[NTG-context] Minor error in code, core-tab.tex
Hi I was reading core-tab.tex on http://source.contextgarden.net/core-tab.tex (trying to learn a little...) Sorry I have no line numbers, but about two-thirds of the way down that file, by chance I think I found an error: \bgroup \catcode`\|=\@@other \gdef\@@otherbar {|} \catcode`\"=\@@other \gdef\@@otherquite {"} \catcode`\|=\@@active \gdef\@@useotherbar {\let|\@@otherbar} \catcode`\"=\@@active \gdef\@@useotherquote{\let"\@@otherquote} \egroup The second \catcode line contains \gdef\@@otherquite, which I'm almost positive should be \gdef\@@otherquote . I hope this helps.

(I sometimes see some dotted ghost lines at some places; I don't know where they come from.) Additionally, I think it uses a lot of "solid ink" when turned on. This might be not a problem for the office where it is always on (like here, including during the night), but for home that would be not the right thing. ;-) Otherwise, I find the solid ink (which reminds me on wax crayon) quite nice to handle, it works quite well with also more complicated files and the colors look quite nice.

[NTG-context] Applelaserwriter 360 - Any suggestion for good replacement?
Dear Context List users: in the old days the AppleLaserwriter 360 was an exceptional printer with very good Postscript support for the Basic postscript fonts. I am now at a loss in deciding which Laser printer to purchase in a reasonable price range with postscript support, a reasonable amount of ram and network support. I would welcome hints from List users as to their recommendations and suggestions, also from the TeX and Context point of view. Color support is not the most important factor, while graphics is.

I tried your module also with my ancient ConTeXt from august last year and it did also show this effect. Your module is broken since a very long time.
