Re: [NTG-context] need help for the installation of luatools

Dear Thomas, How careless I am! and sorry not to give you a sufficient information. As you said, lua!=luatex. I downloaded and installed luatex in the folder /usr/texbin. I also copied it as texlua. Now, It seems to me that luatools is working without the previous error. However, there is a problem of doing "luatools --generate" yet because I used TeXlive based on the gwTeX distribution.

Also, context is installed in the folder texmf.pkgs/tex/context I think that it cause the problem. Is it a real cause of the above problem? Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Broken pdfs and many tools don't work

Hello, Curiouser and curiouser :) I've deleted @echo off from mtxrun.cmd, and what it shows: I:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin>mtxrun.cmd --script cache I:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin>setlocal I:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin>set ownpath=I:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin\ I:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin>texlua "I:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin\mtxrun.lua " --script cache Error in lua file loading: cannot open : No such file or directory I:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin>endlocal The texlua complains has completely no sense, since mtxrun.lua file DOES exist at that location. Or what is it looking for? -- Best Vyatcheslav mailto:yatskovsky@gmail.com

Hi all, Doing some tests with xetex, I get this even with the simplest "Hello world" file: ..... ** NOTICE: This document contains a `Preview & Print only' licensed font ** .... The test is executed normally though. Is there something to worry about here? tia -- Jean

need help for the installation of luatools
by Dalyoung Jeong 12 Sep '07

12 Sep '07

Hi, all, I have downloaded binary files(lua5_1_2_Darwin89_bin_tar). After unzip, there are 3 files "bin2c5.1, lua5.1, luac5.1". I copied lua5.1 as luatex and texlua in the folder /usr/texbin. I also copied luatools.lua as luatools in the folder /usr/texbin. I updated the ConTeXt and try to install LuaTeX. But, I got an error as following when I issue "luatools". apple: dalyoung$ luatools texlua: /usr/texbin/luatools:4183: attempt to index global 'lua' (a nil value) stack traceback: /usr/texbin/luatools:4183: in main chunk [C]: ? I am using TeXlive installed with i-installer. Please give me some hints to avoid the errors. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

Interactive slides---hidden field on every page
by Michal Kvasnička 12 Sep '07

12 Sep '07

Good morning or whatever you have now in Europe. I'm preparing my slides. Every slide is divided to three parts (backgrounds): text, header, and bottom. I've got the navigation buttons in the bottom. Now I'd like to add one more button that would open a field on the current page---a field containing the list of content. I'd like it to go to the \Topic I want to discuss and disappear. I tried this: \definefield[Content][check][HelpSetup][content][content] \setupfields[reset] \setupfield[HelpSetup] [width=fit,height=fit,frame=off,option={readonly,hidden}] % \definesymbol[content][\SomeContentText] \def\SomeContentText{% \startframedtext [width=\textwidth, height=fit, frame=on, background=color, backgroundcolor=tmava,framecolor=svetla]% \placecontent} \stopframedtext } % \setupbackgrounds [text] [%backgroundoffset=10pt,%.5cm, background={contentmenu,nextpage}] % \defineoverlay [ContentOnOff] [{\goto{\framed[width=\overlaywidth,height=\overlayheight,frame=off]{\hss}}% [JS(Toggle_Hide{Content})]}]%\overlaybutton{JS(Toggle_Hide{Content})}] % \startinteractionmenu[bottom] \setupinteraction [color=svetla, contrastcolor=black] \hbox to 600pt{% \raise0.4em\hbox{% \framed[width=3em, height=0.7em, frame=off, background={PageCounter,ContentOnOff}]{}} \hss \interactionbuttons[frame=off, width=8em] [firstpage, previouspage,nextpage, lastpage, PreviousJump,NextJump]% \hbox to 1cm{\hss}% \hbox to 44mm{% \interactionbuttons[frame=off][CloseDocument]\hss}% } However, it doesn't work: 1. The list of content is placed only on one page, not at all of them as I would like. 2. The field supposed to show/hide it isn't clickable---it isn't interactive, and does nothing. 3. I use \Topic and \Subject as heads, and I don't know how to put them to the list of content. Can you possibly help me to solve this problem? Sincerely yours Michal Kvasnicka

XeTeX + ConTeXt in TeXShop
by Andrea Valle 12 Sep '07

12 Sep '07

Hi, I was trying to configure teXShop so that it can run texexec --xtx I was following Otared's suggestions: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2006/016502.html I tried a brainless practice, creating the suggested file with #!/bin/tcsh set path= ($path /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current / usr/local/bin) texexec --xtx "$1" but it didn't work, so I changed the provided paths (I'm an Unix ignorant: proceeded by nose, as we say in Italy) And I have this: #!/bin/tcsh set path= ($path /usr/local/texlive/2007/bin/i386-darwin / /usr/texbin) texexec --xtx "$1" (I have mactex on macosx 10.4) In TeXShop while launching the typesetting process I'm having a white console and nothing happens. Any hints?

I don't have much time to investigate properly but there should be a \complexheadnumber defined in core-sec which gives you what you need. This should be tied to \headnumber though, so if that doesn't work it may be to do with where or how you are using the command. Do you have a complete minimal example document? Duncan

luatex + MP
by Thomas A. Schmitz 11 Sep '07

11 Sep '07

Hi all, just a quick one: for the time being, luatex doesn't seem to support any MP graphics, right? Even the most simple files both here and on the garden fail to produce any output. Any hints when this will be included? Best Thomas
