Re: [NTG-context] bibliography - maybeyear

Hello,
Using
\setuppublications [alternative=num]
for example, should not append letters to the publication years when
encountering multiple publications by the same author(s) per year.
So, in the use of bibliographies, I have not understood how to control
\maybeyear.
In the bibl-xxx.tex files, it is defined as
\def\maybeyear#1{#1}
or
\def\maybeyear#1{}
as needed. Perhaps this is for mkii.
In bibl-bib.mkiv, one has
\appendtoks
\doifelse{\bibtexpublicationsparameter\c!maybeyear}\v!off
{\let\maybeyear\gobbleoneargument}
{\let\maybeyear\firstofoneargument}%
\to \everysetupbibtexlistplacement
which seems to then use the keyword maybeyear.
I guess that
\setupbibtexpublications [maybeyear=off]
in my source would turn off the appended letters, but this is not
correct. I have tried many variants (\setuppublications, \setupbibtex).
What am I misunderstanding? Or is this a bug?
\setuppublicationlist
[maybeyear=off]
maybeyear is one of the areas that need fixing. The simple on/off
mechanism is not sufficient, because the behavior needs to be more complex:
1. If the citation style does not use the year as a key, do not append
letters.
2. If the citation style uses year as key and only one publication/year
of an author is quoted and listed (even if there are several in the bib
file) do not append letter.
3. Append letter if citation style uses year AND more than one
publication/year for given author is quoted and listed.
I assume that in order for this to work, Hans will have to rewrite the
code which produces the .bbl file from the bib. Right now, AFAICS, the
.bbl contains the entire .bib database. It should only contain the
entries which are cited.
Alan, does that make sense to you?

[NTG-context] sagemath in context (like sagetex)
Hi, Is there any kind of package for embedded sagemath in ConTeXt (like sagetex in latex). I found the same question previosly asked (http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2009/040483.html), but more things are changed until 2009... so perhaps there is now a solution By the other hand, I see lua lunatic code: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/User:Luigi.scarso/luatex_lunatic#SageMath but this is very programmer centric code, in my opinion. Is there any easy way to do that? I use MKIV Thanks, Xan. ___ 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 ___

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to fix a Palatino small caps issue using the
procedure explained here:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Palatino_Linotype_under_MKIV
That fix seems to be obsolete nowadays and returning errors.
This LFG core settings:
unicodes = {
[a.sc] = 97, (1)
[b.sc] = 983261, (2)
},
(1) replaces all small 'a' into small caps variants - just for
testing purposes
(2) doesn't replace small caps 'i' to small caps 'b', but when small
caps text is selected, b is copied into the clipboard - so some
replacement is performed, but incomplete.
this mechanism assumes that the shapes match the one that unicode
expects so the (default) tounicode is used ... originally this features
was meant for fonts with a faulty mapping (some dingbat fonts have
that)
So a different approach is needed. In another thread we've found out that
there are two glyphs of the same name:
glyph index | glyph name
1110| i.sc/ small caps dotlessi
1170| i.sc/ small caps i
Currently when 'i' is to be rendered as small caps, 1170 is used, but I'd
like to use 1110 instead.
Can this be specified using a LFG file?
Thanks, Jan

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Provide showgrid as a PDF layer
Dear All, it would be nice to have a possibility to interactively disable/enable a grid rendered via \showgrid command. Whereas this grid is helpful for debugging, it disturbs when the page is evaluated as the whole. Using layers could make this process more efficient (not requiring to generate both variants). I've noticed something like this is already implemented for the body area (visualizer vbox layer). Or is there any option for this already?
