Thanks for the suggestions Richard and Mikael.
For the benefit of the list I went with the following quick'n'dirty™ approach
which will be good enough:
\def\index{\dosingleempty\debugIndex}
\def\debugIndex[#1]#2{%
\iffirstargument
\null% Ignore it for now
\else
\inmargin[color=blue,stack=yes,style=ssxx]{#2}%
\fi
}
\def\startregister{\dotripleempty\debugStartRegister}
\def\debugStartRegister[#1][#2][#3]#4{%
\inmargin[color=darkgreen,stack=yes,style=ssxx]{↓ #2}%
}
\def\stopregister[#1][#2]{\inmargin[color=darkred,stack=yes,style=ssxx]{↑ #2}}

Re: [NTG-context] zint module on LMTX
Hi Michal and Hans, My LuaMetaTeX version (and ConTeXt LMTX...) was from 18.04.2022. That was the reason... As soon as I installed the fresh version, it started working properly, even with my library build. So next time before writing to list, I'll do the update and check first ;) That is a native Windows build using cmake in VS 2019. Hans, you can pass option to cmake and build zint without libpng like Michal's version... Mine has is, but it doesn't work :-) But I will certainly use your and Hans' recommendation of cross-compiling in wsl. Much less headache... Thanks for all the tips!

IIRC older versions may not support -S for source directory and -B for build directory so something like you had can be used: mkdir build cd build cmake -DZINT_USE_PNG=OFF -DZINT_USE_QT=OFF .. The ZINT_USE_PNG cmake option decides whether to pass -DNO_PNG to the compiler. In my repository I don't use zint's cmake at all, and compile the files manually (though also with cmake), and I set NO_PNG unconditionally: https://github.com/vlasakm/context-optional-libraries/blob/12085e89688332d2d672471ea47ef9a2c066a14f/CMakeLists.txt#L58 On Sun Sep 4, 2022 at 1:43 PM CEST, Hans Hagen via ntg-context wrote: > For some reason i get > > CMake Error: Unknown argument --toolchain > For older versions following should work: -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cross-windows.cmake instead of the newer: --toolchain cross-windows.cmake Michal ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : https://contextgarden.net ___

Hi Hans,
here is the example that I used, basically I took it from the from the

\blank
\barcode[alternative=pdf417,text={Ton Otten}]%

\barcode[alternative=qr code,text={This is ConTeXt LMTX}]
\barcode[alternative=qr code,text={\input{tufte}},width=3cm]
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
The resulting PDF has just empty page
bah, there used to be precompiled x64 files for windows so one cpuld
just drop in the dll (kind of strange to stick to 32 bit as most windows
installations today are 64 bit)
although i don't like top do it i cloned the zint repos and tried to
compile (after migrating the proj file to vs2022) but it fails on some
png.h file missing and i see no way to disable png)
a pitty as zint used to be quite stable over years (at some point we
will set up compilation on the farm and then we can stick to old stable
versions forever)
anyway, so instead of trying that i went for a quick and dirty cross
compile on wls
# mingw-64.cmake
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Windows)
set(TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX x86_64-w64-mingw32)
set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER ${TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX}-gcc)
and on build then run
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../mingw-64.cmake ..
make
which gives me a huge dll that we can strip to some 600+K and that one
seems to load ok
it assume of course that you have the linus subsystem installwd with gcc
and the crosscompiler (which i have as it is how i compile luametatex)

First, try without the \startTEXpage / \stopTEXpage, so you don't have
empty first page.
Now, as mentioned, the library loads correctly, but luametatex can't
read the binary structures passed in memory by zint. This can be due to
ABI mismatch for different versions. This was already discussed and
since then also solved by option 3 from
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg102152.html
So already for a while ConTeXt explicitly supports zint 2.10 and 2.11,
while explicitly not supporting anything older. Newer may work, but that
remains to be seen with the 2.12 release (2.11.x should still be
compatible). In particular the development version 2.11.1.9 doesn't seem
to break anything.
Are you sure you are using the right ConTeXt LMTX and zint versions?
I just tested with fresh ConTeXt LMTX install in a Windows virtual
machine and with my build of zint (2.11.1):
https://github.com/vlasakm/context-optional-libraries/releases/download/v20220904/libzint.dll
and it works as expected.
You can also try to build the libraries yourself from the repository:
https://github.com/vlasakm/context-optional-libraries
The aspiration was that this repository would pin the "known to work
versions" of optional libraries and prepare build instructions for them.
But it is now largely untested. I can only say that zint works, as I
haven't tried others in a while. On the other hand from what I know
zint is the only fragile one, other optionals are much more less likely
to break.

Re: [NTG-context] Quick way to proofread / check index entries?
Bruce,
Did something of the sort a while back: redefined the index command to
something short, in capitals; then adjusted the syntax highlighting to pick up
the code. This was for emacs + auctex, so it was just a case of adjusting one
of the stock auctex files. I think Scite may let one do something similar.

My own fault for not thinking head :-) but I have a largeish text with a lot of
\index{...} entries. To make life easier for the proofreader I would like to
temporarily redefine \index to wrap it or replace it with something that will
highlight indexed items in the text where they occur, e.g. change their colour.
I could do this with a global find and replace (across many files) to replace
\index with \MyIndex, say, and then define a \MyIndex that understands the
various parameter options but this is a hassle. Before I do this, is there
anything already pre-built?
The ultimate aim is to enable a proofreader to see each indexed term where it
appears in order to judge whether the term deserves to be in the index at all.
(Working backwards from the index itself is possible but clicking a page
number, trying to find the term on the page, then reading the context to make a
decision is quite hard work - much easier to read through and deal with the
terms as they appear.)
