[NTG-context] \frac error
Hi everybody Since I updated to the last version of context , I cannot use \frac anymore in \startformula. I get the following message "I can't work with sizes bigger than about 19 feet. Continue and I'll use the largest value I can." Yet, between $ $ it is fine. Any ideas ? Many thanks. ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] Change to wordright behavior?
Dear all,
At some time in the last couple of years the behavior of \wordright
seems to have changed, at least in the following situation. With the
following example:
\starttext
\hsize3cm
Aaa\wordright{Aaa}\par
\sc{Bbb\wordright{Bbb}}\par
{\sc Ccc\wordright{Ccc}}\par
\sc{Ddd}\wordright{\sc{Ddd}}\par
\stoptext
Produces:
The second and third lines with \wordright (Bbb and Ccc) each generate
two lines. They previously produced one line each. Placing each part of
the line in its own \sc addresses it here (Ddd), but it does seem that
it should not be necessary to do that. Was this an intentional change?

[NTG-context] Analyze hyphenations
Hi, a couple of weeks ago Hans has implemented a tracker that adds a list of hyphentated words to the log file. I finally managed to play with this. The result is attached to this mail. This will permit analyzing hyphenations based on a ConTeXt log file. You need to enable hyphenation tracking in the ConTeXt file with \enabletrackers[hyphenation.applied]. Then, you can run the script with lua check-hyphens.lua input_file whitelist.ending As we assume .log for the input_file, the input file should be supplied without file ending. For the (optional) whitelist a file ending has to be supplied. Maybe I should wikify this, any suggestion where that would fit?

[NTG-context] lmtx update: two experimental features
Hi,
I uploaded a new version. There are two new features that are
experimental. This time we attempt to deal with the more tricky things
and artifacts of the otherwise nice tex machinery we need to get rid of.
One can rightfully argue that they are not really issues as one can work
around them (and so they are never brought to attention) but why not
make things better (cleaner) if we can.
(1) Languages: hyphenation normally uses a hyphen and the engine has
some messy work-around-border-cases in the hyphenator. So, I wondered if
we could improve that.
First of all, there can now be more than one hyphen character so here is
the way to deal with it (the hyphenchar code is like the other 'codes'):
\hccode"002D = "002D
\hccode"2010 = "2010
\hccode"2013 = "2013
\hccode"2014 = "2014
This makes all these four into (kind of) compound word seperators:
\startTEXpage \hsize3mm
firstpart\char"002D secondpart\blank
firstpart\char"2010 secondpart\blank
firstpart\char"2013 secondpart\blank
firstpart\char"2014 secondpart
\stopTEXpage
will work ok. There are provisions for those characters being at the
left and right edges. All is under low level (engine) option controls
(compatibility and such) but currently I enable all. With a bit of
definitions one can for the 002D and 2010 cases deal with pre/post
variants .. the question is do we need that for more, if so, then I need
to add some more code (doable).
This feature relates to Denis collection of German compound words and
ligature prevention data. Dutch has the same issue. (Denis: we can ditch
the compound word entries now, the ones with -.)
Also, this kind of automatism (keep in mind that normally tex won't
hyphenate the first word in such a compound) is especially handy in
cases where there is no control over the input as with xml (when we do
have control you can use || as compound word marker).
(I'm wondering if we should deal with the typical somewhat archaic tex
-- and --- in a different manner, but I'll come back to that.)
(2) Math: what is added is not so much an issue in traditional tex math
usage which is for journals but as context is used for educational
purposes and thereby has quite some tricks built in. Some of these jump
through ugly hoops to get it done. Here I stick to color as example.
Just try this (notice the spacing):
\startTEXpage[offset=10pt]
\showmakeup[mathglue]%
\enableexperiments[simplegroups]%
$ a = b \color[red]{=} c \startcolor[blue]=\stopcolor d $\par
$ \sin \color[green]{(x)} = \sin {(x)} $\par
\disableexperiments[simplegroups]%
$ a = b \color[red]{=} c \startcolor[blue]=\stopcolor d $\par
$ \sin \color[green]{(x)} = \sin {(x)}$\par
\stopTEXpage
The 'simplegroups' experiment enables a more hybrid grouping model but
we (read: Wolfgang, Aditya and I, but input is welcome) need to check
for side effects carefully.
The 'mathglue' tracker is also new, and it exposes what actually goes
on. It has to do with the fact that something grouped with { } creates a
math list which enforces different spacing but in the case of color that
is a side effect we don't want (of course it relates to how context
implements the \color macro and one could work around it, but the
problem is of a more general nature.

It has a documented "page" parameter: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupexternalfigure To include a whole pdf as full pages, you can use \copypages, but in your case you’d need \filterpages: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/filterpages Hraban ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___ ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] Sorting items in Lua
Hi, list. I want to know how to use ConTeXt sorters, as those used in
registers, in Lua. Like this:
\starttext
\startluacode
--Spanish
local list = {"ñandú", "perrera", "zócalo", "árnica"}
--What's "sortingfunction"?
context(table.concat(sortingfunction(list)," "))
\stopluacode
\stoptext
Also, as registers allow to set a language for sorting, I want to know how
to do the same through Lua, e.g., sorting the same list according to
English and then Spanish rules. I've searched for examples in the archive,
but I've only found cases working on the TeX side. Thank you in advance.

Re: [NTG-context] No space between \cite and next word.
Hi,
thanks! That seems like a fair list of commands.
To the mailing list: The commands listed in the previous mail all have
more than one argument (in square brackets [ ]). We had a discussion
off list, and commands such as \in will as I understood it also keep
spaces, but it has only one argument (in square brackets [ ], there
are two optional arguments in addition, but they come in braces { }).
I assume that I should wikify this, but I do not currently see where
it would be good to put it.
