[NTG-context] Underscore in tables
How do I get underscores (_) into a table? I'm producing an ASCII
chart, and as character 95 is _ I would like it to show up as such.
Right now I get a high dot. I'm using \starttable.

[NTG-context] miktex searching
Hi, Because i frequently use texmfstart to locate/launch/etc binaries, scripts and other things in the textree, i need to make sure that it also works with miktex. Do miktex users have kpsewhich on their system (or is this an option), or should i use a miktex specific search tool?

Very funky stuff, accents in ConTeXt. You'd have to dig up in
enco-acc plus the other enco-* files.
I actually found this last night, digging in the ConTeXt code. U're right:
VERY funky stuff;-)
But it's really nice, since, thnx 2 the way Hans has abstracted things,
the solution for \=i has no effect on \=I or anything else:-)
Anyway, I now have a working proper accent now for \tf and \it;

\stoptext
==
A word on the parameters: I ran tftopl on cmr12.tfm, made a note of the
QUAD and X-HEIGHT values, as well as the width of the i-box. I opened
\cmr12.pfb in FontLab and made some measurements of the i-glyph and the
macron bar; dividing a given width by the QUAD-value gives the rlative em
values used above (similarly for the lineskip calculation, dividing
heights by X-HEIGHT).
The definition of \IBAR has two possibilities: macron is width of the
i-box, or it's the width of the base of the i-glyph. Upon experimentation,
I found the latter width more aesthetically pleasing, but I have kept the
other as an option (commented). In fact, making the macron the width of
the i-box may make better sense for \sc.
PROBLEM: Now I need to learn more about \TeX conditionals, because this
solution does not work for \bf, \bi, and the like. The height of the
imacron bar needs to be greater for bold fonts. How can I make a set of
three conditionals such that the definition of \IBAR has a different
expansion for
\tf, \it, \sl etc.
\bf, \bi, \bs etc.
\sc
??? That is, when \bf is on, the definition of \IBAR should expand a
conditional that is based on the bold-dependent parameters.
Anyway, for \tf and \it this looks s much better than the plain.tex
imacron; Please try it out! And I'm open to suggestions on tweaking the
parameters to make this look better.
Best
Idris

I just traced through the dependencies that weren't already present on a Panther system. That's what took all day. Darwin Ports would probably get you GTK a lot quicker. You probably could build SciTE on top of that. If you're really interested, I made a little diagram of the missing libs I found. I could annotate that with what I can remember of the build tricks I needed. Nothing fancy, just drudge work. I'd be glad if you could write together these tricks. But my installation is so messy (Fink stuff, a lot of self-compiled stuff and several different ports stuff...) that I probably should wait until I set up a clean Panther system.

[NTG-context] Overwritten metapost files
How was it one avoided getting metapost overwritten? I have two
metapost graphics in a .tex file defined by \startreusableMPgraphic and
the first one gets overwritten by the second when running

Very funky stuff, accents in ConTeXt. You'd have to dig up in

\=i becomes \imacron
which by default (enco-def) becomes
\definecharacter imacron {\buildtextaccent\textmacron \dotlessi}
which you can study in enco-ini :)

I use the \super macro quite often but it is not nested in the \textipa{} macro.

A great number of symbols I use (especially the Indo-European ones) are only available
through the IPA
commands, therefore it seems that I need some deeper support. I read your
UnicodeSymbol pdf about unicode
mapping and wondered if there might be a similar way to map the TIPA font?
