\grabuntil

Hi, the \grabuntil command fails when it uses \begincsname to create the delimiter. \unprotect \protected\def\grabuntil#1% %{\expandafter\syst_helpers_grab\expandafter{\begincsname#1\endcsname}} {\expandafter\syst_helpers_grab\expandafter{\csname#1\endcsname}} \protect \def\starttest{\grabuntil{stoptest}\quotation} \starttext \starttest xxx \stoptest \stoptext Wolfgang

Dumping the equivalence table
by Taco Hoekwater 07 Sep '20

07 Sep '20

Hi, A while ago I posted a trick to Paul Mazaitis about dumping the hash table using tex.hashtokens(). Recently I noticed that while the command works in lmtx, it seems to miss entries, making it somewhat useless for what we tried to do (compare the hash before and after a complicated command like \definefloat. I have no idea what could be wrong, except perhaps it misses chained hash entries or something? Taco

Tracing outputbox in lmtx
by Taco Hoekwater 07 Sep '20

07 Sep '20

Hi, Not really a bug, but: in \tracingall, traditional engines also dump the contents of the \outputbox to the log. This is currently missing in lmtx, and I would really like it back ;) Taco

\placenamedfloat
by Taco Hoekwater 28 Aug '20

28 Aug '20

Hi, In the current version, \placenamedfloat is broken because of a mismatch between lpeg and the user input. This should work but doesn’t: \placefigure[somewhere:delta][whatever]{delta}{} \placenamedfloat[figure][delta] Whereas this works but shouldn’t: \placefigure[somewheredelta][whatever]{delta}{} \placenamedfloat[figure][delta] Also, this new black-magic-y float stuff is not documented. Since it is experimental I get that, but it seems very handy to me. Best wishes, Taco

CGModules update: vim syntax highlighting version 2020.06.29 published.
by modules＠contextgarden.net 29 Jun '20

29 Jun '20

Aditya Mahajan submitted an update to the vim syntax highlighting package. Version number: 2020.06.29 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: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a major release that adds support for XML export. Many thanks to Christoph HintermÃÂ¼ller for the initial implementation and extensive brainstorming and testing. When export is enabled, e.g., using \setupbackend[export=yes] then \definevimtyping[CODE][syntax=..., alternative=colorscheme] \startCODE ... \stopextCODE is exported as <vimtyping detail="colorscheme"> ... </vimtyping> And, \inlineCODE{...} is exported as <inlinevimtyping detail="colorscheme">...</inlinevimtyping> Each line is wrapped inside a `<verbatimline>...</verbatimline>` and each syntax group is wrapped inside `<syntaxgroup detail="vim....">...</syntaxgroup>`. See the updated documentation for details. The module ships with a default CSS file which can be included as \setupexport[cssfile=\vimtypingcssfile] This CSS file tries to mimic the default PDF output. If you want to tweak the output then it is recommended that you copy the default CSS file and modify it as appropriate. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
