Hi,
What is the best way of typesetting a url from a variable. For
example, if I have
\setvariables[test][website=http://www.xyz.com/~abc/first_index.html]
how can I print the url. I tried
\starttext
\goto{\getvariable{test}{website}}[URL(\getvariable{test}{website})]
\stoptext
but this does not seem to work. Any suggestions?
Aditya
Hi Aditya,
you should look into the log-file and will see it is a problem with the
tilde
in the url.
I know that the tilde is causing problems, but I do not know how to
prevent that.
\expanded{\setvariables[test][website=http://www.xyz.com/\string~abc/first_index.html]}
\starttext
\goto{\getvariable{garden}{website}}[URL(\getvariable{garden}{website})]
\stoptext
\expanded{\goto{\getvariable{garden}{website}}[URL(\getvariable{garden}{website})]}

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.
it depends on your texinputs variable:
\setupexternalfigures[location={local,global,default}]
here, default will eventually fall back to tex's input path search
\externalfigure[tmp/cow.pdf]
but, there need to be a tmp path relative to one of the paths that make up
texinputs; in context mkiv we can use more clever methods because there we will
have more control over finding and opening files; for now, we depend on what
tex and kpse/web2c provide

Re: [NTG-context] register fine tuning
Sorry, same problem here as with your other posting:
How should I use this hack?
Given that I have a source TEX document (providing the \index{Keyword
and the \placeregister{index}} and those TUI and TOU files.
Where should I store the line below in order to manipulate (filter?)
the TUO?
Do I have to start a new file with a kind of \input command?

-- secret 35

just by typing the changes in one of those helper files?
it should not be to hard to filter the entries from a tuo into
another file and use that one: dirty hack:
\bgroup\def\jobname{copyof}\placeregister\egroup
if needed i can provide a \setupregister[file=copyof] feature ;
in mkiv there will be more control because we may move index

hm, you really want to do that now?
i'll make a beta that can do:
\placeregister[index]
\placeregister[index][file=testtest]
so, you can copy test.tuo to testtest.tuo and them edit testtest.tuo to suit
your needs
of course, you need to keep in mind that it is possible to edit testtest.tuo to
the extend that it starts influencing pagenumbers and such

OK, since we're speaking of registers, may I repeat my question from
last weekend and add something that could be a bug? First, here's the
question:
I have defined a special index which will typeset numbers in bold:
\setupregister[index][imp][pagestyle=bold]
which I invoke like
\index[imp::]{modernity}
How can I get a register range to use this special style? I tried
something like
\startregister[imp][signi][signifie]{\em signifié}
but get errors missing csname. What am i overlooking?
And then the bug: I want a \seeindex entry to be typeset in italics,
but there seems to be a problem; I get this error message:
Runaway argument?

Your demimed ConTeXt source: == \starttext \useURL[imara-web-page][http://imara.csail.mit.edu][http://imara.csail.mit.edu] An interesting project can be found at \url[imara-web-page]. \stoptext == (by the way, I find it easiest if example tex code is placed inline in a message, unless it needs attaching due to strange character codes or whitespace issues, in which case quoted-printable encoding makes it easier to scan than base64 encoding does.) From an earlier message in this thread: Here is an example that I put on the wiki (because I kept forgetting how to do it and wanted one place to find it again, but I never can find it quickly there anyway, so now it's in the list archives at least): \setupcolors[state=start] \setupinteraction[state=start,color=middlered] \useURL [garden][http://contextgarden.net][][Context garden] \starttext The \from[garden] is useful. \stoptext I just tested it on the live context and it works fine with an active link in the pdf file. But it didn't work in the 2006.10.05 beta (the space in the Context garden caused problems). Maybe your example didn't have \setupinteraction[state=start] ? Which looks like one of the problems. For the other, you need to replace \url with \from, giving: \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \useURL[imara-web-page][http://imara.csail.mit.edu][http://imara.csail.mit.edu] An interesting project can be found at \from[imara-web-page]. \stoptext which works fine here.
