Re: [NTG-context] extra math symbols and alignment
Hi Wim,
Quoting WN [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I tried your code and performed more tests. My first tests show your fix
works. But than I added a \section{} in my test code and I am sorry
to say that
the math matrix alignment does not work at that point.
:-) Section modifies \!!counta so things get messed up again. Actually,
this really helped to narrow down the bug. Basically, dostartmatrix
does a test
\scratchcounter=\ifnum\eqaligncolumn\scratchcounter \eqaligncolumn
\else \plusone \fi
which is comparing eqaligncolmn with scratch counter, but
scratchcounter is never initialized. Therefore, everything depends on
what was the value of scratchcounter, which explains, different
behaviour depending on when the matrix occurred, and why you had a
hard time pinning down a minimal example.
The fix is easy, change the scratchcounter to zerocount (or maybe just
change to \ifcase\eqaligncolunm). So add this to your file,

[NTG-context] Detail on footnote placement (vertical, page)
Hi, if, at the last page of a chapter, there is only little text (e.g. 10% of text-height) is it then possible to attach the footnote-rule and the footnote-text directly under the text (but only this page – the other pages should place the footnote-text flush-bottom) in order to avoid a huge empty white space between body-text and footnote-text?

Re: [NTG-context] extra math symbols and alignment
Hi Aditya
I tried the new code you send me, and of course I did a quick test.
But when doing a texmfstart texexec --autopdf --pdf testalignfontnew.tex
texexec hangs ''forever'' while trying to process the \section{} command.
Actually its pdftex trying to do something.
To make sure I did not make a edit mistake, I copied my old test code into
the file testalignfontnew.tex and run a diff to see where the difference
with the new code
are.
Looking at the code (and I am not a Tex expert, and forgive me, when I
ask a dumb question)
I don't see where the \scratchcounter itself is defined ? Must surely be
a global Context counter ?
Attached the new test code.
Hope it helps the debugging process and thanks for all your help sofar.

Yes. \scratchcounter is defined in syst-gen (IIRC). So are a bunch of

I can not really check the font stuff, since I do not have txfonts and

fine. I am attaching the test for just the matrix alignment. When I get
