[NTG-context] spaces in file names
I would like to include a file with spaces in its name.
Clearly it does not work using: \input /Users/me/dir with spaces/file
I can use something like:
\def\DataDirectory#1{\def\DATADIRECTORY{#1/}} % in reality coping
with empty #1
\DataDirectory{/Users/me/dir with spaces}
\def\Input#1{\input \DATADIRECTORY#1}
and then that file is read.
When however I want to set this directory with
\setupexternalfigures[directory=\DATADIRECTORY]
it does not find the picture file there.
How can I accomplish the setup? Do I miss something? Using
contextbeta, if that makes a difference.

Tried it but NO. That didn't work. Without a space in the directory
name I can find the picture. But as soon as a space gets in the
directory name then the picture file is not found.

Because I want to keep all files (aif, description, notes, cd-cover,
pictures) pertaining to a certain piece together in one directory.
I did grep for the definition of \setupexternalfigures but could not
find it in the sources. Where is it? Perhaps I can spot the difficulty
there. Or, it might be in the use that /externalfigure makes of it.
Please point to the definitions of both, that I can have a look.

.. or try to use a link (without spaces) to the source directory.
e.g. a link named 'MadisonSquareGarden', which points to the original

Hi Hans,

Yes, I knew that. Adding the full path inside the \externalfigure
works. But I would like to access picture files by separately
adressing directory and filename, not combining them explicitely.
\setupexternalfigures[directory=..] was made for this. The annoying
thing is that \setupexternalfigures and \externalfigure apparently do
not work seamlessly together.
%
\starttext
\input exercise english.tex
\page
\externalfigure[pictures folder/old friend.jpg]
[maxwidth=3cm,maxheight=4cm,frame=on]
\stoptext
%%
My images are in the « folder » or directory « pictures folder » and
my file is called « old friend.jpg », so the command \externalfigure
is clever enough (not surprising from an old ConTeXt command…) and
doesn't need any double quotes.
However for an \input file I have to say « \input exercise
english.tex ».
Actually in general I avoid to have spaces in my file names, but I
just tried the above in order to understand your question.

Re: [NTG-context] spaces in file names
Thanks Hans. That does the trick. Odd by the way, that so many people apparently refrain from using spaces in directory and file names, because this did not surface earlier. It can make things a lot more readable. The habit of avoiding spaces is probably a holdover from old times where OS's were much more restrictive in filenaming. I reckon the next beta will contain this patch, so that I don't have to go through patching hassles when installing a new version.

Yes, I knew that. Adding the full path inside the \externalfigure works. But I would like to access picture files by separately adressing directory and filename, not combining them explicitely. \setupexternalfigures[directory=..] was made for this. The annoying thing is that \setupexternalfigures and \externalfigure apparently do not work seamlessly together. well, it's not deliberately .. just that i never use paths with spaces in tex workflows so it never got tested in grph-inc.lua patch the gmatch pattern: if h[iv[global]] then for s in gmatch(pathlist,,* *([^,]+)) do if not table.contains(t,s) then t[#t+1] = s end end end - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

It can make things a lot more readable. The habit of avoiding spaces is probably a holdover from old times where OS's were much more restrictive in filenaming. I prefer to work with my computer, not against it. Whenever you want to script something or do something remotely, spaces in file names give you nothing but grief. And I don't think My Stuff is so much more readable than My-Stuff or My_Stuff or ... But to each their own, I guess, if you think that spaces in filenames are so 2010 and avoiding them old hat. also, as nowadays guis can use proportional fonts, it's easy to oversee two spaces in a row which makes debugging a pain esp when we get graphics from third parties we need to be pretty aware of inconsistency in - upper/lowercase (and mixed) - suffixes - multiple spaces - underscores vs hyphens the problem being that in gui apps one just clicks on a (potentially messy) name but in automated flows one needs to be exact.

well,
directory=a, b, c
should be
directory={a, b, c}
or when b, c is a path
directory={a, {b, c}}
you can try
if h[iv[global]] then
for _, s in ipairs(aux.settings_to_array(pathlist)) do
if not table.contains(t,s) then
t[#t+1] = s
end
end

ok, i can fix that but there is a problem ...
if no suffix is given, the quality list is followed and the first

which gives a home page which is no pdf of course and luatex does not

as i don't want to complicate the lookup mechanism even more, i will not
catch this and users can best use a suffix when using an url

Does it make sense to add the look-up to \usemodule?
For example, the following works:
\input
http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex
But it will be nice if I could also do
\usemodule[http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex]
or
\usemodule[http:///t-cut-n-paste] % no .tex
or (not really serious here)
\usemodule[http:// ...][t-cut-n-paste] % like \usemodule[p][name] etc.
Of course, this will only work for moudles that provide only one file.

Just small note: in POSIX (e.g. Linux) you could use any char in file or directory name expect '/' and '\0'. Windows is more restricted (why nowadays?) on char in file and directory names (not ':' for example). Now imagine what should developers do in order to maintain software for these different (in sense of names) systems?
