[NTG-context] footnotes
Hello! Nearly one year ago I posted a question about alignment of footnote-numbers to the list. I then was occupied by other projects, so I now want to catch up and thank you for your replies.I am now again trying to make some work using Context. At first, I have to state that I am impressed about the advancement of Context. But I still have some problems with footnotes: 1. My annoying alignment problem. We now have headalign=flushright, that is the right direction, but not sufficient. What I additionally need is that the width of the number-box is determined by the broadest number on the page, ie I need to have 1 2 3 ... but on the other page: ~8 ~9 10 of course the same with 99 and 100 and so on. In an ideal world, the indent of the footnote-text would also change, but for the moment I could live with an equal indent for all pages having only the alignment of the notes change. I then did some research, read the mail-list etc. What I found on the list was a short message about \doifnoteonsamepageelse, I thougt it could be a starting-point. But trying the given example \starttext \dorecurse {100} { test \footnote{\doifnoteonsamepageelse[footnote]{ibidem}{aaa}} } \stoptext gave me 100 nice little notes, all containing aaa, which was not what I had expected... I then wanted to figure out a little more what was happening, tried to enable tracking with \enabletrackers[structure.notes], but could not find any of the expected messages in the log? What is going on? Because this problem is a real show stopper for me, I hope you can help me getting a solution. 2. The second, but not equal important problem is multicolum footnotes. It seems only to work with very short footnotes, in my example \setupnote[footnote][n=2, columndistance=12pt] \starttext This is just for \footnote{note1} testing This is just for \footnote{note1} testing This is just for \footnote{note1} testing This is just for \footnote{note1} testing This is just for \footnote{This is a very long note which will cover multiple lines.

Instead put an alias in ~/.bashrc alias activatecontext=source $HOME/usr/context/tex/setuptex When you need to use context, execute `activatecontext` and use that shell. If you use an integrated editor, start it from the shell where you activate it. Do you want to use LaTeX or the old context shipped by the distro? Start a fresh shell.

[NTG-context] How about a forum
Hi everybody, I am trying to get into Context again. The documentation seems to be somewhat better than one year ago (my last attempt) but still very suboptimal. Many information (as well on Contextgarden as on Pragma) is outdated, for example, the xml document on Pragma is dated 2001, the first document on the context wiki does not mention mkiv (ok, at least now there is a hint that something should be done about that). For a newbie like me, the best chance of information seems to be the mailing-list, where one can find a lot of gems. After spending this cold and snowy sunday afternoon with the mailing-list (and i got no further than to september 2010) I am wondering why there ist no forum for Context. I spend a lot of time getting into new themes, and I always like the functions of forums. I think in a forum the acces to the relavant information could be very quicklier than in a Mailing-List - which is in my opinion a relict of the information possibilities of the 1990 (last century, only a minute away from the middle ages :-). Dont get me wrong, I like the unbelievable support which is done on the mailing-list, but i think today there could be more efficient possibilities. Any suggestions on that?

Re: [NTG-context] How about a forum
I'm around since prehistoric times, before internet, before wifi, before TeX... So, what is the difference between a forum and threads on a mailing list? After all, the mailing list is archived (like a forum) and is searchable. In fact, a google search on typesetting keywords often comes-up with the ConTeXt mailing list - evidence of its activity! I do not like/use forums, as they require going to some web site and choosing a category, often badly structured, and thus opaque. Would a ConTeXt forum present any advantages over the mailing list?

I think, the efficiency of mailing-list or forum depends on the tools you use. For me, a mailing-list is much more efficient, because I can use my favorite tools (editor, MUA, mail-filter, search-tools, spell-checker, etc.). For a forum, I would depend on the web-browser (less efficient for me). The other question is: Forum _and_ mailing-list or forum _instead_ of mailing-list? In the first case, you could divide users and developers perhaps into 2 groups, only some of them would monitor both, list _and_ forum. The second case is probably not an option.

Any suggestions on that? You can try tex.stackexchange.com, a stack stack-overflow-like site dedicated to TeX. There are a few ConTeXt related posts there. I find it good for small questions, but it does not allow you to attach files, so it is limiting. Moreover, the support on any forum or mailing list is only as good as its members. The good thing about the context mailing list is that the ConTeXt developers and power users read it, and reply to questions. Unless the same happens for online forums, they will have limited utility.
