Re: [NTG-context] two questions on ConTeXt terminology

Hi Pablo, Like I mentioned it depends of the paradigm one uses or to be more expressive: the meta level of discussion. To All: please excuse the use of buzz words in the following. The start/stop mechanism has a different semio-syntactic usage depending on the context (not ConTeXt) it is used

[NTG-context] Columns and clubpenalty problem

Hi, with the recent Betas, and the Current, I have a problem with columns and clubpenalty. In the following minimal the long item (item 1) will introduce a column break (instead of a simple line break): \def \defaultclubpenalty{\plustenthousand} \starttext \startitemize [columns] \item This

Re: [NTG-context] two questions on ConTeXt terminology

Hi Keith, many thanks for your explanation. Now I understand why start/stop in ConTeXt and begin/end in LaTeXt may be different. The audience I intend to address is people that can use a word processor. The less technical the details are, the easier would be the explanation to be understood.

[NTG-context] draw random branched hydrocarbons

I wrote this code to randomly draw organic branched structures. Since the organic structures have different dimensions I'm using the scale function to normalize the width. The result is a rather ugly because the structures are displayed with fonts with different sizes. Is there a way to normalize

Hi Wolfgang, I have the following code: \definefontfeature[fakeslanted][slant=.25] \definefontfamily[mainface][serif][TeX Gyre Pagella][slantedfont={* Regular},sl=features:fakeslanted] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext This is {\em slanted}. \stoptext But I don’t know how to define

[NTG-context] Problem with matematics (derivative and brackets combinations) + wrong pagenumbering

Hello ConTeXist. I type some math now. When I use the symbol derivative in combination with symbols brackets, so the result does not look too good. Compared to the result in LaTeX output is almost unusable. It is possible to achieve a better result? In addition, I noticed that the page

Re: [NTG-context] Problem with matematics (derivative and brackets combinations) + wrong pagenumbering

Hello Jannik. Thanx. I know about ^\prime but this is the same as ^{'}. In this case is derivative symbol too higher - but emergency it can of course use. Use ^{'} or ^{\ prime} in LaTeX leads to equally poor results (too higher). Apparently to terms with the fact that it simply will not

[NTG-context] A default editor for ConTeXt standalone?

Hi all, just a thought. Some time ago wise people decided to include TeXworks into TeXlive, so that newbies installing TeXlive can get a batteries-included package (not having to choose/install an editor). Would it be (a) reasonable and (b) not too much time-consuming to do a similar move with
