Thank goodness for the Mac and Gerben. So easy.

 I get the same result as on page 3 of MyWay. Is your result match what

 Thus, for the time being, I have changed my texexec.bat to call

This addition makes sense anyways, just be on the safe side regarding

[NTG-context] Description nesting

2006-05-05 Thread nico
Hello,

Is there a way to nest some descriptions, where the nested descriptions  
respect the enclosing indentation?

Funnily the wiki speaks about the subject  
(http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Description) but doesn't give any solution  
(btw, the given solution to have several paragraphs in a description looks  
obsolete since \start \stop works pretty well).

Here is an example that I would like to see working:

\definedescription[descr][
   headstyle=bold,style=normal,align=left,location=hanging,
   width=broad,margin=1cm]

\setupwhitespace[medium]

\starttext

\startdescr{Para}
   This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
   The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.

   This is another paragraph under the Para item.

   \startdescr{SubPara1}
   This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
   The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.
   \stopdescr
   \startdescr{SubPara2}
   This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
   The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.

[NTG-context] Advance in columnsets/columns?

2006-05-05 Thread Michal Kvasnicka
Good evening.

I've been very busy in the last year or so, so I haven't been able to 
follow up change in the ConTeXt. So I dare to ask: Was there some 
advance in columnsets and columns in the last year? (I haven't found any 
mail in the mail archive on this topic.) I typeset our church bulletin 
in the column layout, so I am especially interested in these matters:

1) If there is some automatic balancing of columnsets, that would allow 
me to stop the columnset at the middle of the page, balance it 
automatically (not manually, I know to do it manually, but it's 
bothering), and start a new columnset on the same page. (I know it's on 
the edge of TeX possibilities, or beyond perhaps. But Mr. Hagen is a 
real Wizard---he has already implemented many things that I thought are 
not possible in the TeX.)

2) Or, what would be satisfactory, if the float-placement mechanism of 
ordinary columns was improved, so that I would be able to put a float 
not only here, or on the top, but also in the bottom in the two 
columns layout.

Many thanks for your kind answer.
Your sincerely
M.K.

[NTG-context] Minion/Myriad

2006-05-05 Thread Michal Kvasnicka
Good evening.

I've found there are some nice Minion/Myriad fonts included in the 
Acrobat Reader 7.x for Linux, and that they include glyphs needed for 
the typesetting Czech. But I don't know how to handle .otf fonts. I know 
there are some huge manuals on this topic, but I'm really short of time. 
So I dare to ask one lazy question: Does anybody here have all the 
necessary files (typescripts, metrics, virtual fonts, .otf translated to 
.pfb etc)? Would he be so nice to zip and send it to me? (Perhaps with a 
sample file showing how to use it?) I'd be really thankful for that. (I 
know it's not a great reward.)

Your sincerely lazy being short of time :-)

[NTG-context] typing midaligned

2006-05-05 Thread Peter Münster
Hello,
such things are really easy and straightforward with LaTeX (parbox and
minipage), but with ConTeXt I have still a lot of difficulties. This is
what I do to align some typing in the middle:

\starttext
\input tufte

\setuptyping[before=\vskip-\lineheight,after=\vskip-0.13\lineheight]
\startalignment[middle]
\dontleavehmode
\framed[align=lohi,frame=off]{%
\starttyping
bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
\stoptyping
}
\stopalignment
\input tufte
\stoptext

The result is correct, but can't this be done much easier?

 Hi,

 I'd like to use the stand-alone-version of ConTeXt with Win2k,
 but it doesn't work:

 F:\isoimage\usr\local\context\demotexexec --make --all
 f:/isoimage/usr/local/context/tex/texmf-local/scripts/context/ruby/newtexexec.rb:8:in
 `require': No such file to load -- base/switch (LoadError)
 from
 f:/isoimage/usr/local/context/tex/texmf-local/scripts/context/ruby/newtexexec.rb:8

 but

 f:/isoimage/usr/local/context/tex/texmf-local/scripts/context/ruby/base/switch

 exists and contains the required file(s).

 What's wrong with my installation or batch-file?

Which ruby do you have (one-click installer or from cygwin)? Try 
setting RUBYLIB path variable to

F:\isoimage\usr\local\context\tex\texmf-local\scripts\context\ruby

Re: [NTG-context] Description nesting

 Hello,

 Is there a way to nest some descriptions, where the nested descriptions
 respect the enclosing indentation?

 Funnily the wiki speaks about the subject
 (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Description) but doesn't give any solution
 (btw, the given solution to have several paragraphs in a description looks
 obsolete since \start \stop works pretty well).

 Here is an example that I would like to see working:

 \definedescription[descr][
   headstyle=bold,style=normal,align=left,location=hanging,
   width=broad,margin=1cm]

Try,

  \definedescription[descr][
 headstyle=bold,style=normal,align=left,location=hanging,
 width=broad,margin=2em, before=\doMySetup]

  \def\doMySetup{
 \setupdescriptions[descr]
 [before=\startnarrower,after=\stopnarrower]}



 \setupwhitespace[medium]

 \starttext

 \startdescr{Para}
   This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
   The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.

   This is another paragraph under the Para item.

   \startdescr{SubPara1}
   This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
   The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.
   \stopdescr
   \startdescr{SubPara2}
   This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
   The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.
   \stopdescr
 \stopdescr

 The 'selector' feature sounds truly wonderfull! The code below doesn't
 compile yet for me though ...
 1) '\protect' needs to be called after '{\executeifdefined{\??sx#1\c!n

 2) Even after changing that I run into the following error when compiling

[NTG-context] More on split TABLES: Numbering Scheme and other things

2006-05-05 Thread Johannes Graumann
Hello,

I'm using the split-TABLE patch below (send - how can it be different - by
Hans) along with the also appended table definition (to read out XML code).
I have two problems here:
1) as posted earlier, the page just before a split TABLE overflows on the
bottom (see
http://www.idyll.org:8081/JohSite/context/page-overflow-preceeding-a-split-table).
2) I also wonder whether the table numbering scheme this is producing may be
changeable: instead of '1.1a', '1.2b' (currently for two parts of a split
TABLE) the more intuitive '1.1a', '1.1b'

Can anybody give me a helping hand for fixing this?

Thanks, Joh

Table definition:
\defineXMLnested
  [table]
  {
\defineXMLsave[floattitle]
\defineXMLsave[caption]
\defineXMLsave[header]
\defineXMLsave[body]
\defineXMLsave[footer]
  }
  {
\splitfloat
  {
\expanded{%
  \placetable
[\XMLpar{table}{location}{here}]
[\XMLpar{table}{label}{unknown}]
{\select{figurecaption}{\XMLflush{floattitle}
{{\bf\XMLflush{floattitle}} \XMLflush{caption}}}
%{\XMLflush{caption}}
 }
  }
  {
\setupTABLE[row][1][topframe=on]
\setupTABLE[row][last][bottomframe=on]
\bTABLE[frame=off,split=repeat,splitmethod=b,style={\switchtobodyfont[small]\setupinterlinespace[line=2.8ex]}]
  \bTABLEhead\XMLflush{header}\eTABLEhead
  \bTABLEbody\XMLflush{body}\eTABLEbody
  \bTABLEfoot\XMLflush{footer}\eTABLEfoot
\eTABLE
  }
  }
