Sorry for the delay, only just moved over to trying newmml... Duncan

shortsetup and environment
by Vit Zyka 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Dear Hans, it seems to me that \shortsetup ignores cd:command with type="environment". Please see the next example: ----------------------------------------------------- \usemodule[set-11] \loadsetups \starttext page (OK): \shortsetup{page} startframedtext (NOTHING): \shortsetup{startframedtext} framedtext (NOTHING): \shortsetup{framedtext} \stoptext ------------------------------------------------------ Vit

Namespace for users
by Wolfgang Schuster 18 Sep '06

18 Sep '06

Hi Hans and all others. Is it possible to add a command to allow users to define their own namespace for commands and modules to avoid problems with macros in the core. I would suggest to use i slightly modified version of the \definesystemvariable command. \def\????prefix {????} \def\@@@@prefix {@@@@} \def\defineuservariable#1{\setevalue{\????prefix#1}{\@@@@prefix#1}} Another question how many letters should we use for our prefixes. Two avoid problems with other users we should use a combination of a user prefix 'xx' (e.g. ws (two letters) or wolf (four letters) for me) and a command prefix 'yy' as already used by ConTeXt (e.g. sf for SpeciFics). --> \defineuservariable{xxyy} or \defineuservariable{xxxxyy} What do you think about my idea.

cont-??.xml and ruby
by Patrick Gundlach 03 Sep '06

03 Sep '06

Hi there, I've started a small library that allows you to access the cont-??.xml files from ruby. There will be a ruby-gem shortly called 'contextsetup'. Most interesting part currently is the html rendering. The project page is at http://rubyforge.org/projects/contextsetup/ If you would like to see anything in this library, just ask (or add it).

\maxnofMPgraphics = 8000 and beginners manual
by Vit Zyka 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

Hi Hans, compiling beginners manual (ma-cb-cz) I had to increase \maxnofMPgraphics = 8000 in meta-ini.tex and refresh format. I tried not to have special format for this manual and gave this redefinition to ma-cb-style.tex. But graphics were spoiled on the first two pages. Is there some way how to bypass a spacial format? The manual (screen mode) has even number of pages. So the last one is added the total number to be odd. But on this last (empty) page the graphic is spoiled, see attch. What is wrong? The manual translation went ahead during summer, more then half chapters are done. Thanks Vit
