Hello David,

and 

> \startalignment[middle]

don't work together. Perhaps you can put your \startmatlab in a
framed box with specific width and frame=off.

Well, I don't own a Lamport, and probably not many ConTeXt users own
one, so your description could be more verbose.

Nevertheless you might want to have a look at
http://levana.de/context/ there is somewhere a module that should do
something like this. But there is still a bug in there when the
margins are too small.

I have furthermore observed that typing of files via \typefile as well
as \starttyping..\stoptyping are affected, opposed to \typebuffer.
\typefile and the typing environment do never print ^^I for a tab, but
either a space or several spaces, depending on the tab=on/off option.
This behavior is what I would like to have for \typebuffer, too. How to
do it?

RE: [NTG-context] \setuplayout --- what do parameters mean?

2004-11-04 Thread jimarin
Hi David,

I use the following code...which I borrowed and adapted from someone else (I
think it was from Patrick Gundlach's http://levana.de/context/) to explore
graphically the meanings of the parameters of \setuplayout.

I used it when developing my own style for presentations...I am aware it may
not be perfect but I hope it does help you

Greetings

Jose Ignacio Marin

The code

(the unknown commands like \Location \Style etc... are for you to substitute
with values you want)

[NTG-context] s-pre-61

2004-11-04 Thread Arnold, David
Hans et al,

OK, s-pre-61 looks nice and the source is not too long. It looks like a good
place to start. So, I tried:

Texexec --pdf --mode=demo s-pre-61

I got:

(./type-spe.tex) (./type-exa.tex) (./type-akb.tex) (./type-ghz.tex)"makemf"
--ve
rbose "ec-lt55483"
"hbf2gf" -q -g "ec-lt55483" 300
maketfm: No creation rule for font "ec-lt55483".

l.20 \setupbodyfont[mainface,ss,18pt]

?

Now, I know this is related to a font, so I looked in the source and found:

\usetypescriptfile[type-ghz]
\definetypeface[mainface][ss][sans][optima-nova][default][encoding=\defaulte
ncoding]
\setupbodyfont[mainface,ss,18pt]
\setupinterlinespace[line=3.25ex]

Since I am trying to learn Context in some depth this go round, I'd like to
start by getting this font installed, if possible. What's the easiest way to
get this done?

[NTG-context] Override starttyping environment

2004-11-04 Thread Arnold, David
Hans et al,

I have in my preamble:

\definetyping[matlab]

\setuptyping[matlab]
[before={\startframedtext[width=\makeupwidth,
  background=screen,
  backgroundscreen=0.9]},
  after={\stopframedtext},
  color=darkred]

Later in my document, I tried to center one of these environments:

\startalignment[middle]
\switchtobodyfont[big]
\startmatlab
y = x.^2 -2*x - 3
\stopmatlab
\stopalignment

But it comes out left justified, not centered. 

Any ideas how I can center one of these environments, one time only?
