m-units
by Vedran Miletić 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

Hi, I made some changes to m-units.tex. According to Wikipedia [1], Bit should be denoted as "bit", Byte as "B" and Baud as "Bd". I also added binary prefixes. Hope this is acceptable. Regards, -- Vedran Miletić [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

Just ran ./first-setup.sh (yesterday it ran fine, now=5:20AM GMT 3.Aug) and it ends very ungracefully: A section from some the first (of more) failure. Am I doing something wrong?

no indent after blank
by Henning Hraban Ramm 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

(latest beta MkIV) With \setupindenting[yes, medium] there shouldn't be an indent after a \blank IMO. How can I suppress it? Greetlings from Lake Constance! Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)

MTXrun | error, no format found with name: cont-en, aborting
by Paul Dostert 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

I'm a moderate context user (finished a 100 page math text recently) and haven't had too many problems except for downloading an occasional beta which has an issue or two. My book compiles just fine on my office computer, but I installed context and get compilation errors on my home laptop (a windows 7 box). I've been able to work through all other problems with context up to this point, sometimes waiting a day or two until someone uploaded a fix in the new beta, but for some reason I've gotten stuck on this one. I installed context via: - Download of context-setup-mswin.zip - unzip to c:\context - run of first-setup.bat (with no args, and same happens with --context=current) - After running, I go to the tex/ directory and run the setuptex.bat - Go back to c:\context and run a test file with just \starttext TEST \stoptext using "context test.tex" - I get the error "MTXrun | error, no format found with name: cont-en, aborting" I also tried using TeXworks, using compilation using texmfstart.exe and texexec. That compiled the original test.tex, but refuses to compile any .tex code with metapost. What, in most cases, does the "MTXrun | error, no format found with name: cont-en, aborting" error indicate? I know that odds are I missed something stupid, but just can't figure it out this time. Thank you for your help and your time. Paul

formula, indentation
by R. Bastian 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

Hello, I use texexec (mk ii). In the resulting PDF, the indentation of the second formula is a bit shorter: \startformula y_i = x_i + \sum b_j\, x_{(i-M_j)} \stopformula \startformula y_i = x_i + \sum a_j\, y_{(i-M_j)}. \stopformula -- René Bastian www.pythoneon.org www.musiques-rb.org http://www.soundsurvey.org.uk/

section -> classe
by R. Bastian 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

Hello, I use texexec (mk ii). I use the following head definition: \definehead[classe][section] \setuphead[classe] [style=type, textstyle=tfc, indentnext=yes, alternative=inmargin, align=broad] The result is numbered, but the title of the section/classe does not appear in the toc. What is missing ? -- René Bastian www.pythoneon.org www.musiques-rb.org http://www.soundsurvey.org.uk/

CharisSIL doesn't load
by Martin Althoff 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

Using the typescript for CharisSIL as given doesn't work for me. "Modern" is substituted (as should be). It appears to load the mkiv file, but not the fonts, What am I doing wrong? Example below. (on Mac: MTXrun | current version: 2010.07.30 11:35, LuaTeX, Version beta-0.61.0-2010072816) -- I have adapted to the type-charissil.mkiv to fit the font names as reported on my system and set OSFONTDIR=/System/Library/Fonts;~/FontLib/opensource;/Library/Fonts;~/FontLib/context-use; mtxrun --script font --list --all --name --pattern=charis charissil charissil /Users/martin/FontLib/opensource/CharisSIL/CharisSILR.ttf charissilbold charissilbold /Users/martin/FontLib/opensource/CharisSIL/CharisSILB.ttf charissilbolditalic charissilbolditalic /Users/martin/FontLib/opensource/CharisSIL/CharisSILBI.ttf charissilitalic charissilitalic /Users/martin/FontLib/opensource/CharisSIL/CharisSILI.ttf charissilnormal charissilitalic /Users/martin/FontLib/opensource/CharisSIL/CharisSILI.ttf The output shows that the the mkiv file is certainly found: (/Users/martin/contextMini/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/third/typescripts/type-charissil.mkiv) It _will_ work perfectly fine, i.e. work-around, if I combine the type-charissil.tex and type-charissil.mkiv into a single file! See my working type-charissil.mkiv below. I also hide the .tex file!

Hi all, for some reason, hyphenation for ancient Greek isn't working in the latest current. test file: \usetypescript[type-gentium] \setupbodyfont[gentium,12pt] \starttext \hyphenatedword{allegorical} {\fr\hyphenatedword{détoxication}} {\agr\hyphenatedword{φιλοσοφούμενα}} \stoptext I looked at lang-grk.tex but couldn't find anything obvious, and according to the log file, all languages are loaded, mkiv lua stats : loaded patterns - agr:gr:31 en::2 fr::15 so I'm a bit puzzled.
