Look here (where the beginning of the path may be different on your
machine/OS):

C:\ConTeXt\tex\texmf-context\tex\context\base

If m-hemistich.mkiv is there, you have updated the distribution. If not,
you have not updated the distribution.

Another way: Look at a log file from any run and look at the date to
verify that you have updated. Here's mine:

ConTeXt  ver: 2013.08.26 16:41

If you have an older date, you need to update.

From what I understand from Hans's message, m-hemistich is part of the
ConTeXt distribution, so you just need to update your distribution to
install it (i.e., just run first-setup.bat)

it's an m- module

just try this:

context --global m-hemistich.mkiv

if that produces a file you should start your docs with

\usemodule[hemistich] % no m-

(using the command line to load modules is only needed for special cases)

[NTG-context] Arabic and Latin hemistiches

2013-08-29 Thread Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد


Dear gang,

Re: Arabic poetry thread:

Hans has just implemented high-level support for hemistiches and caesuras  
(using here the technical names for the style of poetry structure used in  
Arabic and other classical literature).


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemistich
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesura

With the latest beta, run the attached file. The module m-hemistich.mkiv  
also has a demo inside.


For Arabic, note the tatweel across columns (only manual for now). The  
separator option with \hemistiches is probably more useful for Latin and  
Greek classical literature etc where the separator occurs on every line;  
the \hemistichescaesura option is probably more useful for Arabic where  
there are only occasional connectors across columns.


Could one of you kindly add a page with this info to the wiki? Much thanks  
and enjoy!


Best wishes

Hi,

I am trying to pick up on an old thread of creating an overview page

relevant pages in a box, and then display them again at the end of the
presentation.

This works, except that I get a series of warnings:

Tricky. The problem is that you flush a box (copy) so the message comes
from deep inside the backend (for good reason) and so we cannot
intercept it as "hey user, you use the same dest twice" simply because
it's a copy and not re-rendered.

There are two solutions:

(1) strip the box before copying (i can make a helper for that - later
as i have to go now): destinations, references, writes-to-lists etc

(2) you copy the old file before processing and use that one

  \def\placeoverviewpage

Well, latexmk is also a perl script, so if you can run latexmk, you 
probably have perl installed. On a unix-like system, you can just download 
the script, copy it somewhere in your $PATH, make it executable (chmod +x 
filename), and just run `atchange filenme ...`.
