It is not as configurable as listings, but has most of the features. In MKII, writing a module for pretty printing files was a pain. Now, with luatex, things are much easier. The new tex and mp pretty printers are written in lua, and are much easier to read (and write). Part of the interface is documented here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Verbatim_text 2. Can someone please tell me if a book is being planned, I'd hate to print out the documentation and then come to realize that, say, two months down the line a book is available. Don't worry.

[NTG-context] Fedora 9 (Linux) Installation
Hi, I can't seem to install ConTeXt manually. I've literally followed this page http://wiki.contextgaraden.net/Linux_User_Installation verbatim and I can't seem to compile even the most basic of documents. I'm running Fedora9 bit, and I do happen to have TeXLive with ConTeXt installed. The thing is I don't want to ruin the current install rather I'd like to have a version of ConTeXt that lives in my ~/. so that I can play about with it, I'm particurarly after the fonts that come with it. I've attached some files with the outputs of running the commands. a. source ~/.context_env $PWD/tex = results in nothing. b. mktexlsr = mktexlsrlog.txt c. texexec --version = texexec-version-log.txt d. texexec --check = check-texexec-log(copy).txt This simply doesn't work on my install it's meant to do what the author of the page said --- This will give you a lot of lines of output including the versions of various scripts, the version of pdftex and the version of ConTeXt. It will also generate a test file and run it through ConTeXt. You should get a pdf file called texexec.pdf with the word Test.. Didn't get anything :(. e. texexec first.tex = texexec-first-log.txt Ok now that's out of the way i've got a few questions regarding ConTeXt itself. 1. Is there an equivalent of the listing package? Take a look at listing-sample.pdf. It's also highly customizable, allowing me to change the colour etc. For instance here is my setup. \lstset{breaklines=true, showlines=true, % showing line numbers numbers=left, % where to show line numbers numberstyle=\scriptsize\sffamily\color{gray}, % numbersep=10pt, % stepnumber=1, % how often to show the line number on the left language=Java, % specifiy the language basicstyle=\scriptsize\ttfamily, % print whole listing small keywordstyle=\bfseries\color{eclipsekeyword}, % underlined bold black keywords identifierstyle=, % nothing happens commentstyle=\color{eclipsecomment}, % white comments, if you use commentstyle=\color{white}, it doesn't display the PRODID for the VCALENDAR stringstyle=\ttfamily, % typewriter type for strings showstringspaces=false, % no special string spaces frame=single, % bottom of listing gets a rule, use frame=single if you want awhole frame around it backgroundcolor=\color{white}, use frame=b for line a the bottom only backgroundcolor=\color{white}, tabsize=4, showspaces=false, showstringspaces=false} \lstset{morecomment=[s][\color{eclipsejavadoc}]{/**}{*/}}%, % morecomment=[s][\color{red}]{/*-}{*/}} And including the source code. \lstinputlisting[ caption={CalendarExtractor.java}, label=lst:CalendarExtractor.java] {source/CalendarExtractor.java} 2. Can someone please tell me if a book is being planned, I'd hate to print out the documentation and then come to realize that, say, two months down the line a book is available. 3. As you probably guessed I'm new to ConTeXt so if somewould could please tell me in what situation you would use each of the following files for, It'll clarify alot of things for. In particular what is the the main CONTEXT distribution. context/current/cont-tmf.zip the main CONTEXT distribution context/current/cont-img.zip a few resources for testing functionality context/current/cont-fnt.zip font metrics of public fonts context/current/cont-ext.zip third party CONTEXT modules context/current/cont-win.zip a binary version of the texmfstart script context/current/cont-ppc.zip chemical formulas in TEX: PPCHTEX context/current/cont-mpd.zip METAPOST to PDF converter context/install/cont-bas.zip base TEX distribution context/install/justtex.zip minimal CONTEXT distribution (no binaries) context/install/mswintex.zip minimal CONTEXT binaries (windows) context/install/linuxtex.zip minimal CONTEXT binaries (linux) context/install/macosxtex.zip minimal CONTEXT binaries (macosx) context/install/mswincontext.zip stand-alone CONTEXTediting environment (windows) Thank you very much ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
