I had the same error. I am on linux-64 and the luatex binary in
linux-64/bin did not have the execute permission set. So the wrong luatex
was being used.
But I use mtx-update directly, so do not know if this is the same reason
for the error in the minimals.

Re: [NTG-context] Animations (again, but different)
Hi, with context version 2010.11.12 18:22, I get much
better results now. Thanks!

these things.

Thank's for your example! But I'm sorry to say, I didn't get it.
When I run context on it, it results in a 2x2 matrix of pictures.
Two of them show some reaction (change the color somewhat)
when I click on them. (the cows don't). That's all.
Maybe it has to with the following lines in the log file:
...
interaction : active
references : unknown reference [][VideLayer{1}]
references : unknown reference [][VideLayer{2}]
references : unknown reference [][VideLayer{3}]
references : unknown reference [][VideLayer{4}]
...
I tried the following example from the Wiki:
===
\defineproperty[my-hasitations][layer][state=stop]
\startproperty[my-hasitations]
To \ConTeXt\ or not to \ConTeXt?
\stopproperty
\button{Show Decision}[VideLayer{my-hasitations}]
\button{Hide Decision}[HideLayer{my-hasitations}]
\button{Toggle Decision}[ToggleLayer{my-hasitations}]
This produces the analogous messages for these three buttons.
My Context Version - MTXrun | current version: 2010.11.03 19:42
My LuaTeX Version - This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.63.0-2010090921

I could confirm that there is the problem with context minimal
installation on linux-64. The cause of the problem is missing permission
for executable.
Currently I could build the formats only if I split the actions: update
and make.
P.S. To ensure that the same problem would not arise in future the
'update' and 'make' procedures should be splitted and between them 'chmod
+x bin/texlua tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/luatex' (texmf-$platform) is
inserted.

[NTG-context] why nil argument
In transforming dates through a Lua-call I get a nil error I do not understand.
The luatex code =
\startluacode
hvdm = hvdm or {}
require lpeg
-- Transform date in Lua from mmdd to dd-mm- with checks
hvdm.day = lpeg.R(02) * lpeg.R(09) + lpeg.P(30) + lpeg.P(31) -

hvdm.month = lpeg.P(0) * lpeg.R(19) + lpeg.P(10) + lpeg.P(11) +
lpeg.P(12)
hvdm.year = lpeg.R(12) * lpeg.R(09) * lpeg.R(09) * lpeg.R(09)
hvdm.date = lpeg.C(hvdm.year) * lpeg.C(hvdm.month) * lpeg.C(hvdm.day) *
-1 / %3-%2-%1
\stopluacode
\def\FormatDate#1{\ctxlua{tex.print(tostring(hvdm.date:match(#1)))}}
Calling \FormatDate(1) is OK although it returns nil (correct would be #1 =
20101114
Calling \FormatDate(A) is not OK with the error:
! LuaTeX error main ctx instance:1: bad argument #1 to 'match' (string
expected, got nil)
stack traceback:
[C]: in function 'match'
main ctx instance:1: in main chunk.
It is no problem if the function returns the string nil from tostring() but
an error like this I would like to avoid.

Re: [NTG-context] XSL-FO to PDF?
XSLT is fully adapted to XML/XML(fo or other target schema) since it was the design basis… My experience is: − good xslt is (relatively) easy to design as soon as you master the underlying data model − xsltproc is REALLY REALLY fast for xslt 1 processing − if you want something smarter, go for java with saxon/xerces, which is performant too… I'm the devil's advocate but what's your need to use ConTeXt. I have not read all your threads but if you just need: − to produce pdfs from xml data − without advanced typesettings you could use xslt to produce DocBook 5 xml file, include them using xi:include href=./data/stuff.xml/, configure your layout with an intermediate xslt + Fo xml config… Once more, it depends on your original ecosystem and constraints… If you provide a use case, I should provide a sample if you don't need it within a couple of hours (but a couple of days)… Best regards, Renaud Le 14/11/2010 22:36, Peter Davis a écrit : On Sun, Nov 14, 2010 at 4:31 PM, Hans Hagen pra...@wxs.nl wrote: On 13-11-2010 4:14, Peter Davis wrote: On 11/13/10 6:03 AM, Renaud AUBIN wrote: Uh ?

Hi folks, For imormation, I'm curently rewritting the pret-xml.lua file pointed on that list previously… So don't miss too much time to review!

[NTG-context] The visual counter module
Hi, This is to announce an alpha release of the visual counter module. See http://randomdeterminism.wordpress.com/2010/11/14/visualcounter-module/ for some examples, in particular http://randomdeterminism.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/theorem.pdf The idea is to display a counter visually, in the same spirit as interactions bars. There is no support for interaction, but, on the plus sides, these work for any conter, not just the page counter. The idea of the module comes from the counters designed by Thomas as part of the simpleslides module. The module only works with MkIV because I am using the new namespace code. So MkII support is unlikely. Anyone else interested in such counters?

Re: [NTG-context] XSL-FO to PDF?
Hi, Renaud, In a nutshell, my use is a form of database publishing from two XML files. The first file is *like* XSL-FO, but also contains some namespaced constructs. This XML file is the page template ... it represents the layout, the static portions of the page, and the locations where various live data should get plugged in. The second XML contains the live data, extracted from a database. There might be thousands or tens of thousands of records of information to publish. So for each main element in the live data file, we use the template file, but plug in the live data and generate a beautiful, formatted document. The data may contain plain text, text with some formatting, and references to graphics and images in various formats. It definitely needs to support advanced typesetting (beautiful paragraphs, tracking and kerning, ligatures, multiple languages, etc.). It needs to support full color (mostly CMYK), most widely used fonts (T1, TT/OT, CID, etc.) It also needs to produce finished pages at a rate of thousands or tens of thousands of pages per minute. TeX has the features I want, but I'm still trying to determine the best way to use it. ConTeXt is particularly attractive for its built-in XML support, simplefonts support, pdfTeX support and minimals packaging, among other things. -pd On 11/14/2010 5:48 PM, Renaud AUBIN wrote: XSLT is fully adapted to XML/XML(fo or other target schema) since it was the design basis… My experience is: − good xslt is (relatively) easy to design as soon as you master the underlying data model − xsltproc is REALLY REALLY fast for xslt 1 processing − if you want something smarter, go for java with saxon/xerces, which is performant too… I'm the devil's advocate but what's your need to use ConTeXt.

[NTG-context] column breaks and TABLE
Hi all,
with natural tables I can’t seem to get column breaks right.
Example:
··8·
\setuppapersize[A5][A5]
\definecolumnset[three][n=3]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[three]
\dorecurse{5}{
\subject{Test nr. \recurselevel}
Some paragraph.\par
\penalty1 % comment me to get even footer; well, sort of …
\bTABLE[split=yes]
\bTABLEbody
\dorecurse{80}{
\bTR\bTC Nr.\eTC\bTC\recurselevel\eTC\eTR
}
\eTABLEbody
\eTABLE
Text after.\par\column
}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
··8·
The crude prevention of a column break before the table appears
to cause the first column to extend into the footer. However,
without the ‘\penalty’ the table will always appear on a new
column -- not looking well if there’s not much to typeset besides
the table itself.
Is there a way to get the best of both worlds: an even footer
without a break before the table?
I’d be grateful for any hints or suggestions, Philipp
