JS unicode mapping wrong again
by Reviczky, Adam 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

Hi Hans, The latest beta (2011-02-08) gives me again a wrong character using widgets and JavaScript. If I enter \'a I'll get now Æ instead of á. (Though copying that character shows "á" in a text editor, so I guess it's just some mapping that's wrong.) Do you need a minimal example? Adam

strange hang during compilation
by Jeong Dalyoung 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

Dear all, Today, I got a strange hault during the compilation. I had a file which consists of 13 chapters. It was compiled well before this afternoon when I change the textwidth and textheight. from (12cm, 21cm) to (11cm, 19cm). It works before it reaches somewhere chapter 1 and just stop and do nothing. I check chapters one by one and found that it has problems in ch 1 - ch4 but no problem from ch 5 - to end. I copied whole text in chapter 1 to a new document. but no use. I even checked disk and repair disk, but it is not helpful. The only thing I change is the pagelayout one line. I am using Mac OSX 10.6 and ConTeXt version is 2011.01.31. Here I just give main file to show the structure. Thank you.

new beta
by Hans Hagen 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

Hi, I uploaded a new beta: * logging is cleaned up and is now more under directive control (triggered by a request of taco for silent logging) and all messages now go through the same mechanisms (as quite some files were touched there can be typos) * as a consequence one can run context with the option --silent or --silent=struct*,graph* etc in order to get less logging; these map onto the directive logs.blocked * logging looks slightly different as i'm in the process of adding subcategories; on the agenda is language dependent logging (only for non tracing messages) * as a side effect (i just ran into the code) regimes have been adapted a bit and there's now also \startregime[...] .. \stopregime that support nesting (the enable and disable commands are global); modules are always loaded under utf8 * fontgoodies can have postprocessors (maybe the older enhancer mechanism will be done in a similar fashion, predates goodies) * for those who hadn't noticed, the label translations are now in lang-txt.lua so don't patch lang-*.mkiv files.

structuring Context code using \input statements.
by John Culleton 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

In all forms of TeX it is my custom to start with a brief main file and call the various components of the document into the input stream with \input statements. The termination of the document is in the main file with a \stoptext statement. This works well with pdftex documents and also with MKII documents. But it fails with MKIV documents. The Context program will read and use an inserted program but will not return to the main text stream in the file that did the inputting. It just displays an * and hangs. Are there new rules in MKIV about breaking up a document into separate files and inserting these in sequence via \input statements? -- John Culleton Create Book Covers with Scribus: http://www.booklocker.com/p/books/4055.html Typesetting and indexing http://wexfordpress.com book sales http://wexfordpress.net Free barcode: http://www.tux.org/~milgram/bookland/

(again) wrong page with \finishregisterentry
by Steffen Wolfrum 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

Hi, when \finishregisterentry is set within a paragraph then the "lastrealpage" gets the value from the page where this respective parapgraph starts. (In the example below it is 4 instead of 5.) That is quite sad when you have long paragraphs. How can I set a register range telling me lastrealpage is exactly the page where the ending mark is set? Attached you may find a minimal example. Best, Steffen ------- \starttext \switchtobodyfont[50pt] \input tufte \par \setregisterentry[index][label={Index_Label}]% Test\dorecurse{5}{This is are words, not paragraphs. }\finishregisterentry[index][label={Index_Label},entries={Index entry}] Test \stoptext

I have the same error now with the latest beta (2011-02-05) if there's a folder defined in OSFONTDIR that doesn't exist. Is there a particular reason why the isdir(path) check in globpattern from l-dir.lua was removed? If I add it back then there's no error. Adam

\tfx and \tf having the same size
by Tomas Bures 07 Feb '11

07 Feb '11

Hello, I have noticed that \tfx and \tf yield the same size. For example in the sample below: \tfxx A\tfx A\tf A\tfa A\tfb A\tfc A\tfd A However, the documentation states that tfx should be 0.8 size of tf. (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Font_Switching) Please, what did I get wrong? Thank you. Best regards, Tomas

Topic-list not becoming active
by Hans van der Meer 07 Feb '11

07 Feb '11

In the spirit of the presentationstyle s-pre-02 I meticulously copied the relevant statements into my module but the Topics-list is not becoming active. That is, the list of Topic-sheets appears but clicking on them does not bring one to the destination. Nor do the list items get the color given on the \setupinteraction macro. Of course I tried the same with the unmodified s-pre-02 style, but got the same negative result. Is here something changed from mkii->mkiv? Things like buttons for jumping to the next page or to a specific page are still working. It is as if the generated list of Topic's does not contain active items. I have prepared a small example. It shows on the second page uncolored Topic's ABC, PQR and XYZ. They should have been green (the OrnamentColor) and are not active. \usemodule[s-pre-02] \setuppapersize [S6][S6] \setupinteractionscreen[option=max,width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight] \starttext \TitlePage{ \vfill\vfill\bf College \vfill\vfill\vfill\bfxx \currentdate\hfill\null} \par \Topics {ONDERWERPEN} \par \Topic{ABC}abc\par \Topic{PQR}pcr\par \Topic{XYZ}xyz\par \stoptext Hans van der Meer

symb-was?
by Hans van der Meer 07 Feb '11

07 Feb '11

In mkii I used the module sym-was. In the current distribution there is the file: ./tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/symb-was.mkii but not a corresponding mkiv variant, as is the case for the other symb-files in that directory. Could it be this file is missing? Or are the wasy symbols now coming in other way? Hans van der Meer
