That's good to know.  I'll try it out.

If the module is
tex/texmf-context/tex/context/modules/mkiv/m-database.mkiv, I think this
is only intended for typesetting the database contents.

handlecsv enables document merging. With the first (stupid) sample that
comes to my mind:

\starttext
\startbuffer
\Name\ has completed the course {\em\Course}, achieving the
following grade: \Grade.\page
\stopbuffer
\doloopforall{\getbuffer}
\stoptext

Having to do that with before and after options would be a pain (in my
opinion).

You may page through
https://github.com/ousia/handlecsv/blob/context-suite/doc/context/third/handlecsv/handlecsv.pdf
to see the features.

I wonder whether it makes sense to extend the built-in module by Hans.
If this wasn’t needed before, it may be not needed now. And Hans’ time
is most precious to devote to other issues ;-).

BTW, handlecsv is coded by Jaroslav Hajtmar. I only release the module
to the public.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

I checked it with sha256sum ;-).

I always use contextjit instead of context, because it’s faster.

Other than speed, I think there is no other difference.

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV#Experimental_speedup which
says that the jit flag leads to quicker processing of the source.

Thank you. I believe we would need to have it accessible as an
extracted folder called t-handlecvs under

https://modules.contextgarden.net/dl/

Taco should probably figure out how to fix that.

It would be helpful to figure out what exactly is missing in the
built-in module written by Hans. Maybe that module could be upgraded
as well?

It would be helpful if Taco could fix another issue, see above.

Re: [NTG-context] problems with XML export

Hi Hraban,

this works with PDF, it should work with ePub:

  \definehighlight[read][color=red, style=\sc]
  \starttext
  \starthighlight[read] rot\stophighlight
  \stoptext

I guess you have to use this instead of \color[]{}.

Without minimal sample and invocation command, it is rather hard to
reproduce the issue.

Just out of curiosity, I wonder how this could be achieved.

Do you have other approach than the following?

1. Complete PDF compilation with saving of page breaks.

2. Add the markers in XML code generation.

Try the approach proposed above. I think it should work.

I hope it helps,

[NTG-context] problems with XML export

2017-11-11 Thread Henning Hraban Ramm 
Here are a few problems that I encountered in my current ePub projects:

* \color[]{} leaves no trace in export.

* As soon as I activate export, my PDFs get two pages more, i.e. page breaking 
changes somehow, I didn’t yet track how.

* For quotability, I’d like to set markers in my HTML, where the print version 
has page breaks. But the exported XML doesn’t contain anything like that. Is it 
possible to add?

* Some spacing like \, gets lost. I’m sure there’s an appropriate Unicode 
glyph. Would it be possible to add that?

* Errors in exported XML:

(1)

Brecht, Bertolt
53,–,88
   

Here we have a register entry with (only) a page range. There should be no 
 (it’s unneccessarily complicated to filter that out if 
there’s also a ).
I.e. text content has ",–," instead of just "–".

(2)
\def\SC#1{\dostarttagged{highlight}{scaps}{\sc\lowercase{#1}}\dostoptagged}

\starttabulate[|lw(1cm)|p|]
\NC AFG\NC \SC{SED}, Akademie für Gesellschaftswissenschaften, 
Schriftenverzeichnis\NC\NR
\NC BER\crlf\color[white]{dummy}\NC Hochschule der Deutschen Gewerkschaften 
\quotation{Fritz Heckert} in Bernau, Schriftenverzeichnis\NC\NR
\stoptabulate

leads to


 
  AFG
  
sed, Akademie für 
Gesellschaftswissenschaften, Schriftenverzeichnis 

 
  BERdummy
   Hochschule der Deutschen Gewerkschaften »Fritz 
Heckert« in Bernau, 
Schriftenverzeichnis
 


-  is nonsense
-  breaks  (maybe my \SC definition is bad, but nobody 
answered to my according question)

Hi Raghu,

"contextjit  --nodates" is your friend here.

No \pdf* commands are required.

I hope it helps,
