Re: [NTG-context] parsing in child attribute

Hello,

And chapter 7 is especially cryptic to me, In fact, I tried

don’t understand why.


I must confirm Pablo's experience with myself
- chapter Example paths just tell me there are great possibilities with x-paths but 
I'm not able to assemble them successfully.

E.g. there is (pg. 38):


pattern: answer/test/child:

1 axis auto-descendent-or-self
2 nodes *:answer
3 axis auto-child
4 nodes *:test
5 axis child


How to understand this?
What does axis / node mean?
What numbers 1 ... 5 mean?

Some basic explanation of such pattern would be nice...

Best regards,

Lukas

Is this a bug or am I missing something?

[NTG-context] Bleeding pictures as floats?

2015-05-04 Thread Henning Hraban Ramm
Hi, I hope BachoTeX was a success!

Is it possible to use the float placing mechanisms for pictures that go beyond 
the type area or even beyond the page?

In the book I’m typesetting, most pictures need to fill the whole width of the 
page (i.e. plus 3mm bleed), but not all cover a full page.

I don’t know how to tell \externalfigure or \placefloat a negative offset.
Or can I use layers with floats? Of course the text should flow around the 
pictures.

BTW, what does the „object“ key of \setupexternalfigures do?

Thank you, that helped, but not enough.

I have now:

\def\bleed{3mm}
\def\maxWidth{\dimexpr(\paperwidth+\bleed)}

\definefloat[bleedfigure][figure]
\setupfloat[bleedfigure]
[
outermargindistance=-\bleed, % does that exist?
leftmargindistance=-\bleed,
rightmargindistance=-\bleed,
default={cutspace,none},
maxwidth=\maxWidth
]

\def\topfig#1#2{\placebleedfigure[top]{#1}{\offset[topoffset=\dimexpr(-\topspace-\bleed)]{\externalfigure[#2][width=\maxWidth]}}}

With that my pictures start at 0,-3mm, but they should start at -3mm,-3mm on a 
left page. Their maximum width is only \paperwidth, without bleed.
Where’s my mistake?

 The problem is that we are fetching files from rsync and judging from
 the past experience Hans is usually unable to access his servers while
 at BachoTeX, so most likely he updated the website, but not the rsync

[NTG-context] Newbie needs help getting started

2015-05-04 Thread Johan Råde

Hi,

I'm trying to get ConTeXt to run on my Windows machine (Windows 7 SP1).
I already had MiKTeX installed on the machine.
Here is what I did:

  1. I downloaded context-setup-mswin.zip.
  2. I unzipped and copied the folder to C:/context
  3. I ran the command
  first-setup.bat --context=current --modules=all
  4. I added C:\context\tex\texmf-win64\bin to my PATH variable
  5. I opened up the example file at 
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Hello_world in TeXWorks

  6. I selected ConTeXt(LuaTeX)
  7. I compiled the file

The compilation failed. The log says:

Re: [NTG-context] Removing a single ligature and using swash alternates

2015-05-04 Thread Manuel Blanco
The problem is that it's a 500 page document, I would like a general
way to deactivate the Th ligature. If there's no “semiautomated
system” (like feature files) to remove ligatures, I guess it could be
possible to do a general replacement in the document, altough I don't
remember the command, I think I might have seen something like

\definereplacement [Th] [\noligature{Th}]

that would, in a hackish way, deactivate it. What's the exact
interface in that case?

No idea about the Swashes? I thought that this would work

\definefontfeature [swash] [swsh=yes]
\setmainfont [Minion Pro]
  [features=swash,
   expansion=quality,
   protrusion=quality]

but it doesn't.

\noligature{Th}anks! :)

[NTG-context] alternative numerical \cite command

2015-05-04 Thread Csikos Bela
Hello list members:

For inserting citations ConTeXt offers several \cite command alternatives.
If I understand correctly citations can be inserted like:

\cite[key], when the document's default cite type is used, or:

\cite[authoryear][key], \cite[author][key] etc., where the citation style is 
set by the first option.

These citation styles are predefined in context.

What I would like to do is inserting alternative numerical citations:
normal superscript citations, like this^1, and occasionally inline citations in 
brackets,
like this one [2]. How could I define alternative numerical citation style, e.g.
\cite[inum][key] on the analogy of author, authoryear etc. styles?

Thanks,

bcsikos

mkiv-bibliographies (not the mkii publications module).

The citation styles can be tuned through parameters, i.e.

\setupbtx
  [cite:numbering:num]
  [left=,
   right=,
   command={\high}]

but in the latest beta, this way of switching to superscript citations
is currently broken, I noticed, (and will be fixed).

Let me understand, though.
Do you want to mix\high{1} citations with [1] citations?
That would be rather strange, stylistically.

There is a predefined second num cite variant \cite[textnum][tag]. It's
use is intended to produce something like ref. 1, to be used
syntactically in a sentence, in conjunction with standard num
references. [1] This is just num setup with [left={ref.\nbsp},right=].

Hi Alan,

Excuse-me to jump over a discussion related to the new bibliography features of 
mkiv, but is it now reasonably stable to swithch completely from mkii to mkiv 
(I still have some files in mkii which I use only because of the bibliography 
features I have set up on purpose). 
And where can one find an elementary introduction to the new bibliography 
features?

Thanks in advance, and best regards: OK

Hi Johan,

I wonder whether both paths (from MikTeX and the ConTeXt Suite) don’t clash.

My guess is that you should run:

c:\context\tex\setuptex
mtxrun --generate
context --make --all

And compile the file you want from the command line, if compilation from
TeXworks fails.

I hope it might help,

Try running first-setup.bat without --context=current. And then try to
stay in the command line, run setuptex.bat (I forgot the details) or
change the PATH variable manually and try running context --make
--all.

(Due to the criticism of releasing the current all too often, Hans
started releasing betas. But then he stopped releasing stable versions
and as a consequence very often current doesn't even work with the
luatex version shipped with the distribution. I would bet that
--context=current is broken, but I didn't try it. You should get
beta by default.)

But the weird thing is that Fatal format file error; I'm stymied
error was common with pdfTeX. With ConTeXt MkIV the formats are
usually regenerated automatically.

[NTG-context] Help with \numexpr

2015-05-04 Thread Keith McKay

Colleagues

I've written some code which should extract photos from a directory and 
a add couple of lines of description to each photo.  I'm using a 
variable (\numberText) as a counter which I was hoping to use with 
\getfromcommalist[string1, string2,...][\numberText] to add one line of 
text.  However when I try to increment the variable using \numexpr 
(\numberText=\numberText+1) \relax I get the error You can't use 
`\numexpr' in vertical mode.


I'm not familiar with \numexpr and there does not seem to be much on the 
wiki on how to use it.  Any suggestions would be helpfull.


Here is the code

\setupexternalfigures [directory={/Path/to/the/Photos}]

\defineexternalfigure[photo][maxheight=0.4\textheight]

\define \numberText{1}

\starttext

\dostepwiserecurse{141}{146}{1}/% //\recurselevel is part of photo 
filename. See below./


{

\externalfigure[sam_0\recurselevel.jpg][photo] \par /% //\recurselevel 
is part of photo filename/


File Name /Path/to/the/Photos/sam_0\recurselevel.jpg\par

\getfromcommalist[some text,another text,even more text,much better 
text,even better text,the ultimate text][\numberText]


\commalistelement\par

\numexpr (\numberText=\numberText+1) \relax \par

\numberText \par

}

\stoptext



Thanks
Keith

[NTG-context] two questions on lpaths

2015-05-04 Thread Pablo Rodriguez
Dear list,

I have the following sample:

\startbuffer[demo]
div
h1 id=myspecialidFirst Title/h1
pA paragraph/p
p/p
h1Second Title/h1
pA paragraph refered to a href=#myspecialidthe previous
section/a/p
p/p
/div
\stopbuffer

\startxmlsetups xml:initialize
 \xmlsetsetup{#1}{div|h1|p|a}{xml:*}
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlregistersetup{xml:initialize}

\startxmlsetups xml:div
 \xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups xml:h1
 \section[\xmlatt{#1}{id}]{\xmlflush{#1}}
\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups xml:p
\xmlflush{#1}\par
\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups xml:a
\about[\xmlatt{#1}{href}]
\stopxmlsetups

\starttext
 \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{}
\stoptext

The only way to make the link work in XML is to remove the '#' char from
\xmlatt{#1}{href}.

How could I achieve it without modifying the XML source?

Related to this issue, I also have the following lpath:

[contains(text()='#')]

Well, how could I make that the text begins (and not only contains) with
the regular expression #[a-z]?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

Re: [NTG-context] alternative numerical \cite command

 These citation styles are predefined in context.
 
 What I would like to do is inserting alternative numerical citations:
 normal superscript citations, like this^1, and occasionally inline
 citations in brackets, like this one [2]. How could I define
 alternative numerical citation style, e.g. \cite[inum][key] on the
 analogy of author, authoryear etc. styles?

mkiv-bibliographies (not the mkii publications module).

The citation styles can be tuned through parameters, i.e.

\setupbtx
  [cite:numbering:num]
  [left=,
   right=,
   command={\high}]

but in the latest beta, this way of switching to superscript citations
is currently broken, I noticed, (and will be fixed).

My context version is:
ConTeXt  ver: 2014.01.03 00:40 MKIV current  fmt: 2015.4.1  int: english/english

I could set up superscript citation for numerical citation based on 
contextgarden
bibliography page example.

Let me understand, though.
Do you want to mix\high{1} citations with [1] citations?
That would be rather strange, stylistically.

Yes, but in tables I don't want to put superscript citations.

There is a predefined second num cite variant \cite[textnum][tag]. It's
use is intended to produce something like ref. 1, to be used
syntactically in a sentence, in conjunction with standard num
references. [1] This is just num setup with [left={ref.\nbsp},right=].

I guess this command would fit my needs after some editing.
Unfortunately my context version doesn't have this command.

Using \cite[textnum][tag] simply outputs [tag].

Either I should update my context to newer (beta?), which I don't know how to 
do,
or define the command in the document. I'd prefer the latter one, if feasible.

Thanks,

You are using the MKII code. It takes the syntax
\cite[alternative]{key} which is very intolerant of spacing
and the newer module has abandoned this LaTeX style in favor of
\cite[key] and \cite[alternative][key]

I recommend that you stick with the MKII module/code for now as we have
not yet entirely stabilized the new dataset code.

No, that's not quite right, the syntax has always been 
\cite[alternative][key]. For the rest: what Alan said! The new code is 
not quite production ready, and if you're using mkii, switching in the 
midst of a project is a bit risky, to say the least.

[NTG-context] simplefonts vs typescripts

2015-05-04 Thread david.boerschl...@juno.com
I have been trying for weeks to set up the Google Noto fonts for ConTeXt.   I 
have tried (but do not understand all the syntax and parameters of) typescripts 
and simplefonts.

It seems that I probably should gravitate towards typescripts because the 
typescripts seem to be what comes with the distribution of other fonts.

Is there detailed documentation describing all the parameters in detail and 
giving examples?   All I found is some vague examples without any explanations 
in the contextgarden.net wiki.

Is there a tool that I can use to look at the .ttf or .otf file and discern the 
values I need to put into the typescripts?   Is there a tool to generate 
typescripts from the .ttf and/or .otf files or would one be easy for me to 
write in say Korn, Perl, or Python?

Please advise!

Thanks.

It's not that weird: pdftex etc have no check on the format so if for 
instance a new primitive an old format will crash the new tex. For that 
reason we added a compatibility version number to luatex (starting at 
asciisum(DEK) to test to luatex format loading that will quit when 
that number jumped .. we're now one version further down the line. So 
... a quit instead of a crash. So, if pdftex would add a primitive it 
doesn't give that message but either crashes or runs on with the wrong 
mem undump.

- if you know the names of the fonts simplefonts is the way for a fast setup

- otherwise you can look at e.g. type-imp-mscore and make a typescript 
(in mkiv normally only a few lines so having that scripted is (1) 
overkill and (2) duplicates simplefonts)


typescripts used with filenames are a robust way to be future proof as 
fonts can change (for the same reason even system fonts can be be copied 
to tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data)

The example you provide is with an intermediate state: at one point, 
Hans simply ported (most of) the functionality of the bib module to 
mkiv. The new commands have \btx in their names; they are written from 
scratch and use lua instead of bibtex. And please take my word for it: 
the user interface really isn't stable enough yet, even for some quite 
elementary cases. When things have settled down, it will be announced. 
(If you're really impatient, you cam have a look at the publ-imp-* files

Re: [NTG-context] Bleeding pictures as floats?

 Is it possible to use the float placing mechanisms for pictures that go 
 beyond the type area or even beyond the page?
 
 In the book I’m typesetting, most pictures need to fill the whole width of 
 the page (i.e. plus 3mm bleed), but not all cover a full page.
 
 I don’t know how to tell \externalfigure or \placefloat a negative offset.
 Or can I use layers with floats? Of course the text should flow around the 
 pictures.
 
 Does the details manual  [1] answer your questions?

 Thank you, that helped, but not enough.
 
 I have now:
 
 \def\bleed{3mm}
 \def\maxWidth{\dimexpr(\paperwidth+\bleed)}

Use \definemeasure and \measure to set your own dimensions.

It is also bad style to redefine the \bleed command.

 \definefloat[bleedfigure][figure]
 \setupfloat[bleedfigure]
 [
 outermargindistance=-\bleed, % does that exist?
 leftmargindistance=-\bleed,
 rightmargindistance=-\bleed,
 default={cutspace,none},
 maxwidth=\maxWidth
 ]
 
 \def\topfig#1#2{\placebleedfigure[top]{#1}{\offset[topoffset=\dimexpr(-\topspace-\bleed)]{\externalfigure[#2][width=\maxWidth]}}}
 
 With that my pictures start at 0,-3mm, but they should start at -3mm,-3mm on 
 a left page. Their maximum width is only \paperwidth, without bleed.
 Where’s my mistake?

Can you make a working minimal example.

Wolfgang
