Re: [NTG-context] minimals
It is indeed somewhat complicated. Changes are needed in first-setup.sh as well as in mtx-update.lua. To complicate matters, one of the first things that happens in first-setup.sh is to retrieve a fresh and unaltered mtx-update.lua. My naïve recipe follows: 1. change contextgarden.net to metatex.org on line 99 of first-setup.sh 2. run once, which fails, but updates mtx-update.lua 3. comment out line 99 of first-setup.sh, to prevent further updates of scripts 4. change line 534 of mtx-update.lua to contain metatex.org instead of contextgarden.net run first-update.sh again, this time hopfully with success. May I suggest that the version of mtx-update.lua that can be retrieved from metatex.org contains references to that server and not contextgarden.net. I realize that then it is no longer a mirror, but on the other hand it may be useful when contextgarden is down.

[NTG-context] Removing banner from mtxrun output
Greetings all! In the modernized version of the R module (attached), which makes it possible to interact with the statistical programming environment R (http://www.r-project.org), mtxrun is used to call R on saved buffers containing snippets of R code. Optionally, the output from R can be included using \typefile. However, mtxrun includes a banner in the output file, example below. MTXrun | MTXrun | executing: R -q --save --restore MTXrun | MTXrun | sample(1:10) [1] 5 3 1 9 2 6 10 8 4 7 sample(1:10, replace=TRUE) [1] 1 10 7 1 7 5 2 2 10 5 If the results of the computations are to be included in the text, this banner is ugly and distracting. Question: is it possible to instruct mtxrun not to make such a banner? Or, alternatively, is there an easy way to remove it before the text is included? I am using MKIV exclusively.

[NTG-context] sorted data in mkiv
I am writing a booklet for use by junior doctors at the hospital where I work. It will contain random bits of data that is available from various online sources such as phone numbers, dosages of exotic drugs, referral routes and assorted things better written down than remembered. Much of it is in tabular form, and I have so far used natural tables. It is intended to be extremely compact so I make many adjustments to save space, such as using multiple columns where appropriate. Some of the things listed would benefit from being sorted such as phone numbers, but I would still like it to be presented in a table (with the added complication that the table will have two columns of names}. Using pseudocode I would like it to work like this: \phone{person c}{54321, 12345} \phone{clinic a}{12345, 54321} \phone{clinic c}{54321, 12345} \phone{person b}{12345} \phone{clinic b}{12345} \phone{person a}{12345} This should automatically be converted to \bTABLE \bTR\bTD person a\eTD\bTD 12345\eTD\bTD clinic a\eTD\bTD 12345, 54321\eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD person b\eTD\bTD 12345\eTD\bTD clinic b\eTD\bTD 12345\eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD person c\eTD\bTD 54321, 12345\eTD\bTD clinic c\eTD\bTD 54321, 12345\eTD\eTR \eTABLE presumably using something like 1. name and number added to a register 2. register is sorted on first field 3. t = total number of entries in register 4. l = number of lines in table, calculated as l=t\2 + t mod 2 3. create a table with l lines where each line has \bTR\bTD name(i) \eTD\bTD phone(i)\eTD\bTD name(i+l)\eTD\bTD phone(i+l)\eTR It would not surprise me if this is implemented somewhere in ConTeXt but I have been unable to find it.

[NTG-context] modernized and augmented m-r.tex
The ConTeXt module for interaction with the statistical programming language R currently does not work with MKIV since buffers are not saved to file. The included file fixes this by calling \savebuffer on the buffer in case \ctxlua is defined (a trick gleaned from a discussion on the LilyPond module a while back). Also, all calls to R used to include a rather annoying proc.time() statement at the end, and a modified R call has fixed this. PATH must contain R or R.exe on Windoze. Should 'texmfstart' still be used for the R calls? A third modification involves being able to call \startRnoecho (which only echoes R output in the ConTeXt file) in addition to \startR (which echoes both input and output) and \startRhidden (which echoes nothing, useful for generating graphics) One further improvement would be to collect the R snippets and run them all at once. That would significantly reduce processing time since the R startup is on the order of a few seconds. However, that is beyond my knowledge of ConTeXt.

More philosophical question than a question of implementation.

If you want several ls() statements that print out something: how are you going to know which output belongs to which script?

[NTG-context] lua problem with Windows Vista
Hi, after acquiring a Thinkpad X61 I have takon on the ordeal of learning to use Windows Vista. I have turned off User Account Control and installed cygwin. In order to install context I tried several ways without success: the ContextMinimalInstaller.exe failed by silently not downloading any files the minimals installer failed with rsync complaining when it was unable to create several directories. first-setup.bat ran without error if I manually created those directories but turned out not to have populated the file system when done In the end I unzipped justtex.zip and mswintex.zip and manually updated relevant parts of that tree with rsync from rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals MkII seems to work after this but when I run luatools --generate luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-en I get the output below which looks like a lua error. luatex version is snapshot-0.22.0-2008021623. I do not know enough about lua to track this error down. I am hoping someone knows what to do. Perhaps there is even someone who can tell me an easier way to install context on vista.

Re: [NTG-context] [OT] dblatex
2007/5/30, luigi scarso [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Not really stopped, rather dormant. The main reasons are: - Context moves so much, and my system is so screwed up, that I cannot update to a recent context release. - There are very few users interested by dbcontext and then few bug reports or update demands. - There are some big fishes asking for latex solutions (gimp, kde docs). - Few users are ready to switch from latex to context, at least because of install troubles and dependencies. - I can hardly convince people to use context if the context version suggested in the release note is not available from context site (it was before the foundry museum). I still think context overclasses latex, but its systematic refactoring and use of emergent/latest software have their drawbacks, for end users, but for tools depending on it too. But I believe that with the new context versioning scheme, the debian and Peter Munster packaging efforts, it can become more popular. Of course, I need to update my machine too ;-) Thank you very much. -- luigi 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 : https://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 : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___ -- Johan Sandblom, MD PhD N8, MRC, Karolinska sjh t +46851776108 17176 Stockholm m +46735521477 Sweden What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite - Bertrand Russell ___ 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 : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] including pdf and using the entire page
In my document I want to include a few published pdf files. I have accomplished this with \chapter{File 1} \copypages[file1.pdf][scale=800] % 20 pages \chapter{File 2} \copypages[file1.pdf][scale=650] % 16 pages However, the included pages obey the layout of the rest of the document, and even if the paper in my document could allow a larger scale, I cannot use it since some part of the included file falls off the page.

See below. I have tried several versions including using makeup (but that is only one page?), pagefigure (also only one page at a time). Basically you need to find out the number of pages of the file and then recursively include them one by one. Recently, I wanted to print a collection of papers as a single pdf, with its own table of contents etc. The trouble was that some of the papers were printed on A4 paper and some were on letter paper. So, I modified the copypages macro to suit my needs. There is very little configuration options for the macro, it behaves the way I wanted it to.

Perhaps I will reveal my own fundamental confusion about bibtex but: What about letting bibtex (the C program) do the miserable work of alphabetic sorting? Then ConTeXt could typeset (the necessary subset of) bib items in that order. That functionality is there already \setupbibtex[sort=author] Ah, that is exactly what I wanted. I misunderstood \setuppublications[sorttype=bib]. I thought that it will sort according to the bib file, when it actually sorts according to the bbl file.

Re: [NTG-context] split natural table over columns
Good point, in the actual case there were two columns, a name and a number. The reason for using the table is align the name to the left and the number to the right. So a more realistic example is something like \starttext \bTABLE \setupTABLE[c][1][align=right] \setupTABLE[c][2][align=left] \dorecurse{10}{ \bTR\bTD foo\eTD\bTD 123\eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD b \eTD\bTD 123456\eTD\eTR} \eTABLE \stoptext Thank you for your interest.

Re: [NTG-context] slightly OT: presentation tool
Looks amazing. Looking at the license it appears in fact to be free as in speech (distributed under GPL 2 or later), which of course only makes it more attractive! Johan 2006/7/12, Thomas A. Schmitz [EMAIL PROTECTED]: As the subject line says, this is slightly OT, but it may be of interest to some. If you produce your presentations in ConTeXt and want to show the resulting pdf, you have to use a pdf-viewer. I just hate Adobe Reader with its bloat and its intrusiveness; other solutions (such as evince and xpdf on linux) had smaller problems as well. I have recently found a relatively small python solution that i like a lot; I hasten to add that I'm in no way affiliated with the developers; I just have installed it and use it a lot. It's called keyjnote; it's free (as in beer), and it offers a lot of nice eye-candy during presentations of pdf-files such as nice transitions, a sorted view that shows all slides in one window and lets you choose one, and the possibility to highlight parts of the screen with your mouse pointer. There are some disadvantages: it has a lot of pythonish dependencies (on OS X, I could install them via darwinports, but it's a lot more difficult on most linux distros), it needs opengl support, and a reasonably fast machine. But it costs nothing to just have a look at it: http://keyjnote.sourceforge.net/ And I find that it makes presentations done in ConTeXt look even better!

[NTG-context] Writing a ConTeXt module for R
Since I sometimes use the open-source statistics environment R (http://www.r-project.org) as well as ConTeXt, I thought a module that could typeset R code as well as evaluate it on the fly would be useful. Borrowing largely without understanding but lots of trial and eror from m-gnustep.tex, I came up with the attached. Limited testing indicates it works, but at least one problem is apparent: the R code snippets have one unnecessary line break to start them and two after the end. How can I fix that?

I used variants for a decade with the old tex mode, but just rewrote it for auctex and for context's display math syntax (which deprecates $$...$$). The purpose: 1. If you type {, [, or (, the appropriate right delimiter is inserted for you and the insertion point is placed between them. So I never get unbalanced XYZ errors. If you think it's a misfeature, delete the last three local-set-key's in the TeX-mode-hook. 2. Same feature if you type $ for inline math: you get $insertion point here$. The old tex-mode code would do the same on typing a second $, so you'd get $$insertion point here$$ for tex's display math. The code below will also do that, except in context mode. 3. In context mode, typing the second $ will gobble up preceding whitespace and then insert \placeformula\startformula place insertion point here \stopformula The whitespace-deletion code in start-context-math is a bit pathetic and any improvements are welcome. I couldn't get re-search-backward to work for me because it wouldn't match greedily (so it would gobble up one space but not all of them, for example), so instead it just looks one character at a time and deletes what it should. -Sanjoy (defun insert-balanced (left right) Make a left, right delmiter pair and be poised to type inside of them.

Re: [NTG-context] emacs lisp for context in AucTeX
Strange that I did not run into these issues, I use GNU emacs as well, version 22.0.50.1, so presumably a difference in the versions. C-c C-f is not bound to TeX-font for me, which is odd. Sorry about the cell/cells issue, I renamed the function just before sending it. Of course it is ok to put it on the wiki (and thank you for doing that), the code can be used and altered entirely according to anyone's taste. Johan 2006/4/20, Sanjoy Mahajan [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Great. Mojca suggested that I wikify my Emacs lisp. It's now at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Text_editor. Following that method ('a method is a trick I use twice.' --Polya), I've put your elisp there too -- hope that's okay. I removed the (local-set-key $ 'start-context-math) so that your code can stand alone (in case people want one or the other). I had to change a few things at the end (some maybe because I'm using GNU Emacs rather than XEmacs, not sure). Below is the diff and I've attached the resulting version. Most of the trouble was in the keybindings: (local-set-key \C-c\C-fc 'context-insert-FLOW-cells) doesn't work because C-c C-f is already defined as TeX-font, so it can't be a prefix as well. So I chose \C-cnF. Also the function name needed an s at the end. These two: (local-set-key \C-cnn 'context-insert-nattab) (local-set-key \C-cnr 'context-insert-nattab-row) have a related problem, in that \C-cn is not a prefix yet, so \C-cnn and \C-cnr are not valid sequences. So I changed the first use of \C-cn as a prefix to use define-key(), which seems to make a prefix-map automatically as I eventually learnt by inspecting tex.el. So: (define-key (current-local-map) \C-cnF 'context-insert-FLOW-cells) Then the following local-set-key's work. As I say, this is on Emacs 21.4, and the tricks may be different on XEmacs. -Sanjoy --- a/tables.el 2006-04-20 10:46:16.0 -0400 +++ b/tables.el 2006-04-20 10:43:41.0 -0400 @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ (defun context-insert-nattab (rows columns) - ;; Johan Sandblom 060128 + ;; Johan Sandblom 2006-01-28 Insert a TABLE skeleton (interactive nNumber of rows: \nnNumber of columns: \n) (newline) @@ -44,8 +44,8 @@ (newline) (backward-char 5)) -(defun context-insert-FLOW-cell (n) - ;; Johan Sandblom 060128 +(defun context-insert-FLOW-cells (n) + ;; Johan Sandblom 2006-01-28 Insert a FLOWchart cell (interactive nNumber of cells: \n) (newline) @@ -62,8 +62,7 @@ (add-hook 'ConTeXt-mode-hook '(lambda () - (local-set-key \C-c\C-fc 'context-insert-FLOW-cells) + (define-key (current-local-map) \C-cnF 'context-insert-FLOW-cells) (local-set-key \C-cnr 'context-insert-nattab-row) (local-set-key \C-cnc 'context-insert-nattab-column) - (local-set-key \C-cnn 'context-insert-nattab) -(local-set-key $ 'start-context-math))) + (local-set-key \C-cnn 'context-insert-nattab))) -- Johan Sandblom N8, MRC, Karolinska sjh t +46851776108 17176 Stockholm m +46735521477 Sweden What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite - Bertrand Russell ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] no 'D' in math-eul.tex
In May I discovered that there was a typo in math-eul.tex rendering the lower-case 'd' an 'e'. Amazingly, the same problem occurs also for the upper-case 'D', and requires changing the line \definemathcharacter [D] [nothing] [mr] [45] into \definemathcharacter [D] [nothing] [mr] [44] Apparently this beautiful font is severely underused to allow this typo to survive!

Re: [NTG-context] \totalnumberofpages and \setuparranging [2UP]
Could it be that texexec needs to be run with texexec --arrange Johan 2005/12/15, Tobias Burnus [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi, John Magolske wrote: I'm having trouble getting \totalnumberofpages to display while using \setuparranging [2UP]. In order to get \totalnumberofpages (or \lastpage), the following happens: - First TeX run - produces file.tui - TeXutil - convert file.tui into file.tuo - Second TeX run - reads file.tuo The file.tuo file contains the needed information. (texexec calls texutil automatically and reruns if needed) If you \setuparranging [2UP], the file.tui contains these extra lines: c \utilitygenerationaborted q {quit} which prevents TeXutil from creating the needed information. Why this is done that way, we have to wait for Hans to answer. Workaround: Run TeX once (texexec ), remove the two lines, run texutil --ref file and run TeX again (texexec ...)

[NTG-context] modes in newtexexec

Re: [NTG-context] GNU Emacs/ AucTeX configuration for ConTeXt
2005/12/2, Renaud AUBIN [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi all, Is there someone using GNU Emacs with ConTeXt. After some googlelyzing, I've learnt : 1. ConTeXt mode from Berend de Boer is now included in AucTeX 2. Some people use Emacs with ConTeXt and METAPOST, but with special .el files that seems not really up-to-date I didn't found usefull information to configure properly AucTeX in order to work well with ConTeXt and METAPOST, even in the auctex mailing list. It's ok for the menu (apparently managed by site) but I don't have syntax highlighting except for comment and indenting doesn't work well. So, my questions are: 1. Since there is a ConTeXt mode, I suppose there is some advanced features like syntax highlighting and indentation rules. Am I right ? Yes, although the highlighting is rather sparse, mainly it seems to color anything after \ in gray, and the indentation rules somewhat finicky, requiring you to adhere to a structure it can parse. 2. If I'm right, how to configure it ? Some of the things are available as defcustoms but most of it I think requires hacking the functions. 3. I will use METAPOST in my .tex files, how to manage this within Emacs ? There is a metapost.el that is distributed with GNU Emacs (but not with XEmacs, works there too though). I sometimes just change to that major mode in the middle of the file, and this should be possible to automate using mmm, but I never tried. 4. You know advanded features I must know ? ;-) There is TeX debugging just as for LaTeX, automatically locating the error in the source and explaining it. I think possibly that the reason for the sparse syntax highlighting is the higher frequency of inline definitions in ConTeXt, making it impossible to keep up with it. I think it should be parsable, but requires emacs-lisp skills way beyond mine. I'm sorry but I'm addicted to Emacs and don't want to use Scite even if it seems ConTeXt-friendly. I'm aware of the fact that this mail is more Emacs/AucTeX related but since I didn't succeed in finding answers yet I submit this issue to the ConTeXt community.
