[NTG-context] urgent bottom line problem (thin paper)
Hi, before getting the train to Praha there is an urgent last problem to be solved: The bottom line of body text and footnote text need to be absolutely at the same height (due to a very thin paper used)! I tried to fine-tune the height of layout by 1pt up-and-down, but the difference stays: at least 1mm. Is there a "...skip" that's needs to be adjusted? (using grid mode is a no-go!) Help please!!

[NTG-context] stray characters in output before bibliography
Hi, I'm new to ConTeXt (from LaTeX). I'm trying it out for a course paper that I need to write and running into a problem with the output pdf. With respect to the code below, when I compile it, I get the odd text "pubs]References" under the "References" section heading. I've looked around, but I can't find anyone having a similar problem. Is this caused by something I'm doing incorrectly in the ConTeXt code or is it something wrong with the bib module?

In my own projects I do the same. The question is rather: is context supposed to support the "*" in filenames, or not. If yes, context must be enhanced somewhere.

I don't know what you mean with siunits. Wolfgangs module? We have unit support in context for along time (also as part of some mathml extensions). So, we're more talking of an upgrade of the current module (units and digits) and I will have a look at Wolfgangs code to see what additional support is in there and we can merge things if needed. He’s talking about my module. The difference between our modules is that your use “10 \Meter \Per \Second” for the input while i use ”\siunit{10\meter\per\second}”. ah, so you explicitly tag the unit one reason why I didn't do this is that it does not integrate well in math at that time (superscripts etc) and the mechanism was mainly meant for schoolbooks (and strongly related to mathml input as well) There is nothing wrong about two modules with the same function as long as both do not cause a problem for the module (and i took care of this in my module). sure Parts like the number parsing can become part of the core and you provide a function which others can use to integrate it in their own macros. indeed The fundamentals of units are not going to change much, apart from the fact that we can now parse m/s if needed instead of using the verbose names). I’m not a friend of the ”m/s” input because you can’t say where a units starts/ends without adding separators between them, here is a example from latex’s siunitx package which supports both methods but although the first is shorter we should rely on the tex method hm, never seen that one (no time to look into it anyway) - si{kg.m/s^2} - si{\kilo\gram\metre\per\square\second} we can provide the first one flagged as "unit mode for dummies" but it will never work out well with $ a = 123 m/s^2$ so one would always hae to tag the unit then. Keep in mind that the units module runs on top of synonyms so that one can ask for lists of used units and meanings of them. Adding this function is no problem, synonyms can also be integrated in any other system. yes let's discuss it at the conference Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
