bug: space before \stoptextbackground is lost
by Gou Lingfeng 28 May '21

28 May '21

Example: ----------------- \definetextbackground[placeholder][location=text,alternative=4] \starttext a. \startcolor[red]% b. \stopcolor c. \starttextbackground[placeholder]% d. \stoptextbackground e. f. \stoptext ----------------- In the output, there is no space before "e" and there is a space before "c". I'd expect spaces between neighbor sentences, whether textbackground is used or not, just like the usage of startcolor. Thanks, GOU Lingfeng

CGModules update: vim syntax highlighting version 2021.05.24 published.

24 May '21

Aditya Mahajan submitted an update to the vim syntax highlighting package. Version number: 2021.05.24 License type: BSD License (simplified) Wants to be in ConTeXt distribution: yes Wants to be synced with CTAN: yes Summary description: This module uses Vim editor's syntax files to syntax highlight verbatim code in ConTeXt Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bugfix release: * Fixes a bug where `--` was being translated to `Ã¢ÂÂ` in LMTX. The fix involved creating a new version of `syntax-highlighting` module for LMTX. The hyphenation options haven't been translated to LMTX yet. * Remove `--clean` flag from list of flags. This was introduced because an ealier version on neovim was still reading `.viminfo` files when called in `-i NONE`. However, the flag was added in the wrong location, so now custom `.vimrc` files were not being read (Reported and debugged by Nicola on the mailing list). Recent version of neovim seems to honor `-i NONE` option, so the `--clean` option was simply removed. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

README for pending new subscribers March 2021
by Taco Hoekwater 01 Apr '21

01 Apr '21

Hi all, Regretfully, we have had problems with a hacker messing with the html subscription page of this mailing list. In mitigation, we have disabled web - based subscription requests completely. From now on, subscription to this mailing list can only be requested by sending an email message to dev-context-request(a)ntg.nlwith “subscribe" as the Subject. Unfortunately, it was impossible for us to differentiate between "hacked" and “legit” subscription requests made during the month of March 2021 so to prevent our mail server from being blacklisted as email sender we have had to discard all pending subscription requests. This means that anyone that has tried to subscribe to dev-context during the past month (that has not received a confirmation message from mailman welcoming them to the mailing list) will have to re-start the subscription process. Apologetically, Taco — Taco Hoekwater E: taco(a)bittext.nl genderfluid (all pronouns)
