This is what I did: - moved t-cmscbf.tex to type-cmscbf.tex - used \starttypescript [cmscbf] [computer-modern] [size] inside the file - replaced \usemodule[cmscbf] by \usetypescriptfile[type-cmscbf] \usetypescript[cmscbf] That's the reason why I use modules now. But there are at least two other problems with the file (so there must be a cleaner way): - I would like to use LM wherever possible, but now even for normal \sc the CM fonts are used. - It would be better, to have just one command for all possible sizes. If you want 17.8pt, it wouldn't work until you add a \definebodyfont line... PS to Peter: I would suggest you to write author=Peter M\udiaeresis nster instead of \enableregime[utf] in the header of your modules I prefer to keep my source-code readable. I don't like my name written M\udiaeresis nster, too ugly... ;-) Greetings, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/ ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

My guess is Hans misunderstood Giuseppe a bit, and Giuseppe never really tested the code, because what happens now is a bit nonsensical. I believe the attached module does the 'right thing'. You can use \setupitemize[width=4em,distance=1em] to control the two dimensions. Let me know if this is the correct behaviour, ok? ok, i merged the patch anyway -) Hans ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] patch for symb-eur.tex
Hello,
I need a \relax in symb-eur.tex to keep the space after the euro-symbol:
\definecharacter texteuro {\symbol[euro]\relax}
Test-file:
\usemodule[symb-eur] \useregime[il9] \enableregime[il9]
\starttext
X € X
\stoptext
Two other questions:
- What is the best way, to get never the serif version of the euro, only the
sans?
- Is this the right way, to activate the euro-variations:
\usemodule[symb-eur] ?
Cheers, Peter

[NTG-context] 'Glossary' on every page
Hello to all,
I have a problem: I want to add a kind of glossary on a book. It will
be, in fact, an explanation of acronyms ('NATO: North Atlantic Treaty
Organisation' for instance).
But... I'd want it on every page, only for the acronyms used on the
current page (and alphabetically sorted if possible)...
I tried using layers (with or without tying them to backgrounds),
blocks (\begin... \end...), buffers, list of synonyms, etc. but I had
problems with one of the requirements or another. :-)
My first idea was to use blocks for each page :
\beginABREV[1]
NATO: North Atlantic Treaty Organisation
\endABREV
\beginABREV[1]
BLOB: Binary Large Object
\endABREV
and to use them with \useblocks[ABREV][\pagenumber] in the footer. To
be sure to give the right page number to \beginABREV, I tried to
define a label and use it, something like (from memory, I don't have
my code near to me):
\reference[abbrev\ABREVcount]% Put a label
\beginABREV[{\ref[r][abbrev\ABREVcount]}]% and use the label to get
the current page on subsequent runs.
but I went on a nightmare of expansion problems... Plus it didn't
eliminate duplicates nor sort the acronyms. But it would have been a
start... :-)
Can someone point me to the right direction?
Thanks in advance,
Gilles.

well, instead of making some complex new mechanism, why not misuse notes

location={page,high},

\setuptexttexts

[]
\startsetups glossary
\vbox to \textheight {

}
\stopsetups
\setupnotedefinition
[glossary]
[location=left,

% ok, we will plug in some code (will go into the kernel)
\unprotect
\def\ownnotesymbol#1% #1 gets number passed
{\executeifdefined{\??vn::\currentnote}\empty}
\def\setnotesymbol[#1]#2#3%
{\prewordbreak % prevent lookback
\gdef\lastnotenumber{#2}%
\setgvalue{\??vn::#1}{#3}
\dolastnotesymbol}
\def\ownnote[#1]#2#3#4%
{\setnotesymbol[#1]{#2}{#3}%
\setnotetext [#1]{#4}}
\protect
% here we hook the code into the footnote handler
\defineconversion
[ownnote]
[\ownnotesymbol]
\setupnote
[glossary]
[conversion=ownnote,
textcommand=,
textstyle=,

\showframe
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}
{\dorecurse{5}
{I'm \ownnote[glossary]{whowing}{whow}{whatever needs to be
glossed:~\recurselevel} a bit.
\input tufte \relax}}
\stoptext
if there is interest i can add the glossary defs (maybe using a
different name) to the kernel.
I'm a bit puzzled why the notes don't split well ... maybe taco has an
idea (he knows ttp -)
concerning abbreviations ... maybe some day i'll add a feature like this
to it

[NTG-context] Re: th nd and rd
--- On Dec 29, John R. Culleton wrote --- It is common to express certain numerals with the suffixes st, nd, rd, th, with the suffix in a smaller type and raised about .5em eg: 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th. It is of course possible to cobble these expressions up in macros. But it would be handy if they were built in to Context. Any thoughts? Perhaps it is not too difficult to modify engord.sty (http://www.ctan.org/info?id=engord) from latex to work with context.
