Re: [NTG-context] The ConTeXt book
Ah, I was going to respond in an offlist email to Arthur that I am available for help. My masters thesis, though evolved considerably since I first submitted a vague description some months ago, is still significantly focused on ConTeXt.

All this discussion of poor documentation at times brings fear into my enthusiasm for this thesis. On the one hand I do not wish to rely on mk.II, and on the other I've heard people say that any projects they begin in mk.IV end up being written for mk.II for stability purposes.

I think I use texlive (current debian unstable).
I also think I found the problem :)
I've been using the http://pmrb.free.fr/work/OS/ConTeXt/e-phd.tex + project file
and it seems that there's something wrong with the order of the commands. The
original verion:
\startproduct prd_phd
\project project_phd
\starttext
\setuppublications[alternative=apa,
refcommand=short,
autohang=yes,
numbering=short,
sorttype=bbl,
criterium=all]
\placepublications[criterium=all]
\stoptext
\stopproduct
This does not work. This, however, works:
\setuppublications[alternative=apa,
refcommand=short,
autohang=yes,
numbering=short,
sorttype=bbl,
criterium=all]
\starttext
\startproduct prd_phd
\project project_phd
\chapter{Bibliography}
\placepublications[criterium=all]
\stopproduct
\stoptext
So, I don't know if it's a bug or not or if it's the way it should be and was
just an inattention by the one who wrote the original product-file.

Yes, that's indeed good to know. My MAIN problem with mkiv is that I can't get interaction bars working. I posted two basic setups a while ago, and while they work fine in mkii, they fail in mkiv. Never got a response ...

I have the luck to be entering typographical programming at a new stage. To what degree can luatex be relied on to accomplish all that TeX macros can? Does certain functionality still require TeX code? the same and more, it's still tex but we can now extend using lua so we can go beyond what normal tex can do Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___ ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
Re: [NTG-context] Bibtex: how to make autohang work?
Dear Peter, e-phd.tex is an environment file. Since it's about 5 years old, it's unlikely that it works with current context out of the box. It's just on the web-site, to show what settings I've used to get the resulting pdf-file. I think I got those files from renojrl.lrv.uvsq.fr ages ago. I've been using it as a draft and have been changing it quite a lot but got some good ideas from it. There's always to learn something new.

[NTG-context] InteractionsBar - another shot
Dear al,
let me try again:
The following works in mkii but all the buttons get squeezed together
in mkiv. I have the hunch that I'm doing something that I am not
supposed
to which just accidentally works in mkii. But I can't figure out what.
Thanks,
Matthias

Just see the sad affair of Context's docs so that the 'book' is topic for the April's 1st joke. :-( If it wouldn't be so sad, it would be funny... At the moment I'm looking to learn jQuery and, rest assured, there are several books to choose from. Being a 'book' guy, it's hard to find any significant project without either up-to-date manual or some books available, and I definitely consider that ConTeXt could be one. However, when I ask somewhere about the support for ConTeXt I'm getting answers like: This is the project which has only 5 or 6 users. Who actually uses it? Use LaTeX! :-( This raises another concern and that is: what is the future of ConTeXt is Hans get hit by the bus? (Of course, we even do not want to think about it...)
