Wrong number for previous/next section value
by Wolfgang Schuster 14 Jan '20

14 Jan '20

Hi, I try to get the counter value of the next section but the result is always the value for the current section (e.g. section 3 shows also 3 as value for the next section). \startbuffer[headnumber] \starttabulate \NC first \EQ \somenamedheadnumber {section} {first} \NC\NR \NC previous \EQ \somenamedheadnumber {section} {previous} \NC\NR \NC current \EQ \somenamedheadnumber {section} {current} \NC\NR \NC next \EQ \somenamedheadnumber {section} {next} \NC\NR \NC last \EQ \somenamedheadnumber {section} {last} \NC\NR \stoptabulate \stopbuffer \starttext \dorecurse{5} {\section{Section #1} \getbuffer[headnumber]} \stoptext Wolfgang

Language settings / French / quotation marks
by Tomas Hala 02 Jan '20

02 Jan '20

Hi all, greetings from BachoTeX. With Jean-Michel, we found out that there is the unsuitable setting for French nested quotation marks in lang-def.mkiv (TL 2018): \c!leftquote=\leftguillemot, \c!rightquote=\rightguillemot, After discussion (also with Damian) the better and most frequently used setting should be the following: \c!leftquote=\upperleftdoublesixquote, \c!rightquote=\upperrightdoubleninequote, %%%%%% \installlanguage [\s!fr] [\c!spacing=\v!packed, \c!leftsentence=\emdash, \c!rightsentence=\emdash, \c!leftsubsentence=\emdash, \c!rightsubsentence=\emdash, \c!leftquote=\upperleftdoublesixquote, \c!rightquote=\upperrightdoubleninequote, \c!leftquotation=\leftguillemot, \c!rightquotation=\rightguillemot, \c!date={\v!day:mnem,\v!space,\v!month,\v!space,\v!year}] %%%%%% Would somebody check it and change it in newer versions? The best, Tomáš

Paragraph indentation after indentnext=no
by Wolfgang Schuster 02 Jan '20

02 Jan '20

Hi Hans, below is a fix for the following question on the mailing list: https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2019/096591.html When you use the "indentnext=no" setting for a environment the following paragraph will never be indented unless you use the \doindentation command. When this happens in an enumeration which already has a indentation option this method isn't the best choice. The reson for this effect is the meaning of the \checkindentation command which changes with the indentnext setting (or the \noindentation and \doindentation commands). One way to fix this is to add "\let\checkindentation\relax" to the rest keywords for \setupalign but I think it's better to ensure \checkindentation gets reset when \setupindenting is called (and the first paragraph should be reset). \unprotect \def\spac_indentation_setup_indeed {% not here: \settrue\c_spac_indentation_indent_first % not here: \parindent\d_spac_indentation_par % not here: \c_spac_indentation_toggle_state\zerocount \processcommacommand[\m_spac_indentation_options]\spac_indentation_apply_step_one % catch small, medium, etc \processcommacommand[\m_spac_indentation_options]\spac_indentation_apply_step_two % catch rest \ifzeropt\parindent\else \doifemptytoks\everypar\spac_indentation_set_everypar \fi - \ifconditional\c_spac_indentation_indent_first\else + \ifconditional\c_spac_indentation_indent_first + \spac_indentation_variant_yes % \let\checkindentation\relax \else \spac_indentation_variant_no \fi \spac_indentation_check_toggle} \protect \setupindenting[yes,big] \starttext \input knuth \noindentation \blank % uncomment one setting below to indent % the first paragraph after \setupindenting % %\let\checkindentation\relax %\doindentation \setupindenting[yes,big] \input knuth \stoptext

Inner/outer alignment resets text direction
by Wolfgang Schuster 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

Hi, when inner/outer alignment of paragraphs is used in a doublesided document with the text direction from RTL, the direction is changed back to LTR starting with the second page. The reason for this is the \signalinnerrealign (or \signalouterrealign) command. %\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \signalinnerrealign % is used in doublesided documents \setupalign[inner,righttoleft] \starttext \dorecurse{3}{\samplefile{weisman}\page} \stoptext Wolfgang

\setupalign[flushinner]
by Wolfgang Schuster 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

Hi, the results of the inner and flushinner (and also outer and flushouter) keywords for \setupalign are reversed compared to MkII. I guess this happened when the code was rewritten. Attached are results from the following example in MkII and MkIV. \setuppapersize[A5][A5] \starttext \startbuffer \startalignment[left] \input ward \stopalignment \stopbuffer \typebuffer \getbuffer \page \startbuffer \startalignment[flushleft] \input ward \stopalignment \stopbuffer \typebuffer \getbuffer \page \startbuffer \startalignment[inner] \input ward \stopalignment \stopbuffer \typebuffer \getbuffer \page \startbuffer \startalignment[flushinner] \input ward \stopalignment \stopbuffer \typebuffer \getbuffer \page \stoptext Wolfgang

[MPtoPDF] Bug and fix for file pattern
by Andreas Scherer 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

Dear list, after a discussion on the texlive mailing list, I was directed to "upstream" ConTeXt garden. so bear with me. Following the canonical MetaPost manual (https://tug.org/docs/metapost/mpman.pdf) I amended the example file "conoscopy.mp" (from http://matagalatlante.org/nobre/down/featpost/MPexamples.html) with the initial line outputtemplate := "%j-%c.mps"; Running this through "mptopdf conoscopy.mp" fails with the error message MPtoPDF 1.4.1 : no filename matches conoscopy Karl Berry immediately found counter-examples for my initial tries to fix this (in the context (sic!) of TeX Live), but after some consideration I believe to have found a generic solution for "mptopdf[.pl]" that copes well with both the default output filename format of MetaPost and the alternative template above (and possibly others, as long as there's a "%c" part present). Attached is a modified version of TL's "mptopdf" that works well on MacTeX (Live 2019) for your consideration. After the internal MetaPost run, the intermediate logfile is scanned for the "output file(s) written:" message, from which the actual "@files" list is deduced. The (first) numerical part is replaced with "*" for the following file "glob"bing. Regards,Andreas Scherer
