[NTG-context] two suggestions to \typesetbuffer
Dear Hans, I have presentations that include buffers typeset with \typesetbuffer. One of the presentation includes 33 buffers, which are small ConTeXt samples. Any time I change anything on the presentation (not on the buffers themselves), every buffer is typeset again. And the compilation time is longer than probably desired. My first suggestion would be to skip compiling buffers again, if the following three requirements are met: 1. Buffer content (.tmp file, I guess) is identical (checked with a hash) with the previous one from last compilation. 2. PDF file hasn’t been changed since previous complete compilation (md5 sum again). 3. Buffer content was correctly compiled in previous compilation. My second suggestion may be a bit complex to implement, but I think it would be useful. Wouldn’t it be possible that the fonts are only embedded one in the presentation?

Re: [NTG-context] Index - ranges

1) when a range for my subject index entry is specified and the text

\startregister[index][range_01]{primary}
Dummy text.
\stopregister[index][range_01]
It is rare, but any help to eliminate it completely is appreciated.
2) when ranges are used heavily, confusing results are produced. In
following examples I would expect a single range 1-6:
a) 1-3, 3-6
b) 1-6, 2-4
c) 1-6, 5-6
This one was caused by improper Docbook = dbcontext = ConTeXt conversion.
All ranges of secondaries were treated as primaries so they were collected
at primaries. After fixing the XSLT such cases dissapeared completely.
Great. This would be a blocker for me.
3) when several single index entries are used on consecutive pages, the
result 1,2,3,4,5 is produced. Is there any option to create a range
from this?
I'm reconsidering this now. I designed my 'subject' index to use ranges when
the subject is thoroughly explained, which obviously needs to define
beginning and end. On the contrary, when the subject is just mentioned
(above the threshold of importance), I inserted just a single index entry
instance.
Collecting these single instances into the range of e.g. 1-5 would bring
false expectations that the subject is thoroughly explained there...
This logic goes slightly against the case (1). When the range would be
collapsed into to a single value, we would loose the info that the subject
is described here. But it looks weird.

Re: [NTG-context] Configure AUCTeX to run context not texec
Thank you very much for the advice on configuring AUCTeX to compile context files.
