I have never been stubborn enough in order to try to make luatex work
over the existing gwTeX, so I have been always using Hans's minimals
(you need to download justtex.zip and macosxtex.zip, unzip them and
run ". setuptex").

If you only want to play with luaTeX, here's something experimental
that you can test if you have rsync (no warranty that the structure
will remain the same):

rsync -rvzctl rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/minimals/mac-ppc/ mytex
cd mytex
. setuptex
mktexlsr
luatools --generate
texexec --lua --make --all
texexec --make --all

and then you should be able to compile your document with
texexec --lua something
(as long as you stay in the same terminal)

Re: [NTG-context] LuaTeX on Mac OS X

2007-10-04 Thread Dalyoung Jeong
Dear Thomas, Mojca, and Otared,

Thank you for the instructions. I think that I followed the  
instructions of installation without problems. But I have a problem  
running luatools.

A few week ago, I succeeded running luatools --generate, but not  
luatools --ini --... after making .luatex containg variables like  
TEXMF, TEXMFCNF, etc.

I removed gwTeX and reinstalled MacTeX, I did the same steps of  
installation and I got the errors. At this time, even "luatools -- 
generate" didn't run correctly. It is ooking for the wrong folder.

I tried "setuptex"(copy setuptex to the binary, and chmod 755 to  
run), but it asked me to "provide a proper tex directory like / 
something/tex"

It seems to me that luatools are not able to get the texlive home  
dirextory.
I may try once more using another mac because sometime it behaved  
differently.

Thank you for your concern.

Best regards,

Dalyoung

[NTG-context] Problem with XML entities in titles [2]

2007-10-04 Thread Richard Gabriel
Hello Hans,

some time ago I've reported this problem with character entities. I've just 
upgraded to ConTeXt 2007-09-28, and the problem still persists!
Could you please look into it? A simple test file is attached.

Many thanks,
Richard

Hello Hans, 

I'd like to report a problem (bug) with XML entities in chapter or section 
titles.
I've just upgraded to the recent ConTeXt version (2007.08.09) and started to 
get errors while processing the .tuo file.

Please test the attached minimal example.
During the second TeX run, I get the following error:

--- cut ---

(find the complete log in attachment)

Till today, I have been using ConTeXt version 2007.04.17 and it had worked fine!

Thanks,

 After these setting everything works fine. Thank you very much

 environment about 2003 and only my wife has used it
 from time to time. If everything works I didn't upgrade it...

Because it's hardcoded in setuptex that one needs to have some files
at fixed locations. You can modify setuptex a bit according to your
needs (remove those explicit checks).

Hello Richard,

I'm not Hans but I can also give you a solution to your problem.

This is related to your own definition for the chapter header and
ConTeXt's mechanism to save the two pass information of the headers,
you should save the header text and expand the header command
with the header text, you can use my example for your problem.

BTW: Your xml file is valied because you forgot to include the
chapter end tag.

\defineXMLenvironment [chapter]
  {\defineXMLsave[title]}
  {\expanded{\chapter{\XMLflush{title

\defineXMLenvironment[para] \dontleavehmode \par

\defineXMLentities [tex] {tex} {\TeX}

Hello Wolfgang,

thanks for Your hint.

> I'm not Hans but I can also give you a solution to your problem.
OK, sorry, maybe I shouldn't address Hans directly when writing to the mailing 
list... ;-)

> BTW: Your xml file is valied because you forgot to include the

Ooops! I've quickly created a minimal test file; of course I didn't want to 
attach the real file where I've encountered that problem...

Anyway, the XML file is structured the following way:

This is a testing chapter
Some meaningless text...


So — let's see
Some meaningless text...


... the paragraphs are enclosed inside chapters.
So unfortunately I can't use your solution because the \chapter command needs 
to be issued at the beginning, not at the end tag.

Got any another idea?


Many thanks,
Richard

[NTG-context] \usepackage{pslatex} equivalent for context

2007-10-04 Thread frantisek holop
hi there,

i was wondering if there was a quick and dirty equivalent for
latex's \usepackage{pslatex}

http://ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pslatex/#jh1c2c136f7e9809d3217b77eccac957d6:

This is a small package that makes LaTeX default to `standard'
PostScript fonts. It is basically a hacked merger of times.sty and
mathptm.sty, from the psnfss suite of packages. You must have
installed standard LaTeX (LaTeX2e) and psnfss PostScript fonts
to use this package.

thanks.

[NTG-context] starttabulate vs starttable

2007-10-04 Thread frantisek holop
hi there,

please consider the following minimal examples:

\starttext
\starttable[|l|l|l|]
\NC MidE \VL early ModE \VL ModE  \NC \SR \HL
\NC ge:s \VL gi:s   \VL geese \NC \FR
\NC na:m \VL ne:minimal \VL name  \NC \MR
\NC mi:s \VL mays   \VL mice  \NC \LR
\stoptable

\starttabulate[|l|l|l|]
\NC MidE \NC early ModE \NC ModE  \NC \NR \HL
\NC ge:s \NC gi:s   \NC geese \NC \NR
\NC na:m \NC ne:minimal \NC name  \NC \NR
\NC mi:s \NC mays   \NC mice  \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext

the tabulate example is basicly the same without
the vertical lines, which it seems like it can't do,
i get an ! Undefined control sequence.

but \HL seems to work (and \VL not).
tabulate is very lightly documented so i am not sure
which table command works there and which not.

i'd like to use tabulate instead of table because
of the spacing.  i dont need to stretch the content
like table does.  this is a small inline "table"
between 2 paragpraphs, tabulate seems more elegant
to me here.

Han,
it would be nice if tabulate could handle VL,
that would make tabulate even more useful.
pretty please :D

  I really don't know much about tabular material in ConTeXt, but from
the very first line of http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tabulate I would
assume that this is indeed a feature (no vertical lines in tabulate).

[NTG-context] definewhitespace

2007-10-04 Thread frantisek holop
hi there,

i am in 2 column mode and i can't seem to make
setupwhitespace work.

i would like to put some really small whitespace between paragpraphs.

so for it's 1 or 0.  either a fixed amont of space, or none.

the docs say:

\setupwhitespace[...]
...   none small medium big line fixed fix dimension


but the source defines these in cont-spa.tex:

\definewhitespacemethod [\v!fix]  {}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!fixed]{\witruimteflexibelfalse}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!flexible] {\witruimteflexibeltrue}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!line] {\ctxparskip  \baselineskip}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!halfline] {\ctxparskip.5\baselineskip}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!none] {\ctxparskip  \zeropoint}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!big]  {\ctxparskip  \bigskipamount}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!medium]   {\ctxparskip  \medskipamount}
\definewhitespacemethod [\v!small]{\ctxparskip  \smallskipamount}

is flexible for the dimension mode?

what do fix and fixed mean?
(halfline is undocumented?)

does `dimension' mean i can simply give it a tex dimension?
e.g.
\setupwhitespace[4pt]
?

thanks for helping out a tired texer :D

\usetypescript[postscript][ec] %typescript name
\setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt] % typeface name

That one is possible because of this in type-one.tex:

\starttypescript [postscript] [texnansi,ec,qx,t5,uc,8r]
\definetypeface [postscript] [rm] [serif] [times] [default]
[encoding=\typescripttwo]
\definetypeface [postscript] [ss] [sans]  [helvetica] [default]
[rscale=.9,encoding=\typescripttwo]
\definetypeface [postscript] [tt] [mono]  [courier]   [default]
[rscale=1.1,encoding=\typescripttwo]
\definetypeface [postscript] [mm] [math]  [times] [default]
\usemathcollection[default]
\quittypescriptscanning
\stoptypescript

You can combine fonts "easily" like that.

Right now, tabulate does not support vertical lines. It is a nice 
feature to have. I know that the style guide says that one should not 
use vertical rules, but I feel that there I cases when I need them.

Actually, table also works for this kind of thing. The place where 
tabulate is really needed is when you want automatic width for 
paragraphs.

You can make table squeeze content vertically by saying

\setuptables[depth=0.3,height=0.6]

The default is height=0.8, depth=0.4. Play around with these values.

Actually, core-tbl.tex says

%  \VLas soon as needed
%  color  as soon as needed

Compare:

[NTG-context] most recent context and luatex for linux

2007-10-04 Thread Lutz Haseloff
Hi all,

if i try to "texexec --lua --make --all" i get following error message:
--
(/usr/share/context/texmf-local/tex/context/base/lang-ini.mkiv
! LuaTeX error ...re/context/texmf-local/tex/context/base/lang-ini.lua:9:
attempt to index global 'lang' (a nil value).
\ctxluabytecode ...ode " .. "#1" .. str) end end }

\registerctxluafile ...{\the \luabytecodecounter }
  \fi \fi
l.16 \registerctxluafile{lang-ini}{1.001}

?
--

line 9 in lang-ini.lua is:
--
if lang.use_new then lang.use_new(true) end
--


I use luatex 11.2 beta (self compiled).
The error occurs in normal context and in the beta.


Greetings

Yes, that's what Hans wrote when he announced this beta: you'll need  
the latest latest luatex, i.e. you have to checkout the svn trunk and  
compile yourself (and what do you mean "in normal context"?)

o.k. my fault as usual :-(
I thought the newest source archive on foundry.supelec.fr where the latest.
Current context works as expected with my beta 11.2 binary.
Please don't mind the noise accompanying my first steps using context on
linux...
