[NTG-context] lucida bright on mac os x (gwtex)
Dear context users, Does anyone have experience in setting up Gerben Wierda's gwTex for Mac OS X to use ConTeXt and lucida bright fonts? Could you advice me where to buy the fontset for Mac OS X? And can anyone offer me a pointer to good step-by-step recipe to convert and install the fontset? I know I ask a lot in just a few lines, but my guess is that people have figured out how to do this before.

Re: [NTG-context] pagination bug
Hans,
I may not have stated the seriousness of this bug adequately. What I
meant to say was that after the first page the example doen't paginate
at all!
TIA

Hans,
The following minimum file does not paginate correctly. It overflows
the second page. Removing the figure or the second level of
itemization fixes the pagination. I have enclosed the text of the file
and the file itself for ease of reproduction.
I am using the latest stable version from i-installer. I actually
think I have had this problem before but not tracked it down.

Hi,

privately send me your preamble we might be able to find what

line until delimiters don't work anymore: you'll find what

OK, I'll try that. At the moment I'm having all kinds of issues with

to work properly under MikTeX.

Re: [NTG-context] Wrapping \type{}
At 01:20 30/05/2004, you wrote:
In my BNF module I use as an active character that begins and ends
terminals in the grammar:
regex: branch ; branch, \|, regex.
Now, the above doesn't quite work as written, as \ is still active (and
so is, in fact | as we're really inside a \starttabulate.
What I would like for the pair to do is work as a wrapper for
\type{}, so that everything in-between is passed on to \type{}.
Is there a way of getting them to do that?
This is my current definition:
\gdef%
{\ifBNFoutsidestring%
\global\BNFoutsidestringfalse%
\begingroup%
\BNFunsetcatcodes%
\catcode`\\@@active%
\@@bnfterminalstart%
\else%
\@@bnfterminalstop%
\endgroup%
\global\BNFoutsidestringtrue%
\fi}
I figured something like
\long\gdef#1%
{\type{#1}}
might work, but it didn't. It chokes on . where . is also an
activated character for terminating a production in the grammar.
Any suggestions on how to go about this? I mean, the obvious solution
is simply to write
regex: branch ; branch, \type{\|}, regex.
instead, but I would like to keep the input as clean as possible.

(cross your fingers that this does not interfere with reading files, but

an alternative is to write a plugin forthe verbatim environment (see

the problem is in (1) not all fonts having all chars [esp cmr have gaps]
