Could you recommend other approaches which work out-of-the-box (or almost). Obviously I would prefer ConTeXt based solutions.

Best Piotr -- http://okle.pl Difficult to say of course without knowing the complexity of your documents, but just a few thoughts: if you're referring to Simon Pepping's Docbook in ConTeXt, this was targeted at mkii, so it will probably still work, but could be considered obsolete. xml support in mkiv has changed a lot, but is much more powerful and flexible. It's fairly easy to write a stylesheet to translate your xml for typesetting, so I would look at the relevant xml documentation (like xml-mkiv.pdf) and make a fresh start. You can always refine and elaborate things as you go, and if you really hit a wall, there's the list.

[NTG-context] footnotes, blank
Hi all, two questions here: 1. Is it possible to define a blank so that the paragraph after it will not be indented (in a document which otherwise does have indents)? I looked at \defineblank and the new \definevspacing, but couldn't find anything appropriate. 2. I want footnotes placed at the bottom of the page so that the vertical place is filled (so with a flexible vertical space between text and notes), but on the last page of every chapter, the publisher prefers the footnotes right below the text, not at the bottom of the page. Is this feasible?

[NTG-context] footnotes again
Hi all, I'm sorry I have to ask again about footnotes setup. I misunderstood the style that our publisher wants. Maybe it's easiest when I do a bit of ASCII art (will only work with a fixed-width font): | texttexttexttexttex | | textexttexttexttext | | | | 9 footnote 9, more | |than one line. | | 10 footnote 10. | So: the footnote numbers in the footnotes are typeset in a box. This box is just big enough to hold a three-digit footnote number. Its left edge is flush with the text area. Within this box, the note number is aligned flushright. The footnote text itself is one block; this block is indented a fixed amount: the publisher wants all indentations (normal paragraphs, blockquotes, footnotes) to be identical; let's say 16pt. I played with the parameters of \setupnotedefinition and \setupfootnotes that Wolfgang taught me yesterday, but I just can't find the right combination. Will wikify!

\setuphead[chapter][style=bold,
number=no,
expansion=yes,

When we think from the bibtex side, it would boil down to
processing the keyword= key (which is already there in
the bibtex specification). You could then order your
publications with terms such as keyword=image
keyword=article etc.
1.)
\startpublicationlist[images] or
\startpublications[images] or ...

And then
\placepublications[list=images]
Then \cite would work in exactly the same way (one would
not need to
provide any extra key to cite itself).
But one would need to think of a proper model to number
the
references. That is: it would have to be configurable to
be able to
either number images with roman instead of arabic
numerals (or with a,
b, c, ...), or to prepend something, like [img1],
[img2], [img3]
instead of [1], [2], [3]. Or simply let the user do in
\cite{figure}[xy], or to number images with numbers
bigger than other
references. For example:
Books:
[1]
[2]
[3]
Articles:
[4]
[5]
[6]
[7]
Images:
[8]
[9]
or
Books:
[1]
[2]
[3]
Articles:
[a1]
[a2]
[a3]
[a3]
Images:
[i1]
[i2]
or any other user-configurable option for numbering ...
However, having a properly designed model is better than
having some
ad-hoc solution that turns out not flexible enough or
clumsy to use
and buggy later on ...
One syntax would be
\placepublications[filter=image,prefix={img.},option=continue,numberconversion=romannumbers]
And yes, something that would allow splitting references
across
sections could just as well be used for this. It just
needs to be
designed properly ... (But section-based bibliography
could work
without any extra key, right?)
And no, please don't count it as bug report. I just
mentioned it
because Hans wanted to have a big bunch of everything
at a single
place.
I suggest to reopen the topic and create exact
specification before
the actual implementation.
Yes, we can discuss it (on or off list) when it will be
implemented.

Jon,
OK, good to know. I'll need a bit more leisure to look at
your example; here are just a few points:
processing an attribute with the 'xml:' namespace has been
fixed by Hans very recently (last weekend), so if you
haven't updated to the latest beta version, please do and
try again; your syntax \xmlsetsetup{#1}{d...@xml:id='a']}
is basically right.
Addressing content that has been set in xml anchors is
possible, but not quite easy. I wouldn't have been able to
figure it out without Hans. Just to show you an example:
here's code that in my TEI document will fetch the content
of a witness list:
\xmlfirst{#1}{root::/TEI/text/front/d...@type=='sigla']/listWit/witne...@xml:id==string.sub('\xmlatt{#1}{wit}',2)]}
The (for you) relevant part is root::/: this is the
topmost level of your TEI xml document. You then traverse
all the elements and drill down to a witness element
whose xml:id attribute is identical to the wit attribute
of your current element. So element wit=#foo will pick
up the content of witness xml:id=foobar/witness and
print bar. This should get you going.
Last point: I don't want to sound negative, but what
you're attempting is not straightforward and certainly not
easy stuff. I am currently planning on doing a long-term
project on editing texts in this manner, and I'm quite
optimistic that all problems can eventually be solved. But
if you need short-term solutions, a perfectly typeset
edition within a matter of weeks, this may not be possible
right away. E.g., I don't think we really have a solid
framework yet for a bilingual edition as you envisage it.
It is possible, but not easy, Hans needs the time and many
test cases to make the code work. There is a research
group here in Germany (with public funding) who are
currently working on xml printing of material of exactly
this type. I can assure you that for the time being,
there's nothing out there which comes even close to
ConTeXt in this area, but we're still at the beginning.
So: if you want to help and test and be part of this, you
are more than welcome, but none of us has a magic bullet;
this is work in progress, not drop-in solutions.
All best
Thomas

[NTG-context] xml: test for attribute

find a solution: I want to test whether a xml tag has an
attribute and vary the typeset content accordingly. There
used to be \xmldoifelseempty, but that has been commented
out (lxml-ini.mkiv). What else could I use? Here's a small
test that shows what I'm trying to do:
\startbuffer[test]
a
bsome text/b
b important=differentmore text/b
/a
\stopbuffer
\startxmlsetups xml:testsetups
\xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{a|b}{xml:*}
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlregistersetup{xml:testsetups}
\startxmlsetups xml:a
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xml:b
\xmldoifelse{#1}{./[...@important]}
%\doifemptyelse{\expanded{\xmlatt{#1}{important}}}

[NTG-context] mkiv: append to buffer
Hi all,
i guess this is easy, but I can't find an example to help
me: I want to write a macro that will collect one of its
arguments in a buffer and then collect the other argument
in a buffer. Difficult to make a minimal example since I
don't know how to do this, so here is some pseudo-code;
this is what I want to achieve:
\definebuffer[MyBuffer]
\def\MyGreatMacro#1#2#3%
{\item[#1] #2 \par
\appendtobuffer{MyBuffer}{\in[#1] #3}}
\starttext
\startitemize
\MyGreatMacro{1}{aa}{AA}
\MyGreatMacro{2}{bb}{BB}
\stopitemize
\page
\getbuffer[MyBuffer]
\resetbuffer[MyBuffer] % so I can reuse the buffer
\stoptext
What I want to do with this is typeset exercises for my
students, with an itemization for problems and solutions
which use the same numbering. In real life, this will
involve xml, but I will try and figure that out myself
once I know how to use buffers...
It looks like buffers.collectcontent should be able to do
this, but I can't figure out how to use it. Any pointers?
Thanks a lot!
All best

Wolfgang
Aditya, Wolfgang, thanks for your replies. I didn't want
to bore the list with lengthy explanations, but maybe I
didn't give enough information. So here comes what I hope
are the relevant bits: I'm typesetting sheets with
problems and solutions for a class. Those come from an xml
database. Unfortunately, there is one catch: depending on
the type of the problem, some problems don't have an
explicit solution. The problems are typeset as a numbered
itemization on page 1; on page 2, I want the solutions,
with matching numbers. And since I'm lazy, I don't want to
take care of this myself but have context do it for me. So
let's begin with the output. I want:
PROBLEMS
1. problem without solution
2. problem with solution
3. problem without solution
4. problem with solution
and then, on a new page:
SOLUTIONS
2. solution to 2
4. solution to 4
So: I have been trying to write a macro that will retrieve
problems from the database (successful, with help by
Hans), pack them in an itemize list (successful), and
store the solution somewhere so it can be typeset on the
next page (unsuccessful as yet). I thought buffers were
the natural way to go, but I must admit I didn't know
about tokenlists. Aditya's suggestion unfortunately
doesn't seem to work with itemizations. Test files:
This works:
\newtoks\mytoks
\def\TestMacro#1#2#3%
{\color[darkred]{#1} \color[darkblue]{#2}\endgraf
\appendtoks \color[darkgreen]{#3} \to\mytoks}
\starttext
\TestMacro{A}{B}{C}
\TestMacro{X}{Y}{Z}
\hairline
\the\mytoks
and this doesn't:
\newtoks\mytoks
\def\TestMacro#1#2#3%
{\item[#1] #2\par
\appendtoks \in[#1]: {#3} \to\mytoks}
\starttext
\startitemize[n]
\TestMacro{A}{B}{C}
\TestMacro{X}{Y}{Z}
\stopitemize
\hairline
\the\mytoks
I have absolutely no preference for buffers or
itemizations or whatever, so if there's a better solution,
I'm all open. But for the time being, I don't get what I
want. I'll look into context.tobuffer next...
Thanks for any suggestions, and best wishes

[NTG-context] Interesting package for XeTeX
Hi all, on ctt, I just saw an annoucement for a xe(la)tex package which I found quite interesting. Here's the description: Location on CTAN: /macros/xetex/latex/ucharclasses This package addresses one of the few features where TeX still has to play catch-up to word processing programs: automatic font switching for different languages. In fact, it goes one better than word processing programs and comes with macros for inserting arbitrary code between text from different unicode blocks, by making use of XeTeX's little known intercharclass behaviour. I was wondering: is something similar possible in mkiv yet? I know that with the font fallback mechanism, it's trivial to change fonts for unicode ranges, but is it possible to change hyphenation patterns (or even insert arbitrary code) according to unicode blocks? Would be quite helpful for those of us working with different scripts.

[NTG-context] updating in texlive
Hi all,
a Happy New Year to all of you! Here's a small question:
from time to time, as a mental exercise (and because I
like a backup), I try to bring my texlive installation up
to date. I have copied these relevant files over from my
minimal tree:
- luatex binary
- mtxrun
- texmfcnf.lua (with modifications, of course)
then unzipped the latest ConTeXt. Everything works - but I
get no hyphenation. For a simple test file like:
\mainlanguage[en]
\starttext
\hyphenatedword{philosophically}
\stoptext
I see in the log file
mkiv lua stats : loaded patterns - en::2
but no hyphenation is given. in a run with the minimals, I
see:
mkiv lua stats : loaded patterns - en::2
mkiv lua stats : language load time - 0.155 seconds ,
nofpatterns: 1
(the last line is not present in the log from texlive). I
don't see anything wrong in cont-en.log, so I wonder how I
can find out why the patterns are not applied?
All best
Thomas

It is strange, as the update process finds the other

it is probably a side effect of files being renamed,
i.e. the new name is mkiv while the old one is tex; in
that case the file database has to be rebuild (using
mtxrun --generate); it can also happen when there are new
files added
so, the main question is: why isn't mtxrun --generate
run?
Hans
Yes, I have encountered this problem many times during the
last weeks. Aborting the format-making, rerunning mtxrun
--generate works too, after that, all the files that have
been flagged before are found. So the question is: is
mtxrun --generate maybe run too early in the process,
before all the files are copied into their place?

It's just when you think about the complexity of a system like context which runs on many different platforms, which involves a number of programming languages, which passes names to and fro in temporary files and commands - I just would advise to stick to characters which you can be sure will be parsed correctly by all parts involved. If you want to know a bit more about it, have a look at all the efforts Hans makes to sanitize font names so they will be found in the mkiv font database; taking out all the spaces and periods and whatnot.

Hi Thomas, you gave me exactly the same hint last week. Not only that, but someone gave exactly the same hint to Jean in December... We should add criterium=cite and criterium=text to the Wiki (Bibliography MKIV page: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography_mkiv). You are of course right, but I assume Hans is working on bibliographies right now (he promised to finish something which I need for a project in March, so that leaves him another two weeks ;-), so we should maybe wait a bit. criterium=cite should work as well, but doesn't right now. In the beginning it was not clear to me, that http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography refers to the MKII implementation of Taco. Therefore, I would suggest to rename Bibliography to Bibliography_mkii and create an alias Bibliography that redirects to Bibliography_mkiv instead. In the wiki pages Bibliography_mkiv and Bibliography_mkii the first sentence should state that the page is related to mkii/mkiv only and link to the other page. Do you think this is reasonable? I had begun rewriting the page. There is now http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliographies which links to the other pages, and which is linked to on the front page. But another context-related project kept me away from this and I never finished this, so fell free to shuffle and rewrite things! I would like to add a section on customising bibstyle files and add space for sharing reference styles of different journals. What do you think? Again, that's a very good idea, but we should maybe wait just a bit till the dust settles a bit. In general I find it difficult to differentiate between mkiv and mkii related information in the wiki. How could we better structure the wiki to make it easier for the reader? Disambiguation pages, mkiv/mkii sections, independent pages with mkiv/mkii in headerline? Just my 2 cents on this: difficult, because you won't be able to make everybody happy. Every now and then, I see a new user on the list who asks about installing mkiv and doesn't realize that it is not really something which you have to install additionally. We shouldn't scare those users because in so many cases, mkii and mkiv are exactly identical, so that would be an arguments against a too stric separation. But of course you're also right that it's frustrating for users if they can't find relevant information for the areas where the two differ. As long as mkiv hasn't settled, this is not easy...

The appearance of LaTeX documents isn't perfect but it produces reasonably high-quality results suitable for complex technical documents right out of the box of the box without any tweaking, whereas ConTeXt requires (at least it did for me) some trouble to set it up for the first time. To some extent this is not because of the merit of the LaTeX design itself but the fact that it is familiar and therefore highly readable to someone used to reading it. It is also the point of departure for a LaTeX user wanting to convert to using ConTeXt; hence, i would imagine many such people would prefer to tweak a LaTeX-like document appearance to better suit their needs rather than starting with something quite different. Certainly, this was the case for me; being basically satisfied with my LaTeX documents but wanting more control and the option to use the advanced features of ConTeXt. Having sample set-up code that emulated LaTeX would have eased the initial transition for me. Pardon my French, but this thread is getting less and less useful, probably because it addresses too many issues at a time. It is rapidly degenerating from a how to restructure the garden into a things I wish others would do so my life becomes easier. If someone says I added a section to the wiki which explains which ConTeXt settings will give a document equivalent to LaTeX XXX class, fine - I would consider this superfluous, but it may help some people. But even strongly agreeing that somebody else should write a tutorial isn't getting any work done. And the assumption that most or all ConTeXt users are, at their heart, LaTeX renegades is not true, I think. Many advanced users haven't used LaTeX ever or in a long time and wouldn't want to waste their time on learning it just for the sake of such a comparison.

when i use \cite[...][reference...] instead of

strange.
Why is that strange? \cite{...} isn't context syntax. I
don't find it surprising that wrong usage triggers an
error.

Only one suggestion doesn't work for me; inserting the #305; (it looks like an HTML code not ConTeXt code!?) in my source file. Well, I prefer to use \dotlessi and \i, and don't like #305 or \char0131, because I'm not very good at remembering number codes! As Mojca already pointed out, I meant typing the character directly. I'm using a web mail interface which unfortunately replaces the character with this strange entity.

I actually used the tlmgr to add the modules from tlcontrib.metatex.org/2010 which includes taspresent. I did try the commands you gave and none of them seem to work on my system. I may need to locate the web2/xetex/cont-en.fmt as you suggested. Hi Ismael, for starters, call texexec from the command line, not from within an editor, this will give you more info and will make it easier to help. Giving us the output of which texexec and kpsewhere -engine=/ cont-en.fmt might already be helpful. And don't use the taspresent module, it has been superseded by simpleslides.

I installed like I always do with the following two commands: rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . ./first-setup.sh --extras=all I always do this in a new directory on a Linux system. I'm purplexed. Bart Did you try and run mtxrun --generate manually? If this doesn't help: last week, I encountered a similar problem on linux-ppc. I was completely baffled because mtxrun always reported that it couldn't find anything. In the end, I discovered that the luatex binary was missing the execute bit. So check this as well.
