Re: [NTG-context] How to use columns inside another column?
Hi, Hans I've been reading page-str and m-streams these days, but I'm so unfamiliar with ConTeXt's output routine. So one thing leads to another, I have to read more files to look for the definitions of some low-level macros used in these files. And I get confused. Maybe this kind of extension is too hard for me now. Could you give me an example (as small as possible) to make subpages and combine them onto one page? By the way, the m-streams module seems not working pretty well with columns. I think maybe more setups should be put into "streamlayer:block:settings" but I really don't know what to do.

Perhaps I should elaborate and recast the problem. I am typesetting a
text that includes a great number of URLs, which I have entered
\useURL and \goto. Most of these URLs wrap nicely, but a there are a
few which insist on running out into the margin. Now I thought I
could handle this by introducing discretionary hyphens in the second
field of \useURL because, so I thought, this field is a label and not
the URL itself (which is in the fourth field). Plainly this is not
working. So, if I cannot use discretionary hyphens {?), how do I get
all the URLS to wrap properly?

[NTG-context] Alternating screen/noscreen rows on table
I am required by my customer to alternate between white and screen backgrounds for each row of a table for all tables, and there are lots of tables. I am considering adding code to each row of the table or else doing the thing in metafun/metapost. Advice, anyone? Just to mess things up further she wants the table number etc. above the table and left justified. I can handle that. The customer is not always right but the customer is always the customer.

Re: [NTG-context] Can't create more than about 240 footnotes
I may be off the mark, but I would guess that the two errors are, in
fact, unrelated. I have seen the error about "not enough room left"
with some fonts that have very large kerning tables (such as Garamdon
Premier Pro). The solution was to locate your texmf.cnf and augment
the value of font_mem_size I have 120, but it can be up to
400. Try that, and I hope that the footnote error will go away if
ConTeXt is able to finish all needed runs. You can search for
font_mem_size in the archives, and you'll see quite a few threads!

OK, I can see that. I had a similar problem with a tabulate environment:
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\starttabulate[|rw(3em)|p|]
\NC 38 \NC \dontleavehmode \color[red]{some stupid text} \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
If you take out the \dontleavehmode, you get a spurious blank line.
Is that the same cause?

I changed the sample slightly. With and without \em the cow is placed on

If you withdraw the {This will mess up the rest.} the figure is placed

adding \bgroup of \start and \egroup resp. \stop will not help.

I don't know how to solve the problem you describe, but you can
circumvent it by replacing
textext("\tts 66\%~")
by
\sometxt{\tts 66\%~}
It will also run much faster and more efficient.

I usually use Control-\ I do not think TeX's exit code distinguishes between your pressing X and aborting the run, or just pressing Enter and continuing the run, Best, Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] stopping texexec
I have a fairly hefty tex run, with many intervening metapost figures being made. Running "texmfstart texexec main-file" from a unix shell. When an error occurs, e.g. in the metapost processing, one gives an X to quit that part of tex-processing. However the process goes on and on, because of the many successive invocations. Control-C does not help. Is there a way to stop the texexec processing from running? (other than opening another shell, finding the pid of the main process and killing that).

[NTG-context] New minimal distributions released
Hi, For those of you that use the minimal distributions from Pragma ADE, it may be interesting to know that Hans has uploaded new versions yesterday. The new files are linked from the web pages: http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-1.htm But because of their size, please consider using one of the two mirrors instead. http://mirror.contextgarden.net/download-1.htm http://context.aanhet.net/download-1.htm Happy TeXing, Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
