All ok, I didn't meant that you must switch to minimals . In Ubuntu I have put minimals under /opt/luatex/minimals (and minimals-beta in /opt/luatex/minimals-beta) . They are unrelated with package system, texlive2007, texlive2008 and so on ; also installing/updating minimals is easy (at least on ubuntu) apart luatex version (but it's not really a problem) . I run every tests under minimals and minimals-beta . If they work, I assume minimals / minimals-beta are OK . Your test works on my minimals, so (my) minimals are OK. So if you install minimals /minimals-beta you can even say what is wrong in your packaging (if something is wrong: maybe you have mixed files) . I feel good with ubuntu, but for TeX related stuff I prefear manual installation .

Re: [NTG-context] French punctuation : tests
2008/9/29 Peter Münster [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Thu, Sep 25 2008, Olivier Guéry wrote: * There should't be space between two sign. Test 2 Hello Olivier, IMHO, frenchpunctuation should just care about the additional spaces before some punctuation signs, that are the French typographic mainstream. Neither more, nor less. Two or three signs like !!! are anyway rare exceptions and perhaps grammatically even not allowed. For such exceptions one can use for example \string!, if no space is wanted. They are not allowed for « strict » french. But if you type a conversation, you can have them. Think about the usage Celine made of the punctuation. So the rules is not : there's a space before « ! ». But there's a space befor « ! » if the signe before is not punctuation. But i understand your point of view. In fact such a rule is so unknow and rare that I thinked it's better to « hard-coded » it. I would like to see the rules as simple as this: - before :, ;, ?, ! and » add some tiny nobreakspace (for example half an inter-word space and stretchable) The rule is a bit more complicated for the « : ». My hope was the fact that if TeX is able to have strict rules, let use them ! - if the author has already added a space (or nbsp) character before such sign, gobble it and use the tiny nbsp - same thing after « Yes you're probably right. But it's hard to determine what is juste taste or what is rules. * The space before the footnote sign is too big (it's clearer with othe fonts). Test 4 For me, no special treatment should be triggered with frenchpunctuation or \language[fr]. Footnote signs are just a matter of taste and style. I don't know rules in other languages but in french the footnote sign is before ponctuation, so having big space before/after is not clean. If i find the setting for doing this, i'll use it :D. And probably other french people too. But a page on the wiki is maybe enough. \mainlanguage [fr] \language[fr] \setcharacterspacing [frenchpunctuation] Perhaps, it would make sense, to make one test file for \mainlanguage[fr] and another another one for \setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] ? Ok, result is join. Not shure it's the good syntax (and test n°4 failed to compile, but it can be my instalation). 1 The « ; » signs shouldn't be at the beginning of a line, there must be space before all sign (look at the rules here : http://wiki.contextgarden.net/frenchpunctuation) :\crlf To test, that the space is not breakable, one can use: \start \hsize1pt bla: bla : bla : bla~: bla? bla ? bla ? bla~? bla! bla ! bla ! bla~! bla; bla ; bla ; bla~; «bla» « bla » « bla » «~bla~»\par \stop Thanks a lot.

Re: [NTG-context] mplib errors
Taco, So, I guess it would make sense to test the compiler directly: what is the most basic way to trigger mplib from a plain tex file directly run through LuaTeX (i.e. the equivalent of the startMPgraphic if any? (And this might provide some more information on what's going on.) Just look at mlib-run.lua from the context distribution, it should be clear enough. Thanks for the pointer. I played a bit with pdfluatex directly which seems to work. (I'm not to the point of producing figures, because I would have to rebuild all the functions that are located in mlib-run.lua and the luatexref-t.tex does not give straightforward example of how the mplib module should be used, it only describes the functions API. Btw: could you add in the doc a simple example of how to set up an mplib instance (loading the format file) and typesetting a minimal graphic, and then use it from within plain TeX for instance; this is transparent to conTeXt users since there are files like mlib-run.lua but not easy for plain TeX users :P And I'm not advocating the use of plain TeX, I'm a converted conTeXt user since 2003, but this will help user understand (a bit) how things work behind the scene.)

Hi Wolfgang,
I guess you are referring to mkii features. It seems that formatting
in verbatim doesn't work in mkiv yet, or did I miss out something?
None of the wiki verbatim examples worked for me.

[NTG-context] relative file locations when compiling from different folders (in projects)
Hello,
I'm just wondering if there's some recipe about how to simplify the
work when icluding other files and images in projects, when one is
compiling from different folders.
For example:
articles/08/01/art-one.tex (product)
articles/08/01/art-two.tex (product)
articles/08/02/art-three.tex (product)
articles/08/02/art-four.tex (product)
articles/08/magazine_2008.tex (product)
components/funny.tex (component)
img/08/01/img-1.png
img/08/01/img-2.png
img/08/01/img-3.png
img/08/02/img-2.png
magazine_all.tex (project)
layout.tex (environment)
If I do
cd articles/08/01
texexec art-one
then images are expected to be set up as ../../../img/08/01 and if I
need to \input somefile from the project (like funny.tex), even if
that's a component, I need to provide some explicit location.
But then I would want to compile
cd articles/08
texexec magazine_2008
and then all relative paths break, even when specified in subfolders.
Now I would need to set up ../../img/08/01 as image directory. Even
though the article provides relative path, that path is now relative
to the document I compile one folder lower in hierarchy, not to the
document that defines the relative path (which is a bit weird, but I
understad why it is so).
Also ... is there some elegant way to include funny.tex from an
article, so that it will work both in article and magazine? (I'm
thinking about putting \def\projectroot{../../} at the top of files,
but that's a bit ugly.)
I can solve the problem in my own ways with some weird macros, like
the ones that set image directory to
directory={../../../img/08/01,../../img/08/01,img/08/01} at the top
of every article file, but my solutions are all a bit ugly. (Another
thing is that it needs to be flexible enough, so that I don't need to
change every single article in case that I decide to move images or
articles to another location in project.)
If some elegance exists to solve that, I would welcome any hints or
suggestions. But as I said: it's all solvable in one way or another,
so this is just a low-priority request for sharing your ideas. I'm
posting this because I would almost bet that there's some one-liner to
solve it all :) :) :)
Thanks,
Mojca

However, $ texmfstart texexec --help Did not work. What am I missing? If I recall I'll need to do: $ texmfstart texexec --make --all Or some such thing.

Re: [NTG-context] Listings (was: Experience on writing a thesis with MKIV)
Hi,
Thanks for the pointers. It seems that the syntax-highlighter only
need supply function buffers.visualizers.mp.flush_line_(), which
returns a buffer containing the typesetting commands. Will try playing
with it.
At the moment, I am looking for the feature with
\setuptyping[option=commands]. I saw \mksetupcommandsintype defined,
and buffers.visualizers.enableescape = true set in core-ver.mkiv,
but it isn't handled in the default visualizer.

Re: [NTG-context] Miktex
Mojca, I a hopeless mac user at home now. I used to be pretty good with miktex, even working with hans to test the settings that now exist in the texexec.rme file, back in the days when we made that an .ini file in Miktex. But no longer. It's our school machines I am trying to configure, PC's with Windows XP. I got to a point today where I selected the formats tab in the Miktex Settings gui, and tried to build cont-en there. It objected that it could not find cont-en.ini in tex/something or other so I tried moving cont-en.ini from the context distribution to tex/ something or other and updating the filename database to no avail. I'll give your idea of no spaces a try tomorrow. Meanwhile if you can think of anything less drastic, as I have to do this on 20 different machines, Thanks so much. David.
