[NTG-context] Newcomer bibliography question
Happy New Year,
I am trying to create style skeleton for my reports in ConTeXt. Aw test case I
decided to add my bibliography from previous articles written in LaTeX. I
have tried this bibliography with plain bibtex, natbib, biblatex with no
problems. With ConTeXt bib module I get bunch of errors.
I am using latest ConTeXt minimals on FreeBSD.
I am adding the bibliography like this:
\usemodule[bib]
\setuppublications[alternative=apa, refcommand=authoryears, numbering=yes,
criterium=all]
\setupbibtex[database=report, sort=author]
\completepublications[criterium=all]
I can't figure out on my own what is wrong with my bibliography (attached).

like this,

I can't figure out on my own what is wrong with my bibliography (attached).
It is bug in the module triggered by the lack of issue information
in some of the article entries. To fix it, best put this in your
preamble for now:
\setuppublicationlayout[article]{%
\insertartauthors{}{ }{\insertthekey{}{ }{}}%
\insertpubyear{(}{). }{\unskip.}%
\insertarttitle{\bgroup }{\egroup. }{}%
\insertjournal{\bgroup \it}{\egroup}

\insertvolume

{\egroup\insertissue{\/(}{)}{}\insertpages{, }{.}{.}}
{\insertpages{, pp. }{.}{.}}%
\insertnote{ }{.}{}%
\insertcomment{}{.}{}%
}
I will fix this in the next release.
P.S. By the way. Is it possible to supply multiple sorting criteria? Possible

\setupbibtex[database=report, sort={author,year,title}]
No, that is not possible. I have a lua-based bibliography converter
planned and once that is in place, this will be possible.
Best wishes,
Taco

[NTG-context] Looks like a bug in \typefile[option=LANG]
I have defined a new float environment for source file listings.
\definefloat [listing] [listings]
\definetyping[listing][numbering=file]
\placelisting[lst:set]{Example of set tree} {
\typefile[listing][option=C]{set.cpp}
}
It works just as expected.
Then I have tried to change standard color palet with my own palet.
\definepalet[corp-pretty][prettyone=corp-color-darkblue,
prettytwo=corp-color-blue, prettythree=corp-color-lightblue,
prettytwoone=corp-color-grey, prettyfour=corp-color-green,
prettyfourone=corp-color-green, prettyfourtwo=corp-color-green,
prettyfourthree=corp-color-green,
prettyfourfour=corp-color-orange, prettysixone=corp-color-orange,
prettysixtwo=corp-color-orange
prettyeight=corp-color-orange, prettynine=corp-color-orange]
\definefloat [listing] [listings]
\definetyping[listing][numbering=file, palet=corp-pretty]
\placelisting[lst:set]{Example of set tree} {
\typefile[listing][option=C]{set.cpp}
}
The colors did not appear, in the texexec output I got lots of errors like
color : TEXcorp-pretty:prettythree is not defined
color : TEXcorp-pretty:prettythree is not defined
color : TEXcorp-pretty:prettyone is not defined
color : TEXcorp-pretty:prettytwo is not defined
color : TEXcorp-pretty:prettythree is not defined
color : TEXcorp-pretty:prettyfour is not defined
NOTICE \typefile LOOKS FOR PALET TEXcorp-pretty and not corp-pretty as I
have defined. There is some bug or feature that makes an implicit
assumption of the palet prefix name - TEX.
I have managed to make it work by definition a palet with name TEXcorp-pretty
and still passing as palet option of \definetyping the name corp-pretty, but
it is a ugly hack.

[NTG-context] create and grade multiple choice exams with MUCH an ConTeXT
Dear Sirs,
For create and grade my MCQ (multiple choice quiz) I use the MUCH
command that in had found at http://fourier.math.uoc.gr/~mk/much/.
this is a very useful command for create and grade quizzes. Actually my
main propose is use MUCH with context (or luatext).
I prepare my exams in this way:
Each question = one file
Question example:
Today is:
.
31 December --- the true question is the first
.
25 December
.
13 Mars
.
In the test-description I include my specifications.
And them I do:
much create test-description
A mc-outfile.tex is created. Now I do:
pdflatex exam.tex for making the pdf file with all exams. If you can
help I would use ConTeXT to prepare the pdf file.
The migration should be very easy. I think there is necessary to define
in context several commands like:
\newcommand{\mcglobalheader}
\newcommand{\mcpaperheader}
\newcommand{\mcpaperfooter}
\newcommand{\mcquestionheader}{\noindent{\bf Question
\mcquestionnumber}: }
\newcommand{\mcquestionfooter}{}
In the file questions (mc-output.tex).
mc-output.tex
\mcglobalheader
\def\mcserialnumber{500}
\mcpaperheader
\def\mcquestionnumber{1}
\mcquestionheader How many circular orderings of the numbers
$0,1,\ldots,10$ are there?
(Two circular orderings which differ only by a rotation are not
considered different.)
\\
{$A$}: $10!$
\ \ {$B$}: $3^{11}$
\ \ {$C$}: $11!$
\ \ {$D$}: $9!$
\ \
\mcquestionfooter
\mcpaperfooter
% another exam
\def\mcserialnumber{501}
\mcpaperheader
\def\mcquestionnumber{1}
\mcquestionheader In how many ways can we select, from a set of 20
people, a committee of 3
different persons with a chair, secretary and member?
\\
{$A$}: $20\cdot19\cdot18$
\ \ {$B$}: $\frac{20!}{3!}$
\ \ {$C$}: $20^3$
\ \ {$D$}: $3^{20}$
\ \
\mcquestionfooter
\mcpaperfooter
%%%
Thanks a lot for your support.
Happy New Year to all
Jorge

[NTG-context] PDF bookmarks appear twice
I have found similar issue was discussed in this list, but it doesn't contain
a suitable solution for me
These command work just fine to add bookmark for every part, chapter and etc.
\setupinteraction [state=start]
\setupinteractionscreen [option=bookmark]
\placebookmarks [part,chapter,section,subsection] [chapter]
But I want to add three additional bookmarks (without adding them to the
contents): title page, resume(second page), contents.
I have defined it the following way:
\definemakeup[Titlepage][pagestate=start, page=right]
\definemakeup[Resume][pagestate=start, page=right]
\definestartstop[Abstract][before={\page[blank,right] \midaligned{\bf
Abstract}\startnarrower[2*middle]}, after={\stopnarrower\blank[big] }]
\starttext
\startTitlepagemakeup
\bookmark[chapter]{Title page}
\tfd Title page \\
\stopTitlepagemakeup
\startResumemakeup
\bookmark[chapter]{Resume}
\startAbstract
Abstract paragraph full of text
\stopAbstract
Author name
\stopResumemakeup
\title{Contents}
\bookmark[chapter]{Contents}
\placecontent[interaction=all]
\stoptext
In this case bookmarks appear twice in the bookmark menu. If I use \bookmark{}
without [chapter] the bookmarks do not appear at all. I have tried to put
bookmarks out of start/stop environments but it didn't help.
How to work around this issue?
