\framed[width=broad]
by Wolfgang Schuster 19 Jun '12

19 Jun '12

Hi, framed has the two keyword “fit” and “broad” for the height parameter but both have the same effect. Can this be changed and “height=broad” result in “height=\vsize” like “width=broad“ results in “width=\hsize”. There are cases like this \setupheadertexts[{\framed[width=\hsize,height=\vsize]{…}}] where I would prefer to write “width=broad” and “height=broad” instead of passing dimensions to the keys.

Bug in \usepath
by Marco 18 Jun '12

18 Jun '12

There's something fishy with \usepath. A simple call fails with ! LuaTeX error ...-new/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/data-res.lua:688: attempt to get length of local 'subpaths' (a nil value) stack traceback: ...-new/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/data-res.lua:688: in function 'registerextrapath' ...-new/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/file-job.lua:71: in function 'usepath' <main ctx instance>:1: in main chunk. \usepath [chapters] \starttext Foo \stoptext Marco

Adding setuvalue etc to syst-gen.mkii
by Aditya Mahajan 18 Jun '12

18 Jun '12

Hi Hans. Can you add the following block of macros from syst-aux.mkiv to syst-gen.mkii? \def\setuvalue #1{\normalprotected\expandafter \def\csname#1\endcsname} \def\setuevalue #1{\normalprotected\expandafter\edef\csname#1\endcsname} \def\setugvalue #1{\normalprotected\expandafter\gdef\csname#1\endcsname} \def\setuxvalue #1{\normalprotected\expandafter\xdef\csname#1\endcsname} I wonder how long should I support MkII for my modules?

Change preset to setups in page-lay.mkiv
by Aditya Mahajan 14 Jun '12

14 Jun '12

Hi, \setuplayouts has a "preset" option, which is used for specifying setups. This is the only instance where "preset" is used to specify "setups". All other uses of "preset" is in layers. I think that it will be more consistent to change that option to setups. Aditya

Hi Hans, ctx files can’t be used in the last beta. This context --ctx=s-mod.ctx tabl-ntb.mkiv generates the following error message: ctxname: s-mod.ctx...ex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua:261: bad argument #1 to 'match' (string expected, got nil) Wolfgang

bTABLE in header and document give unexpected behavior
by Sido Jensma 11 Jun '12

11 Jun '12

This is the first time I am posting here. I am not really sure what a typical bug report should look like. I had posted a question on stack-exchange and it was suggested to post a bug report here. I’m not sure if this is a bug, but it was unexpected behavior to me. The original question was posted here: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/59134/strange-problem-with-frames-co… And a ‘not-so-minimal’ example of what is happening is attached (see the last page). I have tested this with extreme tables and don’t get the same behavior.

Comma lists and Lua
by Wolfgang Schuster 07 Jun '12

07 Jun '12

Hi, in the following example the space before the “one” in the line \ctxlua{userdata.commalist(" one, two, three")} is visible in the output. I guess this counts as bug because in the assignment list the space before “a=x” is removed. Example: \starttext \startluacode userdata = userdata or {} function userdata.commalist(list) local list = utilities.parsers.settings_to_array(list) context.starttabulate() for index, value in next, list do context.NC() context.quotation(index) context.NC() context.quotation(value) context.NC() context.NR() end context.stoptabulate() end function userdata.parameters(list) local list = utilities.parsers.settings_to_hash(list) context.starttabulate() for key, value in next, list do context.NC() context.quotation(key) context.NC() context.quotation(value) context.NC() context.NR() end context.stoptabulate() end \stopluacode \ctxlua{userdata.commalist("one,two,three")} \ctxlua{userdata.commalist(" one, two, three")} \ctxlua{userdata.parameters("a=x,b=y,c=z")} \ctxlua{userdata.parameters(" a=x, b=y, c=z")} \stoptext Wolfgang
