typescript
by Michael Saunders 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

I am trying to get a minimal working example so that I have something to tinker with. C:\contextminimal\tex\texmf-local\type-garamondprem.tex contains only: \starttypescript [serif] [garamondprem] \definetypeface [garamondprem] [rm] [serif] [name:garamondpremrpromed] [default] \stoptypescript (garamondpremrpromed is a name returned by mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=*Garamond*.) I run: luatools --generate and texmf-local is found. In my preamble: \usetypescriptfile [type-garamondprem] \usetypescript [garamondprem] \setupbodyfont [garamondprem,12pt] When I run Context, the result contains only Latin Modern.

xmlindex getting attributes and more
by Hans van der Meer 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

(1) How does one retrieve an attribute from an element collected with \xmlindex{node{lpath}{n}? (2) I don't understand in xml:test \xmlcount{#1}{} giving 1 for an answer, whereas \xmlcount{#1}{*} and \xmlcount{#1}{/abc} yield 2 as is expected. (3) With the code below \xmlindex starts looping on an empty lpath, whereas like \xmltext{} react without problem. Problem is showed by \xmlindex, \xmlfirst, \xmllast, \xmlall, \xmlconcat Behaviour is not shown by \xmltext{node}{}, \xmlstripped, \xmlstrip Is this a bug in \xmlindex's underlying lua? ! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [text input levels=127]. \xmlindex ...ua {lxml.index("#1","#2",\number #3)} \@@su:xml:test #1->test:\xmlindex {#1}{}{1} \par l.7 } \xmlindex ...ua {lxml.index("#1","#2",\number #3)} \@@su:xml:test #1->test:\xmlindex {#1}{}{1} \par \startxmlsetups xml:testsetups \xmlsetsetup{test}{test|abc}{xml:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:testsetups} \startxmlsetups xml:test test:\xmlindex{#1}{}{1}\par % << empty lpath fails \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:abc abc:\xmlflush{#1}\par \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessfile{test}{test.xml}{} \stoptext <test> <abc>ABC-1</abc> <abc>ABC-2</abc> </test> Hans van der Meer

do not understand \xmlindex
by Hans van der Meer 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

I do not understand the behaviour of \xmlindex in the code below. The goal is to extract the contents of node <abc>-number 1. The strange things is that \xmltext returns the contents of both the <abc> nodes, but \xmlindex returns nothing. The returns of the \writestatus calls: >>1>> ab-2 : :: >>2>> ab-2 : :ABC-1ABC-2: \startxmlsetups xml:testsetups \xmlsetsetup{test}{test|ab|abc}{xml:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:testsetups} \startxmlsetups xml:test \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:ab \writestatus{>>1>> \xmltag{#1}-\xmlcount{#1}{/abc}}{:\xmlindex{#1}{/ abc}{1}:} \writestatus{>>2>> \xmltag{#1}-\xmlcount{#1}{/abc}}{:\xmltext{#1}{/ abc}:} \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessfile{test}{test.xml}{} \stoptext Input is: <test> <ab> <abc>ABC-1</abc> <abc>ABC-2</abc> </ab> </test> Hans van der Meer

mkiv and unicode
by Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

Hallo, I work all the time with good old mkii-context, but I have had a lot of problems last time, which could be solved easely if I switch to mkiv. So I wonder if I should change. The main argument for me to stay with mkii is the following: I have a lot of lua scripts withhin scite which are preprocessing my textfiles (string.gsub etc.) These scripts depent on ansi-code and do not work with unicode too. An other problem I have, is to teach scite to use utf-8 per default. (code.page=65001) does not work for me. I have tried this with a lot of versions of scite. Has anybody experiences with scite-lua-scripts and unicode? Wolfgang

Hello, I have a problem with the following code section: ..... \usemodule[fig-base] \usefigurebase[drivepictures] ..... \midaligned{\externalfigure[cabinet][width=7cm]} If I run this code with MKII all the pictures are placed in the document from my picture datebase. If I run this code with MKIV I got only dummy pictures. What do I have do change? Is there a bug in MKIV? Thomas

desperate for xmlstrip
by Hans van der Meer 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

I really need to remove the leading and trailing whitespace from nodes. Tried in vain to get \xmlstrip (and friends like \xmlstripnolines) working. Just doing \xmlstripped{node}{lpath} is not adequate, because I want to order the output when a node contains several subnodes (using \xmlfilter for this). Below a minimal example. Tweaking the \xmlstrip in all sorts of way did not help. Hans van der Meer \startxmlsetups xml:testsetups \xmlsetsetup{test}{test|a|b|c}{xml:*} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:testsetups} \startxmlsetups xml:test \xmlstrip{#1}{} \xmltext{#1}{} No spaces should showup between nodes! \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:a \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:b \xmltext{#1}{} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:c \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessfile{test}{test.xml}{} \stoptext Input xml-file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <test> <a> This is node a: <b> :Node b: </b> <c> :Node c: </c> </a> </test> The result:

oldstyle numbers in TeXGyre fonts
by Thomas A. Schmitz 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

Hi all, Hans, is there or can we have an easy, fast way of setting up the TeXGyre fonts so that they use oldstyle numbers by default? I think this would be attractive at least for the serif fonts termes, pagella, schola, which all have this feature. All best Thomas

text in current node only
by Hans van der Meer 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

How can I restrict the text to that in the current node only. Calling \xmltext{#1}{} gives me not only the text in the current node, but also the text in its subnodes. The latter I want to suppress. Hans van der Meer
