bib module in ConTeXt MKIV - first cite problem
by Bernhard Rosensteiner 07 Oct '09

07 Oct '09

Hello all, following minimal example: \usemodule[bib] \setupbibtex[database=Grundexkursionen] \setupheadtext[de][pubs=Literaturverzeichnis] \setuppublications[alternative=apa-de, numbering=yes, autohang=yes, refcommand=author] \unprotect\def\scAuthorname#1#2#3#4#5% {\bibdoif{#2}{#2\bibalternative\c!vonsep}% \sc{#3}\bibalternative\c!surnamesep\tf \bibdoif{#5}{#5\bibalternative\c!juniorsep}% \bibdoif{#4}{#4\unskip}} \protect \def\textcite#1{\sc\cite[authoryear][#1]\tf} \def\ccite#1{\cite[authoryears][#1]} \setuppublicationlist[artauthor=\scAuthorname, author=\scAuthorname] \starttext That´s a literature test \ccite{Burrows:2003rm}. Another literature test \textcite{Pareyvogel}. And the last literature test \ccite {Burrows:2003rm}. That´s all. \completepublications[criterium=all] \stoptext when I do it with ConTeXt MKII all is ok, but in ConTeXt MKIV the first \cite (in my example \ccite) always breaks the line after the first left delimiter (when i use refcommand "authorstyles"). Is this a bug? Are there any workarounds? refcommand=num and refcommand=key don ´t break the lines but all others do. Thanks for help. Bernhard Rosensteiner

Scite + non-global environbment variables
by Wolfgang Hugemann 07 Oct '09

07 Oct '09

Hello to everybody, I have just started with Context, having been working with LaTeX (i.e. MikTeX / TeXnicCenter under WIndows) for quite a while. I installed Contextminimal and Scite just as proposed as the easiest way to get started. As setting global environments variables would interfere with MikTeX, I switched off this option during the installation process (in the GUI Windows installation program). But now I cannot easily start the compilation by pressing Crtl+1 in Scite, bcause this just calls the compiler and the environment variables are of course not set for this process. So which file do I have to change to make Scite call the batch file which sets the environments variables before it calls the compiler? What global Context environment variables would possibly interfere with MikTeX? Greatings from Münster Wolfgang Hugemann

I think it is obvious. Wolfgang

widow/orphan control on lists?
by Bruce 06 Oct '09

06 Oct '09

I am using context to generate some (mostly multiple choice) exams, which are nested lists. My problem is that I'm sometimes having the questions (the top-level list items) split from the answers (the secondary list items) across page boundaries. Is there some way to resolve this so that list items always remain with the parent? Bruce

by R. Bastian 06 Oct '09

06 Oct '09

Hello, i like the sansserif, 10 pt font. My texts are from time to time scattered (? parsemées) with maths expressions (A_i etc). How is it possible to get the sansserif font ? (now i write A$_i$ but it is not at the best ...) Thanks -- René Bastian www.pythoneon.org www.musiques-rb.org
