Where is the bib module link?
by Xan 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

Hi, If you go to http://modules.contextgarden.net/bib, you get a message that no bib module is avaliable. I suppose that you remove the page because bib (will?) is integraded in ConTeXt release. But, can you restore the link or at least put the documentation module avaliable somewhere? The pdf documentation was very good for consulting options... Regards, Xan. PS: CCme

Hi, For what it's worth: On http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2009.10.27, I noticed that t-bib.mkii, t-bib.mkiv, t-bib.tex, t-bibltx.tex, t-bib.xml, and doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.pdf as well as doc/context/bib/bibmod-doc.tex are all in the list of deleted files. (along with many others). I get the impression that nobody knows why. Are the new files bibl-tra.{mkii, mkiv, lua} their replacement? If so, is there any relevant documentation? (Not mentioned in the list of new files.) Best regards, Robert Blackstone

underdot in Greek module
by Bowen Alan C. 03 Nov '09

03 Nov '09

In MKII (with the latest MKIV), “!” no longer seems to produce underdots (sublinear dots). \usemodule[ancientgreek] [font=GreekDioxipe,scale=1.15,altfont=GreekCanonica,altscale=0.9] \starttext \localgrk{>a!n!'h!r} \stoptext One can work around this this \d{\grk{...}}, but ... And is there a command or key for producing diareseis in Greek, again, using MKII? Alan

possible to run minimal in cygwin?
by Chen Shen 03 Nov '09

03 Nov '09

Hi all, I wonder if it possible to run the MSWin version of context-minimal under Cygwin. I want to use Makefile and other unix tools to automate my build process. I tried modifying the context/tex/setuptex script, and manually set the platform variable to mswin, but when I ran context.cmd, I saw the following error message. The texmf-cache path actually exists. Any hint? Thanks a lot! ======begin cut=========== [Administrator@cygwin test]$ context.cmd test1 Should I create the cache path /cygdrive/c/usr/docs/context/tex/texmf-cache? [ye s|no] [no] Should I create the cache path /cygdrive/c/usr/docs/context/tex/texmf-cache? [ye s|no] [no] MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' ======end cut=========== regards, shenchen

\installlanguage syntax
by Tomáš Pustelník 03 Nov '09

03 Nov '09

Hi, I'm student at Faculty of Informatics at Masaryk university and I'm writing bachelor's thesis this year. One part of the thesis is to document language support and implementation in ConTeXt so someone can use it to implement new language. Right now I'm stuck with command \installlannguage. I can't figure out what these parametres are doing: \c!leftsentence=---, \c!rightsentence=---, \c!leftsubsentence=---, \c!rightsubsentence=---, So I'would really appreciated some more info about them. Thank you for your answers. Tomas Pustelnik

compilation error in mkiv
by Jörg Hagmann 03 Nov '09

03 Nov '09

Trying to compile a text with large sections taken from the html version of a paper, I got compilation errors. I then compiled paragraph by paragraph, until the first error occured. When I couldn't spot the problem, I added word after word, and then character after character. It worked (example) until: ... and, like Mottern, she was not deterred by the existe After adding the next character ("n", by hand), compilation failed with: structure : subject @ level 3 : 0.0.0 -> Science by committee [3.3][4.4] !

Re: [NTG-context] Define exercise captions
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 03 Nov '09

03 Nov '09

Hello, >> I want to be only >> Exercise<SectionNumber>.<ExerciseNumber>, like 1.1, 1.2, etc. >> > You may try prefixset=section. > > Thank you, Longmin, for your suggestion, it works! But other problems persist. Hans (or someone else who can fix it), please, look into my minimal example: \defineenumeration[exercise][title=yes, text=Exercise, prefix=yes, prefixset=section, width=fit] %way=bysection, \starttext \exercise{Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla Bla-bla-bla} Bla-bla-bla \stoptext 1) the text is framed in odd manner and goes out of the page 2) the caption text is put into unexpected round brackets 3) the word "Exercise" is repeated twice, second time inside brackets before caption text. Please, fix it because I use it. If it's impossible at the moment, please, suggest me another way of achieving this. Reagards, Vyatchelsav
