[NTG-context] Number in a circle
Hello list,
I would like to typeset a number in a circle. Nothing fancy. No special
colours, transforms, or complex metapost magic (which I am not familiar
with).
I have tried \circled{3} and \textcircled{3}, but ConTeXt does not
appear to recognize these commands. Any help appreciated.

Thanks Wolfgang. I gave it a try on https://context-on-web.eu/, but it
failed:
Dimensions can be in units of em, ex, in, pt, pc, cm, mm, dd, cc,
bp, dk, or54sp; but yours is a new one! I'll assume that you meant
to say pt, for printer's55points. two letters.
I'm not sure what it is referring to.

Thanks Ryszard. Those would be perfect, except I can't get them to work
in ConTeXt. I tried using the \utfchar{0x2460} but it just displays the
number 1.
I am assuming it needs a font that supports it, but I'm not sure how to
switch to a supporting font just to typeset that character and then
revert back. Is there some way to define a macro?

Hello Seyal,
This does work but it's a bit annoying that I have to create an SVG of
just a circle and store it somewhere. I'm fine with using MetaPost,
especially if it makes this easier, but I just don't know how.

[NTG-context] BibTeX choking on comments in database
Hello list,
I am using BibTeX under ConTeXt to typeset a publication. I noticed
while building the publication ConTeXt raises the following non-fatal
warning:
...
This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2023/Debian)
The top-level auxiliary file: Secret_Sauce.aux
The style file: cont-au.bst
Database file #1: ./References.bib
I was expecting a `{' or a `('---line 2 of file ./References.bib
:
: % See the file Copying for details on copying conditions.
(Error may have been on previous line)
I'm skipping whatever remains of this entry
(There was 1 error message)
publications> loading formatting style from 'bibl-apa'
open source > level 4, order 13, name
'/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/bib/mkii/bibl-apa.tex'
close source> level 4, order 13, name
'/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/bib/mkii/bibl-apa.tex'
...
All that's present on the first few lines of the References.bib BibTeX
database are comments that begin with the '%' character.
Is there a different character that should be used for BibTeX databases
when used with ConTeXt?

Thank you again Wolfgang. This is very helpful and works well.
One question I have for you is how to set the colour of the circle to
match the other text on my page. I currently do the following in my
environment file:
\definecolor[colour_text][r=0.754,g=0.516,b=0.324]
\setupcolors[state=start,textcolor=colour_text,pagecolormodel=rgb]

Hmm, that's a great idea. But I can't seem to get a minimal to work
with https://context-on-web.eu:
\definefontfallback[SymbolFB]
[file:symbola.otf]
[0x00300-0x003FF,0x02100-0x02800,0x1F000-0x2] % look up the
right
Unicode ranges!
[check=no,force=no]
\definetypeface [myfonts] [rm] [serif] [times] [default]
[fallbacks=SymbolFB]
\starttext
\utfchar{0x02460}
\stoptext
The above just prints the vanilla character '1'. That might be because
the online editor doesn't have access to the font. So I tried compiling
the above locally with the Symbola.otf file in the same directory and
same problem.

Thanks Wolfgang. That does work.
But another problem I've found is the font and circle are not
automatically resized when used in a formula:
\definecolor[colour_text][r=0.754,g=0.516,b=0.324] % RGB 0xc08453
\setupcolors[
state=start,
textcolor=colour_text,
pagecolormodel=rgb] % gray rgb cmyk auto none
% Commands for MetaPost interpreter to draw a circle...
\startuseMPgraphic{textcircle}
draw fullcircle
xscaled OverlayWidth
yscaled OverlayWidth
withcolor OverlayLineColor;
\stopuseMPgraphic
% Define an overlay using the above image...
\defineoverlay[textcircle][\useMPgraphic{textcircle}]
% Define a frame we can use via \textcircled{X} that uses as its
background
% the above overlay...
\defineframed
[textcircled]
[width=1.4em,
height=1.4em,
frame=off,
background=textcircle,
framecolor=colour_text,
location=low,
offset=none]
\starttext
Here are the numbers \textcircled{1}, \textcircled{2}, and
\textcircled{3}.
And when used in formula, \math{\Sigma_{i^b x_{\textcircled{3}}^i}}
\stoptext
What I was hoping would happen there was the circled 3 in the formula
would shrink to look like a subscript for the x variable. Any help
appreciated.

Wolfgang, please don't tax yourself further on this. I've managed to
find another way of expressing the same ideas in my publication without
having to resort to the above magic. Thanks again.

With respect to the latter wiki page, the project might consider adding a PPA. They're very popular among the over a hundred different Debian based distros out there. They reconcile both system requirements of proper FHS usage and file tracking by the system package manager with the user's need to use the latest stable or nightly. -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___

Right now it's the latter due to time constraints. Although I have helped a number of free software projects get PPAs up and running. Usually once they're up there's not much to do after. Since ConTeXt is already Debianized by the Debian project, you probably can start with their debian/ folder, edit as needed, and then you should be good. You can also set an automatic build recipe in the PPA so each commit to SCM results in a new nightly. You'll get a lot more people using and testing your newer release this way. Food for thought. -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___

I'm probably doing it wrong, but I still can't get it to work:
\definefontfallback[SymbolFB]

Some text in default font before temporarily switching just for this number:

And back to normal text.

This is called a "source package" in the Debian parlance: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-source.html But if you click the "Other versions of 'context' in untrusted archives" at the bottom of the page it will show you PPAs. There appears to be three, all of which are ancient. Just so you know, Ubuntu source packages are just Debian source packages, but often with some downstream patches. The Debian source package is what ends up in endless distros. Probably most lay users who use ConTeXt outside of building from a tarball or putting somewhere outside of the FHS are using some Debian distro derivative's package via: $ sudo apt install context Unless the Debian package is updated, usually downstream derivative distros won't update their own. For that reason if you want to affect the most change for the most users it's best to do so here: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/context Over a hundred distros just recycle the above source package and its resulting binaries. Usually Debian is slow to update their packages, depending on who is assigned as package maintainer. Because of that, this is part of the reason why PPAs are popular because they shorten the time for lay users to try the new version without having to fiddle with paths, tarballs, etc. Once you have a PPA up, to build binary packages the builder does the same as the ones used by the Debian project. You upload a Debian source package and it will then go and build and test the resulting binary packages. After that it injects them into the APT repository (which is all a PPA is). -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] Draft vertical text in margins
Hello list, I'd like to place the text "DRAFT" in the left and right side margins of every page, rotated 90 degrees so that the text runs vertically. It would be nice if the text was 180 degrees rotated on the right side in comparison to the left margin. I've tried with overlays and I can't seem to get them to work correctly.

Hey Hans. I note that command is not documented (yet) so thank you for
providing that. That works in getting the reference typeset without
having to list all of them.
That at least gets the reference to typeset, but back to the original

I gave it a try but it bails on further errors. I think the safest thing to do at this point is to just wait until it's resolved.

Hey list,
I am having problems typesetting the following minimal to try and
extract the current revision number from my revision control system:

os.resultof"bzr revno | tr -d '\\n'")}}
\initializeBzr

\stoptex
The error I receive is:
! LuaTeX error [string "\directlua "]:1: invalid escape sequence
near '\%'.
system > tex > error on line 5 in file minimal.tex:
LuaTeX error ...
Line 5 is the \initializeBzr invocation. This was working with TeX Live
2012, but perhaps the correct usage has changed. I am now using ConTeXt
2013.04.11 19:55 with LuaTeX beta-0.76.0-2013041612 (TeX Live 2013)
(rev 4627).

This was solved as well by removing an escaped pound sign in one of my
bibtex references. It shouldn't have choked on it, because as I said, it
was escaped, but removing it made it appear to compile ok.

Yes, I managed to solve this by removing an escaped pound sign ('\#' ->
'') in one of my BibTeX references. If I wanted to keep the pound sign,
what is the proper way to escape it in my BibTeX database?
Thanks Hans.

[NTG-context] LuaJitTeX, \texenginename, and \texengineversion
Hey Luigi, I find the \texenginename and \texengineversion useful for retrieving the backend name and version. They work fine when using the vanilla LuaTeX backend. However, when using LuaJitTeX, the aforementioned macros still seem to retrieve LuaTeX specific information and not LuaJitTeX - unless I'm doing something wrong. I was careful to ensure I passed --engine=luajittex to context as well. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ 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 ___

Thanks Luigi. That was pretty comprehensive.
For my purposes, it makes no different to me whether I am using luatex
or luajittex. However, in my document's front matter I like to have
general information about the tools used to typeset the document, and
for that reason I thought it would be nice if there was a simple and
elegant way to show which backend was used.

It looks as though the problem is buried in line 596 of font-syn.lua.
For some reason s.angle is typed as a Lua string and not a number.

I tried patching the above with the following...
local angle = f_a(tonumber(s.angle) or 0)
...and the Lua compiler does appear to consume that line successfully,
but a new error I cannot decipher creeps up...

That also appears to be buried deep inside Hans' math routines. I can't
figure out exactly what he is trying to do, but it looks as though it
has something to do with calculating correct values for fonts.

Thanks Hans. ConTeXt gets past that, but raises font errors:

I have the Ubuntu typeface installed on my system and nothing has
changed, except this version of ConTeXt is newer. In my environment file
I have...

[NTG-context] Bad PDF to text crawlers
Hey list, I have an important document online that I would prefer to keep as a PDF and not in another format. Unfortunately bots frequently try to provide those looking for it with a text version they try to extract (beyond my control). The extraction looks just absolutely awful and has been a major pain in leaving readers with a really bad understanding of the contents of the document. I was thinking that there must be some way of tricking these bots, depending on how they are implemented, and let's assume they will always find the PDF, to get them to extract only a small invisible layer that just contains some hidden text directing a user to the location to download the original high quality ConTeXt PDF. Any suggestions? -- Kip Warner -- Senior Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ 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] More chemic module woes
Hey list,
I am running ConTeXt version 2011.06.17 16:50 pulled from Adam's PPA.
From the Chemistry wiki article here,
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Chemistry
, I am attempted to compile the water reaction example here:
\usemodule[chemic]
\startformula
\chemical{2H_2,+,O_2,->,2H_2O}
\stopformula
The image following it on the wiki looks as one would expect, but mine
does not. I compiled the same code, but bracketed with \startstoptext
and my generated PDF contains literally the following:
2H 2,+,O 2,–>,2H 2O
Something's not right. Any ideas? I have tried it both with and without
the texlive-math-extra package installed.

Hey Hans,
Sorry, I don't follow. Do you mean chemical support is included by
default and you don't need to explicitly load the module? Are you saying
that the "chemic" module is deprecated? Or something else?

Ok, I replaced \chemical with \inlinechemical in my code, along with
replacing the GIVES with + signs and it came up working.

[NTG-context] Sanskrit Devanagari characters
Hey list, I need to sprinkle my book with a few Sanskrit words written in the Devanagari script. I don't need to write complete paragraphs in it, but just a word or two inline.

Hey list, I am trying to change the body font of my document in the environment file to use the Ubuntu font provided at, /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font-family/Ubuntu-R.ttf , by the ttf-ubuntu-font-family package.
