updates without rsync
by richard.stephens＠converteam.com 30 May '09

30 May '09

Gentlemen and Ladies, I am using ConTeXt on a company Windows PC behind two firewalls with no possibility of accessing or changing the firewalls. I've tried to update using the minimals installation and rsync, but nothing gets through. What is the recommended method of updating to the latest ConTeXt when rsync is not an option? The last time I tried, I downloaded cont-tmf.zip from http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-1.htm and unzipped the contents to overwrite everything in texmf-local. Is this still the best way? Thanks.

Indent after formula in enumeration
by Xan 30 May '09

30 May '09

Hi, I have \setupformulae[indentnext=auto] but when I put a \startformula \stopformula in demo environment it does not indent. Why? What can I do for getting that? My environment is: \defineenumeration[demo][text={Demostració.\space}, number=no,location=serried,width=fit,headstyle=italic, indentnext=yes,between=\blank,textdistance=.5em,closesymbol={\mathematics{\Box}},style=normal] Thanks a lot, Xan.

Theorems with arguments like amsthm
by Xan 30 May '09

30 May '09

Hi, I have my environment of context that defines the theorems and lemmas like amsthm in latex. For example, for lemmas, I have: \defineenumeration [lemma] [text={Lemma},headstyle=bold,between=\blank,titledistance=0em,textdistance=1em, stopper={.\space},location=serried,left={\bgroup\bf},right={\egroup},width=fit,style=italic] The question is how can I get the typical argument of lemmas: "Lema 4.1 (superadditive lemma)"? How can I add the possibility that lemma _could_ have one argument (the phrase in parentesis)?. I'm not a TeX programmer, such a ConTeXt user. Any hint? Thanks, Xan.

Latest beta and MKII problem

29 May '09

The latest beta (ConTeXt ver: 2009.05.28 14:36 MKII fmt: 2009.5.28 int: english/english) no longer processes my files: all I get is complaints about an extra \else. That is, \definehead[LevelCHead][chapter] \setuphead[LevelCHead][style={\tf \it},alternative=text,number=no,page=no] \starttext Hello world! \LevelCHead{Hello world!} Donec placerat. Nullam nibh dolor, blandit sed, fermentum id, imperdiet sit amet, neque. Nam mollis ultrices justo. Sed tempor. \stoptext gets !

Still a few problems though! I have installed it to C:\tools\context. Everything goes well until 'mktexlsr' which returns: Cannot open C:/tools/context/texmf-project/ls-R to write. Cannot open C:/tools/context/texmf-fonts/ls-R to write. Cannot open C:/tools/context/texmf-extra/ls-R to write. because the folders do not exist. So I've created empty folders just in case and no more warnings! Then all goes well until 'context --pdf myfile.tex' which returns: luatex.exe: c:/tools/context/texmf-cache/tuatex-cache/b7bcb6722e1fe509b85ff004c33e8274/formats/cont-en.fmt: No such file or directory MtxRun | fatal error, code 1 and 'texexec --pdf myfile.tex' returns: c:\tools\context\texmf-mswin\bin\mtxrun.lua:8603: attempt to concatenate a nil value Any ideas?

Is this still the best way? I've got myself in a terrible mess now! I downloaded cont-tmf.zip and unzipped the contents, then tried to follow Hans' instructions, i.e.: > mktexlsr > luatools --generate > luatools --selfupdate > mtxrun --selfupdate > texexec --make (for mkii) > context --make (for mkiv) Unfortunately, none of these commands runs without errors! SO, I decided to reinstall from scratch. That's where my problems really started! I searched around the Wiki and found lots of pages on installation, but none of them seem quite right. I looked at http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/minstall.pdf but it looks old and does not seem to relate to the stuff I've downloaded. >From various places, I think I need to do the following, but some details are missing: 1. Install Ruby 2. Install Perl 3. Download cont-tmf.zip and unzip contents to <installdir> 4. Set environment variables: OSFONTDIR = C:\WINDOWS\Fonts TEXMF = <installdir>\scripts\context\stubs\mswin TEXMFCACHE = C:\TEMP TEXMFCNF = <installdir>\web2c TEXMFOS = ?????? others ???? 5. From command window, run installation scripts: mktexlsr luatools --generate luatools --selfupdate mtxrun --selfupdate texexec --make (for mkii) context --make (for mkiv) 6. To generate new pdf run: context --pdf myfile.tex 7. Anything else I've missed ???? Thanks to all, Richard Converteam UK Ltd. Registration Number: 5571739 and Converteam Ltd.

LilyPond module 2009-05-27
by Henning Hraban Ramm 29 May '09

29 May '09

I'm a bit proud to announce the latest version of the LilyPond bridge module. Download: http://modules.contextgarden.net/t-lilypond Documentation: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/LilyPond and, of course: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/ Changes: - Code cleanup (partly by Wolfgang) - Works with LuaTeX (ConTeXt MkIV) *only*! Also dropped support for EPS inclusion. - Uses subdirectories for temporary and created files to keep your working directory clean The included PDF is still the old one, because ConTeXt's processing of modules is broken. It makes no big sense anyway. Greetlings from Lake Constance! Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
