Hi Hans, the \orelse branch can't be used because \c_symb_found still has the same value.

typo in command

Hans, I’m afraid that strc-sec.mkxl contains a typo in latest LMTX: --- old/strc-sec.mkxl 2020-11-06 21:16:06.701643562 +0100 +++ new/strc-sec.mkxl 2020-11-06 23:47:40.673938469 +0100 @@ -1144,7 +1144,7 @@ {\ifconditional\c_strc_sectioning_empty % this needs checking \penalty\plustenthousand - \vskivskip-\lineheight + \vskip-\lineheight \kern\zeropoint \prevdepth\strutdepth \fi} Otherwise, ConTeXt complains about undefined \vskivskip. I hope it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

\setuplanguage
by Tomas Hala 04 Nov '20

04 Nov '20

Hi all, recently, in the ConTeXt list someone asked how to install Esperanto. I wanted to advise him, so I tried to do it on my computer and I came across the following problem: According to the wiki documentation (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setuplanguage) I should use "pattern=file" but neither file with full pathname, nor without works in the testing code below (TL2020). The only one way how to setup it is to use a language code. Did I anything wrong, or is it only misdocumented on wiki? Or a feature not implemented yet? Best wishes, Tomáš \starttext\hsize1dd \installlanguage[eo][space=packed,state=start] %\setuplanguage[eo][patterns=/usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/tex/context/patterns/mkiv/lang-cs.lua] % NO %\setuplanguage[eo][patterns=lang-cs.lua] % NO %\setuplanguage[eo][patterns=lang-cs] % NO \setuplanguage[eo][patterns=cs] % YES \mainlanguage[eo] \input capek-cz \stoptext

Hi Hans, > On 15 Sep 2020, at 18:44, Hans Hagen <j.hagen(a)xs4all.nl> wrote: > > (2) Another change is in the \startdocument mechanism. This (already old and rusted) wrapper runs on top of variables but we think no one knows (or uses) that. So, it now is a real wrapper with inheritance and such. It is dedicated to Tomas Hala who had to struggle with the old one but still gave a presentation using it. Here's an example: > > \definedocument[thesis] > > \setupdocument[a=b,e=f] > \setupdocument[thesis][a=x,c=d] > > \startsetups[document:start] > START > \stopsetups > > \startsetups[thesis:stop] > STOP > \stopsetups > > \startthesis > > (\currentdocument/a): \documentvariable{a}\par > (\currentdocument/c): \documentvariable{c}\par > (\currentdocument/e): \documentvariable{e}\par > > \stopthesis The auto-inheritance of the setups does not work yet, because the \definedocument[thesis] does not set up local version of the before= and after= keys of \startthesis. \definedocument (re)defines the value of the actual setup “thesis:start” correctly to inherit the parent’s \directsetuo, but because the actual before and after keys are inherited from the (document) parent as well, the effect on \startthesis still remains equivalent to this: \setupdocument [thesis] [before=\directsetup{document:start}, after=\directsetup{document:stop}] Best wishes, Taco

Re: [dev-context] [NTG-context] update and meeting // towards 'in'
by Tomas Hala 19 Sep '20

19 Sep '20

Hi Hans, # We also considered that in order to enforce the use of si units the # 'in' should go away but that has been postponed (it is anyway last # in the checked keywords so has no overhead). I do not remember details of the discussion about 'in' but I would like to say that 'in' is quite important unit, especially for Americans. We have to take into consideration that paper and other things are sold in inches in the USA and it is not very comfortable to recalculate it to the metric system. So I vote for keeping it forever, eg. till Americans will completely convert to SI. Best wishes, Tomáš

Running lists
by Tomas Hala 17 Sep '20

17 Sep '20

Hi all, playing with itemize environment (reverberations of our discussion with Wolfgang at the meeting) I came across the wrong settings of running lists: \starttext %\startitemize[a] \startitemize[a,text] \item xxx \item yyy \stopitemize \stoptext gives items in the running list with both parentheses and moreover a dot. For English (which is a default language) items letters (and figures as well) should be only in parentheses and without a dot. Wolfgang confirmed that there is no option to disable the stopper for running items only and proposed to add additional values to the placestopper key, e.g. \setupitemize [each] [placestopper=yes|no|inline|display] Best wishes, Tomáš
