I usually put my files to texmf-local. Well, no, I actually copy
"setuptex" into "mytex" and make local modifications there, so that I
can include my own texmf trees (ugly solution). We just got a
complaint about non-existant TEXMFHOME during the conference. We took
setuptex from Hans' distribution and did not touch TEXMFHOME at all.
The problem is that Hans wanted to prevent old local files to
interefere with "standalone" tree, completely isolated from the outer
world.
We can either:
- fix setuptex, but I would like to have Hans' permission to do it
- create another "setupfriendlytex" :) and modify whatever we want there
The fix is super-easy: change
export HOMETEXMF=/nonexist
into
export HOMETEXMF=~/.texmf
(with or without the dot - up to you; MacTeX uses ~/Library/texmf or
something similar, I think, but should check)
And then add TEXMFHOME to the list:
export
TEXMF='{$TEXMFHOME,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFOS,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}'
But I need someone to tell me to do that
> (b) running the various binaries (e.g., texmfstart, ctxtools) in
> /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals from Terminal
You can create ~/.bash_profile and put one of those lines into it (I
suggest (a), but (b) would suffice):
a) . /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex
b) export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin:$PATH
Then, once you start a new shell, you'll see the programs in your
shell. "/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex" assumes that you have
installed your files to that folder. Change accordingly. The minimals
are not a GUI program, so I would rather put it to some other folder,
but that's up to users. (I have the files simply in my home dir.)
The main problem is that GUI programs won't see that ~/.bash_profile,
so you need to follow the slighly off rules for TeXShop where there
are indeed quite some mistakes.
Can you please send the output of
find /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals | head -n 20
I suspect that you were setting the wrong folder during download of minimals.

You can try
texexec --passon="-synctex=1" filename
but I didn't manage to make it work - it always pointed back to
\stoptext or \page, just as it pointed to the end of minipage in
LaTeX. Apart from the fact that I wasn't sure which tool to use to
make rsync work (when I was testing, TeXShop didn't support synctex
yet, TeXWorks behaved weird, and one would need to write support for
TextMate first, but when Patrick tried it, he have up after
discovering that it didn't work anyway).
While answering you I just got a reply from Jérôme:

Run
texexec --make de
first and put
% interface=de
on top of your file.
After that, the document compiles here, but I was not able to figure
out what command is used for \section/\subject in German.

You need to run
context --make de
but it didn't work here either. I guess that you are the first user
(apart from Hans, maybe) who has ever tried using mkiv with
non-English interface, so you might need a bit of patience to get the
problems solved.

Hi, Mocja---
Many thanks for your reply: it is very encouraging. First things

I will wait for word from you about the changes you suggest to fix (a)
and for Jérôme to fix the sync parser (c).
I tried both
. /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex
and
export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin:$PATH
in ~/.bash_profile file (that is, in Users/alancbowen)
but when I typed
texmfstart ctxtools --contextversion
it listed only those in my texlive2007 distribution---no mention of
the ConTeXtMinimals.

Hello Alan,

What follows are some queries that I will be happy to write up for
the wiki.
The aim (hope?) is to develop a set of instructions for installing
the
minimals on a Mac that a Mac user without any real knowledge of
unix (such
as myself) can follow easily. (There are a number of people
scattered around
the world who help me in producing various publications; and since
they too
are not unix savvy, I need such instructions if we are to keep our
installations functioning and up to date.)
Once the ConTeXt minimals are installed in the Applications folder
and the
user can run
\starttext
Hello world!
\stoptext
which is where the wiki (Installation>section 1.2) currently leaves
off,
there still remain a few tasks.
Specifically,
(a) getting this ConTeXt installation to recognize a personal texmf
directory
I usually put my files to texmf-local. Well, no, I actually copy
"setuptex" into "mytex" and make local modifications there, so that I
can include my own texmf trees (ugly solution). We just got a
complaint about non-existant TEXMFHOME during the conference. We took
setuptex from Hans' distribution and did not touch TEXMFHOME at all.
The problem is that Hans wanted to prevent old local files to
interefere with "standalone" tree, completely isolated from the outer
world.
We can either:
- fix setuptex, but I would like to have Hans' permission to do it
- create another "setupfriendlytex" :) and modify whatever we want
there
The fix is super-easy: change
export HOMETEXMF=/nonexist
into
export HOMETEXMF=~/.texmf
(with or without the dot - up to you; MacTeX uses ~/Library/texmf or
something similar, I think, but should check)
And then add TEXMFHOME to the list:
export TEXMF='{$TEXMFHOME,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFOS,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!
$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}'
But I need someone to tell me to do that
(b) running the various binaries (e.g., texmfstart, ctxtools) in
/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals from Terminal
You can create ~/.bash_profile and put one of those lines into it (I
suggest (a), but (b) would suffice):
a) . /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex
b) export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin:
$PATH
Then, once you start a new shell, you'll see the programs in your
shell. "/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex" assumes that you have
installed your files to that folder. Change accordingly. The minimals
are not a GUI program, so I would rather put it to some other folder,
but that's up to users. (I have the files simply in my home dir.)
The main problem is that GUI programs won't see that ~/.bash_profile,
so you need to follow the slighly off rules for TeXShop where there
are indeed quite some mistakes.
Can you please send the output of
find /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals | head -n 20
I suspect that you were setting the wrong folder during download of
minimals.
(c) establishing synchronization between PDF output and its
ConTeXt source.
Currently, it does not seem to work (with TeXShop at least)
Note, in the latest TeXShop there is
Added support for SyncTeX. SyncTeX is new synchronization
technology by
Jerome Laurens which is included in TeX Live 2008 (but not earlier
TeX
distributions). The technology is built directly into pdfTeX and
XeTeX.

Thanks, Michael! I will let you know how all this turns out. Cheers, Alan On Aug 31, 2008, at 20;05,05 , Michael Green wrote: Alan Bowen wrote: Thanks, Michael; this is very helpful. I will prepare a .bash_profile file and try it out. Where did you put your .bash_profile file? Alan .bash_profile should be saved as a text file at the top level of your user account.

Note 1: the dot in front means it won't be visible in the Finder, absent further fiddling and trickery. Note 2: if you're using TeXShop, I think that these sorts of instructions go in "engine" files. If you look at the "mac newbie" installation instructions, you'll see that the bit about "source ..." is put into an engine file. I suspect, though I don't know, that the TEXMFHOME and TEXMF lines would be incorporated in a similar way. This may be an easier route to trying this sort of thing out than using .bash_profile. It may be *much* easier if you're supporting other people. Again, I don't know. By the way, Oliver B's problem appears to be resolved. Changes in the personal texmf tree are picked up now, without further intervention by the user. Good luck!

Cleaninng up my mailbox (so I'm not sure if you still need the answer) ...
Are you using pdfTeX or LuaTeX/XeTeX? In pdfTeX you need to switch the
font (or at least change the encoding to texnansi)
\usetypescript[modern][texnansi]
\setupbodyfont[modern,10pt]
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}{\quotesingle} % or \char129
\stoptext
In new engines you can switch off tlig. If you need that, please ask
(but again - you need to be aware that you either need to create a new
font instance or switch off conversion into apostrophe globally).

I forgot to tell you that you need to either: - run that command manually - run "bash" - open a new Terminal after you do the changes You don't need to run texmfstart, it's OK to call just ctxtools, but --contextversion seems to be broken in the minimals (some broken functionality in kpathsea-mimicking library). You should be able to use context --version If context doesn't work, it means that you didn't set the PATH properly. For setting HOMETEXMF you can help yourself, though it would be nice if we provided a solution that worked out of the box. But I would like to get a confirmation from Hans that it's OK to do that.

I finally got myself to understand some lua code. I think the problem is that lua tables start counting from 1 not 0, getting the value of key 0 from code table will give nil while 1 will give the value of 0 (first key), so the solution would be incrementing n by 1 in: local function do_alphabetic(n,max,chr) n = n + 1 -- to get the correct key if n > max then do_alphabetic(floor((n-1)/max),max,chr) n = (n-1)%max+1 end characters.flush(chr(n)) end This does work for the case of Arabic, but I don't know about others (especially greek and slovenian which look different) Now, I think I discovered another bug (or feature?), the function will ignore any zeros at the left which isn't what one expects. -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localizer and member of Arabeyes.org team --- core-con.lua~ 2008-09-01 19:24:44.0 +0200 +++ core-con.lua 2008-09-01 19:23:31.0 +0200 @@ -103,6 +103,7 @@ end local function do_alphabetic(n,max,chr) +n = n + 1 -- to get the correct key if n > max then do_alphabetic(floor((n-1)/max),max,chr) n = (n-1)%max+1 signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

I probably told you wrong, but:
1.) you have HOMETEXMF first and then TEXMFHOME: these need to be equal
2.) unless you are following (3), don't modify the file in texmf/, but create
/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-local/web2c/texmf.cnf
instead, else the file will be overwritten at first update
3.) even then I'm not completely sure, but I guess that environmental
variables override settings in texmf.cnf, so you either need to
a) modify setuptex (rename it and run the renamed file instead of setuptex)
b) only export PATH and not run setuptex at all; in that case values
from texmf.cnf will be used
- maybe you need to run "mktexlsr" or "luatools --generate"

[NTG-context] "Float within a frame" challenge
Hi,
I am trying to accomplish the following layout with ConTeXt:
- An icon and a descriptive text should be contained together in a
separate frame
- The frame should be centered and have a special background color
- Within the frame, the icon should be placed to the upper left.
- A descriptive text should "flow" around the icon within the frame,
first part to the right and then below the icon.
I have tried the following construct:
%--
\startframedtext
\placefigure[left]{none}{\externalfigure[danger]}
The textual description of the icon comes here. It should ideally flow to
the right of
the figure within the frame, but the figure actually becomes behind the
text.
\stopframedtext
%--
The problem here is that the icon and text is placed on top of each other.
When removing the frame (\startframedtext command), the placement of the
figure and the text works OK, but I don't get a frame then of course.
I have studied the "It's in the details" document which explains a great
deal about float's, but I haven't found anything covering the frame issue.
Is the "startframedtext" the wrong command to use? All hints or suggestions
(like references to other tutorials) are very welcome.
Best regards,
Tommy Jensen

OK. One quick reply just to see if I am on track.
I have created /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-local/web2c/
texmf.cnf
where texmf.cnf now has
export HOMETEXMF=~/Library/texmf
export TEXMF='{$HOMETEXMF,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFOS,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!
I have run
mktexlsr
luatools --generate
And still no luck, I am sorry to say. Perhaps I have misunderstood
your remarks about HOMETEXMF and TEXMFHOME.

Sorry - I thought that the issue has been fixed, but it hasn't. So you need source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex only source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex does not suffice. It does on Windows, but apparently there's no way to figure out location of the sourced script under linux (or at least I don't know any).

(hopefully the line continues ...)
The lines you have written here belong to "setuptex", not to
texmf.cnf. The syntax for setuptex is slightly different.
HOMETEXMF = ~/Library/texmf
# single line
TEXMF =
{$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFPROJECT,!!$TEXMFFONTS,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}
But try putting
export HOMETEXMF=~/Library/texmf
# single line
export
TEXMF='{$HOMETEXMF,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFOS,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}'
into setuptex (replace the old variables). The problem is that if you
adapt texmf.cnf only, you still override those settings with setuptex.
There is one thing that you could try (I never use TeXShop, but
there's a change that it works):
~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/ConTeXt-pdfTeX.engine
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel:$PATH
texexec "$1"
~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/ConTeXt-luaTeX.engine
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel:$PATH
export TEXMFCACHE=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-cache
context "$1"
~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/ConTeXt-XeTeX.engine
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel:$PATH
texexec --xtx "$1"
(sorry for two different proposals - I should probably only send you a
single one)

The text is however blue. \stoptextbackground \stoptext %- The background of the rendered text is always white, independent of the backgroundcolor parameter. The font color is however OK (blue). All other samples I have tried from "details.pdf" behaves similarly - no background color and no frame/frame color. I am using the latest complete standalone Windows version of Context.

I probably told you wrong, but:
1.) you have HOMETEXMF first and then TEXMFHOME: these need to be
equal
2.) unless you are following (3), don't modify the file in texmf/,
but create
/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-local/web2c/texmf.cnf

Shouldn't that be

(Note the /bin at the end of the path, and same for all commands below).

For setting HOMETEXMF you can help yourself, though it would be

if we provided a solution that worked out of the box. But I would

to get a confirmation from Hans that it's OK to do that.
I have modified the texmf.cnf in
./Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf/web2c with the lines
export HOMETEXMF=~/Library/texmf
export
TEXMF='{$TEXMFHOME,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFOS,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!
$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}'
but ConTeXt still does not find my personal texmf folder
I probably told you wrong, but:
1.) you have HOMETEXMF first and then TEXMFHOME: these need to be
equal
2.) unless you are following (3), don't modify the file in texmf/,
but create
/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-local/web2c/texmf.cnf
instead, else the file will be overwritten at first update
3.) even then I'm not completely sure, but I guess that
environmental
variables override settings in texmf.cnf, so you either need to
a) modify setuptex (rename it and run the renamed file instead of
setuptex)
b) only export PATH and not run setuptex at all; in that case values
from texmf.cnf will be used
- maybe you need to run "mktexlsr" or "luatools --generate"
OK. One quick reply just to see if I am on track.
I have created /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-local/web2c/
texmf.cnf
where texmf.cnf now has
export HOMETEXMF=~/Library/texmf
export TEXMF='{$HOMETEXMF,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFOS,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!
(hopefully the line continues ...)
The lines you have written here belong to "setuptex", not to
texmf.cnf. The syntax for setuptex is slightly different.
HOMETEXMF = ~/Library/texmf
# single line
TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFPROJECT,!!$TEXMFFONTS,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!
$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}
But try putting
export HOMETEXMF=~/Library/texmf
# single line
export TEXMF='{$HOMETEXMF,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFOS,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!
$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}'
into setuptex (replace the old variables). The problem is that if you
adapt texmf.cnf only, you still override those settings with setuptex.
There is one thing that you could try (I never use TeXShop, but
there's a change that it works):
~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/ConTeXt-pdfTeX.engine
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel:$PATH
texexec "$1"
Done. The “Hello world” file processes but using my texlive 2007
distribution.

seems odd. I do not use XeTeX but I am guessing that this version is
also in my Texlive 2007 distribution too.
I do like the idea of defining different engines for pdftex and
luatex, since it address one of my earlier queries about switching
between the two with the minimals.
More tomorrow.
Warm thanks. Alan
(sorry for two different proposals - I should probably only send you a
single one)

Re: [NTG-context] Installing ConTeXt Minimals on a Mac
Mocja---Sorry! I should have added that with the ConTeXt-pdftex.engine and minimals now see my personal texmf too. So it is possible to get the desired outcome without changing setuptex. Still, I will test out your first proposal tomorrow and report. Cheers x 3. And many thanks.
