As a short term measure, I have included
\def\linklisttoelement#1#2#3#4#5% % list location format page data
{\gotonextinternal\currentlist{#2}{#4}{#5}}
into my document and got the menu I wanted – no spurious numbers any
more and the hyperlinks do work. YMMV.
Technical discussion (probably should go to the dev-list):
Since I have no clear view of where else the code is used, I'm not sure
whichplace to fix, but the definition (and comment) of
\linklisttoelement and \gotonextinternal do not agree on what to print:
Note that the comment here refers to a fifth argument which does not exist:
\def\linklisttoelement#1#2#3#4% % list location format page data
{\gotonextinternal\currentlist{#1}{#3}{#4}}
Therefore, \gotonextinternal in its fourth argument gets the page
number. It expects “text” in there and dutifully passes it to
\gotorealpage, where it is printed.
your patch will break the list handler; a quick glance learns me that in the
following case we have one arg too much (some time ago i cleaned up part of the
list macros and it seems that this indirect call was not done).

Should not that have been done when i unzipped every thing or is it done on purpose (To me it looks like the peltk folder in texmf\context). In the latest TDS specs, scripts now reside under the ../scripts path instead of under package entries (like ../context). One way to locate a script used to be to call 'kpsewhich' with the format 'other text files' but now the format is 'texmfscripts'. The consequence of this is, that (combined with moved enc and map files in combination with strict paths in the texmf.cnf files), tex distributions are not downward compatible. The assumption is more or less that users reinstall the whole lot and don't have their own fonts and such -) Another change is the flattening of format suffixes to fmt (so make sure that you remove the efmt ones when you update binaries); although the spec suggests the usage of an $engine subpath (in order to distinguish formats) it looks like distributions will not implement this (too difficult). The way context deals with that is the following: - you can use texmfstart (ruby script, win binary at our website) to launch a resource (document, script. whatever is supported) - you can use textools --fixtexmftree to convert an old to a new tree - you can use --engine (or set the var in texexec.ini) to use the $engine subpath conforming the TDS structure [unfortunately it looks like the $engine subpath will not be supported by texmf.cnf file; so much for standards] alternatively, one can (manually) adapt the texmf.cnf file (or have a partial copy in your local tree) that extends the enc + map paths to the old locations Launching a script, can be done indirectly, using texmfstart, like texmfstart texexec.pl ... args ... or one can make a small stub, for instance: texmfstart --make texexec.pl and move the resulting bat file in one of your bin path. The texmfstart route is supposed to work with the old and new trees and future trees (since I will try to keep texmfstart downward compatible). [on unix, it's hard to distinguish files by type, i.e. texexec can be a stub, perl script, binary, whatever; in this case, texmfstart will create a Note that distributions have different means of locating scripts and resources, in which case you depend on the integrety of a distribution. In case of problems, you can always replace the stubs by texmfstart based stubs. Because of testing for tex live (which is the reference cross platfoirm tex distribution), i package the zips in the new structure and this means that users who have old trees and binaries may run into problems when they mix things. [these changes in the enc/map file locations may give users who have their own font trees some headaches; also, if you use scripts in your own scripting tools e.g. in server apps, then you should be aware of the fact that locating scripts needs patches, i.e. the format fed to kpsewhich; here i have so many scripts that i don't put them all in the path, for instance because of name clashes, and i used to use kpsewhich to locate them; using texmfstart in such cases is more future safe, and with the coming new kpse run-as-deamon libraries it may become faster as well] Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Question: what command should i use to define this head to use the karat
typeface above as its style ?
...,style={\switchtobodyfont[karat]\bfc},...
or, when no math is used,
\setupbodyfont[karat]
\definefont[MyPartFont][SansBold at 24pt]
\setuphead[part][style=\MyPartFont]
you could also add more faces to:
\starttypescript [karat]
\definetypeface [gold] [rm] [serif][gold] [default] [encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [karat] [ss] [sans] [karat] [default] [encoding=texnansi]
\stoptypescript
and then (say that the body font is rm (gold)), do
\setuphead[part][style=\ss\bfd]
etc etc

Hi, I am trying to keep my context up-to-date, and so I installed the
new cont-tmf in my ~/texmf directory, and I get the following:

Not enough arguments for mkdir at /usr/people/pm/bin/texexec line 2259,

Execution of /usr/people/pm/bin/texexec aborted due to compilation

Hi,
please have a look at testfile below:
without a footnote everything works fine,
but with the footnote the columnset gets crashed!
this is a tricky situation:
- the note is built in one column mode
- but flushed in column mode (dus to postponing)
- so actually what you see is a mixture
you may try:
\starttext
\chapter{Heading\notesymbol[x]}
\definecolumnset[litera][n=2,distance=1cm]
\startcolumnset[litera]
\footnotetext[x]{xx}\dorecurse{10}{test \input zapf \input ward}

\chapter{Heading\notesymbol[x]}
\stopcolumnsetspan
\footnotetext[x]{xx}\dorecurse{10}{test \input zapf \input ward}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
I noticed this bug in a bigger book project:
The columnset is at the end as a seperate document (\component).
And the footnote was added 300 pages and 5 component files before !!!
As this footnote was one of the last changes that were done
before I wanted to send the book to the printer
a fast help would be very much appreciated.
Sorry, but it's really quite urgent -

Exactly, \starttyping does exactly that what you don't want: it disables
math and expansion of TeX commands.
Also, perhaps my request is simply an option of \startlines
which keep not only the lines break, but also the first
spaces of each line (in a verbatim font fors these space)
In plain TeX you have a command \obeyspaces (apart from \obeylines).
Nevertheless, whitespaces at the beginning of line are ignored when
using \obeyspaces, so you additionally need to write an escaped
whitespace '\ ' or \strut at the beginning of line (I guess there's a
more efficient solution for that, but I'm no expert).
But if you really only need whitespace at the beginning of line,
probably make something like:
\def\tab{\strut\hbox to 3em{}} % or any other size instead 3em
instead of using \obeyspaces and simply put \tab where you need a
certain amount of white space.
Mojca
Using eplain.tex you can say:
\verbatim
|endverbatim
(note bar instead of backslash.)
If you need a vertical bar in the verbatim text then just double it.
Anything in between including blank spaces and lines is printed verbatim.
Context used to complain about one non-critical statement in the eplain file.
Actually it complains about the following statement but you can easily spot
the troublemaker. Delete it and eplain works fine with Context. Latest
versions of eplain may already have the fix, haven't tested them.

if you want to move things around in an encoding neutral way:

Re: [NTG-context] shading in meta[post/play] PDF
Mojca Miklavec wrote:
Problem description:
I have a computer program, which carries the data about the grid points
on a sphere (possibly with different colors defined in these points) and
how the points are connected with each other to form a grid. I would
take these triangles (or quadrilaterals), draw them transformed on the
plane (with curves, not with straight lines) and fill them with the
appropriate shading pattern (colors defined in corners of the triangles
(darker according to normal vector) simply interpolated between the
three points). Yet another possibility would probably be to use
function-based shading and define a function which knows how the points
have to be shaded on the sphere, but the latter seems more complicated
and less universal.
Problem reduction:
Fill a mp closed path with any more complex shading.
So I would probably need Type 6 or 7 shading (Type 4 would be OK as the
picture can be clipped within metapost, so that the resulting sphere
borders are not composed of straight lines; the articles on
http://www.math.ubc.ca/people/faculty/cass/graphics/text/www/ which
inspired me to do something so crazy actually use Type 4 shading). Type
one is probably the most general one, so it should be OK too, just
complicated to do.
However: I'm not sure if, say, a (sampled) function to be passed to PDF
can be specified in metapost elegantly.
i searched my machine extensively but it seems that i lost some code that could
be used as starting point for that;
Page 746 of PDF Reference, version 1.6 also defines an interesting new
feature: 3D objects (3D Artwork as they call it), but I haven't found
anything else about that.
there is a section about shading, the function numbers differ;
In dvipdfm there's an example of using:
\special{pdf: bt rotate 90 xscale 2.0 }
These lines are to be used in TeX. MetaPost also knows a special
command, I just don't know how to use it. (This is probably the
communication channel to PDF when trying to implement some more exotic
shadings.)
take a look at supp-mpe.tex, all we need is some variant on
\defineMPspecial{31}
{\startMPshading{16}% type 3
\setMPshadingcolors{4}{5}{6}{10}{11}{12}%
\immediate\pdfobj
{/FunctionType 2
/Domain [\gMPs1 \gMPs2]
/C0 [\MPshadeA]
/C1 [\MPshadeB]
/N \gMPs3}%
\immediate\pdfobj
{/ShadingType 3
/ColorSpace /\MPshadeC\space
/Function \the\pdflastobj\space 0 R
/Coords [\gMPs7 \gMPs8 \gMPs9 \gMPs{13} \gMPs{14} \gMPs{15}]
/Extend [true true]}%
\stopMPshading}
(plus some more depending on what parameters need to be passed)
I glimpsed the mp-spec.mp file, but I didn't yet understand how the
parameters are passed to PDF.
[more a context mailing list issue than a metapost list issue]
So I left the metapost group out. Actually, 90% on the people here
probably think I posted that to the wrong group anyway (in the sense of

I am looking for a way of writing some home exercises in my Russian
course in ConTeXt. However, so far I have not succeed with it. Should
it work out of the box without installing any new fonts (I am having
the fonts from a full install of TeXLive2003 now)? I have looked a bit
in the source files for context, but with no luck.
well, i just took a look in the latest tex tree, and i cannot find a trace of
the russian fonts that are defined in abundance in context's type-enc.tex; one
problem with russian is that nobody seems to be responsible to get all the right
stuff on tex live;
Based on the definitions, the following should work (and is reported to work):
\starttext
\definetypeface [latin]
[rm] [serif] [latin-modern] [default] [encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface [russian]
[rm] [serif] [computer-modern] [default] [encoding=cyr] % t2a
\latin \dostepwiserecurse{`a}{`z}{1}{\char\recurselevel} \endgraf
\russian \dostepwiserecurse{`a}{`z}{1}{\char\recurselevel} \endgraf
\stoptext
In order to get it working i suggest those using russian to do the following:
- determine what encodings are *really* in use
- collect the tfm/vf/pfb files that are needed to get that done
- build me the right map files
(i probably involves some fonts from cmsuper; so ... what is the reasonable
subset that we need; if needed we can stick to a few reasonable sized (as we do
with greek); it's mostly the math that is sensitive to design sizes)
we can then make a proper subset for (1) tex live and (2) the minimal context
distribution; even better would be to have those glyohs needed to be added to
the latin modern fonts [i can look into that later]
I guess there are different ways to achieve this, however, since I
also want some swedish text in the same documents, the best would
probably be if one of the following options worked:
the simpliest is to switch font and language at the same time (but i cannot test
anything if i have no fonts running on my sytstem]
1) Typing everything in utf8, and get the different languages
automatically when compiling.
currently the utf handler does not change fonts, but since language switches are
to be given anyway, it can be hooked into the language handler if needed
2) Typing everything with western letters, having some kind of
\startrussia Boris \stoprussia and get Boris typeset with Cyrillic

Just language+font switches using the typeface macros.

Re: [NTG-context] Using LateX packages

Hi,

hm, not complex but mostly calls to latex font switches ans such
Is there some way to use LaTex Packages (I guess not).
so you need to rewrite it
Is there documentation about writing ConTeXt modules? (I didn't find any).
- try to use high level constructs (or ask me to provide them -)
- only use low level macroe documented in syst-*.tex and supp-*.tex (the ones
mentioned in \macros, not the \dododo things)
- think fresh, forget about how other packages do it, think about what *you*
want / need
- user modules are prefixed with t- (m- x- p- and s- are reserved for core
modules and styles)
Now, about your code beautifier. Since you end up with additional markup anyway,
why not go XML. You can then embed that in you tex document as usual (and have
the full power of context available) but also use the code in webpages.

Hallo Hans and other ConTeXters,
I have started to collect and clean up Czech ConTeXt localization. And I
have discovered that Tomas Hudec includeded Czech (non-trivial) sorting
rules into texutils.pl (calling czsort.pl from Jan Pazdziora).
Unfortunately it was not incorporated into official ConTeXt disribution.
Hans, what is your prefereble solution in case of local sorting rules? I
know, there is \definesortkey, but this mechanism is insufficient for
Czech. I think that calling external Perl sorting routine is a suitable
solution. If so, it can be incorporated into current version? Files are
attached.
in order to do that:
- the pm code should move into texutil
- we should find a way to hook the switch into texexec
now, apart from such an effort, i think we should rethink sorting;
- no funny encodings which demands the sorter to be encoding aware
- no locale dependencies
- readable sorting code -)
steps:
- write named glyphs to the output:
- no longer use direct code in definecommand and defineaccent, i.e.
- define the fallbacks as 'definecharacter ones'
the last two steps actually come first (since adam l. is quite fluent in the
character names and such, i guess that the both of us need to look into that and
do that in 'one move'); after that i can rewrite the sort/index code to become
aware of named glyphs and languages, and we can then plug in language specific
sorting rules [taking care of xml at teh same time]
[it's worth considering to drop the non etex code]
named glyphs are not so much a problem, but we need to clean up the
fallback encoding defs a bit in order to prevent funny expansion

There is actually a nice small tool TeXML (at sourceforge) that takes
care of this problem. It allows you to use an XML to issue TeX commands,
and then converts those commands into TeX (or LaTeX or ConText). It
takes care of white space.
I am one of those people who likes to stick to XML tools, who likes to
convert a tree to a tree. I was wondering the best way to do this. It
seems that using TeXML is the best way. I just wanted to make sure there
was not a more direct way in ConTeXt.

Re: [NTG-context] texfont problem on windows
Duncan Hothersall wrote: I'm using the minimal windows installation of ConTeXt, texsync'ed today. The vptovf.exe program as used by the texfont script seems to have a version mismatch. It throws an error saying that it can't find tl80kpse.dll. In fact the version in the minimal tree is tl90kpse.dll. This means that texfont can't install new fonts, since no virtual font files are created. I'm sure I can work around this either by updating my local vptovf.exe or finding the relevant dll on the web somewhere, but it should probably be fixed in the tree if possible. Thanks! i'll have a look; there has been a moment when vptovf was a copy of vftovp in the source tree or bin tree of tl, and so i just copied the old one in my tree; afaik this has been solved Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] encoding problem
Was this problem solved? If not, the problem may be in not loading a map file;
typescripts take care of this.
btw, one you see the light, typescripts are not that hard, see examples in wiki,
Bill M's font page and Adam L's myways.
Hans
Hello,
I'm working on some XSL stylesheets for translating XML documents into
Context. Although I've read the document Fonts in Context and
understood that one could use typescripts for managing fonts, in the
context of my stylesheets I'd rather like to stick to the
\definebodyfont command, because so far it works and I'm a bit confused
about all those indirections one has to use when defining typescripts.
The only thing which doesn't seem to work are font encodings. Please,
take a look at the following document:
%
\enableregime[il1]
\mainlanguage[de]
\language[de]
\setupencoding[default=texnansi]
\definefontsynonym[NewCenturySchoolbook][pncr8r][encoding=texnansi]
\definebodyfont[4pt,5pt,6pt,7pt,8pt,9pt,10pt,11pt,12pt,14.4pt,17.3pt][rm]
[tf=NewCenturySchoolbook sa 1]
\definefont[nctr][NewCenturySchoolbook at 10pt]
\setupbodyfont[10pt]
\starttext
{\nctr \showcharacters}
{\showcharacters}
\stoptext
%
Defining the font directly with \definefont leads to a
texnansi-encoded table of characters, so that I could use the special
German umlaut characters (which is my intention, of course). The
definition of the font with \definebodyfont produces a default-encoded
table with characters, which are *not* texnansi-encoded, because all the
umlaut characters are missing. At least using Windows XP, TexLive 2004
distribution (MikTeX). I don't understand why this happens for two reasons:
1. Both commands (\definebodyfont and \definefont) use the same synonym
for the font, with an explicitely defined texnansi-encoding.
2. The default encoding of the whole document was set to texnansi.
It is getting even more disturbing when I'm setting the body font size
to 12pt. (Using the command \setupbodyfont[12pt]). Then both tables are
showing a texnansi-encoded font. What has font size to do with encodings?
Since I don't want to use a body font size of 12pt in all of my
documents, only to be able to use German umlaut characters, any hints to
what I'm doing wrong here would be appreciated very much.
Thanks in advance,
Stefan Ohletz

Re: [NTG-context] lettrine.sty, but not LaTeX
Taco Hoekwater wrote:
basically you want to follow a shape; this is not that hard to
implement so i can have a look at it; lettrines is then an instance of it
Lettrine is easier than that, actually. I thought this would be quite
funny, so here is a brand new module called t-lettri.tex, and an example.
ah, nice, so, lettrines only does a slanted shape?
i played a bit with shapes last night and will probably add something to the
drop macros, and probably also move the code to core-fnt; but it will be a bit
more complex and take some more time; it's a good testbed for playing with
things like glyph shape similarity and such; also, proper alignment is an issue.
(i attached supp-fu3.tex, no production code, just for fun)
concerning your module, maybe we should introduce a new category of modules,
e.g. c-lettrines.tex with x meaning 'converted'; we can then collect them in
another zip;
remark 1:
\sbox is already definined and in use,
i remember someone telling me that this \hbox{{#1}} stuff is needed to satisfy
latex's color mechanism, but that's not needed in context, so a simple
\setbox\Lettrinetbox{}
is not only even more efficient in terms of tokens and performance (unnoticable)
but also does not clash with the core macro.
remark 2:
auto-lettrines (dropcaps etc) are kind of complex in the sense that it's not
trivial to pick up the first 'something' in a paragraph in a robust way [we may
want some extension to tex for that (so we have something to discuss during our
trip to eurotex -)

It couldn't work. Here is a new version, with fixed image support,
some cleanups in the code, and support for per-argument setup
functionality as provided by \LettrineOptionsFor{...} in LaTeX
The one thing I could not/did not solve is how to make ConTeXt shut
up about 'bodyfont 112.5pt is defined (can better be done global)'.
just do something
in setup: LettrineFont = Serif
in code: \definedfont[Serif at ...]

what happens when you say:
\en \hyphenatedword{somethingverylong}
when generating a format, are patterns loaded?
if not, make sure that in cont-usr.tex the us hyphenation filename matches the
one on your system,
ushyph1.tex
ushyph2.tex
ushyphen.tex
hyphen.tex
unfortunately those names change per distribution, year, season, user, blow of
the winds, etc
[in a next release, already in alpha, you can use different methods, see
hyphenation document on web site]

Try this: \showhyphens{hyphenation}

on your terminal. If it doesn't, ConTeXt refuses the hyphenate
English, possibly because the patterns were not loaded in the
format (in that case, updating your ConTeXt is the easiest
solution).
the idea behind the language file posted some time ago is that we can create a
testbed;
[i can imagine that taco/patrick work out something for the mirror/wiki that
unpacks the cont-tmf zip, tests format generation and missing things; kind of
user download simulation]
also, karl berry (tug, tex live, everything tex) is willing to set up a tex live
related testbed for testing if that distributions are shipped 'correct', so if
you have test files ...
