Hello, I want to insert a table of contents but all I get is the following error message in the created pdf-file: [part,chapter,section,subsection,subsubsection not found/processed] According to the mp-cb-en.pdf page 51/52 documentation I included the following lines to the setup area: \definelist[chapter] \setuplist [chapter] [before=\blank, after=\blank, style=bold] \definelist[section] \setuplist [section] [alternative=d] \definecombinedlist [contents] [chapter,section] [level=subsection] and \placecontent after the \starttext and in front of the first \chapter. What am I doing wrong here? Frank

RE: FWD: [NTG-context] \inmargin, \setupindenting, and overfull boxes

Hi Taco and all, More on \inmargin and overfull boxes: If I define, e.g. a quote \start-stop the overfull boxes come back, even with Taco's definition: ====================================================== \setupoutput[pdftex]% \setupindenting[medium] \let\normalinmargin\inmargin \def\inmargin#1{{\parindent0pt\normalinmargin{#1}}} \definestartstop [quote] [before={\startnarrower[1*left,1*right]\blank[big]}, after={\stopnarrower\blank[big]}] \starttext \startquote \input knuth \inmargin{This is a test.} \input knuth {\parindent0pt\inmargin{This is a test.}} \stopquote \stoptext ====================================================== Taco, any more hacks up your sleeve? ;-) And thank you very much for the last ones!

BibTeX module (convert 'and others' to 'et~al.')
by Michael Fuchs 07 May '05

07 May '05

Hi! Is there a possibility to create 'et~al.' in a listed publication in the publication list? In my bbl file there is an entry: \startpublication[k=Assafiri:2003mv,t=article, a={Assafiri et~al.},y=2003, n=49,s=Ass03] \artauthor[]{Y.}[Y.]{}{Assafiri} \artauthor[]{}[]{}{others} \pubyear{2003} \arttitle{{Double $\pi^0$ photoproduction on the proton at GRAAL}} \journal{Phys. Rev. Lett.} \volume{90} \pages{222001} \stoppublication In the publication list this will be: Ass03 Assafiri, Y. and others, (2003). Double ... photoproduction on the proton at GRAAL. Phys. Rev. Lett., 90:222001. I would like to replace "and others" by "et~al.". Best regards Michael

RE: FWD: [NTG-context] \inmargin, \setupindenting, and overfull boxes

Hi Taco and all, I found a temporary solution: Given a \start-\stopnarrower environment like =============================================== \definestartstop [quote] [before={\startnarrower[1*middle]\blank[big]}, after={\stopnarrower\blank[big]}] =============================================== Then the following will avoid the overfull box: =============================================== \let\normalinmargin\inmargin \def\inmargin#1{{\parindent0pt \normalinmargin{#1}}} \def\INMARGIN#1{\advance\leftskip by -2\parindent \inmargin{#1} \advance\rightskip by -2\parindent} =============================================== Of course this solution is not general, and depends on the actual setup of \start-\stopnarrower. The general problem with \inmargin appears to be that all parindents need to be reset. I could not find a correct way to incorporate my solution above into Taco's original definition. If any of you have a better idea, please let me know! Best Idris ============================ Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

Perhaps >you have the \let line inside another macro or inside a buffer that >is called more than once something similar. I placed your definition in a \start-\stopenvironment file. The \inmargins are in \product files each of which calls the environment file in its preamble. If I compile just one product (say the second \product from the project), there appears to be no problem. But if I compile the entire project, TeX chokes on that same product. Do you think this may be the problem? Best Idris ============================ Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

Hi Taco, Ok your hack works for small files but in my larger work this is causing TeX's capacity to overload (indeed, I don't think I've run into this particular overload message before; does the `255' signify some ceiling here?): ======================================================= ! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [grouping levels=255]. \normalinmargin #1->{ \parindent 0pt \normalinmargin {#1}} \normalinmargin ...indent 0pt \normalinmargin {#1} } \normalinmargin ...indent 0pt \normalinmargin {#1} } \normalinmargin ...indent 0pt \normalinmargin {#1} } \normalinmargin ...indent 0pt \normalinmargin {#1} } \normalinmargin ...indent 0pt \normalinmargin {#1} } ... ===================================================== Although if I implement this manually it does not overload TeX: =================================================== \setupoutput[pdftex]% \setupindenting[medium] %\let\normalinmargin\inmargin %\def\inmargin#1{{\parindent0pt \normalinmargin{#1}}} \starttext \input knuth {\parindent0pt\inmargin{This is a test.}} \stoptext =================================================== Something about that pseudo-recursive definition I suppose? It may take a while for me to narrow this new problem down to a small file, but I can privately send you the larger files if you care to look at this. Thnx 4 all your help. Best Idris >===== Original Message From Taco Hoekwater <taco(a)elvenkind.com> ===== >Hi Idris, > >It's definately a \parindent, but I cannot figure whence it came. >Anyway, if you need an immediate fix, the following hack works: ============================ Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

\inmargin, \setupindenting, and overfull boxes
by Idris Samawi Hamid 06 May '05

Dear cartel, Here is one for you-) If you uncomment the \setupindenting you will get an overfull hbox; a real nuisance when you have dozens of \inmargin's...

BibTeX problem (all refs are [??])
by Tobias Burnus 06 May '05

06 May '05

Hello, I've the feeling that I miss something obvious, but currently t-bib does not work at all; I mean tex runs and bibtex happily creates the .bbl file, but I get "cite argument myReference unknown". I have: texexec : TeXExec 5.2.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeX, 3.14159-1.10b-2.1 (Web2C 7.4.5) context : ver: 2005.01.06 cont-en : ver: 2005.01.06 fmt: 2005.1.8 mes: english And t-bib.tex claims "version=2005.01.04". In the TeX file: \usemodule[bib] \setupbibtex[database=JHund] \setuppublications[alternative=aps] \setuppublications[numbering=yes,refcommand=num] ... \cite[phd:Haverkort:2005] ... \placepublications In the log file: publications : loading database from JHund.bbl (./JHund.bbl) systems : begin file JHund at line 8 publications : warning: cite argument phd:Haverkort:2005 unknown on 61 But: grep phd:Haverkort JHund.bbl \startpublication[k=phd:Haverkort:2005,t=phdthesis, Any ideas? Tobias
