Pablo, do I understand right that you’re converting XML and the comment comes
last in that structure, but you need it first?
I.e. the real question is how to process the XML structure in a different
order, right?
That would avoid shifting boxes around, which might be possible, but ugly and
hard to control.

Your "answer" is pretty much coded code to me. I don't understand it and don't have the
first notion of how to implement it in my file. For one thing, I have no clue what
"ttbf" means. Can't find it on the wiki or in the manuals. Google says it's the Texas
Teen Book Festival but I'm guessing that ain't it. ???
My example shows which key is used for which space around each item.
To insert vertical space you have to use the \blank command and set a
value in the optional argument, e.g. \blank[1cm].
To insert now a space of 1cm before the first item you need the "before"
key with \blank as argument:
\setupitemgroup[mdshw][1][before={\blank[1cm]}]

Re: [NTG-context] spacing before items
Yes, I did try it. It put "[before]" (in ttbf (thanks for the hint!)) on the previously blank line before the first top-level item. And it put "[inbetween]" in the other previously blank lines between both level of items, and "[after]" into the previously blank line after the last item. Spacing was not affected at all, only mysterious words in square brackets showed up in the output. ?? -Original Message- From: ntg-context [mailto:ntg-context-boun...@ntg.nl] On Behalf Of Henning Hraban Ramm Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2020 2:27 PM To: mailing list for ConTeXt users Subject: Re: [NTG-context] spacing before items > Am 17.06.2020 um 21:50 schrieb Mike Cooper > : > > For one thing, I have no clue what "ttbf" means.

1. Where can this solution be found?
2. This solution also adds space between the top-level and second-level

I only want some visual separation between the top-level chunks.

Re: [NTG-context] spacing before items
Thanks Wolfgang!
1. Where can this solution be found? (wiki or elsewhere)
2. I'm guessing that you're saying that my \startsection should have
[title={...}] instead of what I gave?

The first entry uses the "before" value while inner entries use "inbetween".
\starttext
\setupitemgroup

How does this work with mark nodes? Their mark field has a table
containing triples of command, character and "cs" value. How can the
actual csname of a controlsequence be extracted from this in LuaMetaTeX?

Beside that, I noticed a smaller weird thing when using LuaMetaTeX in ini
mode without Context: The default mathcodes for digits and letters have
their class and family values switched. So e.g. "A" has a default
mathcode of 119537729=0x7200041, indicating class 1 and family 7,
instead of the expected 31457345=0x1E00041, indicating class 7 and
family 1. Of course this isn't really a problem because the format will
normally assign new mathcodes anyway, but especially class 1 seems like
a *very* unnatural default for normal letters.
i'll check it (digits get class 0) ... indeed these defaults nowadays never
kick in this way
Thanks. Is there any way to convert either a token number (as given e.g.
by t.tok) or a numeric cs identifier (as given e.g. by t.tok-cs_token_flag)
to a token uservalue?
In LuaTeX I used to use `token.new(tok, 0)` for this, but LuaMetaTeX
seems to do more checking here.
Indeed there is more checking. So, when you create a token you need to
use a valid cmd code and a valid chr code.
\ctxlua{
local t = token.new(string.byte("X"),token.command_id("letter"))
tex.print(t)
}
The interface might evolve a bit more. Valid commands (at this moment) are:
\ctxlua{
for k, v in ipairs(token.values("command")) do
print(k,v)
end
}
So, things like this should work
\dimen3456=1234pt
\dimen3467=
\ctxlua{
local t = token.new(3456,token.command_id("register_dimen"))
% local t = token.new("register_dimen",3456) % in upcoming version
tex.sprint(t)
}
\the\dimen3467
As does:
\ctxlua{
local t1 = token.new(string.byte("{"),token.command_id("letter"))
local t2 = token.new(string.byte("}"),token.command_id("letter"))
tex.print(t1)
tex.print(t2)
}
Properties like cs_token_flag are not user level and have no meaning in
the interface. In fact, the 'token-as-number' is just some
representation with no intended meaning. Also, tokens that are
problematic or can interfere badly might become inaccessible in future
versions.
(I don't expect many users to use the low level token interface anyway
but it's there as part of the package.)

Re: [NTG-context] using modeset

Much appreciated. > > I will explorer the solutions that have been offered to extend my knowledge on using ConTeXt but at the same time I value the advice of not going down that route for large document. The project that pays my bills is technical documentation in several languages (in LaTeX3, setup by Marei). Each manual is constructed from many small building blocks of text. Each block is in its own file.That makes editing one whole manual somewhat tedious, but pays off if you recycle the same blocks. E.g. each block is only translated once, even if it appears in several manuals (think of security instructions or legal stuff that is the same in all). Each block has an explicite change date to keep track of the state of the different translations.The two main files of each product are one that contains just a few settings and one that pulls in all the needed building blocks. In this case all blocks with the same content in different languages are kept together in one directory (files have a language code). Another approach would be same structures and file names below a main language directory.If you have only one translation, the latter might be better. If you need to keep several translations in sync, the first approach might make more sense.
