Hi, If I put \index{{\sl something}} it appears in the first position of index. How can I solve that putting it alphabetically? Thanks in advance, Xan.

[PATCH] Add begin_of_buffer and end_of_buffer hooks for lua pretty printers
by Matthijs Kooijman 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Hi all, while working on a custom pretty printer, I was having the need to keep some state variables for the duration of one buffer, and reset them again for the next buffer. With the current hooks a pretty printer has available, this is not possible, since you never know what the first and last lines are. The attached patch adds two new hooks, begin_of_buffer and end_of_buffer, which will be called when typing a buffer or a file (e.g. \typebuffer or \typefile). They are not called for typing a phrase (e.g. \type). Is this patch acceptable for inclusion? Gr. Matthijs

standard focus with interaction is not working
by Khaled Hosny 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

\setupinteraction[focus=standard] has no effect, I get the usual "fit page" mode instead. Works fine with MkII. Example: \setupinteraction[state=start,focus=standard] \starttext \goto{Knuth}[knuth] \page \input knuth \textreference[knuth]{} \stoptext A side note, I'm just wondering why "standard" isn't the default mode, "fit page" is very annoying and distracts me while reading and I wonder why anyone would need that in regular documents?

Possible Bug(s) in bibl-ams.tex (mkii)
by Xan 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Hi, 1) First of all, I want to say that \setuppublicationlayout[incollection]{% \insertartauthors{}{}{\insertthekey{}{, }{}}% \insertarttitle{, \bgroup }{\egroup}{}% \inserttitle {, in % \bgroup\it}% {\egroup \inserteditors{, edited by }% {}% {} \insertseries {\insertvolume{, number }{~in }{ }}% {}% {}% \insertchap{\unskip, }{ }{ }% \insertpubyear{(% \insertpublisher{}%{, }%{}% }{)\insertEdition{, }{ ed. }{}}{}% \insertpages{\unskip, p.~}{. }{\unskip. }% }% {In \insertcrossref{}{}{}% \insertchap{\unskip, }{ }{ }% \insertpages{\unskip, p.~}{. }{\unskip. }% }% \insertNote{ }{.}{}% } must be: \setuppublicationlayout[incollection]{% \insertartauthors{}{}{\insertthekey{}{, }{}}% \insertarttitle{, \bgroup }{\egroup}{}% \inserttitle {, in % \bgroup\it}% {\egroup \inserteditors{, edited by }% {}% {} \insertseries {\insertvolume{\unskip, number }{~in }{ }}% {}% {}% \insertchap{\unskip, }{ }{ }% \insertpubyear{(% \insertpublisher{}%{, }%{}% }{)\insertEdition{, }{ ed. }{}}{}% \insertpages{\unskip, p.~}{. }{\unskip. }% }% {In \insertcrossref{}{}{}% \insertchap{\unskip, }{ }{ }% \insertpages{\unskip, p.~}{. }{\unskip. }% }% \insertNote{ }{.}{}% } with \unskip before number (in /usr/share/texmf/context/bib/bibl-ams.tex) . Else a white space between coma and precedent text is putting. I used ConTeXt ver 2007.09.28 MKII but I think this error is in more actual versions. 2) For the other hand, if we want to that publisher is inserted, we have to put uncomment lines in publisher: \insertpublisher{}{, }{}% With this change, context puts me the year of publication. Mysteriously with the original, ConTeXt puts me the publisher (is this correct Taco???). For example, in @incollection{millerIIIa2, author = "Charles F. {{Miller III}}", title = "Decision problems for groups: survey and reflections", booktitle = "Algorithms and Classification in Combinatorial Group Theory", year = "1992", publisher = "Springer-Verlag", address = "Berlin", editor = "Gilbert Baumslag and Charles F. {{Miller III}}", pages = "1-59", series = "MSRI Publications", volume = 23 } I get (in the past) C.F M;iller III, Decision problems for groups: survey and reflections, in {\em Algorithms and Classification in Combinatorial Group Theory}, edited by G. Baumslag and C. F. Miller III, number 23 in MSRI Publications (Springer-Verlag, Berlin), p. 1-59. Now I get, C.F M;iller III, Decision problems for groups: survey and reflections, in {\em Algorithms and Classification in Combinatorial Group Theory}, edited by G. Baumslag and C. F. Miller III, number 23 in MSRI Publications (Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1992), p. 1-59. For the other hand, in @article, for example in @article{stillwell, title = "The Word Problem and the isomorphism problem for groups", author = "John Stillwell", journal = "Bulletin (New Series) of the American Mathematical Society", volume = 6, number = 1, year = 1982, month = "Jan" } I think it could be a dot after number, but I can't put manually: if we have pages after, we have dot and comma. Actually, I think we need if clause, but I don't know how get it. Taco, you surely do it better ;-). Always the bib entries should be final dot (isn't?). 3) For the other hand, I think we need a dot between pages and note in @article. For example in @article{novikov, author = "P. S. Novikov", title = "On the algorithmic unsolvability of the word problem in group theory", journal = "Proceedings of Steklov Mathematical Institute", year = "1955", volume = "44", pages = "1-145", note = "Traducció anglesa a l'American Mathematical Society Translations (2) 9 (1958), 1-122" } we don't have ". Traducció ...." See the dot. 4) Finally, @inbook, I have dot between title and address and year. For example in @book{grillet, author = "Pierre Antoine Grillet", title = "Abstract Algebra", edition = "second", year = "2007", publishers = "Springer", series = "Graduate Texts in Mathematics", address = "New York" } I get P. A. Grillet, {\em Abstract Algebra}. (New York, 2007), second ed. and it should be: P. A. Grillet, {\em Abstract Algebra} (New York, 2007), second ed. Well I hope you note this. Not of all, Xan.

Thank you! The following works fine for me: \defineframed [WhiteOnBlack] [background=color, backgroundcolor=black, foregroundcolor=white] \setuppagenumbering[command=\WhiteOnBlack,location={footer,margin}] Concerning table of contents label, I will play with it latter. Regards, Vyatcheslav
