Re: [NTG-context] common counter
Hallo! I'll try asking my question a little bit different: With \setupnumber[formula] [number=davidsnumber] the origin formulanumber(what is its name?) will be overwritten and replaced by davidsnumber. But with \setupnumber[figure] [number=davidsnumber] the origin figurenumbering remains untouched and davidsnumber gets an additionl counter. So there are the following questions: - Why is this different behaviour? - How can I replace the figurecounter by davidsnumber such, that captions and figuretables will use this new counter? - Are the origin formula/figure-counters compatible with counters defined by \definenumber? Or are they other animals? Wolfgang ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] Layout and textwidth/textmargin
Well, I start from the beginning with odd/even layout setting, and
the

Hallo!
This doesn't work here, too!
The wiki said it should work. So, maybe there ist something broken in
the meantime.
In 'page-lay.tex' I found something with
\setuplayout[odd][state=stop]
\setuplayout[even][state=stop]
so
a.) Not alone \definelayout but also \setuplayout should work with
odd|even.
b.) Because there is something to stop here, there may be some need
to start it?
Btw. \definelayout[1][] doesn't work too.

Re: [NTG-context] some questions
Should'nt \arg{bla} be \type{{bla}}?
I can't give you a satisfying answer for this, but
Should'nt \expandafter\type\expandafter{\arg{bla}} be
\type{{bla}}?
gives
Should?nt \dohandlemathtokenarg{bla} be {bla}?
(so I guess the answer is probably no)
\arg is one of the verbatim macros, like \type, \typ, \tex
and is describte in 'cont-enp.pdf' on page 101.
The description looks a bit incomplete: (the command encloses the
text with .)
(Can someone, with the right to do that, add this to the list of
typos, please?)
The definition of \arg is in 'core-ver.tex' and copying this
in a separate file works as expected:
\starttext

\def\setgroupedtype

Between the gray and the second hor. Line there is a small white

Variant 2:
Hor. Line and green area are .2\textwidth as expected. But gray area
is about .6\textwidth and so is the column as a whole. Why that?

Re: [NTG-context] cdwincontext
If the batch file is still functionally equivalent, it would make sense to include it in the distribution. I vaguely recall that I had removed all of the 'smart' stuff from the batch file to please command.com, making it much less functional, but perhaps that is more an indication of how well I know command.com ;-) As I remember, most, if not all of the smart stuff mentioned has to do with automatic recognition of the install-directory. All this smartness is nice, if things work. In the other cases smartness is a jungle and it would be easier to check a dumb but simple list of set commands. These batch-files for example are not smart enough to recognize if they are running under the right command- prozessor and a normal windows 98 user might be very helpless what had gone wrong.

Schmutztitel.
So you need to add to the \startstandardmakeup[page=yes]. -
Something
Moreover:
page=yes|right|... makes the same page break setting to both
place:
start...matter and stop...matter. I ussually need a different
setting.
For now I am solving it by
\setupsectionblock
[frontpart]
[page=right,
after={\setvalue{\??sb\@@sectionblock\c!page}{}}]
the problem has to do with an overflow of makeup in grid mode (due
to already present mark reset nodes); i uploaded a beta that
(hopefully) corrects the problem (thanks to taco for analyzing that
it was textheight related)
Hans
Good news the bug was fixed.
What I proposed was not related to mentioned error. It just recalled
me
this problem of coupled 'page' option and the need to be split.
Vit
Can you make a little example where a split 'page' option is from
use?

[NTG-context] frontmatter
Hallo! I am trying to use 'standardmakeup' to produce 'Schmutztitel'-page with a following blank page. I think this is what \start\stopstandardmakeup is for (in doublesided environments). But the example bellow has first a blank page and then 'Schmutztitel'. There is a fourth blank page too. - \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided] \setuplayout[ footer=.04\paperheight, %1 grid=yes, %2 marking=on, location=middle, width=middle, height=middle] \starttext \startfrontmatter %3 \startstandardmakeup Schmutztitel \stopstandardmakeup \stopfrontmatter%3 bla \stoptext - My experiments: - a space-char between 'doublesided' and ']' removes the last blank page (strange). - uncommenting the lines in position 1,2,3 exclusivly results in the correct behaviour. I would like to understand what the problem is and why, for example, uncommenting frontmatter solves the problem. I thought frontmatter is the place to do title-things and so.

[NTG-context] cropmarks
Hallo! The following: --- \definepapersize[RM][width=170mm,height=240mm] \setuppapersize [RM][A4] \setuplayout[marking=on, location=middle] \starttext Bla \stoptext --- results in 163mm width and 230mm height. What is wrong here? A second observation: file 'rm.tex' with \startenvironment rm ... \stopenvironment is not found in 'test.tex' with \environment rm ... renaming to 'whatever' helps Wolfgang ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] mswincontext problems
Hi all (esp. windows users), Last night I tried setting up a Win98SE for use with context using mswincontext.zip (I borrowed a laptop for bachotek, so I could not install linux on it ... ). It went terribly wrong. At first I thought it was just the shoddy Win98 install on that machine, but Olivier tells me he also had problems installing the latest mswincontext, so I hope another someone who uses Windows98 can testrun the installation. I got all sort of errors from command.com (syntax error, out of environment space, command not found, permission denied), and the wiki page is definately incomplete so I could not really debug. In the end, I basically gave up. I had problems too! First of all 'command.com' is the wrong command prozessor for the used batch-files. You should have 'cmd.exe'.

Is this normal? Or is this a symptome of the problem I am looking for? it depends on what system you use; the settinsg default to tetex/fptex/gwtex so in that case no ini is needed As I said, I work with the standalone distri? And I thought, the binaries are from fptex, right? And if both texexec.ini's are removed: texexec complains: warning: texexec.ini not found, try 'texexec --verbose' (the same with texexec --verbose) newtexexec.rb (which will replace texexec.pl) has no ini file but uses some heuristics to determine what environment it runs in 'texexec --verbose' tries to compile all the files in the aktuel path. but 'texmfstart texexec.pl --verbose' works ok. same with 'texexec --make --all' doesn't work but 'texmfstart texexec.pl --make --all' works! good upps? texexec (without parameters) compiles cscite.bat! Why? on windows: you need to associate the pl suffix to perl on linux you need to make texexec into a script (suffixless) on both you can best use texmfstart to launch the scripts since that's upward compatible (and in some respects this call is more clever); if needef you can create stubs with texmfstart (see manual) This works! But next Problem: pdfetex can not find pk-fonts. I have written: PKFONTS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/pk// in 'texmf.cnf' font-file lies in texmf-project/fonts/pk/ricoh/local/msl/msl50.pk what else can I do?

ok! I have modified the batch-files. Next Problems: texexec.ini is not found in 'context\config' I copyed it in 'scripts\context\perl' now it is found. Is this normal?

I have found TWO different files 'texmf.cnf'. One in 'tex\texmf\web2c' the other in 'tex\texmf-local\web2c'. Meight this be an Problem? Which of them is the right one? I have NOT found any file 'pdftex.cfg'. Ist this normal? In 'texmf.cnf' are some pathes written with '/' and '\' mixed. Should this be korrekted.

[NTG-context] Problems with Standalone distribution
Hallo! Some months ago I have downloaded 'mswincontext.zip'. There were a lot of Problems and I tried to solve them. I could finally compile some files. But then I get new problems and so I decided to start over and ask the list for help. First Problem (may be the mother of all the others): The Batch-Files 'cdemo.bat' and 'cscite.bat' are using for example %~s1 for the first placeholder on the commandline. My Windowssystem (ME) doesn't understand this. Are there other Batch-Files that work on older commandoprozessors to download? A second question: There exists an directory 'usr\local\context\tex\texmf\texmf' which contains fontinformation to one single fontfamily 'cb'. Is this ok: 'texmf' under 'texmf'? And why ist this there? Wolfgang ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

My Windowssystem (ME) doesn't understand this.

As I said, I can change these two batch-files. But I am not shure if my problems derive from this. (i dunno if there's a way to test if we run me) A second question: There exists an directory 'usr\local\context\tex\texmf\texmf' which contains fontinformation to one single fontfamily 'cb'. Is this ok: 'texmf' under 'texmf'? And why ist this there? thats a bug (i thought that i had solved it -) Should I move this subtree one level higher or delete it?
