[NTG-context] beta

2014-11-03 Thread Hans Hagen

Hi,

I reorganized some list code so if something fails in the new beta ... 
nothing drastic that can't be fixed fast (a few more criteria were 
needed for the new bibliographic support).

Thanks. Deleted.

There have been quite a few such pages created recently. Perhaps, our spam

[NTG-context] position of qed symbol in proofs

2014-11-03 Thread Mikael P. Sundqvist
Hi,

I once used

\defineenumeration[proof][
text=Proof,
closesymbol=\mathematics{\square},
closecommand=\ifmmode\eqno\else\wordright\fi,
]

\starttext
\startproof
This is a simple proof.
\stopproof

\startproof
This is another simple proof that ends with a formula
\startformula
1+1=2.
\stopformula
\stopproof
\stoptext

to get the \square at the end of proofs, and it worked out well. But
with the latest beta (and some previous one(s)), the \square is not
placed at the same line as the formula in the second example. Is it
broken? Or is there a new syntax?

PDF with my result is attached.

Best regards, Mikael

[NTG-context] mail merge in mkiv?

2014-11-03 Thread Pablo Rodriguez
Dear list,

I would like to be able to use ConTeXt at work for mail merging. The
issue here is that I don’t have any clue on how to do it with MKIV. I
don’t even know whehter this is possible at all.

BTW, searching for "merge" at the wiki, I found
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/An_Update_On_Essential_Elements_In_how_can_i_merge_google_plus_and_facebook,
which seems spam to me.

Is there any way to do mail merge with mkiv?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

Please do not forget the \startquotation\stopquotation.

I am citing the APA rules, not stating anything on how ConTeXt (or
TeX-Edit or anything else) sorts lists in general.

Brown precedes Browning because APA sorts on last names.
Singh precedes Singh Siddhu because "nothing precedes
something"( Siddhu)
López precedes López de Molina for precisely the same reason.
Ibn Abdulaziz precedes Ibn Nidal because Ibn is not to be taken into
account.
Laue, M. von precedes Röntgen, W. C, as well as Van der Waals, J. D. but
here things start to get tricky!

My point is that sorting lists of course depends on what you are
listing. Indexing author names, for example, needs to sort on last
names, then first names. Indexing on several levels needs to sort first
by the first level, then by the second level, ...

When indexing items containing several words, the sorting should go
word by word, thus
tipografía digital
before
tipografías

This amounts to making whitespace higher precedence than anything else,
which I believe was not the case but now is fixed.

Thank you very much Hans!

Maybe you could tell me why the following still produces a space in front
of the full stop:

\definetype[ctype][compact=absolute]
\starttext
\bTABLE
  \bTR \bTD \ctype{\test.txt} \eTD \eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext

Any feedback is welcome.

Christoph

or load l-os.lua, then the command os.resultof is available.

Hi Alan, 
This still puzzles me a bit. 
You write: “Brown, J. R., precedes Browning, A.R., even though i precedes j in 
the alphabet.” 
But isn’t that because “," precedes “i" ?
Likewise, when sorting these names (with TeX-Edit Plus), Singh Siddhu, N. comes 
out  before Singh, Y., not the reverse, precisely because, as you say, “nothing 
precedes something”, or the space between Singh and Siddhu precedes  the comma 
between Singh and Y.
Same with López de Molina, G. and López, M. E.

Or does ConTeXt, or TeX, have its own sorting order?

Best regards,
Robert Blackstone

We are talking about "traditional" overnight trains, not high-speed
trains. But it is indeed investment in high-speed trains that is
killing lower-cost, traditional rail.

I know, I tried seeing about getting there by train and concluded that
it was faster and cheaper to carpool with Taco, driving first to the
Netherlands!
