[NTG-context] Feature Request: Set Output Directory
Hi, Summary: If the --result parameter includes a path then ConTeXt should assume that that directory is writable thus read/write its temporary flies at that location instead of the current working directory (CWD). Consider the following three accounts: - ConTeXt installation account (e.g., context) - Web server account (e.g., web) - Application account (e.g., app) ConTeXt is run using the web server account. The web server's CWD is set to the application directory. For security reasons, the web account may not create files in the app account. When ConTeXt is called by the web account, the CWD is an app account subdirectory. This subdirectory contains scores of .tex input files that control various themes for the final rendered document. Many different users, through this web-based application, create different content .tex files. I would like to run context as the web user within the app directory, where the input .tex files are located; effectively, as the web account, this would look like: cd /home/app/public_html/book/context source /home/context/bin/context/tex/setuptex /home/context/bin/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/context /home/web/users/1/book.tex --result=/home/web/users/1/book.pdf Since the web account cannot write to the app directory, this causes the following error: ! I can't write on file `book.log'. The following is also not possible as the web account: cd /home/web/users/1/ source /home/context/bin/context/tex/setuptex /home/context/bin/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/context book.tex This fails because the book.tex file includes files that are in the app directory, which cannot be found. Since the book.tex file will be in a different directory for every user, a symbolic link in each book directory would probably resolve the issue, but that's a bit wasteful. I have updated TEXMFCACHE in texmfcnf.lua to point to /var/cache/context/texmf-cache/ (world-writable), but it didn't help. It seems that ConTeXt assumes write permissions to the current working directory, which is not a valid assumption. Thoughts? P.S. Also, the --result parameter should be listed in the --help page (or the --help page should list --all as a way to see all the options). ___ 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 ___
[NTG-context] Include PDF Fails
Hi,
I am trying to include a single test page in my document. The
following code fails to set the PDF as the background layer for the
cover page. I've tried several variations
(http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Including_pages_from_PDF_documents),
but nothing works. It seems to be a problem with this specific PDF
being included.

Out of curiosity, how can one access the counter associated to an enumeration or an item? You can use \rawcountervalue[name of the enumeration environment] or \convertedcounter[name of the environment]. Also, if I understand correctly, the command \increment\QuestionCounter creates first a counter named QuestionCounter, if it does not exist yet, and then increments its value: so one does not need anymore commands such as \newcounter\QuestionCounter before incrementing it. Am I right? No, you don’t need \newcounter because \increment checks if the counter exists because it tries to increase the value. The \newcounter command which creates the counter can also be used to reset the value and not only to create the counter.

[NTG-context] Bug in \placefigure[right]?
Hello!
For a while I've been baffled by a weird bug where sometimes I get
overset text when using \placefigure[right]. The problem appeared
sometime this autumn in places where everything has worked before.
This far I've (reluctantly) worked my way around the bug by using hard
line breaks where needed, but the current project has so many of those
spots that a more flexible solution would be nice.
On the other hand, just because I have so many of them and some
appeared today, I realized that the problem can be related to {\tfx }
in the beginning of the line. Here's a minimal example:
\starttext
\placefigure
[right][cow]
{A cow}
{\externalfigure[cow]}
{\tfx SET TIME/DATE} allows you to (re)set the instrument date and
time. Time is set by inputting a certain amount of digits. Possible
inputs are 4, 6, 8 and 12 digits. To set hours and minutes, input 4
digits. To set day of month and time input 6 digits. To set month, day
and time input 8 digits. To set year, month, day and time input 12
digits. In all cases seconds can be set by separating them with a dot.
The format can be seen below.
\input tufte
\stoptext
===
I know it is not beautiful, but I'm doing something very specific
where this is needed. In a real pinch I can probably rewrite every
problem sentence to put the \tfx in the middle instead of the
beginning, but this still doesn't make the original problem go away.
(Although I may be the only one bothered by it...)
Mari
PS. Hmm... Same thing if I use {\sc blabla} so while I reallly should
switch to small caps, that is not the solution.
PS2. I just tried with \placefigure[left] and I get overset text with it, too.

It’s a known problem when you have a font switch at the begin of a paragraph
and you can avoid it only when you force horizontal mode before you change
the font with
\dontleavehmode{\tfx …} …

[NTG-context] autohang doesn't work (Mk IV)
Dear list, I'm using an updated Context minimals beta, and can't get autohang to work (in Mark IV). autohang=yes seems to be ignored.

[NTG-context] Difficulties with \startformula
Hi,
1- I put here a far too long example to show difficulties that I have
with formulas in conjunction with framed:
I haven't find a way to insert a formula (displaystyle, vertical
mode), at the beginning of a \framed.
2- It might be related with this other thing:
The last examples are about mouse text selection with Okular (haven't
tried with another viewer):
When I mouse text select elements of the formula, when the
\startformula \stopformula in embeded in a \hbox, what is highlighted
looks alright. Instead, when it's in vertical mode, what is
highlighted is very very large.
It's probably not the purpose of pdf documents, but this select (and
copy) feature is very convenient. This feature is rather impinged with
this not so nice looking behavior. Also in these conditions Okular
can't select the text precisely, but instead select a much wider area
of text (one example here does this).
3- When embedded in \hbox (not vertical mode then), the height of
mouse text section is alright is formula is 'x+y', but there is an
error if the formula in instead '\int_a^b'.

There are horses for courses. I write invoices
using plain pdftex. Not much code required, I just
change the data fields for each new iteration. I
also use the antique TeXsis tables for structure.
Here is an example:

I print the first page, flip the
paper, print the address info, and fold the
paper into threes. Glue the edge, affix a stamp
and mail.
Run the above code and look at the results.

[NTG-context] invoices: make module or wikify
