[NTG-context] Apostrophes not converting to typographical curly apostrophes
I'm having difficulty getting straight 0x0027 apostrophes to convert
into typographical single-quotes when using a given typescript.
In the following example, \quote{single quotes} generates curly
typographical single quotes, but the apostrophe comes out as a
straight apostrophe in the PDF output:
\usetypescriptfile[type-lemonde]
\usetypescript[lemonde-1]
\setupbodyfont[lemonde,ss,11pt]
\starttext
Why don't the apostrophes show up as \quotation{curly}? The
\quote{single quotes} and \quotation{double quotes} are fine\ldots{}
\stoptext
The only way I can generate curly apostrophes is by placing 0x2019
characters into the source. However, when I comment out those first
three lines, the output displays a curly apostrophe fine in the default
font. Am I doing something wrong with how I've set up my typescript?
~/texmf/tex/context/user/type-lemonde.tex looks like this:
\starttypescript [serif] [lemonde]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Roman] [name:lemondelivrenormalosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Bold] [name:lemondelivreboldosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Italic] [name:lemondelivreitalicosf]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [LeMondeLivre-Roman]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [LeMondeLivre-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [LeMondeLivre-Italic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [sans] [lemonde]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Roman] [name:lemondesansnormalosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Bold][name:lemondesansboldosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Italic] [name:lemondesansitalicosf]
\definefontsynonym [Sans][LeMondeSans-Roman]
\definefontsynonym [SansBold][LeMondeSans-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [LeMondeSans-Italic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [lemonde-1]
\definetypeface [lemonde] [rm] [serif][lemonde]
\definetypeface [lemonde] [ss] [sans] [lemonde]
\stoptypescript
This is using MkIV, recently updated minimals.
Thanks for any help,
John

[NTG-context] xml manual typo
I am reporting a typo in the MKIV XML-manual. It can put one on the wrong track.
Section 3.7 Setups:
\xmlsetup{name}{node} expands setup name and pass node as argument
Note that name and node in the parameters are interchanged.
It should read:
\xmlsetup{node}{name} expands setup name and pass node as argument

fyi:
In mkiv the principle is the same but it's a bit more more dynamic:
\namespaceinstance:key
with namespace being efficiently shortcut deep down in context. The new
fashion is then \namespaceparameter{key} given that
\currentnamespace == instance is set. This is the new commandhandler
approach that we use in overhauled core code as well as in Wolfgangs and
Adityas modules. The dynamic approach is somewhat slower but it's
compensated by way less hash entries and other speedups in the overhaul.

Fair enough. I got it to work now with,
\startitemize[R,2*broad][start=11,before=\startlinecorrection,after=
\stoplinecorrection]
My only concern here is that, for something as incredibly fundamental
and recurring in the world of ConTeXt, the caveats and distinctions to
be made between options and assignments, that can and have taken down
entire operating systems, or cause hour after hour of no end of vague
syntactical errors, or even successful compilations with the wrong
effects, shouldn't that probably have been mentioned at least once, even
if only in passing, somewhere within the 369 page user manual? The word
assignment I couldn't locate once.
You’re right, it can cause confusion to people migrating from
Latex where package options, afair, allows mixed key-value/list
syntax (like e.g. Lua does as well). Random example from the
KOMA-Script manual:
\documentclass[BCOR=12mm,DIV=calc,twoside]{scrartcl}
^ ^^^
assignment … switch
Therefore the difference to Context deserves mention at least
somewhere in
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/From_LaTeX_to_ConTeXt
which said migrators are most likely to consult first.
- Maybe it could be more explicit, but if you ever take a look at
documentation, for example
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupitemgroup
you will notice that some brackets are depicted with [...,...] and
others with [...,...=...,...]
And while we are handing out reading assignments (pun intended)
here are two wiki links that provide background information:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/System_Macros/Comma_Separated_Lists
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/System_Macros/Key_Value_Assignments
Perhaps it makes most sense to think of Comma Lists v. Assignment
Lists in terms of the two different argument parsers being used
to process them.

Philipp

[NTG-context] simple graphics, Metafun vs. ConTeXt
I have leaved through the ConTeXt and MetaFun manuals on the search for examples of graphics resembling the attached file which I created in TikZ. I was wanting to switch to something more native to ConTeXt, but haven't quite found a way of realising it in ConTeXt or MetaFun. Maybe someone would be so kind as to point me to the right section in the manual. All I want is to define text boxes (of a fixed size) to fill them with a background colour and (centred, typeset) text. Do I need MetaFun for that, or should some table/framed text environment in ConTeXt be able to do that?

You can use a table as seen in the example below but when you have many

all fields with the information.

[NTG-context] TABLE with split=repeat and headings
Hello,
I have several natural tables with the split=repeat option set. Those
tables are directly after a subsubsubject. Every now and then it
happens, that the heading stays on the previous page (as last line)
and the table slips to the next page.
Without split=repeat it correctly takes the header to the next page
too. Can I consider this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
The attached example demonstrates this problem.

Yes, can be, but LuaTex has it's memory manager that should manage

Re: [NTG-context] simple graphics, Metafun vs. ConTeXt

Maybe someone would be so kind as to point me to the right section in the manual. All I want is to define text boxes (of a fixed size) to fill them with a background colour and (centred, typeset) text. Do I need MetaFun for that, or should some table/framed text environment in ConTeXt be able to do that? this can be done with \bTABLE .. \eTABLE - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 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 ___
Re: [NTG-context] Apostrophes not converting to typographical curly apostrophes

I'm having difficulty getting straight 0x0027 apostrophes to convert
into typographical single-quotes when using a given typescript.
In the following example, \quote{single quotes} generates curly
typographical single quotes, but the apostrophe comes out as a
straight apostrophe in the PDF output:
\usetypescriptfile[type-lemonde]
\usetypescript[lemonde-1]
\setupbodyfont[lemonde,ss,11pt]
\starttext
Why don't the apostrophes show up as \quotation{curly}? The
\quote{single quotes} and \quotation{double quotes} are fine\ldots{}
\stoptext
The only way I can generate curly apostrophes is by placing 0x2019
characters into the source. However, when I comment out those first
three lines, the output displays a curly apostrophe fine in the default
font. Am I doing something wrong with how I've set up my typescript?
~/texmf/tex/context/user/type-lemonde.tex looks like this:
\starttypescript [serif] [lemonde]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Roman] [name:lemondelivrenormalosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Bold] [name:lemondelivreboldosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeLivre-Italic] [name:lemondelivreitalicosf]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [LeMondeLivre-Roman]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [LeMondeLivre-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [LeMondeLivre-Italic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [sans] [lemonde]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Roman] [name:lemondesansnormalosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Bold][name:lemondesansboldosf]
\definefontsynonym [LeMondeSans-Italic] [name:lemondesansitalicosf]
\definefontsynonym [Sans][LeMondeSans-Roman]
\definefontsynonym [SansBold][LeMondeSans-Bold]
\definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [LeMondeSans-Italic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [lemonde-1]
\definetypeface [lemonde] [rm] [serif][lemonde]
\definetypeface [lemonde] [ss] [sans] [lemonde]
\stoptypescript
This is using MkIV, recently updated minimals.
search the wiki for 'features' ... you need to tell context what
features to use for an opentype font
btw, the quote remapping is a old-time tex thing and should be avoided
by either using proper unicodes or by using \quote and \quotation

Thanks Philipp. I'm finding that one of the big weaknesses of ConTeXt is
similar to a common criticism of the first one listed on Git here:
https://steveko.wordpress.com/2012/02/24/10-things-i-hate-about-git/
It requires users to know too much about how ConTeXt actually works
internally (e.g. its information model). Maybe this is necessary. Maybe
it isn't. I'm fairly new to typesetting and never came from a background
of decades of experience with TeX. But it seems to me like any
programming language, and ConTeXt is a kind of one for document
engineering, should have users focusing on creating beautiful books and
not on the language's information and processing model.
Just my two cents.

[NTG-context] Itemized List Definitions
Hi, Thank you for all your help so far. I do have another question, though. I would like to define different styles for different types of itemized lists. I have defined: % Setup itemised lists \setupitemize[1][packed][symbol=1] \setupitemize[2][packed][symbol=2] for one type and I would like to setup another type where the symbols and the indentation are different. Is there a mechanism for that? Something along the line of \setupitemizedlist[typeA][...] \setupitemizedlist[typeB][...] similar to \definedelimitedtext for example?
