In the meantime, I suggest anyone interested in this to get their hands on 
e-Omega
1.15 (Omega + eTeX functionality). This is the version the how-to will be 
based upon.
It is available for fpTeX and MiKTeX; I'm not sure when a version will be 
available
for teTeX, though Thomas Esser may cooperate with anyone willing to 
provide a separate
patch.
Here in Hawai'i GB and TE sat together and got it running under linux so 
eomega is tetex ready ...

[NTG-context] Arabic support for ConTeXt

Nothing in principle, but if I do a

  \processXMLfilegrouped{foo.xml}

which contains

  
   ...
  
  
  

this doesn't work. Moreover I'd like to keep the content as far as
possible separate from the layout.

What's wrong with this :
\starttext

\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals]

\startfrontmatter
  \completecontent
\stopfrontmatter

% \setuppagenumber[number=1] % Uncomment to restart numbering
  \setuppagenumbering[conversion=numbers]

\startbodymatter
  \chapter{First}
\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte\par \input knuth\par}

  \chapter{Second}
\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte\par \input knuth\par}
\stopbodymatter

\stoptext

[NTG-context] bodymatter and alternative=doublesided, XML documentation

2003-07-25 Thread Tobias Burnus
Hi,

I have the following problem:
Using
  \setuppagenumbering[location={footer,right}]
  \startbodymatter
  \chapter{Hi}
  \stopbodymatter

I always get 3 pages, but I want to have two: The recto with "Hi" and its
verso, I don't want to have an extra recto!


Is there a nice way to setup
frontmatter to use roman numerals and bodymatter "arabic" numerals
starting from 1?

I know I can use \setupsectionblock[][before=\bgroup\setup...]
but is there something nicer?


A part of that document should be in XML, is there any documentation for
the ContML available by now? Or about the XML namespacing etc.
support, which is not mentioned in "XML in ConTeXT"?

Tobias
