Re: [NTG-context] ConText on webspace
Hi Janis, ConText can run on a server, and therefore on a web-server. Your problem would be getting 1und1 allowing for you to install the binaries. I would suggest you mail 1und1 and ask them if you can do that. You might need to switch your contract inorder to do that. Hope this helps Keith.

Re: [NTG-context] calculating with dimension unit
Hello,
thanks for the helpfull tipps. Only one wasn't working:
\defineexpandable\ColumnABii {\ctxlua{context([==[\ColumnA
+ \ColumnB]==])}}
ColumnABii: \ColumnABii
The result is: ColumnABii: 30mm+ 40mm
And it should be ColumnABii: 70mm
And in the other cases I get back: 199.16928pt instead of
70mm but this seems to be the same.
I think this calculating with dimension is not very well
documented in the context-wiki.
Thus I would like to write a small article about
Calculating with dimension units in the
wiki.contextgarden.net to help others a bit.
Or is there already an article somewhere?

Jannis

The Lua version can be removed because the line
\defineexpandable\ColumnABii {\ctxlua{context([==[\ColumnA + \ColumnB]==])}}
is only a complicated form to write
\defineexpandable\ColumnABii {30mm + 40mm}
What does happen is that context replaces \ColumnA with 30mm and \ColumnB with
40mm but nothing is calculate because the argument is a simple text string.

“prefix=no” does not work.
I am also puzzled that “repeat” must be entered at the higher levels if it
effectively means “repeat higher-level number at lower levels, to produce
e.g. 1.a.4” (quoting the wiki).

Hi, Wolfgang—
Thanks for this—I will be more careful in keeping the two apart. In this
instance, however, when I make the change, the problem persists.

You can’t put keywords and assignments in the same argument. You need
two arguments
where one holds the keywords and the other the assignments:
\startMyList[A][prefix=no]

Re: [NTG-context] ``fallback in Typescript
