[NTG-context] Is it possible to \cite with UPPERCASED author?
Is it possible to \cite with author in UPPERCASE without touch in my bib file? I couldn't find a tip about this, I already read Bib mod manual.

Longer answer: bib mod manual, section 2.3, \setupcite. You can hook
something like \bgroup\WORD and \egroup into the left= and right= keys.
It didn't solve, because when I have an author et al, results in AUTHOR
ET AL, that is not the expected.
(Untested and no real explanation since you didn't provide an example.)
Sorry, I really didn't think it was necessary. But with sample code in
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography_mkiv I can explain.

I expected that is typeset HAGEN and HAGEN (2010a) and (HAGEN, 2010a)

Ah, yes. I'm setuping my own style. As I'm not so good with TeX (if this could be in Lua, will be perfect), I'm using apa, that is the closest to my style. So, all right, I'll try to customize my style, that is the only good solution to this. Thanks by attention, Thomas. -- Wagner Macedo On 10 February 2012 09:40, Thomas A.

1. Edit a local copy of cont-au.bst and insert a function that will make
the author name uppercase. bst is infamous for its incomprehensible syntax,
but it appears to be possible. this would be the proper way. google is your
friend here.
Yes, very incomprehensible. And another thing, I couldn't find any
authoryear word inside bst files. I think it usefulness is only for
publications list.
2. ConTeXt produces a .bbl file from which it retrieves the
bibliographical information. The authorname used in the \cite command is
captured in a key=value of the form
a={{Hagen}},
Write a simple lua script which will make the captured name uppercase and
write everything out to a new file. Then, in your preamble, replace the
\setupbibtex[database=...] line with
\usepublications[name.bbl]
So this is something you would do at the very end of the editing process,
when you're sure that all the references are in the bbl file.
Thank you. It's the best solution to my problem. But I'll do a Python or
Bash script to do this, as I'm more used to those languages, and I'll add
as a target on my Makefile.
It may also be possible to hook a lua function into the process when
ConTeXt typesets the value from the bbl, but that's beyond my knowledge,
Hans is the only one who knows the internals of the mkiv bib mechanism well
enough to say if/how this may work.
I found something into bibl-bib.lua, and I tried to change but didn't
result in anything. So, it's a black box.

Re: [NTG-context] How to make Figure captions justify if long?
In your example, the caption is limited to image width.
What I want is something as
\setupcaption[figure][width=\textwidth, align=middle]
does. But long texts should behave as document text (hyphenated, including).
Thanks by attention.

Hello, The title is not self explaining, I'll try to do this. My layout style require that table or figure captions stay centered only if short.

Thanks by the answer, but I had already thought in this. I would like something more definitive. By the way, at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Reference/en/setupcaptions I can see a command argument. I was wondering if a custom command can do the trick, but I don't know how I should use this arg and what it is for. -- Wagner Macedo On 8 February 2012 21:43, Marco net...@lavabit.com wrote: I don't know if I get you right, but I think you are talking about the width of the caption. It adaptes to the with of the figure. There is the “minwidth” parameter for \setupcaptions, but since the short captions will not be centred it's probably not what you aim for.

Re: [NTG-context] Command \thanks from LaTeX
Good tip, but has some drawbacks.
1) It doesn't work on context current (2011.05.18 18:04). Instead a mark,
is displayed a normal numbered footnote.
2) On beta (2012.01.12 11:03), it's not displaying the symbol mark in the
text. The footnote is visible, but not the mark.
3) It can only be used with one author, because a second \footnote[+] is
typeset with the same symbol.

[NTG-context] Command \thanks from LaTeX
Hello,
Searching for a \thanks equivalent command on ConTeXt, I ended up on
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/LaTeX_Thanks.
But I didn't like that solution, because the author footnote is placed on a
new area instead the same as text footnotes.
So I made a simple solution, that the author footnotes is placed in the
same area and doesn't interfere on real counter. I want here to share my
solution, below you can see it.
\definestartstop[author]
[before={\savenumber[footnote]
\resetnumber[footnote]
\start
\let\thanks\footnote
\setupfootnotes[numberconversion=set 2]},
after={\stop
\restorenumber[footnote]}]
It can be used as that:
\startauthor
Wagner Macedo\thanks{Brazilian citizen}
\stopauthor
Of course, I could did a \author command, but I generally prefer to use
start/stop blocks.
What do you think? This could be improved?

I'm relatively quite new to TeX world. This is my first message to list. I
hope you understand me, English isn't my mother language.
I'm trying to use a variable set by \setvariable in Lua. I tried some
combinations, based on manual but I couldn't succeed. The code below
exemplifies what I wanted to do.
\starttext
\setvariable{namespace}{var}{Some context}
\ctxlua{
local s = context.getvariable(namespace, var)
if s == then
...
else
...
end
}
\stoptext
I know that I can use some of \if* TeX commands, but coding in Lua is
better to me.

Re: [NTG-context] CLD: context.getvariable as Lua variable
Firstly, thanks by answer.
The second way is nice, but could be generic (e.g. save any variable in a
namespace)?

What you’re trying is not possible but there are other ways to check the
content of the variable in Lua.
\startluacode
userdata = userdata or { }
function userdata.checkvariable(variable)
if variable == then
context(EMPTY)
else
context(NOT EMPTY)
end
end
\stopluacode
\setvariable{wagner}{name}{Wagner Macedo}
\starttext
\ctxlua{userdata.checkvariable(\getvariable{wagner}{name})}
% This does only with \startlua or \ctxlua
\startlua
local name = \getvariable{wagner}{name}
if name == then
context(No Text)
else
name = Name: .. name
context(name)
end
\stoplua
\stoptext
A different method is to save the \setvariables entries in a Lua table and
check the entries of the table.
\startluacode
userdata= userdataor { }
userdata.macedo = userdata.macedo or { }
userdata.macedo.data = { }
function userdata.macedo.savevariables(variables)
userdata.macedo.data = variables
end
function userdata.macedo.checkvariables()
local variables = userdata.macedo.data
-- check for name
if variables.name == then
context(Name: No name set)
context.par()
else
context(Name: ..variables.name)
context.par()
end
-- check for address
if variables.address == then
context(Address: No address set)
context.par()
else
context(Address: ..variables.address)
context.par()
end
end
\stopluacode
\starttexdefinition SaveVariables
\startlua
userdata.macedo.savevariables{
name= \getvariable{macedo}{name},
address = \getvariable{macedo}{address},
}
\stoplua
\stoptexdefinition
\setvariables[macedo][set=\SaveVariables]
\starttext
\setvariables[macedo][name=Wagner Macedo]
\ctxlua{userdata.macedo.checkvariables()}
\setvariables[macedo][address=Secret]
\ctxlua{userdata.macedo.checkvariables()}
\stoptext

Re: [NTG-context] CLD: context.getvariable as Lua variable
Don't worry. It's not needed. I just wanted to avoid mix Lua and TeX codes.
I will survive using:
local s = \getvariable{namespace}{var}
Thank you by attention.

It would require a different method because \setvariables doesn’t provide
information about the values which are set. Can you describe what do you
want to achieve and I can try to provide a better solution.

Re: [NTG-context] Inline itemize
As I know, yes, this is the intended behavior. You should be thinking in a WYSIWYG way, but TeX, as most languages (except Python, that I know) works apart you write every code in one line or write pretty indented. I hope you understood. -- Wagner Macedo 2012/1/5 Vianney le Clément vleclem...@gmail.com If I type Blabla. \startitemize[a,text] \item one \item two \stopitemize Blabla. I get a linebreak before and after the itemize. Is this the intended behaviour? How can I get a fully inline enumeration? ___ 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 ___
Re: [NTG-context] Inline itemize
Ah... sorry. I read the manual but I didn't remember this feature. -- Wagner Macedo On 5 January 2012 20:25, Wolfgang Schuster schuster.wolfg...@googlemail.com wrote: No, this is a bug because with the “text” keyword you can create a inline item which doesn’t start a new paragraph. ___ 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 ___
