I have been revising my notes for newbie Mac installation of the
ConTeXt Minimals and was about to put them online when I discovered
that, when I try to process a file using MKIV, it does not find my
personal texmf folder (~Library/texmf). There is no problem when I
process the same file us

Though this definition works in a simple test file, it apparently

I have installed the Context Minimals following the newbie

The instructions themselves are clear but should perhaps be updated:
• the file originally downloaded is first-setup.sh not first-setup.tsh
• to execute this file run ./first-set

easily enough, but how can I get the main division number to repeat
in the subitem numeration?

Sorry for the noise. The problem seems peculiar to the particular
file that I was processing. Now to find out why...

\definetextbackground[A][backgroundcolor=red]
\setuptextbackground
[backgroundoffset=0pt,

gives a yellow background

Thank you very much for the files: they do have what I need. But
where do these these files come from? I have not found them on my
installation of TeXLive/ConTeXt or on the TeX Gyre website.

I am using the Termes typeface in the TeXGyre distribution and should
like to have all numerals print automatically as oldstyle numerals.
Is there an explanation/demonstration anywhere of how to make this
happen? I have searched the wiki and the archive, but have not yet
been able to make a
solution was to use an alias of the target PDF file (symlink?) in
the same Folder (directory) as the .tex source file in which the link
is established and to use another PDF reader.
Many thanks.

Thanks, Aditya, for making sense of my query and answering it.
\setuptextbackground[framecolor=black] did the trick.

How do I turn off interaction when using \startunderline...
\stopunderline. Currently the underlining shows in blue, but I need
it in the same color as the typeface (black). Is there something
equivalent to \setupunderlining[interaction=off]?
Thanks for any tips or clues.

. This worked
well for quite some time, but is it now no longer necessary to do
this? My test document does seem to have hanging punctuation without
re-installing Latin Modern, but I might be wrong about that.

Please send me your email address: the files you want will choke the
list-server: its max is 40 KB, and the PDF alone is 88 KB---this is
smallest that seems to reproduce the problem.

I apologize if this amounts to hijacking a thread.
The problem
Using TeXShop (latest) I can produce but not print a PDF file that
has both the TeX Gyre Bonum from GUST and the GreekKerkis font from
Thomas Schmitz' ancient Greek module. This file will, however, print
with Acrobat Pro 7 and 8
. That is a good tip. Many thanks.

Hans—
The problem appears to be the Bonum font from the TeX Gyre
distribution. If I change the font to GFSDidot, all is well.
Too bad—Bonum is a good font, I think, for papers that are to be
presented by reading.
