The clarity you can give classy looking tables with trimmed cmidrules is even more evident in the example on page 9. There's lots of more use of this in the document, but it gets too esoteric to be easily grasped quickly (IMHO). Joh Aditya Mahajan wrote: Hi, The question of how to get tables equivalent to latex's booktabs package has been discussed quite a few times in the past. Booktabs package provides (top|mid|bottom)rule commands and a cmidrule command. The top and bottom rules are 0.08em thick, the midrule is 0.05em thick, and the cmidrules are 0.03em thick. The cmidrules do not extend beyond the columns edge. Here is an example of how to do something similar using tables in context http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table#Booktabs.

So, I copied luatex as texlua, luac and even texluac. It seems like format files was generated (i cannot bet) Actually not; the error you get is because the format file has not been built correctly.

\chapter{From \MKII\ to \MKIV}
Sometime in 2005 the development of \LUATEX\ started, a further
development of \PDFTEX\ and a precursor to \PDFTEX\ version~2. This
\TEX\ variant will provide:
\startitemize[packed]
\item 21--32 bit internals plus a code cleanup
\item flexible support for \OPENTYPE\ fonts
\item an internal \UTF\ data flow
\item the bidirectional typesetting of \ALEPH
\item \LUA\ callbacks to the most relevant \TEX\ internals
\item some extensions to \TEX\ (for instance math)
\item an efficient way to communicate with \METAPOST
\stopitemize
In the tradition of \TEX\ this successor will be downward
compatible in most essential parts and in the end, there is
still \PDFTEX\ version~1 as fall back.
In the mean time we have seen another unicode variant show up,
\XETEX\ which is under active development, uses external
libraries, provides access to the fonts on the operating system,
etc.
From the beginning, \CONTEXT\ always worked with all engines. This
was achieved by conditional code blocks: depending on what engine
was used, different code was put in the format and|/|or used at
runtime. Users normally were unaware of this. Examples of engines
are \ETEX, \ALEPH, and \XETEX. Because nowadays all engines
provide the \ETEX\ features, in August 2006 we decided to consider
those features to be present and drop providing the standard \TEX\
compatible variants. This is a small effort because all code that
is sensitive for optimization already has \ETEX\ code branches for
many years.
However, with the arrival of \LUATEX, we need a more drastic approach.
Quite some existing code can go away and will be replaced by different
solutions. Where \TEX\ code ends up in the format file, along with
its state, \LUA\ code will be initiated at run time, after a \LUA\
instance is started. \CONTEXT\ reserves its own instance of \LUA.
Most of this will go unnoticed for the users because the user
interface will not change. For developers however, we need to
provide a mechanism to deal with these issues. This is why, for the
first time in \CONTEXT's history we will officially use a kind of
version tag. When we changed the low level interface from Dutch to
English we jokingly talked of version~2. So, it makes sense to
follow this lead.
\startitemize[packed]
\item \notabene {\CONTEXT\ \MKI}\quad At that moment we still had a
low level Dutch interface, invisible for users but not for developers.
\item \notabene {\CONTEXT\ \MKII}\quad We now have a low level English
interface, which (as we indeed saw happen) triggers more development by
users.
\item \notabene {\CONTEXT\ \MKIV}\quad This is the next generation of
\CONTEXT, with parts re||implemented. It's an at some points drastic
system overhaul.
\stopitemize
Keep in mind that the functionality does not change, although in
some places, for instance fonts, \MKIV\ may provide additional
functionality. The reason why most users will not notice the
difference (maybe apart from performance and convenience) is that at
the user interface level nothing changes (most of it deals with
typesetting, not with low level details).
The hole in the numbering permits us to provide a \MKIII\ version
as well. Once \XETEX\ is stable, we may use that slot for \XETEX\
specific implementations.
As per August 2006 the banner is adapted to this distinction:
\starttyping
... ver: 2006.09.06 22:46 MK II fmt: 2006.9.6 ...
... ver: 2006.09.06 22:47 MK IV fmt: 2006.9.6 ...
\stoptyping
This numbering system is reflected at the file level in such a way
that we can keep developing the way we do, i.e.\ no files all over
the place, in subdirectories, etc.
Most of the system's core files are not affected, but some may be, like
those dealing with fonts, input- and output encodings, file handling,
etc. Those files may come with different suffixes:
\startitemize
\item \type {somefile.tex}: the main file, implementing the interface
and common code
\item \type {somefile.mkii}: mostly existing code, suitable for good
old \TEX\ (\ETEX, \PDFTEX, \ALEPH).
\item \type {somefile.mkiv}: code optimized for use with \LUATEX, which
could follow completely different approaches
\item \type {somefile.lua}: \LUA\ code, loaded at format generation time
and|/|or runtime
\stopitemize
As said, some day \type {somefile.mkiii} code may show up. Which
variant is loaded is determined automatically at format generation
time as well as at run time.

Re: [NTG-context] still no success
Hello Arthur, So, I copied luatex as texlua, luac and even texluac. It seems like format files was generated (i cannot bet) Actually not; the error you get is because the format file has not been built correctly. And you probably have a problem with your configuration as well because texexec thinks he has to look in /cont-en.fmt for it! On Windows that doesn't even make sense, actually; but you're using Windows, right? Right. There is really no cont-en .lua file int he newest cont-tmf.zip. It's a startup script for LuaTeX, built along with the formats; so it is not distributed and should be built during installation. It is actually build, but found in My Documents...

Re: [NTG-context] luac-texluac-luatex-texlua-...
Hi, What I did on Ubuntu 7.04 (bash shell) was this downloaded justtex.zip and linuxtex.zip from pragma and unzipped them in my home directory. uncommented all the unset commands in setuptex downloaded luatex and the lua compiler i.e luac (found it via google) I think from www.luatex.org and from www.lua.org. I read on the mailing list that you don't need to download them as everything is self contained in the distro. set the unix variable TMP to /TMP (export TMP=/tmp) set the unix variable TEXMFCACHE to TMP (export TEXMFCACHE=/tmp) I think the last step was not needed because the luatools script will set it to $TMP and rename the lua scripts luatools.lua and mtxrun.lua (from the scripts/lua directory) to their extension less counterparts and moved them to the texmf-linux/bin directory. Also did a chmod 755 on them to make them executable. I also made a copy of luatex and named it texlua and put it in the texmf-linux/bin directory. Then after reading the MyWay on MKIV I did a texexec --make --all --luatex to generate the formats and ran succesfully the following tex script and produced a pdf file. % engine=luatex \starttext Hello from luatex \blank LUA \startlua a = 1.5 b = 1.8 c = a*b tex.print(c) \stoplua \stoptext Could be that I forgot some steps but this is what I remember.

[NTG-context] font installation in luatex
Hello,
Have a problem with commercial font installation in luatex.
I have a collection of Adobe Caslon Pro font files:
ACaslonPro-Bold.otf
ACaslonPro-BoldItalic.otf
ACaslonPro-Italic.otf
ACaslonPro-Regular.otf
ACaslonPro-Semibold.otf
ACaslonPro-SemiboldItalic.otf
Arthur said that luatex cannot see system fonts (i.e. those installed in
Windows), as XeTeX do, so I copied the font to texmf --
...\tex\texmf\fonts\opentype\Adobe Caslon Pro folder of mswincontext. (It was
just my guess).
luatools ACaslonPro-Regular.otf shows the right path, so I assumed that
luatex can find it.
I declared this font using rather naive approach (XeTeX-inspired):
\definetypeface
[myface][rm][Serif]
[{ACaslonPro-Regular}]
\setupbodyfont
[myface, 14pt]
But this doesn't work. At the moment I'd be happy if can setup regular and
italic, but have not an idea how to achieve it. Help me, please.

Hello,
Have a problem with commercial font installation in luatex.
I have a collection of Adobe Caslon Pro font files:
ACaslonPro-Bold.otf
ACaslonPro-BoldItalic.otf
ACaslonPro-Italic.otf
ACaslonPro-Regular.otf
ACaslonPro-Semibold.otf
ACaslonPro-SemiboldItalic.otf
Arthur said that luatex cannot see system fonts (i.e. those installed in
Windows), as XeTeX do, so I copied the font to texmf --
...\tex\texmf\fonts\opentype\Adobe Caslon Pro folder of mswincontext. (It
was just my guess).
luatools ACaslonPro-Regular.otf shows the right path, so I assumed that
luatex can find it.
I declared this font using rather naive approach (XeTeX-inspired):
\definetypeface
[myface][rm][Serif]
[{ACaslonPro-Regular}]
\setupbodyfont
[myface, 14pt]
a typeface is made up of regular, bold, italic, bolditalic etc
But this doesn't work. At the moment I'd be happy if can setup regular and
italic, but have not an idea how to achieve it. Help me, please.
mkiv can see system fonts, that is, if you've set the OSFONTDIR
variable, for instance
set OSFONTDIR=c:/windows/fonts//
next you need to make a typescript, e.g. i just installed (commercial)
franklin fonts:
\starttypescript [sans] [franklin]
\definefontsynonym [FranklinBookRegular]
[name:FranklinGothicBookITC-Regular] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym [FranklinMediumRegular]

\definefontsynonym [FranklinDemiRegular]
[name:FranklinGothicDemiITC-Regular] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym [FranklinHeavyRegular]

\definefontsynonym [FranklinBookItalic]
[name:FranklinGothicBookITC-Italic][features=default]
\definefontsynonym [FranklinDemiItalic]

\definefontsynonym [SansSlanted] [SansItalic]
[features=default]
\definefontsynonym [SansBoldSlanted] [SansBoldItalic]

\definetypeface[franklin][mm][math][iwona] [default][rscale=1.02]

etc. context will
forget about the xetex syntax, although low level xetex stuff like
\font=\test=name:ACaslonPro-Regular:liga=yes;
is supported, as is:
\font=\test=name:ACaslonPro-Regular*default
but best define fonts using typescripts

Re: [NTG-context] Booktabs equivalent in Context
Aditya,
In the example you give with CMID you have only two column preambles
whereas the table has 3 columns and if one adds the missing preamble
then one gets an error. Some how your new code breaks the calculation
for number of columns.
