lots of things that don't work.
The trouble is, I don't know if it's just me, or whether I need to go back

2) References to footnotes appear as '??' inside

\stoplocalfootnotes
3) References to sections are repeated (e.g. reference to section 1 appears
as '11' or ref to section 1.1 appears as '1.11.1')
\section[sec:one]{Section one}
It was in \in{section}[sec:one].
4) \digits command falls over at periods or commas with "\textfont1 is

\digits{1.6}
5) \infull command does not work for abbreviations: falls over with
"Missing } inserted."
\abbreviation {KF} {Kalman filter}

[NTG-context] Example of passing unexpanded text between \startfoo ... \stopfoo into Lua?
Hi Hans and others,
I've been searching the mailing list and source code for one or more
examples of passing unexpanded text appearing between a \startfoo ...
\stopfoo block into Lua, but without luck. Is there such an example you
could point me to?
A colleague and I are experimenting with strategies to implement a literate
programming module for ConTeXt, and we'd like to have something like
\startcodeblock[language=c,file=foo.c, etc.][blockname]
// This is the main routine...
int main()
{
return 0;
}
\stopcodeblock
We would appreciate any thoughts you have about how to implement such a
module.
Thanks,
Kevin

Same thing here with 1,3,4,5.
2 works fine.
I've noticed also 3 problems since I switched to MKIV:
a) Floatcaptions are no longer placed:
\externalfigure[dummy]
\placefloatcaption[figure]{blabla}
b) \start...\stopregister results in an error:
hmmpf\startregister[index][identifier]{Hmmpf}\page[yes]
\dorecurse{2}{hmmpf\page[yes]}
hmmpf\stopregister[index][identifier]\page[yes]
\placeregister[index][compress=no]
c) I'm not able to build caption numbers with the chapter number as prefix:
I want for example "Fig. 2.6" where "2" is the chapter number and "6"
the figure number by chapter. I tried all the options I found for
setupcaptions (at least I think so), but I dont get the chapter number
in the caption.

No. I am using the minimals from 2009.05.26, and asana math works fine.
Are you using the latest version of the font from

This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.41.0-2009061016

If this is a showstopper, then a fallback will have to do. Have any of

Basic greek should work in math. I cannot get the latest minimals right
now (slow internet connection), but px math and lm math use the same code
to generate virtual fonts, so px math should work in the latest minimals.

You can test these formulas in px-math:

[NTG-context] On creating my own fonts
I've been doing some searching on how to create my own fonts. If
possible, I would like to be able to write my own program to
at least draw glyphs, even if I have to resort to other tools
to describe hinting, kerning and ligatures.
My current knowledge is this. I read that OpenType fonts are
actually Type 1 fonts embedded in an archive. So I used this
't1disasm' tool I found after wikipedia article on postscript
fonts and used it to decode one of ConTeXt minimal distribution
font file into a nice to read text file that looks like the
transcript below, and it seems to be something I could easily
understand if I find a reference.
I would like to ask you if I'm in the proper direction. There
are some issues I can't understand, like how can I make OpenType
fonts out of Type 1 fonts when the later are supposed to only
contain 256 characters (aren't they?). Or how to understand
this text file format so I can write my own glyphs.
Do you think I'm in the right direction. Do you think there's
an easier or better way if I want to create fonts without
using existing graphical tools?
Thanks,
Maurício

I think Hans has plan to convert the MKII scripts to Lua language. Anyway, I highly respect the ConTeXt and LuaTeX's work. But if Taco and Hans can : - use a proper regexp library (like lrexlib?), not the silly lpeg - make font loading faster (by massive fontforge change or replace it with ft2+libotf. we need more efficient solution esp for big fonts) - support TeX line-break-like page break - support arbitrary text-flow maybe via mplib (example: The ultimate (?) float problem + How could a typesetting system be today? on mailing list ) - make processing conditional-aware (see "two newbie questions about conditional processing" on the mailing list) - fix the bug of focus=standard - more powerful multi columns (maybe not through gird typesetting?) - full support of xslt:) Things might be a lot better... > ___ > 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 > ___ > > ___ 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 ___
Re: [NTG-context] math and palatino

Basic greek should work in math. I cannot get the latest minimals right

Using the predefined
[mm] [math] [palatino]
You can test these formulas in px-math:
\starttext
\startformula
Y=AK^{\alpha{}}L^{1-\alpha{}} \eqno(1)
\stopformula
\startformula
y-l=a+\alpha(k-l) \eqno(2)
\stopformula
\startformula
a = (y-l) - \alpha{} (k-l) \eqno(3)
\stopformula
\startformula
A = (3-7)-(0.3) (5-3) = 3.4
\stopformula
\alpha{}
\stoptext
I see. There is indeed something wrong with both px-math and tx-math, but
I cannot see why it is behaving differently. In math-vfu.lua, if you
replace pxmi.tfm with lmmi10.tfm and regenerate formats, greek in math
works, so it is something specific with the font.
Hans, Taco: Any idea what is happening here? Minimal test file
\usetypescript[palatino] \setupbodyfont[palatino]
\starttext $\alpha \beta$ \stoptext
Idris: For greek outside the math mode, you should use \greekalpha etc,
which works with palatino.

PEG are not silly at all. PEG *include* regex, but not viceversa,
and it seems to have the same power of CFG, so you can build a parser for
pratically anything
(and you can not do this with regex) .
Perhaps the reverse sentence has more sense: drop the "silly" (?) regex, use
the new peg.
For what I know the reverse side of lpeg is that a file must be loaded in
memory completly.
- more powerful multi columns (maybe not through gird typesetting?)

Maybe columnset can do more, or we need more examples from hans .

why not xquery too? Are mkiv supposed to be a full xml processor ?
A bit of xslt can be done with lpeg (and not regex),
but usually it's better to prepare a xml to typeset before processing with
mkiv
("use the right tool for the right task").

Things are now a lot better than before ,IMMO .
