[dev-context] Writing own interface for natural tables
I try currently to write a simplified environment for natural tables
to allow a simmiliar interface like tabulate and the old tables.
My problem ist that i need to save my input in a box feed this into
the \bTD/\eTD pair. This did not work if I collect all my text, put
this text into the tablebox and reuse this box for the next entry.
The follwing example shows my only working solution, it for every new
entry a new box. This works for a few entries untill my created boxes
use the same box number as the internal boxes used in the TABLE
macros.
example
\newbox\TABLEbox
\newcount\TABLEcount \TABLEcount\zerocount
\def\bWTD
{\advance\TABLEcount\plusone
\setbox\the\TABLEcount\hbox\bgroup}
\def\eWTD
{\egroup
\edef\wolf{\unhcopy\the\TABLEcount}
\expanded{\bTD\wolf\eTD}}
\starttext
\bTABLE
\bTR
\bWTD Text 1 \eWTD
\bWTD Text 2 \eWTD
\eTR
\bTR
\bWTD Text 3 \eWTD
\bWTD Text 4 \eWTD
\eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext
/example
I hope there is a solution to solve this problem.
MfG
Wolfgang

[dev-context] [contexttest-Feature Requests][54 ] offsets in TABLE-cells

Or even topoffset, bottomoffset, leftoffset and rightoffset. Peter -- Comment By: Mojca Miklavec (mojca) Date: 2007-01-24 04:05 Message: Here are some macros that Wolfgang Schuster schuster.wolfgang at googlemail.com sent me some time ago (shame on me that I didn't do anything about it!) They should probably be integrated, not simply overloaded, but ... I would vote for that feature too.

[dev-context] garden: new ConTeXt?
I know I have asked this question before and I know you have been discussing this question and cc'd to me but anyway. I think this is definitely time to switch the TeX distribution for garden. I use debian 3.1 there and I don't want to update anything to testing/unstable/... Could you give me an advice? Should i use the minimal ConTeXt distribution from PRAGMA ADE?

Re: [dev-context] Fix for Footnote Reference problem
On Thursday 25 January 2007 00:35, Taco Hoekwater wrote: Hans and I have been looking at your patch, but unfortunately it can not be incorporated in the distribution as-is. The problem is that some references need to be written inside the output routine, that being the only place were the actual page number is known. Think about references in floats, for example. The bit of code you have modified is unlikely to change soon, so you could probably keep using your local patches (or better: redefinitions of the macros within cont-loc.tex) without much problems. I wonder whether it would be beneficial to include all of the patches except the immediate write? That would appear to solve most problems except some cases of \somewhere to a reference on the same page. Most \somewhere's refer to distant references. Fixing the off-by-one and off-by-a-factor-of-two errors would help enormously. Is there a way to make the immediate write conditional on not floating? Hans proposed that a definitive solution would be to always add position information to the references, but that will take a fair bit of work, so it is on a todo, but not quite now list. Absolutely. --Mike Bird ___ dev-context mailing list dev-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/dev-context

Then you're in troubles ;) You can't get a stable ConTeXt ;) Are you sure you want one? ;) Could you give me an advice? Should i use the minimal ConTeXt distribution from PRAGMA ADE? http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Debian_installation The others will surely have a better answer, but I guess that you can install *only* TeXLive without having to switch to unstable: quoting If you are not running unstable, simply add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ context/ deb-src http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ context/ /quoting Since you have ConTeXt updating procedure already, it's probably enough to install TeXLive and no ConTeXt.

Anybody with experience on that? I guess Norbert knows what he is doing, so I think I'll try those packages first. No, on current stable definitely not. It does not have tex-common nor any infrastructure. One *could* in theory compile the packages for sarge. There are already backports for teTeX3 and tex-common etc, but I haven't tried this. And I am happy that the texlive packages made it into etch! No, the options are: - etch - or TL2007 from the iso image, but without package managing and with no updates to context.
