Re: [NTG-context] Devanagari in Siddhanta font with Context m-iv

[Shree Devi Kumar]

Aditya,

sarvaartha should have the r maatraa on top of va - in case of siddhanta
font when used in ConText the maatraa is not coming instead a dot seems
visible halfway on va (I am assuming that you can read devanagari) - when
you compare with Chandas the maatraa is  clearly visible. so
सर्वार्थ is looking like सवार्थ with a dot on वा

It may be a question of correctly stacking the components for building the
vertically stacked glyph (I do not know much about font design and
rendering - this is just a guess).

Chandas is not fully unicode compliant for some of the accents which
are encoded in PUA,

hence I would like to use Siddhanta which I understand is a completely
redesigned version
of Chandas fully compartible with Vedic Unicode


Fonts are available from:
Siddhanta: http://svayambhava.org/index.php/en/fonts
Chandas: http://www.sanskritweb.net/cakram/


Can you explain what is wrong in the output?

When you process a comma list you can also loop over the entries in the list
which is faster than accessing each entry of the list one by one (I change in
the example to natural tables because tabulate can’t be used in this way):

\def\Test
  {\dosingleargument\doTest}

\def\doTest[#1]%
  {\newcounter\TestCounter
   \bTABLE
   \processcommalist[#1]\dodoTest
   \eTABLE}

\def\dodoTest#1%
  {\doglobal\increment\TestCounter
   \bTR \expanded{\bTD \TestCounter \eTD} \bTD #1 \eTD \eTR}

\starttext
\Test[First row,Second row]
\stoptext

Thank you everyone for your help! Quite excited about having so much
for me to learn. This mailing list is immensely helpful indeed. So,
both solutions worked for me, but I've decided to stick to the one
that uses comma separated list having adapted to my needs the code
kindly offered by Wolfgang (it would take me a while to figure out the
solution myself).

Kind regards, Pavel.

Re: [NTG-context] [OT] Book complete and thank you

[Otared Kavian]

Very nice book! Thanks for sharing.
I would like just to point out that contrary to what is said on page 40, Pierre 
Verhulst was not a French mathematician but rather a Belgian mathematician who 
proposed a model of differential equations to describe population and resource 
dynamics , please see:

http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Biographies/Verhulst.html

Best regards: OK
