Hi,

if he has this problem only at one place and has no time he could
use TeX's halign primitive because this did still work.

It is also easy to write a simple wrapper around this this emulate
ConTeXt's table syntax.

\starttext

\startcolumns[rule=on]
\halign{\strut#\quad&\hfil#\cr
one: & text \cr
two: & text \cr
three: & text \cr
four: & text \cr
five: & text \cr
six: & text \cr
seven: & text \cr
eight: & text \cr}
\stopcolumns

Replace this line with

\expanded{\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n,\currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}*broad]}

to force expansion of \currentmoduleparameter.


You can also use
  \setupbibliography
as a abbreviation for
  \setupitemgroup[bibliography]

You can the answer in the big manual (cont-enp), it explains the symbols
are defined with \definesymbol and the counters values (n, r, r ... keys)
with \defineconversion.

> 2) What is that existing option 'start' for? Take this as an example

If I understand the source correct it should begin the itemize with the
level you give with the start value, with the value 2 in your example the
outer itemize group should start with itemlevel 2 and we should get
the dash symbol as item marker but either this did not work I am wrong.

I tried this with the following example but the output off both items
are the same.

\starttext

\startitemize
\item Text
\stopitemize

\setupitemize[start=2]

\startitemize
\item Text
\stopitemize

\stoptext

Re: [NTG-context] Context replacement for bibitem

2007-08-29 Thread Peter Schorsch
Hi,

first thanks for your help. I got it working at the basic-level. I put it
into a module for the case that other beginner looking for the
bibitem-replacement. But two questions are left before I think, that the
module could be uploaded to the wiki:

- how to make the 12*broad flexible? \currentmoduleparamter{itemspace}*broad
is not working :-(
- how to make that the \item are right-aligned? itemalign=right is also not
working


Here is the module-code followed by an appliance-example:
---the module:

\startmodule[biblist]

\unprotect

%\setupmodule[itemspace=12]

\defineitemgroup[bibliography]
\setupitemgroup[bibliography][levels=1,left={[},right={]},stopper=]
\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n,12*broad]
%\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n
\currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}*broad]

\def\bibitem[#1]#2{\doifemptyelse{#2}
{\item[#1]}
{\sym{\cap{#2}}\textreference[#1]{\cap{#2

\def\bibref[#1]#2{\doifemptyelse{#2}
{[\in[#1]]}
{[\in[#1], #2]}}

---how to use:

Another workaround, slightly less ugly (as long as you count the 
number of \sometxt in the if part.

\startbuffer[test]
   if test :
 label(\sometxt{True}, origin) ;
   else :
 txtnext := txtnext + 1 ;

   label(\sometxt{False}, (10,10)) ;

Hi Wolfgang!

This works!

But two questions remain:

1) I am wondering, how you find such answers. What is your strategie 
searching the sources?
2) What is that existing option 'start' for? Take this as an example 
for question 1).

The columns features are broken for a long time now, esp. with stuff  
like \startlines, \starttabulate etc.

Maybe you could try column sets. I resolved to tables for my lead  
sheets (ugly code, like old HTML).

Wolfgang, Hans,

thanks a lot for your replies, that was extremely helpful.

Ah, so \loadmarkfile is the magic switch. I had the idea to use .mkii  
and .mkiv but couldn't figure out how to. Now that's very useful for  
all further experiments...

Okay, I tried this minimal definition in my typescript:

\definefontfeature
   [jens]
   [mode=node,kern=yes]

\starttypescript [serif] [jenson]
   \definefontsynonym [Jenson-Roman]  [name:AJensonPro- 
Regular]  [features=jens] \stoptypescript

\starttypescript [serif] [jenson]
   \definefontsynonym [Serif]   [Jenson-Roman] [features=jens]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript [Jenson]
   \definetypeface [Jenson] [rm] [serif] [jenson] [default]
\stoptypescript

But still no joy: I don't get any kerning. Tried with all sorts of  
settings for script= and language=, but to no avail.

[NTG-context] balancing colums

2007-08-29 Thread Jörg Hagmann
Sorry for interrupting the luatex discussion with a pedestrian question, 
but my book is almost finished, and this will not be the last one:

In the following minimal example, the left column contains 5, the right 
one 3 lines. I tried \column to get 4 + 4, but it didn't work

\starttext

\startcolumns[rule=on]
\starttabulate[|l|r|]
\NC one: \NC text \NC\NR
\NC two: \NC text \NC\NR
\NC three: \NC text \NC\NR
\NC four: \NC text \NC\NR
\NC five: \NC text \NC\NR
\NC six: \NC text \NC\NR
\NC seven: \NC text \NC\NR
\NC eight: \NC text \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
\stopcolumns

\stoptext

Thanks, Jörg

one option is to make two versions (name.mkii and name.mkiv) and then in 
the name.tex file say \loadmarkfile{name} which will choose the right 
variant then

depends on the way you define things ... maybe the kerning is language 
dependent? kern is a feature

in base mode, we use tex's kerning and ligatures and can only have 
simple replacement, in node mode, mkiv does everything itself

Hi Thomas,

you can try group your pdfTeX typescripts in

\beginOLDTEX ... \endOLDTEX

and your LuaTeX typescripts in

\beginLUATEX ... \endLUATEX

groups, or you make two extra files--one for pdfTeX and one for
LuaTeX--with the file type mkii and mkiv and load them in your
typescript file with \loadmarkfile{type-...}.

[NTG-context] luatex and typescripts/fonts

2007-08-29 Thread Thomas A. Schmitz
Hi guys,

I missed some of the excitement of the last two weeks because I was  
away. I tested the latest versions of ConTeXt and luatex and have  
some problems:

1. Is there a simple switch to between luatex and pdftex? If I want  
to write typescripts with the new name: syntax, I'd like to have the  
old typsecripts as well to remain compatible. So: is there something  
like a simple switch \ifluatex?

2. I tested with a number of OpenType fonts from my Adobe Type  
Classics CD: ConTeXt Mkiv can address these fonts (which is  
wonderful), but it does not read the kerning information. I don't  
know whether this is because Adobe's kerning tables are so big  
(kerning appears to work with the TeXGyre fonts and Latin Modern) or  
because the Adobe fonts have these tables included in a somewhat  
different way.

Will be back with lots of more question re. Greek soon!

All best
