Re: [NTG-context] mistake in usemodule[letter]
Hi Jessica, Try this: \usemodule[m][letter] or \usemodule[m-letter] I had a similar problem some time ago. It seems that a plainTeX document named 'letter.tex' is loaded in lieu of m-letter.tex. It is against Contex-philosophy to explicitly state the prefixes, but it may be needed now and again.

Re: [NTG-context] installing context
Dear Friends, I'm afraid Upendra's and Taco's suggestions do not work out. I changed the miktex.ini and texexec.ini files along their instructions. The miktex.ini file does not have an item hash_size or the like, but I found out how and added one. In another forum (archive) there was a question on this. It was suggested to change the texmf.cnf file, i.e. to add main_memory.context = 450 % 100 bot/top hash_extra.context = 9 % 3 I also tried that. Nothing seems to help. Does anyone have a clue?

This used to work-) First: this problem is caused by the fact that year citations are by default uncompressed. if year compression is turned on, then different code is used, and the problem never happens. Please forgive my cluelessness, but what is "year compression" and how do I turn it on? \setupcite[year][compress=yes] It is supposed to work similar to compression for author-year combinations (where it already is turned on by default), so that if you do \cite[year][johhnson1,smithson2] and both were published in the same year, you get only one year typeset instead of two. Whether or not that makes sense is another issue, the feature came 'free' with the author-year variant where it sometimes really does make sense to compress the typeset data.

[NTG-context] Metapost Problem
Hello, wat to convert a metapost file to pdf by mptopdf: my command: mptopdf.pl grid.mp then grid.1 is created but no pdf. The output on the command line is: C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070\Desktop\grid>mptopdf.pl grid.mp TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 unknown file type: texmfscripts metapost : grid format : metafun (grid.mp [1] metafun 2005-6-13 14:28 ) 1 output file written: grid.1 Transcript written on grid.log. total run time : 0 seconds -fmt=mptopdf: unknown option MPtoPDF 1.3 : grid is converted to grid-1.pdf Any suggestions what goes wrong?

This used to work-) First: this problem is caused by the fact that year citations are by default uncompressed. if year compression is turned on, then different code is used, and the problem never happens. --- I've made a change to the representation of authors (there is now one or two extra sets of braces around each author), and this causes the crash. It turns out to be a problem with the core macro \addtocommalist, that I don't know how to fix. Minimal demonstration of problem/bug: \def\acommalist{} \addtocommalist{{stuff with braces}}\acommalist Q for Hans: The way my data representation is written now, I need to be able to add the following three types of elements as well as stuff without braces: {author} % stands for one author {authora},{authorb}% stands for two authors {authora},{} % stands for author et. al. is that doable eventually, or should I implement another presentation altogether?

Re: [NTG-context] installing context
Rob Ermers wrote: Dear Friends, I have updated miktex and context today. Latex works normally, but I can't get context working right. cont-en and cont-nl are causing problems. Miktex cannot generate an (e)fmt file of cont-en, con-nl. Last time I upgraded, something was wrong with the English hyphenation files. This time something else must be the matter; even though hyphenation in several languages apparently is not installed. The patterns are loaded later in the format generation process, the initial message is a bit confusing perhaps, only later will it actually start searching for the pattern files. For the error message to go away, you need increase the variable that controls to the number of possible control sequences in miktex.ini (my guess is it will be called "hash_size"): ! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [hash size=35000]. Cheers, Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Have i right understand, if i want to draw a sinuscurve i must use a for-loop? I think it really helps with MP programming to understand this type of loops. Well i think i must learn mp before context, if i want to draw some mathemathics functions ;-) Thanx again for help. greetings al ;-) ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] Couple of index questions/bugs
I have a couple of index questions and bugs to report. Here comes: 1. When I use newtexexec, the sorting disregards an initial capital letter, sorting Hans under a; 2. Again in newtexexec, \seeindex is broken. The outpput it produces is see XXX, :0]-, and it gives an error message that I append at the end of the mail. The same file ran with texexec.pl compiles fine and produces correct ouptut. 3. In makeidx, it is possible to give the pagereference in the index a certain format with code like this \index{keyword|textit} so that the page-number will appear in Italics. Is anything like this possible in ConTeXt? That's it for now. Anu help will ne appreciated Best Thomas = error message for \seeindex !
