[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] texi2pdf

2014-05-22 Thread hwitloc

I have installed the standalone and it works well on my Xubuntu system.

I tried to run texi2pdf, which not a part of the standalone system, but fails 
due to: ...don't have any working TeX binary installed..   

If the standalone has one I will add its path to my PATH and the texi2pdf 
should work.  
I'm trying to avoid installing a full TeXLive distribution on  this old limited 
memory machine. 

Any advice would help.

[NTG-context] SimpleFonts

2014-05-20 Thread hwitloc


I just installed the standalone context and tried to typeset a document which 
uses simplefonts but the resolver indicates that simplefonts is not found.  
This isn't surprising, but I need to learn how to install simplefonts to use 
with the standalone.

Use adding  --modules all  as an option to  first-setup.sh do this?


Any advice is appreciated.

[NTG-context] Standalone

2014-03-01 Thread hwitloc


On my system I already have Cygwin.  I want to install the standalone Context.

Which involves basically:

   mkdir -o /opt/context
   cd /opt/context
   wget http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/first-setup.sh
   chmod 744 first-setup.sh 
   ./first-setup.sh

   #this works up to this point only partially.

 - /opt/context/tex  is not installed.   This is a bad error.  It causes
  - first-setup.sh to fail.

And what is loaded will cause conflicts with cygwin which already exists, I 
believe.
I can't see why rsync is use to load anothe versio of rsync in a diff location.

   #1. Why does 1st setup duplicate Cygwin dlls?   I've hurd that having 
multiple
cygwin*.dlls can cause problems.   Besideds They already exist and so 
does
luatex.exe for that matter.  'first-setup.sh' should know that it does 
a test
for CYGWIN, but doesn't seem to do anything with it.

   #2. Also redundant and confusing is first-setup.sh forces the fetching of 
rsync by
   an already existing rsync.  Is rsync already exists, why fetch another 
one and
   put it in a different location.


I have texlive for unix on a cygwin platform, on top of an XP system.

I want to make installing the standalone easy for cyginw and linux. 

#
# Firstly, exactly what packages are needed for context?
#  I assume it's one or more of the mtx prefixed programs below.  Please advise.

  - mtx-update.lua

  - mtxrun.exe
  - mtxrun.dll
  - mtxrun.lua  

  - lua52.dll
  - luatex.dll   Is this needed in addition to luatex.exe?
  - luatex.exe   Note: cygwin has  luatex.exe  same functionality?

  - kpathsea620.dll  Note:  TeXLive has kpath related code


I understand that there are not a lot of people experimenting with the latest 
ConTeXt 
and even less for the Cygin platform.  But, I would like to make it easer and 
clearer for Cygwin users who do want to experiement with the latest versions.


I don't know if installing for a native linux version is easier or more 
straightforward or not.

Re: [NTG-context] Problem with Standalone

2014-01-16 Thread hwitloc

Mojca, thank you very much for the detailed and informative information.

Regarding the native for cygwin Context, I am currently using TeXLive for 
Unix-ish Platforms.  So the Context In TeXLive for Unix platforms works or has 
been made to work on Cygwin at some step in the process by someone.  How is the 
TexLive version of ConTeXt prepared?   Using the same technique for the 
standalone to render it runnable on Cygwin like the TexLive version of Context, 
I should think.  What do you think?

 We used to have cygwin-specific binaries, but dropped them after the
 volunteer who built them has lost the interest.
 
 Actually I would surprised if the distribution worked with cygwin
 out-of-the-box now that those binaries have been removed (probably a
 few years ago already) because we never tried to adapt any code, but I
 guess that Akira's native windows binaries should work just as well
 under cygwin's shell, so fixing this should be doable.
 
 There are two steps involved in syncronisation. The script
 first-setup.sh first determines the platform. In the good old days we
 used:
 
 # cygwin
 CYGWIN*)
 case $cpu in
 i*86) platform=cygwin ;;
 x86_64|ia64) platform=cygwin-64 ;;
 *) platform=unknown ;;
 esac ;;
 
 and recently switched to:
 
 CYGWIN*)
 case $cpu in
 i*86) platform=mswin ;; # cygwin, if we ever get native
 cygwin binaries
 x86_64|ia64) platform=mswin ;; # cygwin-64, likewise
 *) platform=unknown ;;
 esac ;;
 
 The script then fetches files from
 rsync -rlptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/$platform/bin .
 which apparently succeeds, but then the following step fails:
 
 mtxrun --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --force --update
 --context=beta --platform=$platform --texroot=$CONTEXTROOT $@
 
 If this step actually ever worked, it might be that Hans' recent fixes
 to determine whether Windows is 64-bit or not, might have broken the
 functionality.
 
 In any case I'm almost sure that mtxrun fails to deliver proper
 binaries. Is there really no other output to be seen?

Yes I am trying to find out.  That's why I sent the message in the first place.

Is there a way to download a three without using rsync?  Perhaps a tarball or

Re: [NTG-context] Standalone Installation Question

2013-10-20 Thread hwitloc
Yes I saw the Windows version of Context mentioned and read it, but the 
documentation is,
in this case, wrong or not fully correct.  This is because I am now using 
Context which comes is included in the TexLive distribution, selected with Unix 
like operating systems.  No bat files or other ancillary code or invokations 
are necessary. 

 Texlive's Context program would probably not run directly on Microsoft Windows 
O.S.
I believe that the documentation can be expanded to cover using a Context on 
Cygwin directly and not the Microsoft port which requires the usage of strange 
Microsoft pathnames, with C:\ and \ seperators.

Using context on cygwin for cygwin may only have been done in TexLive for Unix 
like systems, but I'd like to use and test on the bleeding edge MKIV.  But, 
that proves that it can be done.  I just don't know what was done.

So, perhaps I should ask if anyone knows how TexLive packages Context so that 
it runs directly with the cygwin environment.  It might be terribly difficult 
in which case I will not do it for lack of knowledge and time.  

In what form is Context supplied to TexLive?Maybe I'd have to build Context 
on this cygwin platform to use it.That is what I am looking into.  

Any ideas or information?

Re: [NTG-context] Standalone Installation Question

2013-10-20 Thread hwitloc


To: ConTeXt package maintainer for TeXlive distribution:

TeXlive as of 2011 or so is compatible under unix type with cygwin.

I do not want to use the Microsoft version.  There is no reason from me to 
change
code and scripts to work with Microsoft's methods.  Also I will not give up the 
unix developement environment that cygwin delivers to work with ConteXt.

I'd like to know the the Context package that was submitted to TeXlive.
I presume this was in soure format. How can I get that for the beta/current MKIV
and build it myself?  

Thanks

 Texlive's Context program would probably not run directly on
 Microsoft Windows O.S.
 hm, my experience is the opposite: texlive context runs on Windows,
 but I don't use it because the standalone also works under Windows.
 (I use the texlive for all the rest, btw).
 
 I believe that the documentation can be expanded to cover using a
 Context on Cygwin directly and not the Microsoft port which
 requires the usage of strange Microsoft pathnames, with C:\ and \
 seperators.
 
 Using context on cygwin for cygwin may only have been done in
 TexLive for Unix like systems, but I'd like to use and test on the
 bleeding edge MKIV. But, that proves that it can be done. I just
 don't know what was done.
 
 In this case I think it's better to use the standalone directly on
 Windows.

[NTG-context] context mkiv output options

2013-10-12 Thread hwitloc


Can  MKIV ConTeXt output image files.  I need to create an image file from a 
document and would prefer use Context to output it directly if possible and not 
have to convert a pdf file to an image file such as png or tiff. 

Is there a command line option for this.  I looked at the outpuf from   $ 
context --help   , but cold find no answer there.  It did not even mention the  
--pdf option, which does exist.

Thanks

[NTG-context] \DL misfunctioning

Table #1 In the first case  \DL[1] does not work and no line is displayed, but 
the columns line

Table #2 In this table I accidentally got \DL[1] to work by added a \NC to th

How could I get Example #2 below to align properly and why is \DL not working

[NTG-context] Anomaly in stretch framed text to width

I also appreciate the example provided by Wolfgang.  I have found an anomaly 
which produces incorrect results on my system.

Versin:  mtx-context | current version: 2013.09.03 16:23


Not so minimal, minimal example.  I did a range of values for comparison.
Problem is:
   1. I expect a one character word to be centered.  Not necessary but I 
expected this, because all words 1 character do center alignment.

   2. The letter 'w' for some reason binds to the next character and produces 
an incorrect result.

   3. In the last table the letters 'db' seem to be stuck together when the 
word is seven characters or more.  This anomalous unsymmetric binding also 
occurs in the 2nd and 3rd tables, as well.

Yes, I was need to set the height and width of cells as well as turn on and off 
top/bottom, left/right cell frames.  Is this functionality covered in extreme 
tables?

When you write certain rows and colums do you mean certain settings for rows 
and columns?

If some functions are missing, I assume that they will be added in the future.  
Is this assumption correct?

  - xtreme tables are faster but for normal use both suit
 
 Do you plan to add something equivalent to 
 \setupTABLE[row][column][settings]
 because xtables lack the function to set values for certain rows/columns.

I found the file, tabl-tbl.mkiv, here:

I insert the line you said that was missing at line #721.

But, it did not change anything.  Does this file need to be compiled or 
anything?
I am not familiar with the deeper workings of ConTeXt code yet.

The below is show for context

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] simple business card

2013-08-04 Thread hwitloc


I used the \startfiguretext macro to place a logo in the top left and company 
name to the right of it.  This works well.  The only problem is a Figure 1 
and non show up on the result.  The none was from the example in the book.

But, space is at a premium on a small card and I don't want any taken up by 
blank lines where an annotation might be like none.

How can I keep the below the image text and their text space from being used?

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] How to reduce vertical spacing after this table

2013-07-06 Thread hwitloc

I'Ve been trying dozens of combinations to try to reduce the vertical space 
between the a table and the local footer to some items in the table, but have 
just been running into a wall.

Here is a minimal example.   For my application there is just too much space 
between the bottom of the table and the footnote.   That is the problem.  Also 
is there a more elegant way to get the footnote aligned under the table to the 
left side.  I am using narrower to force it to postion.  This doesn't show up 
right in the minimal, but it works.

Help in solving this would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [NTG-context] Overriding pdfview

2013-06-26 Thread hwitloc

I likewise find the Sumatr pdf viewer better.  Besides the benefits already 
mentioned, it also has the proper quality of being non-intrusive.  Adobe 
readers are quite happy to bloat your memory and take control or otherwise 
intrude on your system's normal operations.

I don't use Adobe's reader at all.

  I don't have sumatra and do not wish to install it just to
  satisfy this one application. WTH is it anyway? (I know what
  it is, it's a rhetorical question). Making some obscure pdf
  viewer the default with no clear way to change it is not a
  good idea. For Windows, the vast majority of people have
  Acrobat Reader which is very often preinstalled. For Linux,
  it's less clear what the default should be but {xpdf
  |evince|acroread} are quite common. Can't speak to OSX as I've
  never used it but I'd bet a coffee Acrobat Reader is (or can
  be) there, too.
 
 - on none of my window boxes acrobat was preinstalled
 - there is no robust way to start acrobat
 - pdfopen has to be adapted to major updates of acrobat
 - there is (at least on my machine) a potential clash between reader
 and professional
 - acrobat occasionally tends to block
 - the latest version of acrobat has funny popups when opening docs
 
 while sumatrapdf
 
 - is pretty fast
 - has matured quite well
 - remembers the current page
 - renders quite ok
 - even supports some basic interactivity
 - (has an ugly yellow pop up windows but those can nowadays be recolored)
 - can be installed as portable application
 - works ok wine/linux (in fact has my preference now when on linux)
 
 so, enough reasons for me to have changed the defaults (esp because
 one can always set different defaults)
 
  Although I first discovered this when trying to use SciTE, it does
  the same thing if invoked from the command line. The pdf viewer does
  not appear in any of the SciTE *.properties files.
 
 
  maybe
  context --autopdf=acrobat yourfile.tex
  context --autopdf=fullacrobat yourfile.tex
 
 or in a scite user properties file:
 
 if PLAT_WIN
 name.flag.pdfopen=--autopdf=acrobat

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Can't find recommended tool

2013-06-22 Thread hwitloc


I am trying to install a font so that Context cn use it.  I am  using the 
simplefont module and have a ttf that I'd like to use.

There is a lot of conflicting information out about to do this and som is 
outdated.   As for ContTeX I did find a nice article, but it says to use the 
program texfont, which ships with ConTex, but I do not have any such file.

texfont --ve=sil --co=gentium --makepath --install


I am using the TexLive version.   Is there any simple method to get this font 
so that it can be used by ConTex MKIV ?

I take this to mean it can't change to Context's /setup/bin

The ... setup/cygwin directories are in my local build directory is in

Is this because the cygwin build is out-of-date or not supported anymore?

I explicity set the permissions to allow me execute access, but script fails 
toward the end.
But, it looks lke the sh script itself is chaning the perameters.  Or else my 
setup is intentionally tricking me.

 It can change to http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/cygwin (or
 rather: it's rsync equivalent).
 
 Someone started providing the binaries, but later gave up.
 
 However, recent posts seem to suggest that normal windows binaries
 should work as well.
 
  The ... setup/cygwin directories are in my local build directory is in   
  /usr/local/context
  and not located off of root /
 
  Is this because the cygwin build is out-of-date or not supported anymore?
 
 It's kind of not-supported because nobody was willing to inspect how
 to build the binaries, but a few days ago I got reports that it should
 work.
 
 Can you please try to fetch first-setup.sh once more and try again?

Re: [NTG-context] item bullet processing / font problem

2013-06-18 Thread hwitloc

The result of adding:
 \definetypeface[test][rm][serif][latin-modern][default]
 \definetypeface[test][mm][math] [latin-modern][default]
 
 \setupbodyfont[test]

Make no difference whatsoever.

Sorry, but I can't typeset math unless various parameters have
been set. This is normally done by loading special math fonts
into the math family slots. Your font set is lacking at least
the parameter mentioned earlier.

! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set.

system   tex  error on line 20 in file bullet-problem.tex: Math 
error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set ...



As pointed out an arument is not being passed through to a lower level and 
apparently in this case the argument is probably NULL or not valid.

However adding:  \setmathfont[modern]   did allow normal default symbols 
working.

Only problem now is a halting compile with error messages and inability to use 
$/diamond$ (and other symbols) as bullet shapes/characters.

Good question.  How should I go about finding the answer to this?

Updated all TeXLive 2011 a week ago.

mkiv says: contextunable to define latinmodernmath-regular.otf as

And as you say

The item text is getting properly placed and there is actually no problem 
there. The parsing is getting out of step, probably because of a missing 
parameter.

I don't know if this is relevant but the below produces a null output.  

$ mtxrun --locate lmmath-regular.otf

Is there a way to ascertain version information about simplefonts if there are 
different ones floating around?

Getting to your main question:
How can I find out if simplefonts, the one here on this machine, defines a lm 
math font in the right way?

[NTG-context] item bullet processing / font problem

2013-06-17 Thread hwitloc


Setting the main font to ipaexm for Japanese characters, causes the sample 
document below to fail being typest properly.

The $\diamond$ symbol I specified as an item bullet does not get typeset and 
where is should be is blank.  Though not shown in this example, the default set 
is also affected.  When it should be a circular bullet a largish hypen - is 
displayed.

Also parsing of the document text itself is affected with Context halting in 
the middle of the first item's text.

I think all problems are due to the change in fort.  Is there anyway I can 
specify a backup font or a fort to use for only the symbols, which I believe is 
in a math font?

Any assistance it getting this working will be much appreciated.

Thank you.

I think this is a unicode math font.   Can I fix this by downloading the proper 
font?  If so please tell me where I can find it.

\setmainfont[ipaexm]%changing this to mincho didn't change still 
used ipaexm


I read somewhere that latinmodernmath-regular.otf was deleted from the system 
from TeXLive for some reason.  Is loading a unicode font gonig to solve this?

Re: [NTG-context] distinguish different characters from different languages

2013-06-09 Thread hwitloc

This seems to be about inter-word spacing, rather than character sets.

For the phrase:  据我所知,中国人将typography写作排版

The intuitive operation for ConTeXt should be to preserve the explict space 
after the comma, but the word typography is not seperated from the rest of 
the text with spaces.

If you input the text as   据我所知,中国人将 typography 写作排版
Then the spaces should be preserved as in English or other languages.
This was not the case once for Japanese, but a (temporary?) fix was put into 
the ongoing development version, I believe.  The space removal was due to the 
fact that Chinese and Japanese do not use space between words in normal text.

For now can you use the ~ or some like escape sequence to force a space where 
you want it?



Tim Li timli2...@outlook.com wrote:

 Hi,
 
 Is there a way in ConTeXt to distinguish (or recognise) different
 characters from different languages, especially distinguishing those
 used in China, Japan and Korea (CJK) from English.
 
 For example, sentence(1) and its translation (sentence (2)) below are
 mixed English with Chinese characters,
 
 as far as I know, Chinese write 排版 as typography. (1)
 translation: 据我所知,中国人将typography写作排版。(2)
 
 If I input this sentence in the ConTeXt source file, how can I
 recognise English characters and Chinese characters respectively so
 that I can insert space (say, 1/4 space) when nesting English words
 into Chinese (the result of sentence (2) in PDF file will look like
 this: 据我所知,中国人将 typography 写作排版。)
 
 Are there some materials or topics about this?

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] \setscript blocking \hskip functionality

2013-04-12 Thread hwitloc

I found that using \setscript{nihongo} breaks the functioning of \hskip.
Here is a minimal example.  MKIV required.  Text source is UTF-8 encoded text.

In the first case without \setscript the Japanese \hskip properly functions, 
but just after the \setscript macro it fails (without err or mention).  
However, it is interesting to note that \hfill does work in both cases with 
standard alphabet text.

  You already have MKIV (probably)
  As already mentioned, just type   context instead of texexec as the 
command.
 
  $  context   name-of-your-tex-file.tex

  I to had to learn that texexec is the script invoking MKII and that 
context is
  the script that invokes MKIV.  But both are usually included in a 
distribution I believe.

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Location of reference

2013-03-29 Thread hwitloc

I've looked through about five context documents and the wiki, but can't find 
any good usage documentation for the \setupnotation macro.  I've found specific 
examples of use, but not a complete usage description such as below which 
explains what options are available.

\setupnotation[...][...=...]  

I'd like read what parameters it covers.

How can this be accomlished.  I want to use just \dagger for the symbol, but

Also I could find no explanations for what a set is, as in  conversion=set 1 or

Re: [NTG-context] etexshow and generation of cont-en.xlm (cont-XX.xml)?

2013-03-18 Thread hwitloc

That is a wonderful idea and one that would be very, very helpful, and much 
appreciated.

Jonathan Barchi barc...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi all,
 
 I'm using the emacs package etexshow to provide a quick ConTeXt
 command reference in EMACS. This utility parses the interface file
 cont-en.xml (for english, in my case) and uses the contents to provide
 a basic dictionary of available commands.
 
 In the documentation for etexshow, there is a reference to being able
 to generate a complete interface description (the aforementioned xml
 file) like so:
 
 ;; There is still an xml-file shipped with this code. Usually you would
 ;; generate the xml-file with 'texexec'ing the file setupe.tex. Then you
 ;; will get the cont-en.xml file that can (could) be used as an input for
 ;; this etexshow. But for now, this won't work. It will work rsn.
 
 It is not clear whether that file (setupe.tex or setup.tex) is/was
 supposed to be shipped with etexshow or was supposed to be a part of
 context. I've searched and found a few references to this problem, but
 never a definitive answer, so if anyone knows the answer to these
 questions I would love to know!!
 
 1. Is the referenced setup(e).tex a file that was previously shipped
 with ConTeXt - presumably mkii since the author refers to texexec - or
 would this be something the author would have included with etexshow
 itself?
 
 2. Is the interface file, e.g. cont-en.xml, auto-generated from all of
 the defined macros in ConTeXt, or is that file hand-written as
 metadata to accompany the source-code definitions?
 
 3. Since self-documentation is a goal of the project, is it possible
 to generate something akin to the interface file that presents a
 snapshot of all commands known to context at a given time, for use in
 things like etexshow or other tools? If so, is it possible to do this
 with modules loaded to see what they additionally define?
 
 Thanks in advance for any help! I'm hoping to use any information I
 get to update etexshow, if possible, and maybe update the ConTeXt
 support in AUCTEX as well. I think it would be really cool if AUCTEX
 could reach out at compile or run time and pull in macro definitions
 from the installed environment, for example.
 
 Best,
 Jon

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Re: How to fix a break

2013-03-17 Thread hwitloc


Hans' advice to me to  run mtxrun fixed my problem and may it will yours as 
well.
Run:
$  mtxrun --generate

I also updated texlive 2012 after that.  with 
$  tlmgr update --all   # this takes a long time

context runs quite independent of the texlive infrastructure; mtxrun
is its own stub for instance and has its own file database; so, if
'context' does not run, it's because either mtxrun (without suffix on
unix) is not updated

if you see kpse being initialized (or any kpse related program being
run) you're in troubleL

This is the text section.

This is the TeXLive distributed version and it worked yesterday.  I'm pretty

Is there a program I can run to go through a texlive installation and rebuild

Re: [NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Some guidance please to get Asian Character

2013-03-14 Thread hwitloc

Wolfgang,
   thanks so much for your resonse.  It's content led to me to a solution, both 
the demonstration code and importantly the note about using MKIV.   Since 
texexec is the only thing mentioned in the ConTEXt the manual, and in other 
places I've read that MKIV is the latest, I wrongly assumed that texexec was 
running MKIV.   When trying to compile the source I keep seeing mkii comments 
in the output and then read up and found out that texexec is for mkii and 
context is for mkiv.  I was also under the impression that texexec was a 
supserset  of context and was a script that ran context, since it mentioned 
two ways to run contxt and that texexec script handled mutliple passes etc..  
  After learning I retried the example code and it now works, which is very 
good.

Thank You.

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] File access for sourc, graphic, and pictures

2013-03-07 Thread hwitloc

I am just learning ConTeXt, so please bare with me.  In all of the 
documentation that I've read so far, it shows the names of imported 
photographs, graphs, blocks, etc as a simple filename without any filename 
extensions or pathnames. 

Having a bunch of photographs anc charts files in the same directory as te tex 
files reallys clutters things up.   I'd like to store photographs, etc., to use 
used in a subdirectory of the project.  Also might be nice to have 
subdirectories for the sourc
e of each part of a book.  

How do experienced people handle organizing files for large-ish scale projects 
such as a book?  It would be educational to learn how this is handled.

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Question about current ConTeXt with XeTeX

2013-02-22 Thread hwitloc

I just read in contextgarden.net the following:
  Note that XeTeX uses mkii and LuaTeX uses mkiv ; in principle mkii is frozen 
so new features and improvements will only happen in mkiv.

  I use the ConTeXt which comes in TEXLIVE 2012, which I assume uses Mark IV.  
Does that mean that I can not use this version of ConTeXt with XeteX which also 
comes packaged in TEXLIVE?

[NTG-context] Insertion of a Document I.D.

I want to generate a document i.d. from the .tex source filename and the 
current date and put it into the footer.

This might be possible already, but I could find it by searching the wiki for
filename and document it, or rather too much since filename is mainly used for 
command line parameters, etc.

I know the \currentdate will give the current system date part that I can use, 
but 
is there any \filename type command for the master filename, so that a document 
i.d. could be generated automatically.

e.g.   \filename\currentdate

\rsection{Work\\Experience} \startitemize[5,packed]

  \stopitemize

The above is fine, except that I want the items to be level with the resume 
section header.  As it is now the items come out below the resume section 
description, like this:

  EDUCATION

   * bozo the clown
   * is here today

  WORK
  EXPERIENCE
   * UCLA BoA
   * LMU BSCS


-
%Whereas I want it to be like this:


  EDUCATION* bozo the clown
   * is here today

  WORK * UCLA BoA
  EXPERIENCE   * LMU BSCS

% above or below
 
  WORK 
  EXPERIENCE   * UCLA BoA
   * LMU BSCS

% 
In other words I want the first item of an itemization to line up with the 
resume section description header's first or last line.   I am thinking it 
might be to set someing in the  before, after, or command or to set maybe 
one to /nop out whatever
 is there currently.  I don't know how to find out what commands these default 
to, if any, but even if I knew at this point, I would still be stuck.   Though 
I'd like to know about that to.

Any advice on this would be appreciated of how to get this desired format would 
be much appreciated.

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Trying to get two styles simultaneiously

2012-04-28 Thread hwitloc


I have been wrestling with this for hours and I'm sure there's a real easy fix. 
 Just that it's eluding me.

How can I use \definedescription to set a combination style?

e.g. 
Below I can get a capitalized description header:

\definedescription[rsection][location=left,width=broad,headstyle=cap]

but, I also want it to be bold.  That is a bold+cap at the same time.

I tried \bf\cap  as a headcommand but it didn't seem to work, as was just 
ignored.
