Re: [NTG-context] White Space in Running Headers
The following gets me close to what I am looking for. Adding
\setupinterlinespace[1pt] seems to suppress the addition of space between
the lines of the header. Changing the interlinespace only seems to have an
effect above some threshold related to the font size. For example, changing
1pt to 3pt has no visible effect. Changing 1pt to 10pt adds space between
the first and second lines only. Changing 1pt to 100pt adds space between
lines 1/2 and 2/3. I would prefer to have precise control over the space
between the lines, but I can live with this (it is much better than the
large spaces which appear of you remove the \setupinterlinespace
declarations).
This still leaves the problem of calculating the header height provided in
\setuplayout so that body text is a set distance from the header for
arbitrary font size, number of lines, and text contained in the header.
Thanks, Neal

at some point you will hit other limitations
you can jump the number by changing a line in

changed the beta a bit so that you can add this
line in the texmfcnf.lua file in the directives
section:
[luatex.savesize] = 10,
(i now report the relevant values at the end of
a context --make run as some need to be saved
with the format due to startup relationships)
I also set the value to 100K by default.

[NTG-context] Page Numbers in TOC; setuplabeltext
In the table of context for my documents, I would like Chapters to
have page numbers with alternative=c. However, my Appendices are not
paginated so I do not want them to have page numbers in the TOC.
Since (apparently), Appendix inherits from Chapter, each Appendix is
listed in the TOC with leading dots and page number 0 regardless of
what I put in \setuplist [appendix] when using \placecontent or
\completecontent.
So I tried creating my own head (based on title) and list. Placing
this list under the TOC gives me the effect I want (Appendices are
listed without dots or page numbers). Unfortunately, setuplabeltext
doesn't seem to work on my newly defined head. I've tried all manner
of variations like:
\definelist [myappendixlist]
\setuplist [myappendixlist]
[pagenumber=no,alternative=b,label=yes,conversion=Character]
\definehead[myappendix][title]
\def\appendixlabel#1#2{Appendix #1: #2}
\setuphead[myappendix][command=\appendixlabel]
%
\setuplabeltext [en][myappendix=Appendix~]
\newcounter\myappendices
\long\def\myappendix#1%
{\ifhmode\unskip\fi
\doglobal\increment\myappendices\relax
\high{\myappendices}%
\expanded{\writetolist[myappendixlist]{\myappendices}}{#1}}
1) Is there a way to suppress the display of Appendix page numbers in
a TOC while retaining alternative=c for Chapters?
2) Assuming the answer to (1) is no, how do I enable display of
labels in my custom defined head?
Thanks, Neal

Re: [NTG-context] Installation Problem

When I try to run texexec against the test file given in the installation instructions I don't get a dvi or pdf file. The output is: What instructions did you follow, precisely? I see some problems in your output, but it will be easier to explain using those instructions. I followed the instructions at: http://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/manuals/minstall.pdf First I used the TeX that came with my Linux distribution (RedHat Enterprise Linux v4) but that didn't work (perhaps it was too old). Then I installed teTeX ( http://www.tug.org/tetex/ ) which came with an old version of context that got in the way. I removed that old version and installed the version from here ( http://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/current/cont-tmf.zip ). Thomas Esser has (apparently just) announced that he will no longer be maintaining teTeX. Which version of TeX do you recommend I install?
