Hello, On Fri, 14 Jun 2013 07:19:44 +0200, Malte Stien ma...@stien.de wrote: Hello Everyone, I have been using ConTeXt for over a year now and worked out how to do most things I need to do. Every now and then, though, I need to do something that I cannot find any information about and in most cases I post a question here on the forum. I have received great help here over the months and like to thank everyone who took the time to answer my questions. The other day, however, I had a problem, posted a message here, got an answer and the answer did not quite work; I went back to the forum, got more help... In the process I realised that I should have been able to work this out myself; I was not even able to tweak the first answer and make it work. I am an IT engineer myself, but with little time (I guess I am not unique here) and even less experience in TeX. I guess what I am saying is, that I would like to gain a much deeper understanding of ConTeXt which will allow me to program in ConTeXt rather than just using the documented command. To gather information about ConTeXt I have - read the ConTeXt Reference Manual (http://pmrb.free.fr/contextref.pdf) - bought a couple of the published books by Hans Hagen - started reading the TeX book by Donald Knuth this is a normal approach - questioning, searching for answers... It's the same for ConTeXt as for LaTeX. Personally, I started with Ltx and migrated to Ctx some years ago. Big advantages of Ctx are: - This forum is very alive, almost all questions are answered in short time. - Ctx document is much more customizable by standard Ctx commands, i.e. - compared with Ltx - you don't need to go in the Ltx source and investigate how to do this-or-that. Ltx seems to me a bit rigid - it's not so easy to change style of heads, special paragraphs, enumerations, ... - Ctx is still developed; AFAIK Ltx ver. 3.? is being prepared/issued several (- at least 5 -) years. - Ctx: Some features - if they seem useful - may be implemented on-demand, so they may be ready to use with a next beta (thanks mainly Hans; as well as Wolfgand, Aditya...). - Although Ctx wiki is not best manual one could imagine, (pros:) it is still maintained and developed (cons: some info may be obsolete, some articles may be written in old-style fashion...) - Ltx: I don't know how far Ltx is bound with Lua and how this relation is documented; I guess poorly. As Ctx is concerned, many (almost all?) things of TeX/Ctx core may be accessible/hookable by Lua - this is a great feature; and IMHO: as if you are normal programmer, programming by Lua should be much more quicker for you than doing things by TeX macro language. So, my personal advice would be - try to stay with Ctx, I believe after some initial problems/obstacles you'll be becoming master and Ctx will become a good slave.

Essentially, TEXpage is a fancy \frame (which, in turn, is a fancy \vbox).
So, you cannot get the regular footnote mechanism inside TEXpage. If you
do need footnotes, you can use localfootnotes:
\starttext
\startTEXpage[width=0.6\textwidth, offset=3mm]
\startlocalfootnotes
Knuth:\footnote{The creator of \TEX}

[NTG-context] MOving from MkII to MkIV / EPUB
Hello folks,
I have a ConTeXt Project for a small and simple book, that has the 'basic
example' project structure with .../images, .../chapters, .../products etc. I
use a Makefile to comppile the book when in the .../chapters directory, as
attached below. I use texexec --pdf and probably ConTeXt MkII from the MacTeX
2012 distribution.
I'd like to make an EPUB from this book as well. I suspect that means going
over to LuaTeX/MkIV and doing extra stuff. I got lost in the ConTeXt
documentation (for as much as there is, old and new) and would appreciate an
instruction on how to do this that does not suppose I am a ConTeXt wizard who
is doing stuff like this daily. Is there such a thing?

If a simple modification in first-setup.sh and setuptex can do the job, feel free to suggest the change (platform detection). My changes were simple - I used the setuptex file that came with standalone, and tweaked it ever so slightly. https://gist.github.com/gatesphere/0afaf5c2c647430ff653 So basically all you did was replacing platform detection with platform=mswin and commented out three lines of code that notify about the change? (Did you just find those lines annoying or did they actually fail to work?) I just found them annoying - precisely because they worked :p Just curious: what does uname -s uname -m return on cygwin or what is the best way to detect windows in shell? (I believe that should be easy enough.) $ uname -s; uname -m; uname -o CYGWIN_NT-5.1 i686 Cygwin You could test if `uname -s` starts with CYGWIN, or if `uname -o` equals Cygwin... another way is to check $OSTYPE: $ echo $OSTYPE cygwin Save that as .setuptex in ~ (home directory) then add the line source /home/PeckJ/.setuptex /cygdrive/c/context/tex to .bashrc, and you should be good to go. In that case I would use export PATH=/cygdrive/c/context/tex/texm-mswin/bin:$PATH instead, but of course it's your choice. Is that all the script does? I've never read it completely, just tweaked it until it worked. Ah well, my setup works just fine :) --Jake Mojca ___ 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 ___
[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Float placement
I'm trying to typeset a book. It has two columns, and some floating
diagrams. My problem is that the floats aren't going where I want
them to and I can't work out how to fix it. My input source looks
something like:
\startcolumnset[foo]
\subject{Blah}
\placefigure[here]{First diagram}
{\externalfigure[diagram1.jpg][width=2.3in]}
\placefigure[here]{Second diagram}
{\externalfigure[diagram2.jpg][width=2.3in]}
\placefigure[here]{Third diagram}
{\externalfigure[diagram3.jpg][width=2.3in]}
What I expect to get out is a page something like this (excuse the
ASCII graphics):
+-+
| |
| Blah |
| |
| |
| |
| +--+ |
| | | |
| | | |
| +--+ | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| +--+ | | |
| First diagram | | |

| Third diagram |

| +--+ |
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |

| Second diagram|

What I'm actually getting out is this:
+-+
| |
| Blah +--+ |

| Second diagram |

| Third diagram |

Even though there is sufficient space in the first
column, the second float is always being moved up
to the top of the second column. I've tried pretty
much every combination of here, force and always
as the location keyword for the \placefloat, but
it doesn't make any difference.
Any idea what I can do to get the placement I
want? The deadline for going to press is rapidly
approaching and I'm getting a little concerned!
Thanks,
Tet
