[NTG-context] using pgf/tikz and bib modules together
Apropos the bib module, ConTeXt users wishing to use both the pgf/tikz module (v1.10) and the bib module together, will (currently) have to use the CVS version of pgf because both modules clash with the use of the .aux file. The following was posted by the pgf developer Till Tantau on the pgf maillist: it turns out that, indeed, the .aux writing of the bib module clashes with pgf's usage of the file of the same name. I renamed this stuff to .pgf and it works fine, now. You will need to get the current CVS of pgf since the change is not quite trivial. Alternatively, a quick-and-easy-fix is to find the file pgf/generic/ pgf/utilities/pgfutil-context.def and to delete the three lines having to do with .aux files at the beginning. Then picture remembering will not work (which it does in the CVS), but that may not be a top priority. I'm assuming the new bib module still uses the .aux file for the same purposes as before.

M.J. Kallen wrote: I'm assuming the new bib module still uses the .aux file for the same purposes as before. Yes. It absolutely has to be .aux, because bibtex doesn't accept anything else, but if pgf/tikz support is based on LaTeX/s aux file, it may be possible to merge the two uses. I have no time to check that right now, but please remind me after TUG 2006. Greetings, Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] Font installation
Hello list, I'm trying to install new fonts in my texmf tree but at each try I stop at the same point, when compiling my test file: (./type-doulos.tex) ! Font \*doulos12ptrmtfrm*:=DoulosSil at 12.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found. I've got this problem not only with doulos but with gfs fonts too, and others. Font installation in the texmf tree with texfont works well. I can compile without any problem the texnansi-sil-doulos.tex file (idem with other files). What am I doing wrong?

Hello,
today, lemmas can be based on description/enumeration mechanism (I believe
it's been in ConTeXt since circa January 2006).
Descriptions now accept parameter title=yes. Using that, you can provide a
title to the description. Have a look into core-des.tex.
I found a mysterious startlemma in core-des.tex via the ConTeXt
garden source browser but
Naturally, the example of lemma definition is commented out ;)
Copy
\defineenumeration[lemma][title=yes, titlestyle=\bs, list=lemma]
into your document and try to use
\startlemma{title of the lemma}
blah blah
\stoplemma
Check parameters of descriptions in the manual, you can find some options
related to the title mechanism.
Yours,
D.A.
P.S.: I've achieved the same functionality by means of ugly hacks that
depend on ConTeXt version strongly. That's why I don't send you my
configuration.

[NTG-context] Parsing texexec output
Hi, I was fixing a bug in my AucTeX and found that at present it is difficult to parse the output from texexec. Basically Emacs runs texexec in a buffer in --batchmode, then tries to parse the output whether an error occurred and where. Unfortunately with texexec I don't get any error messages (besides the return code), so if something goes wrong, the user only knows that something isn't right, but not what it is. (It also doesn't print page numbers, either.) In comparison, LaTeX when run in \nonstopmode prints the error message normally and continues to process the file; that makes it easy to parse it, jump to the line where the error was detected and even present the user with an explanation of the error message. In order to get similar features with ConTeXt, it would be nice if texexec could be made to be a little bit more verbose in its --batchmode output. Is there a way to do this currently?

Can anyone test this who can read Hebrew? best take a look at mtxtools; if needed we can generate the definitions ; concerning speed, it will not be that slow, because tex is quite fast on such tests (unless XeTeXcharglyph is slow due to lib access); the biggest thing is to make sure that things don't expand in unwanted ways.
