[NTG-context] How to update/install minimals
Hallo,
I wanted to update a minimal-installation under windows.
The first attempt was to invoke:
first-detup --keep (found at the garden)
The result was the following output, nothing else happend:
-
receiving incremental file list
./
mtxrun.lua
sent 2897 bytes received 2103 bytes 2000.00 bytes/sec
total size is 4983352 speedup is 996.67
MTXrun | fileio: variable SELFAUTOLOC set to D:/context/bin
MTXrun | fileio: variable SELFAUTODIR set to D:/context
MTXrun | fileio: variable SELFAUTOPARENT set to D:
MTXrun | fileio: variable TEXMFCNF set to
{$SELFAUTODIR,$SELFAUTOPARENT}{,{/share,}/texmf{-
local,.local,}/web2c}
MTXrun | fileio: no cnf files found (TEXMFCNF may not be set/known)
MTXrun | using script: ./bin/mtx-update.lua
D:\context\bin\mtxrun.lua:1611: attempt to call field 'env' (a table
value)
When you want to use context, you need to initialize the tree with:
D:\context\tex\setuptex.bat D:\context\tex
You can associate this command with a shortcut to the cmd prompt.
-
What is the field 'env'?
The second attempt was the reinstall context. I downloaded:
http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/context-setup-mswin.zip
to a new directory and started first-setup.
But the result was identical to the first.
What I am doing wrong?

This is not working.
Even an explizit

\stopuseMPgraphic

didn't work.
I will use one of the other solutions. Thank you very much!

1. The labels of the first graphic are xscaled (randomly) when the
second graphic is included. Comment the second, and the first is ok.
What I am doing wrong here?
This seems to be ok with luatex.
2. The settings in \startMPenvironment do not use the smaller font
size [8pt] without [global]. And the outside Text (Bla) remains not
big [11pt] with [global]. How can I toggle the two sizes differently?
3. After editing the mp-code I allways have to purge files between
two runs. Is this normal?

Re: [NTG-context] letter
Hallo Wolfgang, it seems to me that referenzline, subject, foldmarks, etc, are about 4mm or 5mm to big (A4 paper). The foldmark for example should be 105mm from papertop. It is 110mm from top. The horizontal offset (3.5mm) of foldmarks ist to small. A laserprinter often is not able to print 5mm or more from paperedge. So the foldmarks are invisibel.

Has there something changed in the file finding mechanism since

May be you are right that operating system steals files. We should do

I still use the LaTeX class scrlttr2 for my letters. I use adress files bundled with that class. Adresses are macros and selected by a string-key. Maybe it would be nice, if there could be a interface to such a key and a lua-function (which defaults to return) taking this key as argument. So everybody can write his own adress-import function.

I tried the same with 'mpost'. This has the advantage that one has
not to adapt 'plain.mp'.
But here too, there is no 'mpost.mem' and no 'mpost.log'.
I have included a test before and after mp:finish().
Can anybody with a minimal under windows run this example?

No.
There is neither a 'plain.fmt' nor a 'plain.mem'!
I have searched in the local directory, where it should be.
It is not in 'D:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\web2c' where format-files
usally exist.
It is not in the cache.
I run this:

this first step runs with res=0, but there is no 'plain.mem' dumped.
(I have temporary appended 'dump;' to plain.mp)
this first step runs with res=0 with mp:execute('mpost'), but no
'mpost.mem'
the first step even runs with res=0 and mp:execute('\\plain; dump;'),
but no 'plain.mem'
after that I produced 'plain.mem' executing
'texmfstart texexec --make plain'

this second step returns res=3.
Is there a find_file function necessary to find the mem-file given in
'mem_name' or is such a function only necessary for file-names in
'mp:execute'?

May be I do not understand this right, but I thought that '\' is luas
escape character and tex.print() returns '\' not '\\'. So TeX sees no
macro '\\' which could expand to whatever.

Could not find the definition of \detokenize.

I thought 'plain.mem' is the default. But I see, there exists only
'metafun.mem'.
So I wrote:
--
mp = mplib.new ( {
hash_size = 10,
main_memory = 200,
param_size = 10,
mem_name = "metafun.mem"
} )
--
and it get the same result

\startlua
mp = mplib.new ( {
hash_size = 10,

} )
if mp then
res = metapost.process("metafun","beginfig(1) draw (0,0) .. (1,1)
.. (2,1); endfig; bye;")
tex.print("[" .. tostring(res.status) .. "]")
mp:finish()
end
\stoplua
--
results in :
--
mplib : loading format: metafun.mp, name:

\@@expanded . "]")
-- mp:finish()

}

why does it load 'metafun.mp'?
after that I tried
--
\startlua
mp = mplib.new ( {
hash_size = 10,
main_memory = 200,
param_size = 10,
mem_name = "metafun.mem"
} )
if mp then
res = metapost.process(mp,
"beginfig(1) draw (0,0) .. (1,1) .. (2,1); endfig; bye;")
tex.print("[" .. tostring(res.status) .. "]")
mp:finish()
end
\stoplua
--
which gives the following error:

[NTG-context] luatexing
Hallo,
I have a few silly questions about
tex.print()
To produce
$\sqrt{2}=1.4142135623731$
it should be enough to write
tex.print("$\\sqrt{2}=" .. math.sqrt(2) .. "$")
or better
tex.print([[$\sqrt{2}=]] .. math.sqrt(2) .. "$")
but that's both not working. The following instead does the job:
tex.print("$\string\\sqrt{2}=" .. math.sqrt(2) .. "$")
why?
Another question:
What is the differenz between 'tex.sprint()' and 'tex.write()'?

[NTG-context] mpost update in minimal windows
Hallo, I tried to update my metapost executable in the Windows ConTeXt minimal. In the bin dir I found both mpost.exe (Version 1.000-rc1) and a mpost.dll In the archive 'metapost-1.002-windows.zip' there is mpost.exe (Version 1.002 (Web2C 7.5.5)) and no dll So I downloaded 'mplib-alpha-0.20-win32.zip' but there is an other exe newpost.exe (Version 1.002 (Cweb version 0.20)) and no dll So I wonder where I can find the matching dll and which exe above is the right one. There is an other strange thing: In the aktuell 'cont-win.zip' is a 'texmfstart.exe' dated 2007-08-07 with about 700 KB. But the 'texmfstart.exe' in my bin dir, which is installed 7 or 8 months ago ist dated 2007-08-08 and much bigger (~900KB). The next thing I wanted to do ist to update LuaTeX. Ohjeohje?!

Ahhh! The HEIGHT (not the width) ist the problem!?
So:
\startcolumns
\dontleavehmode
\vphantom{$a_n=\frac{(-1)^n}{\sqrt{n}}-3$}$a_n=2+\frac{1}{n+1}$%
$a_n=\frac{(-1)^n}{\sqrt{n}}-3$
\stopcolumns
works too.
Is there something like an \mathstrut macro? (I know, that there
exists a macro with this name, but that uses ')' as height.)

Why is this working? Here the first column is as big as the second
above (same formula), so the same problem should arise with the first
column as above with the second?
> \startitemize[columns,a]

Why does the \column help with the first formula?
No, I don't understand this at all.

[NTG-context] itemize and math
Hallo,
I have a problem with
\startitemize[columns,a]
\item $a_n=2+\frac{1}{n+1}$
\item $a_n=\frac{(-1)^n}{\sqrt{n}}-3$
\stopitemize
which is NOT in columns.
\startitemize[columns,a]
\item one
\item two
\stopitemize
works!
How can I solve this?

And what about the nonstoping \rescan? I don't understand this

Why is it not possible to use palatino? The font is installed by
default, Pagella is not. There should be a fallback to palatinno in
this case.

If I change the above /def to /edef I get (my debug: 1), but as a
sideeffect the counter is incremented and therefor is starting with 2
then.

\letitemparameter\itemlevel\c!start\empty}
commenting this line has too the above sideeffect that counting is
started with 2.
But I don't understand the whole thing.
If I understand you right, the c!start is for increasing the
itemizelevel NOT the numbering. So I wonder why the later is
affected.

Hi Wolfgang!
This works!
But two questions remain:
1) I am wondering, how you find such answers. What is your strategie
searching the sources?
2) What is that existing option 'start' for? Take this as an example

[NTG-context] m-pstric
Hallo,
I tried the example in the module pstric, but it is not working.
Running my 'tst.tex' loads the module and since it is in pdf-mode
a line
pstricks : using indirect method; enable write18
was written.
But in 'tst-texapp.log' appears the same line:
pstricks : using indirect method; enable write18
so 'tst-texapp.tex' was not run in dvi-mode and the pstricks macros
are not loaded and \pspicture is unknown.
\startTEXapplication
has a line
\executesystemcommand{texexec ...}
So my question is:
- Is dvi-mode the default for texexec? (I know it was, but there were
some opposite remarks on the list)
- If dvi is not the default, what is the right switch?
('texexec --dvi ...' has no effect)

[NTG-context] Scite
Hallo! I had a little problems to install scite 1.74 for conTeXt under Windows. First, I tried to import both 'context.properties' and 'default.properties' in this order in 'SciteGlobal', but only the second(?) was imported. I tried to comment a few other imports, which I don't use, but Scite refuses to import context. Finally I imported 'context.properties' in 'default.properties'. That works! The CTX-tools redefine the keys Ctrl-B and Ctrl-E which normaly are used to insert abbreviations (which can be language-dependend now) and to find matching braces. I replaced the 'Open Logfile' with Ctrl- L (former Ctrl-E) and deleted the 'Check Text' entry completly, because I am calling ISpell with Ctrl-I therefore. It remains one problem: In the Scite console, the backspace key is not really working (the char is deleted only on screen, not in the buffer). Has anybody a solution?

I am looking for a good way to convert these fonts to type1, but textrace and mftrace don't run under windows and the results of mf2pt1 are not (yet) ok. I am working on this. Has anybody ever tried to rewrite metafont to produce type1 fonts?

[NTG-context] MetaFont

I would like to volunteer to help writing such docs for texfont or otfinstall. But it is very difficult to get the information. Not all of us are able to read sourcecode in perl and ruby and lua.

It is nice to have such scripts. But I would like to know what goes on behind the scene. In principle one has to know all the steps to do it by hand.

'type-gyr.tex' defines!!! adventor. But the encoding-script is wrong,
as Thomas has pointed out.
--- excerpt from type-gyr.tex ---
\definetypescriptprefix [n:adventor][TeXGyreAdventor]
\definetypescriptprefix [f:adventor][ag]
\starttypescript [serif] [pagella,termes,heros,bonum,schola,adventor]
[ec,texnansi,cs,el,qx,rm,t5,t2a,t2b,t2c,l7x]
\loadmapfile[q\typescriptprefix{f:\typescripttwo}-\typescriptthree.map]
\definefontsynonym [\typescriptprefix{n:\typescripttwo}-Regular]
[\typescriptthree-q\typescriptprefix{f:\typescripttwo}r]
[encoding=\typescriptthree]
...
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [sans] [heros,adventor] [name]
\definefontsynonym [Sans]

I still have some questions:
- A complete (all gyre-fonts) type-script makes sense. Will 'type-
gyr' be fixed, or should I create my own?
- What are the map-files at the gyre-site for?
- Is the second \loadmapfile entry above redundant?
- What is the correct texfont syntax, to install adventors small-caps
variant?
- There are enc-files in the ??dvips?? subdirectory of the font tree:
'fonts/enc/dvips/tex-gyre/q--sc.enc
Should I make use from these files? Will they be found there?

Because there were map-files for conTeXt at the gyre-site and a typescript with ConTeXt, I thought I just have to copy everything to the right place. But obviously the gyre-map-files don't fit with the type-gyr script. On the other site, installing the fonts with texfont works, but I don't have found the trick to install the small caps variant, and the naming is not yet the same as in type-gyr (I have to experiment a bit with this!) But I like to know, what I else have to do when installing these fonts manuelly.
