# texexec --make --all [--xetex | --aleph | --pdftex] formats
  
  Where formats are the desired formats to run. The accepted list
  at the moment is: the eight ConTeXt formats, in both long
  (cont-en etc.) and  short from (en,nl,de,it,fr,cz,
  ro,uk), and mptopdf, and the metapost mems mpost and metafun.

Ok, I have rewritten the Debian context package so that it does the
following:

On installation/update time a script context-build-formats is called
which reads the file
/etc/texmf/context/formats.cnf
where all the formats to be build are defined. Currently my file looks
like this:
#
# This file defines which ConTeXt formats are build
#
{pdftex,aleph} {de,en,it,mptopdf}

Yes, it expands the curly braces.

On removal currently I don't do anything, because I don't know how to
know which files should be removed. But this shouldn't be to hard,
remove /usr/share/texmf/web2c/$engine/$format.*

Anyway, it is not very intellignet the script, no error checking,
nothing, but it runs.

What do you say:
- you ConTeXt people: concerning the format file, the way of updating?
- you Debian people: concerning the new way to define it?


The context-build-formats should be something like fmtutil(-sys) for
context. I didn't come around to implement the difference between the
-sys and the normal variant, but it should be easy, as in fmtutil-sys.

Any suggestions?

BTW, here is the code for the script, it is short:
#!/bin/bash
# context-build-formats
export TEXMFSYSCONFIG=/usr/share/texmf

parse_line()
{
  engine=$1
  format=$2
  eval set $engine
  allengines=$@
  eval set $format
  allformats=$@
  for e in $allengines ; do
for f in $allformats ; do
  texexec --make --$e $f
done
  done
}

OIFS=$IFS
IFS='
'
set $(echo x; sed '/^#/d; /^[  ]*$/d' /etc/texmf/context/formats.cnf)
; shift
IFS=$OIFS
for line 
do
  parse_line $line;
done
# eof

You see where I robbed the code ... fmtutil.

Re: [NTG-context] global layout change from header=none in \setuphead

Did you try [header=high]?

 \setuphead[title][header=high]

As far as I can see this is the option which does what you want.

Willi

Sanjoy Mahajan wrote:
 Another of those 'not sure if I'm confused' examples:

 \setuphead[title][header=none]

 With header=empty, it worked as I expected: The first page had no page
 number in the header and the other pages had a page number.  Then I
 tried the example above, with its header=none, so that the first page
 would allocate no space for the header (as well as have no page number).
 But then no pages, not only the first, allocated the header space.

 Is there a subtle difference between header=none and header=empty making
 the first one a global setting but the second one local to the page with
 the title (the local behavior is what I had wanted)?

 It's probably a related confusion or bug, but an alternative solution
 (from http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2005/009180.html) using
 \definelayout[1] also produced a global layout change:

 \definelayout[1][height=7in]
 \starttext
 \title{Hello}
 \dorecurse{15}{\input tufte}
 \stoptext

 This is all with ConTeXt ver: 2006.10.24 13:47 (same results on the live
 context).  Any hints appreciated!

Re: [NTG-context] Hardcoded options in the Ruby scripts

2006-10-25 Thread Richard Gabriel




Hello Hans,thanks for the answer.  (adding a user inferface is more that adding something to  texexec)I understand, but I use the English interface for all languages anyway.Maybe I'm doing something wrong or in a non-standard way...For processing files with ConTeXt, I have a script which does (simplified to the minimum):texmfstart texexec --interface=cont-$1 $2So when I started to experiment with Chinese and Japanese, for example, I naturally wanted the processing to be consistent with other languages. I've simply "cloned" the cont-en.tex format file into cont-cn.tex and cont-ja.tex and defined the default language, default encoding etc. in them. And created new formats. But I had to add these new formats into scripts/ruby/base/tex.rb in order to generate and use them. In case of ConTeXt update, I have to do this change again and again. That's the reason why I've suggested to put these definitons into a separate (user) file. 2. "Make all" should make ALL the defined ConTeXt formats, not the  default ones.
--all means: all patterns Mmm, sorry... I forgot that there are many formats other than cont-*... :-/What does "all patterns" mean?Before altering the tex.rb script, I've tried "texexec --make --all" several times, and it had always rebuilt the 'cont-en', 'cont-nl' and 'mptopdf' formats (maybe also 'metafun'(?); I'm not completely sure...).-Richard

which would be quite a lot -) what do you mean with all?

 Anyway, the main problem I see is altering of a script which comes 
 with the ConTeXt distribution - the changes made into this scripts 
 must be done again and again after each update.

 My suggestion is:
 1. To put the format definition into a separate file (like user.rb or 
 so) which won't be owerwritten in any case.
 [Note: cont-usr.tex is a good analogy to this]
hm, must think about it ; i don't like too many dependencies

 2. "Make all" should make ALL the defined ConTeXt formats, not the 
 default ones.

So based on some of the symb-xxx.tex files, I tried

\loadmapfile[prodint.map]

\startsymbolset
\definesymbol[prodi] [\ProdintSymbol{80}]

\definesymbol[PRODI] [\ProdintSymbol{84}]
\stopsymbolset

but texexec stops when mktexfm cannot find the file 'prodint' or it says the 
TFM file is missing. Another problem with this approach is the fact that this 
does not define a MATH symbol, which is really what I would want. Based on the 
LaTeX style file prodint.sty, I'm guessing I'll at least need a command like:

\definemathsymbol [prodi] [op] [prodint] [xx]

but I can't figure out the usage of this command. I also suspect that I can not 
used the prodint.tfm file, supplied with the LaTeX package, but need to run 
Texfont to create one for ConTeXt. Can you confirm this?

I greatly appreciate any help!

 For example, /usr/share/texmf/scripts/context/ruby/texmfstart.rb

 It looks like PRAGMA is trying to reinvent kpsewhich, integrate internet
 explorer, launch editors, and do a whole bunch of other stuff I haven't
 figured out.  texexec should be a simple wrapper around tex or pdftex
 but it works via texmfstart.rb which is 2541 lines of Ruby - and that's
 a lot of Ruby.  It may all be wonderful (I am not a Ruby programmer) but
 it makes me nervous.

That last bit of information is crucial, because there is a difference

You can use the font files from the LaTeX zip, you just have to

file databases (for multiple trees) in memory etc etc ; as said, the 
average user never enters this code, and it's not even loaded when your 
system is not explicitly configured to do so

 For example, /usr/share/texmf/scripts/context/ruby/texmfstart.rb
 contains the following.  I'm not a Ruby programmer but the comment
 leads me to think there is a potential problem here:

 # danger lurking
 buffer = ' ' * 260
 length = filemethod.call(filename,buffer,buffer.size)
 if length0 then
 return buffer.slice(0..length-1)
 
this has to do with windows long/short names and this branch is never 
entered under unix ; also, buffer is just a string and has nothing to do 
with buffers that produce those buffer overflows
 It looks like PRAGMA is trying to reinvent kpsewhich, integrate internet
 
well, it's mostly a wrapper around kpsewhich; it would be natural to 
have kpse as a library but (1) it's not stable [api cq. names changes] 
and i don't see a stable kpse lib usable in script languages show up; 
(and yes: i rewrote kpse in ruby, and surprise, in some case it even 
runs faster than the c version); consider that in context there can be  
runs with (say) 400 calls to metapost and then it really pays off to 
bypass this ls-r loading
 explorer, launch editors, and do a whole bunch of other stuff I haven't
 
this launching is only used when one starts documentation -- we use this 
in editors: context sensitive help started by a few keystrokes

another option is to use file associations but that has some disadvantaged

anyhow, i see no security risks here since all happens inside the tex 
domain; i don't need tex to crash an internet browser (on any system) -)
 figured out.  texexec should be a simple wrapper around tex or pdftex
 but it works via texmfstart.rb which is 2541 lines of Ruby - and that's
 a lot of Ruby.  It may all be wonderful (I am not a Ruby programmer) but
 
well, if kpse* would have evolved ... sure, but it didn't; also, since i 
run tex on windows, linux and macosx, i want one launcher for all of 
them, not all kind of os dependent scripts
 it makes me nervous.
 
well, i would be more worried about tons of cryptic perl code, even if 
i've written it myself, after a few years i can no longer figure out 
what it does;
 Is an older/simpler texexec still available?
 
there is still texexec.pl (will always be around) but i will no longer 
develop the perl scripts

 \hphantom  ! What a promising word for exactly what I needed!
Again and again I am surprised how many (strange) commands there  
exist. Where does \hphantom come frome? Where is it documented?

Thank you for your replies! But it could be even better:

As I need, finally, a construct like ...
\writetolist[Test]{}{{\hphantom{999}}{\hfill}\bf{Nicely centers TOC  
entry}{\hfill}\it 999}
... I would like to make sure that both manually entered numbers are  
the same (I don't want to risk a typo!).

So I'd like to use something like \def\FakePageNumber{999}, using  
\FakePageNumber at the beginning and the end of the above line.

The following worked ...
\expanded{\writetolist[Test]{}{\hfill {\bf Nicely centers TOC entry}  
\hfill \FakePageNumber}}
... but not in combination with \MySpace or \hphantom anymore:
\expanded{\writetolist[Test]{}{???\hfill {\bf Nicely centers TOC  
entry} \hfill \FakePageNumber}}

Could someone please help me over this expanded/argument/ 
whateveristheproblem gap?


Thank you very much,
Steffen

That last bit of information is crucial, because there is a difference

You can use the font files from the LaTeX zip, you just have to

(ConTeXt  ver: 2006.10.13 20:06)


\starttext


\chapter{Auswahl und Vorgehensweise}% - un/comment !

Der Gesetzesvorbehalt\index{Gesetzesvorbehalt} verlangt für eine  
grundrechtsbeeinträchtigende staatliche Maßnahme eine  
Rechtsgrundlage. Die Problematik der Altschulden“regelung“ besteht  
darin, daß sich ihr Regelungsgehalt (Fortbestand der  
Altverbindlichkeiten) nicht einer einzigen Norm entnehmen läßt,  
sondern hierfür eine Reihe von Einzelvorschriften der beiden  
Staatsverträge und des D|-|Markbilanzgesetzes herangezogen werden  
müssen. Zudem mußten die Regelungen über die  
Entschuldungsmöglichkeiten den Anforderungen des Gesetzesvorbehalts  
genügen.

%%% - from here
Hinsichtlich \index{Gesetzesvorbehalt} des Fortbestand der  
Altschulden fehlt zwar eine ausdrückliche Regelung; aus den genannten  
Einzelvorschriften kann aber auf deren Fortbestehen geschlossen werden 
\footnote{BVerfGE 95, 267 (306).}. Das Bundesverfassungsgericht läßt  
somit einen mittelbar zum Ausdruck gebrachten Willen als  
Eingriffsgrundlage ausreichen\footnote{BVerfGE 95, 267 (306).}. Schon  
in früheren Judikaten ist es davon ausgegangen, daß sich die  
Regelungsabsicht des Gesetzgebers nicht ohne weiteres aus dem  
Wortlaut ergeben muß, sondern daß es genügt, wenn der  
gesetzgeberische Wille mit Hilfe der allgemeinen Auslegungsmethoden  
erschlossen werden kann\footnote{Vgl. BVerfGE 82, 209 (224) m.\,w. 
\,N.}. Bei Anwendung dieser Grundsätze zeigt sich zunächst, daß der  
Gesetzgeber die Altschuldenfrage weder positiv noch negativ, sondern  
im Grunde gar nicht beantwortet hat. Die staatsvertraglichen und  
einfachgesetzlichen Einzelvorschriften, die der BGH für seine  
Gesamtschau heranzieht, nehmen lediglich Bezug auf bestehende  
„Verbindlichkeiten“. Deren Existenz gilt es aber gerade zu belegen 
\footnote{Ausführlich zu den von einem Teil der zivilrechtlichen  
Literatur geäußerten Zweifeln \it{W.~Harms}, DZWir 1993, 123 (124).}.  
Gleichwohl ist mit dem Bundesverfassungsgericht vom Fortbestand der  
Altschulden auszugehen, wofür vor allem die Existenz der  
verschiedenen Entschuldungsmöglichkeiten streitet. Gestützt wird das  
Ergebnis durch den vom Senat ins Spiel gebrachten allgemeinen  
kollisionsrechtlichen Grundsatz, daß die nicht unmittelbar  
verfassungsrechtlich begründeten Rechtsbeziehungen – gleich ob  
systemgeprägt oder systemneutral – bei einem Verfassungswechsel  
regelmäßig bestehen bleiben, sofern nicht ihre Aufhebung ausdrücklich  
angeordnet wurde\footnote{BVerfGE 95, 267 (306\,f.) mit weiteren  
Nachweisen aus der Rechtsprechung des BGH zum intertemporalen  
Privatrecht; zum Verfassungskollisionsrecht \it{D.~Blumenwitz}, HStR  
IX, §\,211 Rn.\,75. }. Eine solche Anordnung liegt im vorliegenden  
Fall aber unstreitig nicht vor.
%%% - to there

In anderer Hinsicht problematisch waren die Entschuldungsregelungen.  
Art.\,25 III EinigungsV und §\,16 III DMBilG schrieben nur die  
Entschuldungsmöglichkeit fest. Das Verfahren jedoch, vor allem die  
Voraussetzungen und der Umfang der Entschuldung, wurde nur in zwei  
nicht veröffentlichten Arbeitsanweisungen\index{Gesetzesvorbehalt–  
Arbeitsanweisungen durch Bundesminister} des Bundesministers der  
Finanzen\index{Arbeitsanweisungen des Bundesministers der Finanzen}
geregelt. Fraglich war somit, ob dies den vom  
Bundesverfassungsgericht aufgestellten Anforderungen des  
Gesetzesvorbehalts genügte, wonach alle wesentlichen Fragen vom  
Parlament selbst entschieden werden müssen\footnote[332]{BVerfGE 33,  
125 (158); 34, 165

means that no matter how much crail you remove from the garden, more
of it will rise to the surface. Crail is much employed by the Royal

  2) The paragraph after the figure is indented, even if it comes right 
  after a \section.

wild speculation

Thinking about how I prevented such parindents in my plain TeX days,
by using \ignorespaces\noindent in the definition of \section.  If
that's what ConTeXt does, perhaps the \placefigure code inserts a
spurious space, which normally doesn't show up because it's inserted
in vertical mode, but it is enough to confuse the \ignorespaces?

 Yes, it is. ConTeXt does not support only pdfetex, but all major

$TEXMF/web2c/aleph/
$TEXMF/web2c/luatex/
$TEXMF/web2c/pdfetex/
$TEXMF/web2c/xetex/
 

 Ah, okay, that's clear.  Has this already been this way one year ago
 when texlive2005 was released?  Do you know whether the TeXlive
 developers are aware of that?
   
sure, but as taco explained in a previous mail, it was considered to be 
to complicated to adapt fmtutil to this which is why texexec tries to 
take care of it

 It is almost certainly better to ignore/block fmtutil and use texexec
 instead. Properly setting up a ConTeXt update is not necesarily limited
 to format generation only.
 

 Hm.  What are the other things that need to be done?
   
texexec can instruct context in ini mode what patterns to preload, which 
font/encoding to default to, which combination of interface and message 
interface to use, etc

in the case of luatex (we're experimenting with that now) it may also 
involve preparing lua startup scripts in the case of kpse overloading 
and such

 - fix fmtutil and updmap so that they do the right thing for ConTeXt
   
i cannot answer that bacuse i don't use updmap but others on this list 
may know
 - or implement a way to automate calling texexec.  This would include
   using some configuration file, since not everybody who has aleph or
   xetex installed also wants a context format for this engine.
   
indeed; for now you can safely assume that those using aleph of xetex 
will make formats with texexec --make --xetex | --aleph if only 
because they need to be able to tweak their system to the latest 
features in those systems anyway (esp xetex involves  more than just the 
xetex binary)
 To me, as a TeXlive and teTeX guy, it seems preferrable to choose option
 1 and fix the existing distribution scripts.  However, I don't know yet
 what else is needed when ConTeXt is updated, therefore I might be wrong,
 and switching to texexec might actually be better.  But then this should
 be done consistently, and fmtutil should drop context handling
 completely (or just call texexec).
   
just calling texexec may be a safe option; handling context directly is ok, but 
then it should be able to handle engine paths (but that has been fixed by now, 
if i understood the other mails right)

Do you think it's possible to say something like:

Note that ./png-images seems to look for

 For moral support only: Yes, twice!


 two misfeatures are below my threshold -)

 one problem with figures is that one (tex) never really knows where they end 
 up but when i have time i will look into it

Is it possible to provide an option, say topofnextpage, which is just 
like top, but does not attempt to place the figure on the top current 
page? This way, as an author, I can ask tex not to place the figure on 
the top of current page.

I wanted to warn you about that, but you were faster. A workaround is
to create an additional space: so to \type{\commands }like that.

There are many bugs in \type-ing code, but the code is rather complex
... even Taco complaind about complexity.

Hopefully lua will be able to do the task better ;)

 Der Gesetzesvorbehalt\index{Gesetzesvorbehalt} verlangt für eine
 grundrechtsbeeinträchtigende staatliche Maßnahme eine
 Rechtsgrundlage. Die Problematik der Altschulden“regelung“ besteht
 darin, daß sich ihr Regelungsgehalt (Fortbestand der
 Altverbindlichkeiten) nicht einer einzigen Norm entnehmen läßt,
 sondern hierfür eine Reihe von Einzelvorschriften der beiden
 Staatsverträge und des D|-|Markbilanzgesetzes herangezogen werden
 müssen. Zudem mußten die Regelungen über die
 Entschuldungsmöglichkeiten den Anforderungen des Gesetzesvorbehalts
 genügen.

 Hinsichtlich \index{Gesetzesvorbehalt} des Fortbestand der
 Altschulden fehlt zwar eine ausdrückliche Regelung; aus den genannten
 Einzelvorschriften kann aber auf deren Fortbestehen geschlossen werden

 somit einen mittelbar zum Ausdruck gebrachten Willen als
 Eingriffsgrundlage ausreichen\footnote{BVerfGE 95, 267 (306).}. Schon
 in früheren Judikaten ist es davon ausgegangen, daß sich die
 Regelungsabsicht des Gesetzgebers nicht ohne weiteres aus dem
 Wortlaut ergeben muß, sondern daß es genügt, wenn der
 gesetzgeberische Wille mit Hilfe der allgemeinen Auslegungsmethoden
 erschlossen werden kann\footnote{Vgl. BVerfGE 82, 209 (224) m.\,w.
 \,N.}. Bei Anwendung dieser Grundsätze zeigt sich zunächst, daß der
 Gesetzgeber die Altschuldenfrage weder positiv noch negativ, sondern
 im Grunde gar nicht beantwortet hat. Die staatsvertraglichen und
 einfachgesetzlichen Einzelvorschriften, die der BGH für seine
 Gesamtschau heranzieht, nehmen lediglich Bezug auf bestehende
 „Verbindlichkeiten“. Deren Existenz gilt es aber gerade zu belegen
 \footnote{Ausführlich zu den von einem Teil der zivilrechtlichen
 Literatur geäußerten Zweifeln \it{W.~Harms}, DZWir 1993, 123 (124).}.
 Gleichwohl ist mit dem Bundesverfassungsgericht vom Fortbestand der
 Altschulden auszugehen, wofür vor allem die Existenz der
 verschiedenen Entschuldungsmöglichkeiten streitet. Gestützt wird das
 Ergebnis durch den vom Senat ins Spiel gebrachten allgemeinen
 kollisionsrechtlichen Grundsatz, daß die nicht unmittelbar
 verfassungsrechtlich begründeten Rechtsbeziehungen – gleich ob
 systemgeprägt oder systemneutral – bei einem Verfassungswechsel
 regelmäßig bestehen bleiben, sofern nicht ihre Aufhebung ausdrücklich
 angeordnet wurde\footnote{BVerfGE 95, 267 (306\,f.) mit weiteren
 Nachweisen aus der Rechtsprechung des BGH zum intertemporalen

 Fall aber unstreitig nicht vor.

 In anderer Hinsicht problematisch waren die Entschuldungsregelungen.
 Art.\,25 III EinigungsV und §\,16 III DMBilG schrieben nur die
 Entschuldungsmöglichkeit fest. Das Verfahren jedoch, vor allem die
 Voraussetzungen und der Umfang der Entschuldung, wurde nur in zwei
 nicht veröffentlichten Arbeitsanweisungen\index{Gesetzesvorbehalt–
 Arbeitsanweisungen durch Bundesminister} des Bundesministers der
 Finanzen\index{Arbeitsanweisungen des Bundesministers der Finanzen}
 geregelt. Fraglich war somit, ob dies den vom
 Bundesverfassungsgericht aufgestellten Anforderungen des
 Gesetzesvorbehalts genügte, wonach alle wesentlichen Fragen vom
 Parlament selbst entschieden werden müssen\footnote[332]{BVerfGE 33,
 125 (158); 34, 165

I understand that this is one of the more tricky things in TeX. Right 
now, Mojca's workaround of adding a space after the comand works most

in that case the whole pretty printing is done in lua ; in tex we have to use 
aftergroup stuff and the problem is that info is lost on the way (ok, there is

 Sorry, I see my question was'nt clear enough.

 Is there a way to restore all the images included in a figure library

 I could then delete the original images.
   
in principle one could extract them but one also has to make sure that no 
xforms are used then, otherwise after a few cycles one ends up with many nested 
xforms; think of something   

\startTEXpage 
\externalfigure[yourbase.pdf][page=1,object=no]
\stopTEXpage 

another option is to use pdfimages (which can extract bitmaps); it's probably 
no big deal to extend rlxtools with an option do extract the images and give 
them their original names; maybe on a rainy day ...

   When using bitmap figures (.png etc.) using \externalfigure, is it 
possible to set that I want the picture to have it's original size in 
pixels; or, better, that I don't want it to be scaled? I'm using some 
pictures that look terrible when converted to a different size, even if 
the new size is close to the original one.

 In anderer Hinsicht problematisch waren die Entschuldungsregelungen.
 Art.\,25 III EinigungsV und §\,16 III DMBilG schrieben nur die
 Entschuldungsmöglichkeit fest. Das Verfahren jedoch, vor allem die
 Voraussetzungen und der Umfang der Entschuldung, wurde nur in zwei
 nicht veröffentlichten Arbeitsanweisungen\index{Gesetzesvorbehalt–
 Arbeitsanweisungen durch Bundesminister} des Bundesministers der
 Finanzen\index{Arbeitsanweisungen des Bundesministers der Finanzen}
 geregelt. Fraglich war somit, ob dies den vom

 Gesetzesvorbehalts genügte, wonach alle wesentlichen Fragen vom
 Parlament selbst entschieden werden müssen\footnote[332]{BVerfGE 33,

Re: [NTG-context] PNG pictures in original size

Hi,

When using bitmap figures (.png etc.) using \externalfigure, is it 
 possible to set that I want the picture to have it's original size in 
 pixels; or, better, that I don't want it to be scaled? I'm using some 
 pictures that look terrible when converted to a different size, even if 
 the new size is close to the original one.
   
just saying \externalfigure[blabla.png]

should work

 Hi Steffen,

 After adding

 I get as expected an index. The only thing which I do not understand 
 quite well, is, that the entry for
 \index{Gesetzesvorbehalt� Arbeitsanweisungen durch Bundesminister} 
 results in the references 2,1,2, where I would expect only 1,2.
   
that's indeed the problem (has to do with the fact that the main item has 
subitems + a main item ; i already sent S a potential fix

Does somebody know whether it is possible and how it is possible to
place the caption of a figure in the margin?
  
  
yes, actually i implemented this last week but i need to update the details manual; captions can go in margins, hang in centered figures, there is support for all kind of inner/outer alignments etc 



Great!
I looked at the source to find out how to do it. Am I right in thinking
that this should work?

\setupcaptions[location=outermargin]
\starttext
\placefigure{Caption}{\framed{Figuur}}
\stoptext

However, when I try this, there is no caption printed at all. Am I doing
something wrong?
(Perhaps, can I be of any assistance?)

Alex

Guessing: is not the index entry inside the \chapter title which also 
goes to content (or another list) that is on a separate page numbering?

 Quick test here works fine. Can you post a small example file?

below I attach a LaTeX and a ConTeXt version. In xpdf the LaTeX
version gives me the link that launches urlCommand, whereas the
ConTeXt version presents the url text, but does not make it a link. In
acroread both documents result in links, however they are presented
slightly different.

Thanks,

Re: [NTG-context] Directories of pictures

2006-10-25 Thread Sanjoy Mahajan
 Note that ./png-images seems to look for 
  current_shell_directory/png-images.
 
   
 what is tex_file_directory? 

I'm guessing the directory in which the tex source file lives, what
I often wished TeX used as its search path for relative paths -- the
way some (all?) C compilers will when looking for include files.

Add

\setupinteraction[state=start]

in the beginning of the file.

 In acroread both documents result in links, however they are 
 presented slightly different.

That is because acroread tries to guess the url from the text.
