[NTG-context] cz - cs language abbreviation change
Dear Hans, I have noticed that the abbreviation for Czech language has changed from 'cz' to 'cs'. Perhaps due to ISO 639-2 compliance. May be the norm is a good reason; but this backward incompatible solution makes all Czech document wrong! Silently without any warning or any error message. Moreover, it makes Czech version of the context beginners manual wrong. I strongly ask you to solve this problem, e.g. to create some synonym mechanism, which enable again \mainlanguage[cz] \language[cz to work.

Dear ConTeXters,
for PDF document one can set /PageLayout. It is a mode in which reader

possibility to set 3 more layouts:
/TwoColumnLeft
/TwoPageRight
/TwoPageLeft
I poropose to incorporate next lines of code to sources to enable
setting of these layouts

another option is (less new keywords)
option={doublesided,left,continue} % any order
Much cleverer! But in this case there is a backward incompatibility
{doublesided,continue} = current {doublesided}
{doublesided} = would mean NONcontinuous
Actually whenever I wanted to use facing layout, I wanted NONcontinuous.
So I do not bother with this backward incompatibility. May be somebody
else do?

These names are derrived from curren naming convention (doublesided)
and PDF names. May be we can use more intuitive variants:
option=facingright,
option=facingleft,
option=facingcontinuousright,
option=facingcontinuousleft,

[NTG-context] register: spurious space one more entry level ask
Dear ConTeXters,
there are 3 topics dealing with register (index):
1. [Spurious space] There are entries like
\registerpage{index}{,}{5}{2--1-1-0-1-0-0-0--1}{2}
in a *.tuo file. Since the definition (core-reg.tex)
\def\dosetpageregisterpage#1#2#3#4#5#6%
{\doifreglevelelse[#5]%
{\dodosetpageregisterpage{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}{#5}{#6}}%
{}}
there will be a spurious space between page number like
Entry 23 , 67
instead of
Entry 23, 67
Solution:
\def\dosetpageregisterpage#1#2#3#4#5#6%
{\doifreglevelelse[#5]%
{\dodosetpageregisterpage{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}{#5}{#6}}%
{}\ignorespaces}
Test file:
--
\starttext
Text\index{test}.
\page[yes]
Paragraph\index{test}.
\placeindex
\stoptext
--
2. [feature request] Current register implementation enable upto three
entry level (\index{level 1+level 2+level 3}). My custommer require 4
levels. Please could the entry number be extended?
3. [not important, just for info] Formating of the register entries is
not much user friendly. See \hangindent1em in a following definition:
\def\dosetpageregisterentrya#1#2%
{\flushseenregisterpage
\edef\currententrylevel{1}%
\global\let\c!entryb\relax
\global\let\c!entryc\relax
\gdef\c!entrya

\hangindent1em\noindent\c!entryreference
\dohandlepageregisterentry{#1}{#2}%
\global\firstregisterentryfalse
\global\firstsubentrytrue

So, when one want the change formating he has to redefine this
definition. It is against a ConTeXt spirit.

Both patches (space 4-level entry) work well as I can test them till

The problem is that during reading CSV the reading is interrupted by reading another file like \readfilename -pdfr-ec (c:/TeXLive2005/texmf-context-a/tex/context/base/pdfr-ec.tex ConTeXt macro \input takes care about catcodes but not about \endlinechar so in this situation the file pdfr-ec is read with wrong \endlinechar which causes error. We believe that system solution is the ConTeXt takes care about \endlinechar when automatically starts reading some standard files. Please Hans can you look at it? works ok here; i remember an issue but that was solved already (afaik); tex live 2005 is not that up to date -) I did not test this with such museum-belonging ConTeXt. The problem preserves in the latest public version 2007-04-17. See very left bottom corner attached PDF (mkii). a workaroun din an old version is to load pdfr-ec manually, so that it's read already when the cvs code shows up We internally solve the problem (temporary redefining \input) but I believe that ConTeXt should follow more systemic solution. in scancvs ... beware of redefining such core macros yes, we did not want you solve possible problems of an usage such external (plain TeX designed) macros---only if we believe that the behavior looks like a ConTeXt bug and that can cause problems for other users. in the latest version there are things like \pushcatcodes ... \popcatcodes and catcode tables (a simulation of the native luatex catcode table features); I will look at this. But I have not entered a catcode problem in this case. fyi: in luatex (and therefore context mkiv) doing things with data files will be easier can you test with a recent context? yes, it did not work, see attached files.

I thought that the number of calling \input inside text state is
limited---(only?) one example is a loading encoding definition file.
Why not to incorporate the cleverness of setting a default
\endinputchar to a macro that invokes \input?
\startreadingfile ... \stopreadingfile is an option then
understand as a solution bypassing \input redefinition
it all depends on the usage ...
- most commands use \readfile, or \readjobfile or alike - when loading
yes, in this case \readsysfile inside:
\def\dododoincludepdffontresource#1% encoding
{\bgroup
\edef\currentencoding{#1}%
\doifvaluesomething\pdffontfileresource
{\startreadingfile
\ignorelines % just in case \par is redefined;

\stopreadingfile
\letgvalue\pdffontfileresource\empty}%
\egroup}
modules of system files , we revert to tex catcode regimes etc
user files ... well, here tex (context) does not know what is dealt
with; take xml, in that case we want to stay in xml mode; or verbatim,
which needs to set up verbatim
actually this is all arranged already (and always has been)
catcodes yes, but \endlinechar not:
\def\startreadingfile% beter een every en \setnormalcatcodes
{\doglobal\increment\readingfilelevel
\the\everystartreadingfile
\beginrestorecatcodes
\setcatcodetable\prtcatcodes}
why not introduce something like
\beginrestoreendlinechar
???
Vit
your problem with the pdfr-enc file results from the fact that loading
that file comes at a nasty moment and afaik loading now happens under
the right regime; so, if there's a problem we need to find out what's
the problem with that file, since it's unrelated to \input (loading
that vector is managed so to say)

[NTG-context] ConTeXt on Excursion: translations in the Garden
Hi all, there is a new plant in the Garden: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_on_Excursion%2C_translations It gathers translations of the beginner's manual ConTeXt on Excursion (authors Ton Otten and Hans Hagen). Currently there exist Dutch, English, and Czech versions. Czech version is a team work of translators (Ján Buša, Jiří Hrbek, Martina Plachá, Petr Tesařík, and Vít Zýka) supported by Czechoslovac TUG (CSTUG). We use as a model the English version (although the original is the Dutch one). A reader can find several additional sections dealing with localization and information sources. Non Czech readers have also some benefic as a side effect of this project. The English version was slightly actualized and fixed some bugs. All versions are acompanied by actual macro syntax and listed in the command index. Sources of all three versions are stored on the public SVN repository as a part of the ConTeXt manual project (https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextman/), administrated by Taco. There is a makefile for an easy manual generation. It is ready for adding new stuff/actualizing/fixing bugs and even for new language translation. On the Garden page we can find breaf instructions for that. If you have any question, please do not hesitate to ask me.

\startcolumns

\stopcolumns
\stoptext

If we comment two last lines everything goes well. Uncommenting them the
biggest frame leaves in the first column and extents the layout. In the
manual it results in some setup syntax is out of the page.
Please, could you help

Guessing: is not the index entry inside the \chapter title which also
goes to content (or another list) that is on a separate page numbering?

Hi Aditya,
I had the same problems in past in solved them by myself. The problems
are dutch commands in the style-files and a typo.
I attached my corrected style-files, because it is faster to replace

The files did not correct the problem with the backgrounds in the

2. Accented characters inside \typebuffer are type set as

This seems to be a bug. In utf-8 encoding, if an accented character is
the first character of a buffer, it gets typed correctly. All other
accented charaters come out as \dochar {225}. \getbuffer works fine.
I forgot to attach the test file. I am attaching it, hoping that the
encoding will come out correctly.
Can TeX choose the input encoding while writing files? If not, there
may be really no robust way to solve this problem.

in core-buf we need to treat the upper half of the vector:

\setcatcodetable\vrbcatcodes

Ohh, I see, thank you Wolfgang. I have overlooked the star. I think

\doglobal\saveXMLdatainelement{stp:\currentSETUPname}{cd:command}{cd:command}%
\expanded{\eachtexcommand[stp:x:\currentSETUPname]{\currentSETUPname}}%
\expanded{\texcommand[stp:y:\currentSETUPname]{\currentSETUPname}}}
Look at the %-signs.
I hope Hans will add something like \setupsetup[generated=yes|no] with
generated=no as default
to be backward compatible.
Until Hans will include such a patched file you can use my attached one with
\usemodule[t-set-11].
For Hans! Shouldn't the start in the definition be a \e!start
I agree.
\defineXMLenvironmentsave [cd:command]

{\doifelseXMLop{type}{environment}
{\edef\currentSETUPname{start\getinterfacecomponent{string}{\XMLop{name

\e!start
With current code the command name is typeset by uppercase, like
\startFRAMEDTEXT
Is this intended? In my opinion it confuses the user. I would redefine
\defineXMLenvironmentsave [cd:variable] [value=]
{{\expanded{\setupintfont{%
\getinterfacecomponent{variable}{\XMLop{value}\ignorespaces}
{\ignorespaces}

\defineXMLenvironmentsave [cd:variable] [value=]

[NTG-context] shortsetup and environment (resent from dev-context)
Hi Hans and others,
I have tried to find the solution of the problem described by minimal
example bellow without success.
(Parsing XML database cont-en.xml, every 'cd:command' with
'type=environment' have to be defined with 'start' prefix. As far as I
could check it is done OK. But \start commands are not known for
\shortsetups.)
It is needed for Beginners' manual. Please can you have a look at it?
Thanks

Richard Gabriel wrote:
Hello Hans and others,
I'd have two comments to the texmf/scripts/context/ruby/base/tex.rb
script.
1. I find quite impractical that the formats (cont-en, cont-nl etc.)
are hardcoded in the scripts. When one wants to add a new format, then
he must add it on 4 or 5 places in the script, and do it again and
again everytime when upgrading ConTeXt. :-(
well, we can use:
def validsomething(str,something)
if str then
list = [str].flatten.collect do |s|
something[s] || s # || s added
end .compact.uniq
if list.length0 then
if str.class == String then list.first else list end
else
false
end
else
false
end
end
and then you can say
texexec --all --make --texformats=cont-xx
given that you have cont-xx.tex
2. Maybe this is an OS and TeX distribution specific issue...
I use TeXLive 2005 on Windows XP.
The TeX formats are located in C:\TeXLive\texmf-var\web2c. [the
kpsewhich --show-path=fmt command also shows this path].
When generating a format using texmfstart texexec --make en, the
generated format is placed into C:\TeXLive\texmf-var\web2c\pdfetex.
Then, when trying to use the format, it is not found...
This is done on line 547 of tex.rb:
texformatpath = if getvariable('local') then '.' else
Kpse.formatpath(texengine,true) end
So I've changed it to Kpse.formatpath(texengine,false) and
everything is fine.
But I don't understand why it is set so by default and why it doesn't
work for me.
Does anybody experience the same problem?
we really need the engine path so i wonder why the format
is not found; maybe an error in the cnf file (should recursively
search the web2c path for formats)
I have the same observation. The TeXLive 2005 definition is
TEXFORMATS = .;$TEXMF/web2c/{$engine,}
but it seems to me tex binaries do not set $engine variable. If so, it
can be locally solved (without changing binaries and supposing not using
xetex or another engine) by
TEXFORMATS = .;$TEXMF/web2c//

Hallo!
I am trying to use 'standardmakeup' to produce 'Schmutztitel'-page

'Schmutztitel'.
There is a fourth blank page too.

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.

Vit,
I just tried your solution, but it doesn't work: it adds space to the four
side of table cells. But I want to add space ONLY TO LEFT AND RIGHT, not to
top and bottom, like in the following illustration:
-
|My text|
-
inside the cell
\leftskip1em \rightskip\leftskip
Not to four sides but between columns. Rows distance is not affected.
But you are right it does not increase distance between text and cell
frame. Since natural tables uses \framed construct in each cell and
\framed has no 'before'/'after'/'hoffset'/'leftoffset'/'rightoffset' it
can not be simply set for whole natural table.
Solution?
a) quick:
\bTD \hskip1cm Second movie \hskip2cm\null\eTD
or with macro:
\newdimen\lOffset \lOffset=1cm
\newdimen\rOffset \rOffset=2cm
\def\myNatTabCell#1{\bTD\hskip\lOffset#1\hskip\rOffset\null\eTD}
...
\myNatTabCell{Second movie}
...
b) systematic
create alternative \extframed with 'before', 'after', 'hoffset',
'leftoffset', 'rightoffset', 'voffset', 'topoffset', 'bottomoffset'
and add switches:
\bTABLE[alternative=extframed,leftoffset=1cm,rightoffset=2cm]

Can you make a little example where a split 'page' option is from
use?
When you want the frontmatter starts et right (odd) page and mainmatter
at arbitrary one.
Setting:
\setupsectionblock[frontpart][page=right]
put
\page[right]
at
\startfrontmatter
and also at
\stopfrontmatter
and that is why following mainmatter may skip even page starting at
right one. My solution is above but it is not user friendly.

[NTG-context] feature request: \everytrypass
Dear ConTeXters,
I am counting occurence of some macro in the text. Problem is when this
macro is inside \bTABLE (and may be somewhere else). Due to try passes
the increment is counter is incremented more then once and the result is
multiplied.
It is possible to implement some \everytrypass in which user can (e.g.)
null incrementing? Or there is some another solution?
Thanks
Vit

---
\newcount\C
\def\doIncrement{\global\advance\C by1\relax}

Hans
Peter was asking for something different, I believe.
\clip do the thing well but you have to measure a bb somewhere, e.g. in
GhostView. Since \externalfigure have to know bb then an option 'clip'
can do that without manual measuring. There might be even en extension:
apart from 'clip' option there could also be 'bb=10 20 100 200' option
for overwritting original boundingbox. Clipping a figures would be a bit
more strightforward.
i dunno what the intended effect is but here's an example
\starttext
\startuseMPgraphic{test}
draw fullcircle scaled 4cm withpen pencircle scaled 1cm ;
setbounds currentpicture to boundingbox fullcircle scaled 4cm ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\ruledhbox{\useMPgraphic{test}}
\vskip3cm
\ruledhbox{\clip{\useMPgraphic{test}}}
\stoptext
I see, I did not realize such simple usage of \clip (without options).
That do exactly what was thinking about. One character of typing
difference between:
\clip{\externalfigure{test}}
and
\externalfigure[clip]{test}
is not crutial:) So sorry for noise.
But as far as I know, \clip works only with left|top,width|height
params. Could right|bottom be added (assuming at least one from
left-width-right and top-height-bottom is missing - if not width|height
is ignored)? Or there is again some secret that I missed?

The mentioned regimes are all present on http://pub.mojca.org/tex/enco/contextbase/, so it's up to you wheter you add any of the other regimes to the distribution or perhaps better wait till someone requests them. (There are so many files that taking them all would almost require a separate folder.) I'm happy now that cp1250 is in and I'm not using any other regime, so it's really not my decision. As far as I remember there were also some inconsistencies in the present greek and cyrillic regime. http://pub.mojca.org/tex/enco/contextbase/regi-vis.tex is slightly different than the file in the distro (uses named glyphs), but conceptually the same.

Now I have solved it using not-stable solution -- I am using triple sequence
of \expandafter to expand \XMLflush after \chapter instead \expanded. The
solution is not stable as it is ConTeXt implementation dependent.
On the other side, now I do not know, how to partially expand code
\chaper{\XMLflush{XMLTag}} to obtain sequence of simple unexpanded chars.
Simple \expandafter is not sufficient, more \expandafters is dirty trick and
full expansion (\expanded) leads to TOC entry problem. In TeX source this
cannot occur (or can occur in strange situations :-), in XML source this is
almost rule.
Maybe it would be useful to have in XML engine macro, which expands XMLdata
exactly to get read (original) content (like mine triple \expandafter). Maybe
such macro already exists and I am a real fool :-)
Thank you for help, have a nice day,

raw characters are not active and they are therefore equivalent to \char
it's enough then to put
\def\numcharacter#1{\rawcharacter{#1}}%
\let\dochar\numcharacter
into cont-new.tex
(i will discuss this in more detail with taco later)

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts problems
Michal Kvasnička wrote:
Good afternoon.
I apologize that I bother you once more, but I'm getting desperate. :-(
I have still problem with fonts in ConTeXt---perhaps I'm not able to
install it well. I use ConTeXt ver: 2006.02.03 21:00, pdfeTeX, Version
3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4), tetex-3.0-13 under SuSE Linux 9.2 (the
tetex is grabbed from Suse 9.3). I tried to copy all files where I
thought they should have been, texhashed, and build formats. Now, some
things work, but not all of them, and not in an expected way.
Problem 1: I expect that a following file should typeset tufte in
Latin Modern font.
\setupoutput[pdf]
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext
ConTeXt loads some map files (/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map
/dvips/context/original-empty.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/context/ori
ginal-base.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/context/ec-public-lm.map}{/usr

mf/fonts/map/dvips/context/original-ams-euler.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/d
vips/context/original-public-lm.map}), but it clearly isn't able to find
the right one, since it writes this error message:
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 72 --mag 1+0/72 --dpi 72
ec-lmr12
mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for ec-lmr12.
Hello,
it seems like old lm package (wrong map files). Try to update from

Vit Zyka
kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.
)
Warning: pdfetex (file ec-lmr12): Font ec-lmr12 at 72 not found
I can correct it when I add one more file:
\loadmapfile[psclean.map]
But I was told that I should omit this line. What's the problem? How can
I correct it?
Problem 2: Let's suppose I add into the previous file this
B\oh-Bawerk
then the letter \o is missing (a white space is on its place). Isn't
there a bug in the Latin modern fonts/virtual fonts/metrics, or
whatever? Moreover, gv views the hyphen over the h and B letters.
(Acrobat Reader 7 view it all right.) How is that possible.
Problem 3: Some fonts are not used properly. The following file
\setupoutput[pdf]
\loadmapfile[psclean.map]
\usetypescript[ppl] % working pos
\switchtobodyfont[ppl,10pt]
\starttext
\input tufte\par
\stoptext
works well. It works even if I change pos to ppl, ptm, phv, or
tim. It works even when changed to pcr, but the text is ragged. When
changed to con, bookman, or iwona, it does nothing---the text is
typeset in Latin Modern. When changed to ant, I get this error message:
kpathsea: Running mktextfm sy-anttrz
/usr/share/texmf/web2c/mktexnam: Could not map typeface abbreviation
y- for sy-anttrz.

This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.4)
kpathsea: Running mktexmf sy-anttrz
! I can't find file `sy-anttrz'.
I think I have installed all these fonts (instead of Adobe fonts I have
URW ones). What's wrong.
Problem 4: From what afm files were the tfm metrics for Times,
Helvetica, and Palatino generated? Accents are positioned in a strange
way and after a tquoteright is a strange hole (bad kerning). A long
time ago I've generated myself tfm metrics from afm files of URW fonts,
and they look much better. Were these afm files used, or were used some
afm metrics of fonts that do not include accented letter, i.e. are those
letters just TeX-based composites?
Problem 5: How can I switch back to CS fonts? (Well, I know I bother you
all, but I still do not like Latin Modern fonts.) :-( I thought that
something like this could work, but it doesn't:
\setupoutput[pdf]
\loadmapfile[psclean.map]
\loadmapfile[/usr/share/texmf/dvips/context/original-public-csr.map]
\starttypescript [serif] [computer-modern] [il2]
\definefontsynonym [cmb10][csb10][encoding=il2]
\definefontsynonym [cmbsy10] [csbsy10] [encoding=il2]
...
\stoptypescript
\usetypescript[computer-modern][il2]
\switchtobodyfont[computer-modern,10pt]
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext
How can I do it?
I apologize for so many questions. Many thanks for your help.
Your thankful

The similar behaviour is observed when a float has one column width and

Is there some solution or another way how to do that and preserve the text?
you were the guy running an ancient context, wasn;t it?
Yes on my machine, not so ancient on an notebook; but your context is
old too since you sent me off-list the same wrong result ;-)
Please, closely look on the paragraph numbering. In the second paragraph
sequence the number 2, 3, and 4 are missing, number 1 and 5 are partialy
missing - total one page is lost.
works ok here (although i admit that this mechanism is a bit tricky;
i believe; it is one context's advantage over plain or latex, so it can
be a new challenge to decrease the number of bugs...
a solution is to make the graphic .99 textheight
even .98 not ;-) No, it does not solve. Text stops to disappear when
there is enough space for at least one line. But I would like only
figure on the page. Not with one or more line text. Yes one can add some
imaginary empty line, but it is agly (and difficult if some \vadjust

The similar behaviour is observed when a float has one column width and
fit the whole column height.
Is there some solution or another way how to do that and preserve the text?
Thanks

Proper sorting needs several (3 or 4, perhaps some languages more?) passes: 1. pass: division - define which letters comes to the same group (it can be also group of letters) - defined for newtexutil.rb 2. pass: sorting with the simplified rules e.g. ü=ue=Ü=Ue=UE 3. pass: if all letter are the same according the 2. pass, then apply e.g. üueÜUeUE 4. ???

Re: [NTG-context] last natural table column longer

Hi Vit,
Vit Zyka wrote:
Hello Wizards,
my multi page (and multicolumn) table exceeds the last page by 2 rows.
Is there a way to make last column a bit longer? Here is a minimal
example:
The underlying problem is that you have to enlarge the height of
page 2. I don't know how that is 'normally' done, but perhaps it
gives someone else a hint ?
Answer to my own question:
Question:
Imagine a table (\bTABLE) spanning several pages. Moreover the table
is inside multicolumn (\startcolumn). How to make some column longer
(having more rows in some column)? (Column height is given by page height.)
Solution:
1. Make page heigher (as high as the highest column) on every page where
the table is:
\setuplayout[lines=..]
2. Insert blank rows to appropriate table places to fill the columns:
\dorecurse{..}{\bTR\bTD\strut\eTD\eTR}
Remarks:
1. \adaptlayout{page}{height=+...} has limited capability of making page
heigher (not overcomes footer) so \setuplayout is more flexible.
2. Forsing column break by
\bTR[after=\column]\bTD...\eTD\eTR
works but add some spurious space on the top of next column. I was
not able to remove it even experimenting with my own
\installcolumnbreakhandler {MUL} {forse} {...}
and using
\bTR[after={\columnbreak[forse]}]\bTD...\eTD\eTR
Spurious space demonstration:
--
\startbuffer[table]
\bTABLE[split=yes]
\dorecurse{20}{\bTR\bTD cell #1\eTD\eTR}
\bTR[after={\columnbreak[yes]}]\bTD between \eTD\eTR

I seee, OK thanks, it works. And I have to admit Taco was right with
actual page height influences column splitting. I was wrong with my

1) \adaptlayout[page][height=+3cm]
increases the height only by: min(3cm,footer-height)
(means UPTO footer-height)
2) there is some rounding error if setting height=(fit|middle), see

Please help. you can take a look at type-old.tex, and copy the relevant mapping (il2)to a local typeface file and load that one (as long as you make sure that the definitions are seen last) another option is to use a private map file (or a file with \pdfmaplines) that map the latin modern fonts to csr fonts (maybe a better options; the metrics that tex uses are the same anyway) anyhow, a few remarks: - at the last bachotek there was a talk about czech type design and one of the remarks was that fo rmany fonts this whole accent business was more a matter of taste than of quality (i will not quote the speaker on czech typesetting tradition here-) Probably Karel Horak. There was done big improvements since this time (spring 2005). So I have to support Hans's opinion. There was a HUGE discussion on the Czech TeX list before and during Boguslaw's lecture in Brno (nov 2005). The result was: - LM is suitable for Czech typesetting despite of some minor compromises followed from multinational typesetting. - Boguslaw admited some minor bugs in LM and promised to fix them. He also carried out many notes and proof sheets. - LM is much more consistent over the whole CM family. - CS Type1 has many bugs in accents (nearly in any non csr10 font). Vit - if one goes open type (some day soon for tex) one has to live with some general design (consistent positioning among a large range) - computer modern was never designed with all those accented characters in mind, and it will probably never look real great (plr, csr, vnr all look kin dof bad unless printed on high resolutions) - as far as i've heard, there will be some compromis cooked up for cs in the next release of lm, and afaik after that the majority of cstug will adopt the font, so in the end - csr is a rather limited font since it only implements a small subset of il2 (same for pl0 which also implements a subset; such subsets are a nightmare for tex developers and stand in the way for future tex's, this is why the lm project was started ... we need to survive) - just curious: do you always use cm fonts? there are other fonts with math nowadays Hans ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] extra nattab split in columns
Hi,
there occurs extra page break when natural tables is in the columns:
\showframe
\starttext
\startcolumns
Text.
\bTABLE[split=yes]
\dorecurse{100}{\bTR\bTD line\eTD\eTR}
\eTABLE
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
I do not know why there is extra \page
\bgroup\page\egroup
inside of \splittblboxa (core-ntb). Box breaking should be implicit here
(we are not inside a float here since \splittblbox forks this), should not?
Commenting mentioned line(s) solves this special problem.
Not understanding all background I do not know if it causes some
unwanted side-effect.

Hi Peter,
And here are my problems:
1.) I get bold sc font, but the normal \sc is now the normal font.
\sc and \bf are defined at the same level in ConTeXt, so they (normally)
exclude each other. My guess is that it is very unlikely that this will
be fixed, but I assume it would be possible to do something using the
\variants mechanism (note: I am not sure and would not know how)
thi sis an option indeed;
This is implemented at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Pseudo_Small_Caps
(links to files on typokvitek.com has to be retyped, sorry)
Vit
the other method is just to define an
additional typeface
\definetypeface[mainface].
\definetypeface[smallface].
\definetypeface[osface].
andthen do things like \smallface\bf
typeface switching is rather efficient

---
\definemarking[M]
\startsetups S
default=(\getmarking[M])~
first=(\getmarking[M][first])~
last=(\getmarking[M][last])~
previous=(\getmarking[M][previous])~
both=(\getmarking[M][both])~
all=(\getmarking[M][all])~
current=(\getmarking[M][current])
\stopsetups
\setupheadertexts[text]
[\setups{S}][]
[\setups{S}][]
\setuppagenumbering[location=none]
\definecolumnset[C][n=3]
\starttext
\startbuffer
\section{Knuth}
\marking[M]{k1}\marking[M]{k2}
\input knuth
\section{Zapf}
\marking[M]{z}
\input zapf
\stopbuffer
\startcolumnset[C]
\dorecurse{10}{\getbuffer}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
---
(Focus on page 1 and 4)
Is there any idea how to fix this?

I check it on a real doc. And if no mark sign is in the last col, then marks from previous col(s) is taken. It would be a great news if you succeed to fix it. I cross my fingers.

So some patches/file exchanges are feasible? actually, the patch i sent you off-list is not that dangerous because (1) it is written on top of the untouched low level mark handler (2) it leaves the normal marks untouched not at all: \getmarking[A][all] does not swallow [A] so it will end up in the distribution if you find no flaws as usual the problem is in documenting it (i.e. when adding new things for you others may complain that the manual is way behind -) What does it mean \global\mofcolumns\plusone inside of setups in your test example? Is it really needed? I put the info to tex-show (getmarking). I reminds me there are many items missing in the tex-show, the list is on the wiky - columnsets are among them. vit ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

it should at least i remember writing some code -)
Here is an old example:
\defineregister[Name][Names]
\setupregister[Name][pagestyle=\it]
\setupregister[Name][bf][pagestyle=\bf]
\starttext
Names:
\Name[bf::]{Hans}
\Name{Taco}
\startregister[Name][bf::]{Patrick}
\page[yes]
\Name{Hans}
\stopregister[Name][bf::]{Patrick}
\page[yes]
\Name{Patrick}
\placeregister[Name]
\stoptext
--
Regrettably, I have now no time to install and check the new version of
newtexexec.rb, so perhaps it is already done. Please, for quick check
focus on 'Patrick' entry, it should have 1--2, 3 page numbers.
Or more complex example:
\defineregister[Name][Names]
\setupregister[Name]
\setupregister[Name][bf][pagestyle=\bf]
\starttext
Names:
\Name{Patrick}
\Name[bf::]{Hans}
\Name{Taco}
\startregister[Name][bf::]{Patrick}
\page[yes]
\Name{Patrick}
\page[yes]
\Name{Hans}
\stopregister[Name][bf::]{Patrick}
\placeregister[Name]
\stoptext
--
Possible variants:
1) Patrick 1, 2, {\bf 1--3}
2) Patrick {\bf 1--3}, 1, 2
3) Patrick 1--2, {\bf 1--3}
4) Patrick {\bf 1--3}, 1--2
in case of variants 1 v. 2 and 3 v. 4 I am not sure how the categories
'empty_string' and bf are sorted. But it does not matter since user
can set any category name.
variants 3, 4 should be set if some register option (coupling?) is set on

Re: [NTG-context] Bug / feature request tracking
Thomas A. Schmitz wrote:
Taco,
great to have your bug collector, and let's hope it'll be a bug
squasher before long...
I had submitted a couple of bugs and feature requests for the index
command that don't seem to be resolved and which didn't make it to your
list. I'd say they are fairly critical because they will really mess up
index generation:
1. index ranges inserted via \startregister[index] will gobble all
other entries for the term;
2. \seeindex gives an error and will foul up the .tui file when
processed with newtexexec;
3. again with newtexexec: capital letters at the beginning of terms are
disregarded for the index, thus Taco will be sorted under a.
Yes, I agree.
4. and a feature request: it would be good to have some formatting
options like LaTeX makeidx offers: \index{keyword|textit} will produce
a page-number in italics in the register. That would be immensely
useful to produce a structured index.
This is already present in the ConTeXt even in more general way then in
the LaTeX is. More info in the manual.

All best

Hi all,
Some of you may be aware of the fact that there is a bug /
feature request tracker for ConTeXt. The URL is:
http://context.literatesolutions.com/collector
I have to do a call-to-arms for the people that have made
feature requests and / or found bugs in the past few months,
especially if the extension /solution has not been included
in the latest distribution (2005.10.27).
Will you all please have a look at the current list, and see
if I have added your item(s) already?
I have a rather large archive of context-related email (because
I let it slip for a while), and I fear that may have missed
some extant bugs. This is quite important, because if it is not
in the list, it is much less likely to get fixed.
Greetings,
Taco
