luatools not finding files in TL 2010
by Mojca Miklavec 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hans, if I run mtxrun --script patterns --convert on TeX Live 2010 it stops working with cannot open : No such file or directory #1 feature request: it would be nice to have a slightly more informative feedback The problem appears in the following line: function scripts.patterns.prepare() dofile(resolvers.find_file("char-def.lua")) end inside mtx-patterns.lua since apparently luatools doesn't find char-def.lua > luatools char-def.lua [no response] > kpsewhich char-def.lua /Users/mojca/soft/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/char-def.lua [kpsewhich finds the file] In ConTeXt minimals this works fine. #2 bugfix request: any idea why it fails or how to fix it? Thanks a lot, Mojca

Re: [NTG-context] Windows Minimals installer is broken -- mtxrun does not, work

For me, it looks rather like a bug, not a feature :) In the installer, I need to setup PATH variable before executing the real script, and this thing bothers me. -- Best Regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

Syllabus title page (newbie problems)
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hi, I'm making my syllabus title page with standard "bureaucratic" elements, like signature stamps, etc. Please, look at the attached png file for idea how it should look like. I started new page using \startstandardmakeup, which centered the text too. But I have problems with signature: how to reset the alignment to left, and, more important, how to place two \fillinrules in one line of text ("_day_"_month_ year)? Now my script looks as follows: ----------------------------------- \setupbodyfont[mscore,rm,14pt] \usemodule[fullpage][style={cm,headings}] \starttext \startstandardmakeup[doublesided=no,align=center,style={\switchtobodyfont[ss,18pt]}] \setupbackgrounds[header][text][background=] \setupindenting[none] \setupinterlinespace[28pt] % \let\\=\blank {\bf NATIONAL AVIATION UNIVERSITY} INSTITUTE OF ELECTRONICS AND CONTROL SYSTEMS Airspace control systems faculty Aviation computer-integrated complexes department \startstandardmakeup[align=left] %is there better command for this? \setupnarrower[left=12cm] \startnarrower[left] "Approved" Deputy Rector for Academics \fillinrules[]{}{A.Polukhin} \fillinrules{"}{"}\fillinrules[]{}{\currentdate[year]}\par %have problem here: need to keep two rules on one line \stopnarrower \stopstandardmakeup \par\vfill {\tfx Kiyv \currentdate[year]} \stopstandardmakeup \stoptext -- Best Regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

The default setup for \part has the empty value for placehead and to show the content you have to set \setuphead[part][placehead=yes] Wolfgang

Windows Minimals installer is broken -- mtxrun does not work
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hello everybody and esp. Mojca, I started updating my Windows installer code to include "--extras" switch. Unfortunately, I found that mtxrun.cmd does not exist anymore and is replaced by mtxrun.exe. Moreover, mtxrun.exe is not working at all, complaining "mtxrun: unable to locate texlua.exe on the search path", while texlua.exe is present in the same folder! Please, help me fix this issue, because installer is broken for the moment. Regards Best, Vyatcheslav

LuaTeX error ... object in use
by Michael Saunders 31 May '10

31 May '10

I keep running into errors that look like this: ! LuaTeX error ...imal/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/lpdf-ini.lua:345: pdf.immediateobj() object in use I can't find anything specific that's causing them. For example: input{chapter1} input{chapter2} fails, but: %input{chapter1} input{chapter2} and input{chapter1} %input{chapter2} work. Or, I may make a small change, get the error, reverse the change, and continue to get the error. Maybe I need to allocate more memory somehow? what's wrong?

setups in typescripts
by Bernhard Rosensteiner 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hello, i have made a typescript which works. the only thing is that i have in my typescript something like: \startsetups [fallbackfonts] … \stopsetups \starttypescript [bla] \setups[fallbackfonts] … \stoptypescript referring in my document to the typescriptfile with \usetypescriptfile[Mytypescript] does not load the setups and so the font fallback is not working (obviously \usetypescriptfile only loads the typescripts). When i do: \input Mytypescript in the document all works as expected. So my question is how can i load setups with \usetypescriptfile Maybe i have to make a extra „fontfallback-setups“ file, but i don´t know how it is recognized by context. Please help. best regards Bernhard
