To make c.pdf from c.tex I use
$ texexec --pdf --silent c
Sometimes, if I'm sure about c.tex, under Linux i can write
$ texexec --pdf --batch --silent c /dev/null
Warning: --batch run until end, so I can make a bad pdf  if c is wrong.
I can do also
$ texexec --pdf --silent c myout
but if c.tex file is wrong, texexec can stop itself and wait from a 
prompt, and I can think that texexec is still running.
(in this situation, if I hit 'q' I will enter in batch-mode; with  
ctrl-d I abort texexec. myout collect standard out and error)
This can be a quick way to make a pdf, but sure not safe.

[NTG-context] Re: customizing footnote numbers

2005-04-06 Thread Patrick Gundlach

[...]


We are in a fully programmable environment,
 and it is extremely unConTeXtish to hack the visual appearance. 

 I am an XML author, so am pretty amazed to hear that one should not mix
 appearance and content in ConTeXt. Most of a ConTeXt document involves
 visual appearance. What is one saying when one writes \blank[12pt]?

This is visual appearance, of cource. But I am not talking about one
single instance of \blank anywhere, I am talking about changing a
reaeated statement (like the footnotes) by visual means. And
formatting instructions have no right to exist there (in fact they
should be filtered out by \sanitizelogigalmarkup{\footnote...}. This
is one of the great advantages of using a high level language such as
LaTeX or ConTeXt (and ConTeXt so much more than LaTeX) that we can
define layout in this way.

Since you come from an XML background and only have to change your
stylesheet, the hackary is doable, nobody ever sees it. But this
hackery is not to be used when using Context directly.

 Yes, that would be nice.  But until I see a concrete solution, I will
 continue to use and post my solution. A rule of etiquette is that if you
 don't have a better solution, or don't want to document it, don't attack
 the current solution, not matter how impure. 

Sorry, but I strongly disagree. It is not nice to teach/show other
people such code. They will take it for granted and put in their
documents. I have seen far too many LaTeX documents where exactly this
procedure leaded to unmaintainable code. It took me hours to extract
and correct those ugly hacks. One example: a person learned how to
remove indentation from a paragraph by saying \noindent. So every
paragraph had a \noindent before the paragraph (instead of doing it
right by saying \noindent0pt). And it was a long
document (and the \noindent was just one of the stupid things). So my 
advice is not to publish such code without several dangerous bend
signs.

Re: [NTG-context] Re: page on context and XML has moved

2005-04-06 Thread Piotr Kopszak
 
 Hi Piotr,
 
 First, if you use TeXML, make sure you download the latest version,
 1.25-devel. This version is very stable and robust, and has the
 texml_con script, which converts directly from XML to PDF or whatever
 format you require:
 
 texml_con any option you can use with texexec infile
 
 It will create a ConTeX file along the way, as its first step. So if
 your file is modern_photo.xml, a file called modern_photo.tex will be
 created. You could open the modern_photo.tex file and make small changes
 on that file. However, if you need to do this, you should instead type:
 
 texml.py -e -c modern_photo.xml modern_photo.tex
 
 That will create a ConTeXt file, which you can then alter.
 
 Of course, having to alter the ConTeXt file defeats the purpose of XML.
 You should be able to convert directly from XML to PDF. What alterations
 do you think you will have to make? 
 
 I know XSLT stylesheets can get very complicated. This is often the
 case, including when I convert XML to HTML. You could try converting in
 steps, making a small manageble change on one document, and then making
 a small manageable change and so on.
 
 Let me know your results. Good luck!

For instance in  the last catalogue I was typesetting  I had to change
hyphenation of some words in the final stage of work. By the way, this
is a more  general problem. Is it possible  to change hyphenation only
locally in ConTeXt?   That means to exclude possibility  of breaking a
word in  some place on one  page and allow  it on other pages?   I was
lucky as I had problems with words that appeared only once in the text
so  I   did  not  have  to   bother,  but  that   was  an  exceptional
situation. The  other thing that comes  to my mind are  all the things
that \adaptlayout was  invented for.  I don't believe  you can produce
large documents  without such last touches,  but on the  other hand it
does not make  much sense to me to edit by  hand the resulting ConTeXt
file. Maybe such changes could live in another xml file which could be
included at the end of work.

[NTG-context] hyphenation within columnsets with background

2005-04-06 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi, 

I am preparing a rather large text, completely set in 3 columns, which 
has lots of text with grey backgrounds.

During the preparation of this text, some questions came up :

1 - At first I put a grey background to my texts defining the 
following macros (they are used within columnsets): 

=
%start setting the text with a light grey background
\def\startlightgreybox{\setupframedtexts[frame=off, 
background=color, 
backgroundcolor=lightgrey, 
width=broad]
  \startframedtext
  {\bf Some frame title}}

%stop setting the text with a light grey background
\def\stoplightgreybox{\stopframedtext}
=


After a while, and to see what difference there was between both, I 
redefined both macros as : 

===
=
%start setting the text with a light grey background
\def\startlightgreybox{\setupbackground[background=color, 
backgroundcolor=lightgrey]
  \startbackground
  {\bf Some frame title}}

%stop setting the text with a light grey background
\def\stoplightgreybox{\stopbackground}  
===
==


And to my surprise, I saw, that hyphenation works clearly better when 
my backgrounds are defined with the second set of macros, which is of 
course good news, especially when using 3 columns, but : is there an 
explanation for this behaviour ?



2 - Another problem I have with those backgrounds is the following : 
they seem to work well when the text spreads over several 
columns/pages, as long as I don't force a 'next column' in the text.  
The following piece of context causes a 'TeX capacity exceeded' error:


\setupcolors[state=start]
\definecolumnset[driekol][n=3]
\setupbackground[background=color, backgroundcolor=gray]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[driekol]
\startbackground
this is the text I would like to have with a grey background
\column
and with a possibility to split columns ``manually'' when necessary
\stopbackground
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext

In the rare cases where I want to force a jump to the next column, I 
replace the \column command with:

\stopbackground
\column
\startbackground

Is this the only way to force column jumps when using backgrounds ?


Thanks,

Geert

It is not terribly obvious, but your \framed commands are missing a 
second argument, see the big manual, p. 227, where it gives the model:

\startcombination[n*m]
{text1}{subcaption 1}
{text2}{subcaption 2}

\stopcombination

This works for me:

  \framed{here}{}
  \framed{there}{}

So just add the two pairs of braces after your \framed and things should 
work out!

[NTG-context] spacing of values and units ^{-2}

2005-04-06 Thread Eckhart Guthöhrlein
Hi,

concerning m-units, it would be nice to configure whether to use a full
space or a thinspace between a number and its unit. Furthermore, some
space is needed between adjectant units like in 1\Meter\Inverse\Second.
I know there are some old threads concerning this topic, initiated by
me. But have there been any recent changes to the module, or are such
changes planned?
Btw: How to get a power to the minus 2?
Neither 1\Meter\Square\Inverse\Second nor 1\Meter\Inverse\Square\Second
work.

Re: [NTG-context] Charts

2005-04-06 Thread Willi Egger
Hi David,
As Patrick posted on the list, you can use the placefloat mechanism to 
get the whole chart splitted over several pages. In this case you will 
not be able to use interactivity within the chart.

I feel, that you want to split the chart over two pages. So you need to use
\FLOWcharts[...] (plural)
  ^
Use \showframe to see the actual margins, header and footer. You will 
have to play with the different parameters to make things fit. E.g. 
there is no room for 8 shapes on a A4 if you do not change the 
page-layout. Though it works with 7 shapes. If you want that the text 
follows directly the FLOWchart, then you need to withdraw the 
after=\page. You might want to increase the space between chart and text 
by e.g. after={\blank[3*big]}.

I hope this will help solving your problem

 Hi David,
 
 If I remember correctly one should not use the \maxwidth option.
 Personally I have at this moment work under hand using the following setup:
 
 \setupFLOWcharts
  [x=1,
  y=1,
  nx=5,
  ny=11,
  dx=\bodyfontsize,
  dy=\bodyfontsize,
  width=6\bodyfontsize,
  height=4\bodyfontsize]
 
 \setupFLOWsplit
[x=1,
y=1,
nx=5,
ny=10,
dx=1,
dy=1,
before=,
after=\page,
marking=off]
 
 This works perfectly even with charts consuming multiple pages.
 
 Kind regards Willi

 Um, that might be unique to your own system. I don't have t-nath on a
 pretty up-to-date install.

that is interesting, it is in tetex 3.0, but not in the distribution. So
we should handle it as a not-included module. (?)

[NTG-context] Textfont in math-formulas?

2005-04-06 Thread Kai Straube
Hi There,

I have a little problem with fonts in my document. I use the cm sans serif 
font in my text and want to have this in the tex-formulas to, but it worked 
not for me.
Simple example:

\enableregime[utf]
\setupoutput[pdf]
\mainlanguage[de]
\language[de]
\setuppapersize[A4]
\setupbodyfont[ss]

\starttext
Some text, we can read it without serifs. But the formula: $ \frac{1}{x-2} $ 
is not in the same font.
\stoptext

BTW is there another way to have units like g/(cm^3) as to set them as 
tex-formula. I dont no if the module units do such things.

Thanks,

Kai

True.
It would be nice if (at least) the documentation could live on the
garden... I had to google Taco's old site last night in order to work
through some t-bib stuff.

 remove indentation from a paragraph by saying \noindent. So every
 paragraph had a \noindent before the paragraph (instead of doing it
 right by saying \noindent0pt). And it was a long

talking about teaching: 

a) it is \parindent=0pt, not \noindent=0pt

b) the ConTeXt way is using

Yes, because the modules in the core depend on the context version.
So I think all modules should be listed, with some additionnal

such that
