Hi,

  the following works fine for me:
 
 \starttext
 
 %\define[1]\abs{|#1|} % this works
 
 \define[1]\abs{\lvert#1\rvert} % this works too
 
 $\abs{-1} = 1$
 \stoptext

thank you very much for the solution. I took my definition from the Wiki

Could the developers please clarify the correct syntax so that it can be
updated in the source or the Wiki.

I am sorry. I messed up and confused the LaTeX syntax (?) (`texdoc

I am sorry for the noise.

The wiki entry is correct, the syntax is

  \define[number of arguments]\name of the command{do something with the 
arguments}


When you want a command without argument you can omit the brackets and write

  \define\command{...}

IIRC, the namespace was hardcoded in the parser (or the call to the parser). 
Robert's trouble with the cals table could have been resolved if there were a

No, the namespace is just used to isolate code so 'cals' is an 
abstraction. However, the assumption is indeed is that when used in an 
xml file there is a namespace (afaiks in docbook they embed the cals 
model, so it's not used as an independent definition).


When in x-cals.lua the following is used in line 128

local prefix = namespace and namespace ~=  and (namespace .. :) 
or 


one can do this then:

\startxmlsetups xml:cals:nonamespace
\xmlsetfunction {main} {table} {moduledata.cals.table}
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlregistersetup{xml:cals:nonamespace}

(I need to check such a change for side effects.)

(BTW, x-cals-test.xml in the testsuite shows all kind of namespace 
remapping / usage)

In past emails on the list you mention that you are using Snow
Leopard. I guess the same is true for the machine where you tested
MacTeX or do you happen to have some Tiger left somewhere in the
corner?

The weird thing is that the same file worked for me on 64-bit SL
(10.6.7) a few days ago and unless there is some file corruption
present (but then it wouldn't even unzip properly), mactex didn't
change since then.

Mojca

PS: Not relevant for your report, but I would warn you that MacTeX
doesn't yet have an out-of-the-box working ConTeXt (you need to update
context first, but even then there are some problems with outdated
texmfcnf.lua file), but that was probably already evident from the
release date that is part of the name as we only got a properly
working ConTeXt today in the morning (tomorow morning follows another
no-so-critical fix).

Hi Mojca,

Sorry for not having stated the OS and machine on which I tried the MacTex 
package: yes I am on a Mac Intel Core 2 Duo, and Mac OS X 10.6.7.
Right now I don't have Tiger at hand, but maybe I can find one with a friend 
willing to try.

Regarding what you say about your experience of MacTex under Mac OS X 10.6.7, 
it is indeed weird that it doesn't work for me.
Would it be possible that unzipping with Zipeg (an application which I use for 
expanding zipped files) may explain the difference between your experience and 
mine?

Thanks again for your efforts for bringing ConTeXt in various flavors to the 
Mac community!

Best regards: OK

If the program is faulty or if there were problems with download
(incomplete download for example) and your program ignored that, yes.
But in general this is not very common. You can try md5sum
mactex20110529.mpkg.zip and try to unzip with something else.

I would say that it might be best to ask Richard Koch, the author of
MacTeX, but I'm not sure that he would be able to help either.

An alternative is to wait for the next version of MacTeX and see if
that one is going to work any better.
