Hi Mojca,

Mojca Miklavec a écrit :

textext? Did it work? On my computer it hangs after approximately 13
plots. The suggested option is to use sometxt now.
  

textext works for me, all my plots use this option.

Even better (faster) if you have a compiled version of plots and only
include PDF ;)
  

Ok, but what about font embedding ? I precisely like to proceed the plot
as mp code because of the embedding of fonts...
I explain: when I began ConTeXt, I included plots as pdf from
LaTeX+PStricks and I observed an annoying fact, i.e. the fonts are
embedded twice !
For this reason, when I heard of a context (via mp) term, I tried it...
with success...

 And t-gnuplot is/will be on modules.contextgarden.net (Hans might add

which is when?
 That one is not so clean yet. I need to implement changing the color

maybe at least have a release before tex live gets frozen ... 20/11

Nice work! I can't read French, but the figures are very nice and
content is probably interesting as well ;)

I didn't know that people were indeed using the module already (I
started using it more regularly only recently).

Now one question: how exactly did you create/include the plots? With
which version of the module? I don't mind if some of my plots break
if I slightly change the interface before officially releasing it, but
I don't want other people to have problems with that.

2006-11-13 Thread Oliver Buerschaper
Thanks very much ... I tried it out and it worked. But I guess I'll  
have to spend some more time fiddling around with the options to make  
it look similar to what I'm used from the AMSLaTeX package.

Cheers,
Oliver


 May I ask a newbie question? How did you create the lemmas?

 Hello,

 today, lemmas can be based on description/enumeration mechanism (I  
 believe
 it's been in ConTeXt since circa January 2006).

 Descriptions now accept parameter title=yes. Using that, you can  
 provide a
 title to the description. Have a look into core-des.tex.

 I found a mysterious startlemma in core-des.tex via the ConTeXt
 garden source browser but

 Naturally, the example of lemma definition is commented out ;)

 Copy
 \defineenumeration[lemma][title=yes, titlestyle=\bs, list=lemma]
 into your document and try to use
 \startlemma{title of the lemma}
 blah blah
 \stoplemma

 Check parameters of descriptions in the manual, you can find some  
 options
 related to the title mechanism.

 Yours,
 D.A.

 P.S.: I've achieved the same functionality by means of ugly hacks that
 depend on ConTeXt version strongly.  That's why I don't send you my
 configuration.

dunno (but hope so because of the result...)

"which version of the module"? I don't mind if some of my plots break
if I slightly change the interface before officially releasing it, but
I don't want other people to have problems with that.

You're right. I've used the latest darcs' release (up to the "points
added, some options, etc..." patch). For the inclusion, it's better to
have an example in mind:

 file curves.gp
set terminal context input textext linewidth .3 size 1.2

set output "curves.tex"

set xlabel "$x$ (m)"
set ylabel "$z$ (m)"

set notitle
plot sin(x) with lines lw 2 notitle

set xlabel "$t$ (s)"
set ylabel "a label"

set notitle
plot cos(x)

 file gpsample.tex:
\usemodule[t-gnuplot]

\setupcolors[state=start]

\starttext
\processGNUPLOTfile[mybeautifulcurves][curves]

\placefigure[here]{none}{
 \startcombination[1*2]
 {\useMPgraphic{gpg:mybeautifulcurves:1}}{$\sin$}
 {\useMPgraphic{gpg:mybeautifulcurves:2}}{$\cos$}
 \stopcombination
}

\stoptext

The output is processed using:
gnuplot curves.gp
texexec gpsample

With this method, the gnuplot call delivers a curves.tex file one could
keep as long as the plot doesn't change... Can be usefull when you have
a big document! ;)

I'll write a paper entitled "How to get a PhD with... ConTeXt" asap (I
have the summary and the ideas but time is missing these days, as
always and, moreover because of my new job...). It'll mainly be a paper
about integration (m-bib, gnuplot, mp, etc...)

Best regards


Renaud

PS: what will you do to manage your gnuplot module for ConTeXt ?
Include it into official gnuplot ? It's maybe the time to keep it "well
managed", with supelec foundry for example... What your opinion ?

Maybe Renaud can tell us a little more about the details of the typesetting? 
What font did you use and what program did you use to make the plots (I 
particularly like the fact that the font in the plots is the same as in the 
text!), it reminds me a little of R plots, but I may be wrong... And the 
flowcharts are made with the chart module if I'm not mistaken?

All in all the thesis looks very nice!
