[NTG-context] Apology

2012-05-29 Thread yuji sakai
Good day!

I would like to apologize for whatever trouble my earlier post caused the
message archive system. Rest assured that no ill intention was behind that.

Honestly, I haven't been posting anything for quite a while now, and I have
already forgotten how to... At least in a proper way. I was caught up in
the middle of something earlier as I was trying to look for a solution to
my problem when I posted my query. It was only after Mojca called my
attention just now that I noticed that I have not deleted the rest of the
unrelated posts in the bulletin that I used to reach the mailing list. Only
now did I realize what a mess that has caused.

I am still learning the ropes in using ConTeXt MKIV. But instead of asking
questions about the things that I needed done, I have done my best to
search for the answers myself. Only when I feel (at the time) that my
search has been futile do I come to this mailing list for help... And that
is as a last resort. To Aditya, thank you very much for your very prompt
reply. I already knew the unicode for the recipe sign prior to posting my
inquiry, and was hoping there would be another way to do it. At the time of
posting, I was having problems typesetting unicode characters in MKIV but
soon figured that out by the time I received Aditya's response. But
nonetheless, I am grateful for Aditya's help.

Cheating, I believe, has a connotation of one bypassing the norms to gain
undue advantage over others. To that, I refuse to admit that what I did
earlier was cheating. As I have said, I had no intention of disrupting this
message board. It was a careless mistake on my part.

Anyway, thank you all for your help.

Joel

[NTG-context] How to typeset recipe symbol for a doctor's prescription pad

2012-05-28 Thread yuji sakai
Good day!

Been trying to typeset a prescription pad template for a doctor but am
stumped at the recipe symbol. Searched the internet for help but I just
couldn't find it.

Hope someone who has tried using this symbol in MKIV can help me with this
one.

Thanks.

Joel Mendoza

 indeed

 Still, given the large amount of data that gets printed during a
 compilation (it is basically impossible to figure out if something
 goes wrong without carefully looking at the log), I would also support
 the idea to print missing characters by default.

 I'm also contemplating a different idea (after TL): wouldn't it be
 nice if ConTeXt (luatex) would print warnings (missing image, missing
 module, missing character, ...) in colour (if that's supported), to
 make it clearly stand out from the rest?

 clang and CMake use that regularly for example.

This is ok
