[NTG-context] Simpleton bibliography
A very recent (Jan 21) wiki article lists this example for a simple bibliography: - \usebtxdataset [mybibfile.bib] \setupbtxrendering [numbering=yes] - Now that is simple enough for starters. Question 1: What are the other options for \setupbtxrendering and what do they do? (In my world Bibliographies are seldom numbered.) Question 2: Suppose I want to follow a different standard, other than APA, such as harvard or Chicago or whatever: where do I code that choice and how? Are bst files still in play? Question 3: url is mentioned. Does that mean that url can actually used as a data field name? I am of the KISS persuasion (Keep It Simple Silly). All of furbelows and feathers that fascinate real experts are not my cup of code. Bless the real experts, without them there would be no TeX or Context, but I am not of their clan. All I want to do is: A: Create a list of books properly encoded in bibtex or similar style. Probably all the entries will be @book types. B: print items out of that list as I choose them with \cite or \nocite in a backmatter chapter called "references" or "bibliography". -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html ___ 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 ___
[NTG-context] definefontfamily options for caps and capsbold fonts
Hi Wolfgang, with the new simplefonts interface I have two options that used to work with the old interface, but that don’t work now. Here is the command: \definefontfamily[mainface][mono][ryt1xtt][capsfont=ryt1xttsc, boldfont=ryt1xbtt, capsboldfont=ryt1xttsc] I get mono the bold font, but I cannot get mono small caps or mono bold small caps. Is alternative=simplefonts the right way to make them work? (They work fine with this option, but I have the impression of using old code.)

I try to create a Metapost path in lua and it works so far for the

How can I ensure that the code is executed at runtime?

I tried that command, but couldn't get it to work on the lua side.
The first pure MP line after context.startMPcalculation() raises a lua
error and a combination with metafun() is also not working. So how to
use this in lua?
Anyhow, the problem is the execution time of the MP graphic. I changed
the attached example a bit, so that you can see it.
The inspect() in drops.foo() gives an empty table, while the second
inspect on the TeX side shows the path "drops:foo".
I need the path right after the call (it needs to be adapted to IM
afterwards; mainly scaling and shifting). Is there a way to "force" the
execution of the graphic without switching back to the TeX side?

Re: [NTG-context] fallback font in new interface to simplefonts
Hi Pablo,
you have to use the name of the font family (the name which is displayed in
word processors when you choose a font). When you want to use the bold font for
the upright style you can add “tf=style:bold” to the fourth argument of
\definefallbackfamily.
\definefallbackfamily[mainface][serif][FreeMono][tf=style:bold,range={hebrew,alphabeticpresentationforms}]
BTW: You can omit “force=yes” because it’s part of the default setup.

Re: [NTG-context] \placeinitial after a heading

Hi,
If I attempt to insert a drop cap after a heading while the paragraph
indentation is enabled, I get the following effect: all lines the drop
cap spans except the first one (e. g. second and third in case of n=3)
get an additional indent, equal to the \parindent. For example:
\setupinitial[font=Bold sa 4,n=3]
\setupindenting[yes,1em]
\starttext
\section{Knuth}
\placeinitial
\input knuth
\stoptext
I suppose this is not the intended behavior :) The problem doesn't
occur if I enable indenting also for the first paragraph after the
heading, but in this case, of course, the drop cap itself is indented
together with its adjacent lines. So the following workaround is
possible:
\setupinitial[font=Bold sa 4,n=3,
hoffset=\parindent,distance=-\parindent]
\setuphead[section][indentnext=yes]
Nevertheless it would be nice if this issue could be fixed.
in the next beta the following works ok
\showframe
\setupbodyfont[12pt]
\setuplayout[height=middle,topspace=1cm,header=0pt]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setupinitial[font=Bold sa 4,n=3]
\starttext
\section{Knuth} \setupinitial[location=text] \placeinitial \input
