[NTG-context] Getting a barred l for all the wrong reasons
Greetings, hopefully this is a real quickie. I'm using XeConTeXt, regime UTF, language en, hoefler encoding uc & receiving a barred l for any instance of this: l/ Which makes it tough to have pairs like centripetal/centrifugal. :) Any clues? Kind regards, David ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
Re: [NTG-context] Getting a barred l for all the wrong reasons
Hi Adam, Yes, the Hoefler text…although not by my choosing ;) The centripetal|/|centriputal "trick" did the trick.

Hoefler text, right? workaround 1) use a different font. :P workaround 2) insert something that would interrupt the ligature being formed, like centripital\hbox{}/centrifugal Which makes it tough to have pairs like centripetal/centrifugal. :) potential solution 3) use the much more ConTeXt-like code: centripetal|/ |centrifugal. Hope one of those is of some help... ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] Bold item separator?
Greetings, I can't seem to get an itemize list to have bold item separators, namely the "R" — UC Roman Numeral series. I bet it's really obvious *grinding teeth*. Anyone give me a clue? Regards, David ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] bib: potential range of bibliography styles?
Greetings all, I'm leaning towards experimenting with the bib module to see if I can arrive at a usable "Semiotics Society of America" reference section, which is a historically layered style, along the lines of: --- PEIRCE, Charles S. 1859. "An Essay on the Limits of Religious Thought Written to Prove That We Can Reason Upon the Nature of God", MS 53, in W1:37-40 1982. Writings of Charles S. Peirce: a Chronological Edition, ed. Max Fisch, Peirce Edition Project. Five volumes. (Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1982-98). TEILHARD de Chardin, Pr. P. 1961. (posthumously). Hymn of the Universe (New York: Harper & Row Torchbooks, English Edition, 1965). 1957. (posthumously). The Divine Milieu (New York: Harper & Row Colophon Books Edition, 1968). --- Aside from all the niggling details (which I'm sure could be worked out), is this kind of layout in general possible—all citations going by year underneath a single instance of the author? …or am I doomed to forever make these by hand? ;) Regards, David ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Excellent, I'll take it up soon!

I you can make it come out like below (all that should be doable using just the documented features of the bib module), then I will help you 'compress' the repeating authors afterwards, ok?

[NTG-context] Centering last line of paragraph
Hi all, For some long-winded subtitles, I need a paragraph shape which has flush sides except the last line, which is centered. I haven't come across any solutions for this... any clues?

I too found that article, but didn't know how to apply it in context. I am using hanging punctuation and hz, which doesn't work within a \startalignment[centerlast] \stopalignment environment (I've tried a few combinations, and also setupalign with all three). Any ideas on this one?
