[NTG-context] lower superscripts in MkIV -- too low?

2014-03-21 Thread Sanjoy Mahajan
Dear math typesetting aficianados,

In the following example,

\starttext
$x^3\ x\mathstrut^3$
\stoptext

the superscript without the strut is about 2pt lower than with the
strut, using MkIV.  With MkII or plain TeX, they are the same height
(at the higher position obtained by using the \mathstrut in MkIV).

My eye tells me that the higher position looks more right.  Do others
agree?  Or, if it's a matter of taste, is the difference configurable
so that one can get the MkII behavior even without the \mathstrut?

[NTG-context] proposal about link borders

2014-03-21 Thread Pablo Rodriguez
Hi Hans,

many thanks for fixing the issue with links (and other two issues about
PDF information).

I have two proposals about hyperlinks, after having looked at an
uncompressed file with hyperlinks. AFAIK, they haven’t been implemented
(I have checked the wiki, the “ConTeXt Commands” documents, the
reference manual, and the source [I apologize, if I have overlooked
something]).

My first proposal would be an option to have link borders enabled. I
guess that something like \setupinteraction[linkborders=on] would be a
good choice. With this option, one can have an interactive version and a
printable version of a document in the same file. This is extremely
useful in many scenarios.

My second proposal would be an option to have colored link borders.
\setupinteraction[linkbordercorlor=on] could be the option to enable
color in link borders.

I think both proposals could be useful for (at least for some)
interactive documents.

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

Re: [NTG-context] issue with \processaction

 The next one (AFAIK) should work on every OS:

 \startluacode
 local user  =

 context.verbatim(user)
 end

 function document.UserNumber(name)
 context.verbatim(users[name or user] or 0)
 end
 \stopluacode

 \def\CheckUser {\ctxlua{document.CheckUser ()}}
 \def\UserNumber{\ctxlua{document.UserNumber()}}

 \starttext
 This is user \CheckUser with number \UserNumber.
 \stoptext
 
 (Untested)
 
 Change `local user` by
 
 ~~~
 userdata = userdata or {}
 userdata.user = 
 ~~~
 
 and all other occurances of `user` by `userdata.user`.

Many thanks for your reply, Aditya.

I followed your instructions, but I’m afraid that it doesn’t work.

I cannot say whether it is my fault, since this is all Greek to me.

I tried a simpler approach (my guess, I discovered the existence of
\executesystemcommand yesterday), which doesn’t work either:

\def\Checkuser{\executesystemcommand{echo rightuser  tmp-yser.txt}}
\def\CheckUser{\Checkuser\input tmp-yser.txt}
\def\UserNumber{\processaction[\CheckUser][rightuser=1, unknown=user
unknown]}
\starttext
This is user \CheckUser\ with number \UserNumber.
\stoptext

I don’t know why the \UserNumber command cannot process action and why
the backslash after \CheckUser is required, since it seems to add an
extra space.

What am I doing wrong in the previous example?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

[NTG-context] font bug in latest beta?

2014-03-21 Thread Thomas A. Schmitz

Hans,

is it possible that the latest beta has a bug in font handling? As far 
as I can see, all the usual TeX ligatures etc. do not work:


\setupbodyfont[times]

\starttext

1--2 o'clock

\stoptext

would be a minimal example.

All best

Thomas
