[NTG-context] "Missing" ligatures, smallcaps, etc.
Greetings all, I've just tried to retypeset a file with very recent conTeXt/pdfTeX minimals (as of a few days ago). The file is only a year or so old... but it was originally typeset with a combination of TeX installations. It goes almost okay, except that it doesn't show any ligatures (e.g. Th), and won't do the small capitals which the original handled fine.

Will mplib mean that the metapost > code can place any tex box at the desired location? Now that you mention it: I still need to adapt the gnuplot module to mkiv, but I'm a bit afraid of asking for help. (The most important thing would be to get rid of that stupid catcode trickery inside \startGNUPLOTscript ... \stopGNUPLOTscript that always tends to fail when one needs it, and to have one-to-one conversion, so that %,#, $, ... will have no special meaning.) Then, it would probably be a nice benchmark to discover bugs in the library :) For example, demos from this page (I'm not saying that they're too useful since 100x100 is too low resolution anyway): http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo_4.3/pm3d.html currently all fail because of the "out-of-memory" problem (10.000 times "fill unitsquare scaled ... shifted ... withcolor ..."), but this might be a ConTeXt problem as well (the text inside \startMPgraphic ... \stopMPgraphic probably needs to be stored somewhere in TeX, even if there's no need for that).

Thank you for your help, Wolfgang! I think I'll define a new \ref command
similar to the one in LaTeX, with upshape number. But maybe a new option
would be welcome? (just as for numberstyle=normal in \setupformulae). What do
you think? Is it a bad idea? I'm just curious...

And that was before we started optimizing, we are at least twice as fast now as we were then. And in the old system, batched metapost was a whole lot faster than runtime Metapost. Take a look at it this way: if you have a document stuffed full of backgrounds and borders and decorations, you may have a dozen unique decorations per page. On a 200-page book, the total runtime used by the new MPlib-based graphics system is then still less than a second (well, if you were using Hans' machine).

[NTG-context] mplib
Hi,
as some of you may know, there is an mplib project ..
last week taco and spent quite some time on exploring the integration in
luatex (and therefore mkiv)
experiments with loadiing the format, processing graphics and conversion
to pdf show a throughput of less than 0.001 seconds per graphic; a usual
we did much timing and although experimental, the code is already pretty
okay, just to give an idea:
mkiv lua stats : metapost processing time - 6.834 seconds (loading:
0.014 seconds, execution: 1.474 seconds, n: 15000)
indeed, that's 15K graphics in 7 seconds.
so, the next couple of months i'll start providing an adapted mp
handling mechanisms. among the possible options are
- extensions based on pre/postscripts (instead of specials)
- multiple mp engines (\startuseMPgraphic[metafun]{name} and such)
so, if you have specific wishes ... now is the time to let them know

Some questions (and hidden wishes)
Does this mean that text between metapost graphic and context can be
really transparent? Currently \sometxt does not work with all macros,
(like an old feature request by Mojca to have two optional arguments for
setting the font in the gnuplot module). Will mplib mean that the metapost
code can place any tex box at the desired location?
One thing which is really shaky in the current implementation is page
anchors. That is, marking something in a paragraph and then using the page
background to draw lines between different elements. Will such things be
easier to do and work correctly with display math? (I want to use these
effects in presentations, but have never managed to get a satisfactory
solution that works in display math).
I am assuming that there will be hooks so that packages like tikz to move
to a mplib backend.
Thanks,
Aditya

What do you want seems to be not possible but you could use the
