Replace \setuplist with \definelist, before you use a list you should create it.

[NTG-context] KOMA-srcartcl Type Area: How to count header and footer to text area?
Dear ConTeXt folks,
having heard nice things about the KOMA script type area I wanted to use
it too and tried out the example in the Wiki [1].
% Set binding correction value (mode=BCOR turns it on).
\doifmodeelse{BCOR}{\def\bindingcorr{3mm}}{\def\bindingcorr{0pt}}
% Set visible page width.
\newdimen\PageWidth
\PageWidth=\dimexpr(\paperwidth-\bindingcorr)
% Determine the paper aspect ratio.
\edef\Ratio{\withoutpt{\the\dimexpr(2\paperheight/(\PageWidth/32768))}}
% Set the textarea width to 2.6 alphabets.
\setbox\scratchbox\hbox{\dorecurse{26}{\character\recurselevel}}
\newdimen\Width \Width=\dimexpr(2.6\wd\scratchbox)
% Set the textarea height proportional to the width.
\newdimen\Height \Height=\dimexpr(\Ratio\Width)
% Set the margin/gutter widths to be equal on a full spread.
\newdimen\Back
\doifmodeelse{oneside}
{\Back=\dimexpr(((\PageWidth - \Width) / 2) + \bindingcorr)}
{\Back=\dimexpr(((\PageWidth - \Width) / 3) + \bindingcorr)}
% Set the top and bottom margins in a 1:2 ratio, ignoring headers.
\edef\Top{\the\dimexpr((\paperheight - \Height) / 3 - 3\lineheight)}
% Redefine \Height to include header and footer space.
\Height=\dimexpr(\Height + 8\lineheight)
% Set up the page layout using the calculated parameters.
\setuplayout[
backspace=\the\Back,
height=\the\Height,
width=\the\Width,
header=2\lineheight,
headerdistance=\lineheight,
footer=2\lineheight,
footerdistance=3\lineheight,
topspace=\Top]
\starttext
\framed[width=\textwidth,height=\textheight]{}
\stoptext
I only want to add a page number to the footer [3] and I do not want to
use any header [2, and ConTeXt manual]. Therefore I set
\setupheader[][state=none]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided, location={footer}]
\enablemode[BCOR]
According to the KOMA-Script manual [4] having just a page number in the
footer it should be counted as belonging to the margin. The only way I
found out to achieve that was setting `\footdistance=0`.
Is that the “correct” way to comply with the KOMA-Script type area
recommendation?
Please find the adapted example attached.
Thanks,
Paul

It works, if I use absolute values for font size and vertical offset,
like
\def\Initial{\DroppedCaps%
{\color[red]} {Serif} {36pt} {3pt} {28pt} {3}}
I also tried \setupinitial / \placeinitial like below; I got my
defined font, but only ever in base font size.
%\definefontsynonym[Initial][WieynkInitialen]
\setupinitial[font=WieynkInitialen,n=3,state=start,command=\Initial] %
I also tried \NiceDroppedCaps and \LineDroppedCaps that I found in the
sources, but didn’t get further.
So, what’s the preferred way to get dropped capitals / initials?
I’d like to wikify that, since it seems nowhere documented.

[NTG-context] How to create horizontal line for signature?
Dear ConTeXt folks,
sometimes you need to insert a line for signature. I could not find
anything usefull especially `\underbar{\hspace[10*\big]}` [2] did not
work. I ended up abusing `\framed` [3].
\starttext
\startstandardmakeup[align=right]
Alles rechtens. Everything is fine and nobody cheated.
\blank[medium]
London, den 28.\,June 2011
\blank[3*big]
\framed[width=5cm, frame=off, topframe=on]{\small John Doe}
\stopstandardmakeup
\stoptext
The down side is, that its widths is not perfectly aligned with the
location and date.
I guess there is something simpler to do it. I looked at Wolfgang’s
letter module but could not figure out how it is done there.
Something like the examples posted for LaTeX on Stack Exchange [3] for
ConTeXt would be nice.
Thanks,
Paul

As always thank you so much for the fast answer. I am always a bit

Hmm, I did not realize that dropped caps were still supported in MkIV base
so I've been using
\usemodule[lettrine]
which also lets you set not only dropped caps but the next couple of words
or so in another font -- such as small caps.
Hans: Does the \setupinitial also allow to set the words immediately after
in \sc etc?
Henning: Maybe you can try lettrines as well and compare them, see which
works best for what you're trying to do ... Here is a sample for you to
play with

Hi, I uploaded a new beta. This one is really beta so don't update if you have a critical workflow (or make a copy).

By the way the output differs with the latest beta in comparison with the
latest experimental.
Hans changed part of the \setuplayout code in the last betas (there are more
than you can see in the ctx suite).
When context checks the layout (happens with \starttext and when it starts a
new page) it test for the following defined layouts:
• “pagenumber”
• “-pagenumber”
• “last” (is only used for the last page of the document)
• “first” (is only used for the first page of the document)
• “unknown”
• “current”
• “odd” and “even” (used for left and right pages)
All entries in this list are reserved names but you can also define your own
layout but in this case
you have to enable it with \setuplayout[name].
One of the new features in MkIV is that layout parameters can be inherited,
e.g. when
you define a layout with the name “one” {\definelayout[one][..,..=..,..]) and
another one with
the name two (\definelayout[two][one][..,..=..,..]) this will take the values
from one of there
are nothing set for a value from one and when there is also nothing set for one
the global
values are used (\setuplayout[..,..=..,..]).

[NTG-context] gnuplot module: `option=monochrome` does not work.
Dear ConTeXt folks,
I want to create monochrome plots, but `option=monochrome` is ignored.
\usemodule[gnuplot]
\setupGNUPLOT[terminal=context,option=monochrome]
\startGNUPLOTscript[pi]
plot pi t '$π = \ctxlua{context(math.pi)}$'
\stopGNUPLOTscript
\starttext
\useGNUPLOTgraphic[pi]
\blank
\CONTEXT\ \contextmark\ \contextversion
\stoptext
Is that the correct way to enable monochrome output? Looking at the Wiki
page [1] it should be something like the above. Am I doing something
wrong?
Thanks,
Paul

By the way the output differs with the latest beta in comparison with the
latest experimental.
Hans changed part of the \setuplayout code in the last betas (there are more
than you can see in the ctx suite).
When context checks the layout (happens with \starttext and when it starts a
new page) it test for the following defined layouts:
• “pagenumber”
• “-pagenumber”
• “last” (is only used for the last page of the document)
• “first” (is only used for the first page of the document)
• “unknown”
• “current”
• “odd” and “even” (used for left and right pages)
All entries in this list are reserved names but you can also define your own
layout but in this case
you have to enable it with \setuplayout[name].
One of the new features in MkIV is that layout parameters can be inherited,
e.g. when
you define a layout with the name “one” {\definelayout[one][..,..=..,..]) and
another one with
the name two (\definelayout[two][one][..,..=..,..]) this will take the values
from one of there
are nothing set for a value from one and when there is also nothing set for
one the global
values are used (\setuplayout[..,..=..,..]).
Hi Wolfgang,
I modified the example (hopefully in a meaningful manner). I get the desired
output with the old beta, but it still fails with todays beta.
\setuplayout [width=middle,height=middle,header=0pt,footer=0pt]
\definelayout[first] [header=2cm]
\definelayout[last] [footer=2cm]
\definelayout[current]
\starttext \showframe % \checkcurrentlayout
% \dorecurse{2}{test\page} % last is wrong
\dorecurse{5}{test\page} % page 2 and „last“ are wrong
\stoptext

On Tue, Dec 13, 2011 at 18:03, Paul Menzel wrote: Dear ConTeXt folks, I want to create monochrome plots, but `option=monochrome` is ignored. (Ashamed.) Yes, you are right. \usemodule[gnuplot] \setupGNUPLOT[terminal=context,option=monochrome] This passes the option to terminal if no better way is available. This would only help you in case of png, pdf or metapost terminal. For ConTeXt terminal in input mode it wouldn't help you since the option color/dashed/etc. are completely ignored. This means that gnuplot will only consider options fontscale=, points=metapost|tex, width= and height= since that influences the output. Colors and dashed/solid lines can be turned on and off on the fly, same for line widths (you can redraw the same graph with dash turned on and off, using the same gnuplot output). First of all, I should fix documentation on that (using it that way is slightly deprecated and should only be used if the option is not). But second of all .. I just realized that, for example, standalone mode writes out \setupGNUPLOTterminal [context] [linejoin=mitered, % *mitered* | rounded | beveled linecap=butt, % *butt* | rounded | squared dashed=yes, % *yes* | no dashlength=1, % scaling factor for dash lengths linewidth=1, % scaling factor for line widths (1.0 means 0.5bp) %fontscale=1, % scaling factor for text labels points=metapost, % *metapost* | tex (Should points be drawn with MetaPost or TeX?) images=inline] % *inline* | external (inline only works in MKIV, external requires png support in gnuplot) but I completely forgot about monochrome option!!! Or rather ... I see that I print out \setupcolors[state=start] if and only if color is switched on, but that won't really help you in standalone mode. Ouch! I'm sorry. You don't need to recompile the terminal for that, but I need to fix t-gnuplot.tex and mp-gnuplot.mp. Does, according to what you see above, color=yes|no make sense? (I will also have to change the terminal for standalone mode, but that won't affect your plots.) However, the main reason why I didn't do it better before is because I have no idea what to do with monochrome. That is: should I use different shades of gray? Should I simply make all the colors solid black? And then the user should use color=no,dashed=yes? I'm particularly confused about the choice between different shades of gray and black. And yes - I'll fix the wiki page. Here's a quick workaround: \startMPextensions gp_color_lt[0] := black; gp_color_lt[1] := black; gp_color_lt[2] := black; gp_color_lt[3] := black; gp_color_lt[4] := black; gp_color_lt[5] := black; gp_color_lt[6] := black; gp_color_lt[7] := black; gp_color_lt[8] := black; \stopMPextensions Mojca ___ 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 ___

Re: [NTG-context] gnuplot module: `option=monochrome` does not work.
Dear Paul, Just a few more thoughts: - If your whole document is black-and-white (if you switch colors off globally), the plot will turn out black-and-white anyway (actually it will be different shades of gray). - You can always use something like plot pi lt 1 lc 0, 2*pi lt 2 lc 0 or lc rgb black (if I'm not mistaken about the syntax) or set style line 1 lt 1 lc 0 set style line 2 lt 2 lc 0 plot sin(x) ls 1, cos(x) ls 2, ...

Re: [NTG-context] xml attribute conditional
Hans et alia,
Thanks for helping out with the right xpath expression. That was
indeed the problem: div elements in the ancestor axis that had no
xml:id attribute. Unfortunately, this doesn't solve my root problem.
I have a tei/xml marked up text with English and Arabic sections. For
each ref tag in the english section I want to place a \footnote. For
the corresponding ref in the Arabic section I want to place a \note
pointing to the same footnote as the corresponding English ref. The
minimal example appended below accomplishes this, but when I try to
apply this solution to my full text, this solution fails: I get ?? in
place of the references in the arabic, lua stats reports:
mkiv lua stats cross referencing - 56 identified, 56 unknown
and I get repeated errors of the following sort:
xml lpath 1 : ex :
@xml:id==string.sub('#N020-18', 2) -
(ll.at and ll.at['xml:id'])==string.sub('#N020-18', 2) ! Missing
number, treated as zero.
which is where, I presume, the ?? references are coming from
minimal example follows (\environment ara-sty not included)
Any insights you may have would be gratefully received.

[NTG-context] ConTeXt-- does it make sense for my needs?
Many years ago I used LaTeX quite a bit for academic work, including a fair amount of Memoir class. Back then ConTeXt was quite new, so I didn't mess with it much. Now I'm back and sick of Word/etc for the documents I need to produce as print/pdf and for interaction with colleagues. What I can't figure out is if ConTeXt makes the most sense... and if it does, I have a few questions... 1) My work is primarily in the humanities and end-user technologies, with small amounts of coding. So mathematics isn't an issue. I do a fair amount of highly academic writing (aka: many sections, citations [handling this in a sensible way is really important], footnotes) with the occasional need for charts, graphs, and photos. In other words, I'm not doing the kind of layout one might associate with InDesign or the like. I also write many paper letters (personal), poetry, fiction, essays, and the like. 2) That said, I (obviously) have a keen interest in typography, and that includes wanting to use some particular typefaces... I've paid good money for many of them, so why not? 3) PDF is my primary medium of exchange, though I would like to efficiently exchange docs with colleagues, which might mean getting them into something they can open with their beloved Microsoft Word... is there an RTF output for ConTeXt? this isn't super-high on my list, but it would be nice. 4) How about X/HTML? this is my lowest level need but, again, it would be nice. 5) I generally use a Mac for everything, but I am pretty comfortable in the shell. I've done a bit of programming in PHP. I don't mind monkeying around, and I am interested in creating layouts that suit my needs, but digging into internals is not for me. I used Emacs extensively for years, now using mostly Vim (MacVim) and a variety of GUI editors depending on what I had for breakfast that day. So, do you think ConTeXt makes more sense than LaTeX? And *what* is the deal with xetex? It seems to be the easiest way for accessing all my fonts, but it also hasn't been updated for years and, since it is tied to an old version of ConTeXt (as far as I can tell) it doesn't seem like much of a winner. Finally, if ConTeXt is the way to go, are there any fairly comprehensive materials in one place for learning to use it? What I find on the wiki seems to go from basic to advanced without a lot of in between, and what I find on the web seems a bit fragmented. but at this point my head is in a whirl, so I might just be missing some obvious material.
