Re: [NTG-context] interaction fails with footnotes (was: xml with interaction fails in footnotes)
Have you updated to the latest context minimals version. That might
solve the problem. I had a similar problem with including a clickable
URL in a footnote. Updating solved it.

Correction: It doesn't work fine outside xml, too, when again put in a
footnote.[1] So forget about the xml part. Interaction seems to be the
culprit.

[NTG-context] xml with interaction fails in footnotes
Good evening all,
I'm experiencing a weird behaviour when using my module to transliterate
stuff in a footnote. ConTeXt fails with an undefined control sequence
if an only if I switch on interaction.
The issue vanishes when I removing either the footnote environment or
the interaction or the transliteration or the tag with the text to be
transliterated.
In the following minimal example I specified the lines that will make
context process the file when commented out. Please note that
everything works fine outside xml as the transliteration immediately
after “\starttext” demonstrates.
Thanks for any help,
Philipp

This has 4 columns. You do not get an error message because you use \cr
instead of \NR. That also messes up the alignment of the next equation.

Apart from what Hannes wrote, one of advantages that I see is that for someone who is not actively participating, it's a bit annoying to recieve 40 mails per day that do not interest him at all just in order to be able to recieve the answer. If there would be some software, I would prefer a solution that would work as a hybrid between forum and mailing list though (for someone who is not willing to be subscribed, it would work as a forum with ability to mark that one wants to get a notification when someone answers). For others it would work as a mailing list ... It would also be nice to be able to add some additional marks. For example, I would find it helpful if users (or maybe a few moderators) could mark threads with: - bug report / feature request / question for usage / discussion - waiting for satisfactory answer / resolved / fixed - some topic-related marks then it would also be easier to search through archives (for example if one would decide to write an extensive testbed including all the bugs that have ever appeared or if Hans had plenty of time and decided to review pending feature requests etc.).

Hello, Two Germans suggested to start a forum in addition to the existing mailing list. Even though it might be a problem to get enough active people to participate, I see no reason for not enabling the forum on the garden as opposed to using some arbitrary web page. Any thoughts, ideas and comments about selection of software for running a forum are welcome. (I was also thinking about HyperNews which is a forum with "mailing list interface".)

[NTG-context] Numbered descriptions
Hi!
Going on with "ConTeXt an excursion".
Using Windows XP, the minimals, TeXworks and *MkIV*
I have a problem with the enumerated descriptions.
With the following source (taken from the "Hasselt book" :-) ):
---
\starttext
Some text here
\defineenumeration
[remark]
[location=top,text=Remark,inbetween=\blank,after=\blank]
\remark In the early medieval times Hasselt was a place of pilgrimage.
\subremark Nowadays the {\em Heilige Stede} is closed.
Here some text before group 2.

I get the following numbering
Remark 1
Remark 1.1
Remark 2.1
Remark 2.2
Remark 3.2
Remark 3.3
I would expect 1, 1.1, 2, 2.1, 3, 3.1
I f put:
\setupenumerations[remark][headstyle=bold]
\setupenumerations[subremark][headstyle=slanted]
before group 2, I get
Remark 1
Remark 1.1
Remark 1
Remark 1.1
Remark 2.1
Remark 2.2
numbering is reset starting with group 2 (I think this is normal) but
still the following numbering is odd.
Any explanation?
Many thanks,
Alain

the advantage is that if you then do
{\WhateverSmallcaps bla \bf bla} you'd get a bold smallcaps, given that
there is one; if we're talking open type, a dynamic feature switch works
as well: \addff{smallcaps}
some of these mkii things (\os, \sc) are often side effects of tex
originally using cm fonts mostly, where oldstyle were sitting in a math
font so we needed a special command

It wasn't intuitive to me, as a user, that a relatively small change (from, say, oldstyle to superiors) would take a much bigger switch (of the whole bodyfont) than would a relatively big change (from, say, roman to italic, which only needs a little \it). I wrote a set of font switches once (in LaTeX) that were all little digraph codes (major axis: rm, it, sl, ui; minor axis: rg, ac, sc, sw, in, su, nu, de, po, pl, to, tl + ornaments, which handles all of the variations that Adobe makes, anyway). Maybe I'll be able to reproduce it once I get this working. > > I get the error: > > !undefined control sequence > > \usetypescript > > l.12 \usetypescript > > [GaramondPrem] > Then we will need your example - this is not normal behavior. okay: First, I put an almost exact copy of your file (with your comments commented out) in type-garamondprem.tex in C:\contextminimal\tex\texmf-local and ran luatools --generate, which seems to see the directory alright. Then I put the commands: \usetypescriptfile [type-garamondprem] \usetypescript [GaramondPremUpper] \usetypsecript [GaramondPrem] \setupbodyfont [GaramondPrem,12pt] in my preamble, with nothing else. When I try to run Context, the above error was returned. For the record, here is the exact contents of type-garamondprem.tex: %So we define a set of such features for the different font instances we want to define. %In my case, I want regular text with oldstyle figures, small caps with lining figures, and superior numerals.

[NTG-context] fig-base MKIV
Hello,
I have a problem with the following code section:
.
\usemodule[fig-base]
\usefigurebase[drivepictures]
.
\midaligned{\externalfigure[cabinet][width=7cm]}
If I run this code with MKII all the pictures are placed in the
document from my picture datebase.
If I run this code with MKIV I got only dummy pictures.
What do I have do change? Is there a bug in MKIV?
Thomas
