Hi,
So I understand that both statements:
\loadmarkfile{m-graph}
\usemodule[graph]
are actually the same thing!

Re: [NTG-context] Fwd: setuptex.csh usage
Hello, setuptex (sh, bash, ...) has most definitions commented out and to work with the minimals seems to need only to set the PATH. I currently use the minimals for ConTeXt, and TeXlive for LaTeX (for article submission, where I cannot use ConTeXt). Having the minimals in my PATH before TeXlive works fine this way (TeXlive lualatex is found correctly), but it does cause problems with bibtex, for example, where the minimals binary is found first with this PATH. setuptex.csh is less maintained, it appears. I no longer use (t)csh and I see that Mojca and Arthur propose to remove this script. I have no objection, but it does appears from this thread that it is indeed still used. Alan P.S. by the way [concerning the (ba)sh version], I take care of the verbose echo locally, as: if [ -r /usr/local/context/beta/tex/setuptex ]; then if [ x$PS1 == x ] ; then source /usr/local/context/beta/tex/setuptex /dev/null else source /usr/local/context/beta/tex/setuptex fi fi (otherwise this will cause trouble for rsync, for example) so the portion: # for Alan Braslau's server :) if [ x$PS1 != x ] ; then echo Setting \$TEXROOT\ as ConTeXt root. fi can be simplified, if Mojca wishes. :) On Thursday 30 December 2010 20:29:56 Patrick Gundlach wrote: Hi Jon, you should post your question to the mailing list.

I forgot that I had used setuptex.csh to establish env vars for the running terminal session and then later terminated it. I intend for the foreseeable future to continue to use this convenience; I thank you for providing it, and hope you do not discontinue it. I want to continue to use texlive both at the command line and with some gui front-ends, and want to be able to keep the context minimals separate. In my inexperience I perhaps am not seeing a more effective way to do this, but your shell script works, and I hesitate to mess about with what works.

Re: [NTG-context] How to get graph module (metapost) to work with ConTeXt minimals?
The correct method is to use:
\usemodule [graph]
and then you can type, for example:
\startMPcode
draw begingraph(8cm,6cm) ;
gdraw (0,0)--(1,1) ;
endgraph ;
\stopMPcode
to include a graph with your text.
As pointed out, under mkiv, metapost is processed under one
continuous run, so definitions are retained. This is to be kept
in mind, as some metapost code can then yield errors, in particular,
inconsistent equations and the like.

Hi,
This might not be the right place to ask this question, but want to give
it a try anyway!
I've installed the ConTeXt minimals (Mark IV!) recently, and running the
command:
context --version
yields the following output:
...
MTXrun | current version: 2010.07.30 11:35
Now I want to generate a few plots using the graph-module (by John D.
Hobby) of MetaPost, which I used in the past to make high-quality plots.
But when I add the following statement:
input graph ;
to the preamble of my MetaPost file and run the command:
mpost plot.mp
The run aborts with the following messages:
texnum.mp
texnum.mpx
! Unable to make mpx file.
l.17 init_numbers(btex
$-$etex, btex$1$etex, btex${\times}10$etex,

l.17 init_numbers(btex

So where to go from here? Do I need to install additional TeX related
stuff to get it working? Anybody any suggestions, please? Thanks in
advance!

Gerard Verhaag
P.S.
By the way, if I use MetaPost within ConTeXt using:
\loadmarkfile{m-graph}
\starttext
\startMPcode
.
/[MetaPost code]
.
/ \stopMPcode
\stoptext
than everything works just fine!

Hi Gerard,
that's because of a change in ConTeXts metapost, you can use
\startMPpage
Your MP Code here
\stopMPpage
MetaPost from ConTeXt is not able without big changes to run standalone,
so you might need to load the MetaPost version from TeXlive, the way how
to do so depends on your OS...
Greetings
Hi Martin,
Okay, thanks for your answer!
Embedding the code in my ConTeXt file works well, but I was used to
obtain my MetaPost figures seperately using the mpost-command!
Regards,
Gerard Verhaag

[NTG-context] export and pagebreak
Hi all,
first I wish a very happy new year to everybody! I think, this will be
my last post for this year, but as i have tasted blood, the next year I
will post a lot of further questions I think :-)
Now I have Christmas holidays and can play the whole day with ConTeXt. I
tested a little the export function. There is one thing I have on my
wishlist:
is it possible to get a pagebreak/ into the exported XML? The
background is that I have often the requirement to include
pagebreak-info in online-productions (for citation reasons) and that
could be a very good starting point. In fact, in the moment at the
position where a pagebreak occurs, the space (if it occurs at a space)
is eaten up. Minimal example:
\setupbackend [export=yes]
\starttext
\startchapter [title=Tufte Example]
\startparagraph
\dorecurse{10}{\input tufte}
\stopparagraph
\stopchapter
\stoptext
At the break of pg 2 to pg 3 you will find lump,skip (without the space)
in the exported file. Having the pagebreaks would be a great thing for me.
Greetings
Achim
