Too much spacing in math mode between 'f' and 'l' (MkIV only)
by Vedran Miletić 08 May '11

08 May '11

Hi, please consider this: \starttext \math{flow_1} \stoptext When compiled with MkIV, space between "f" and "l" is quite big and doesn't look very good. Is it a bug? Regards, Vedran Miletić

header for indented text / blockquote
by R. Ermers 07 May '11

07 May '11

Dear All, In my docbook xml document I have fragments that I want to typeset indented. For this I use the tag <blockquote> which I map to startnarrower and stopnarrower. Some blockquotes in my document have a header: <blockquote> <title>How a cow catches a rabbit</title> <para>Text Text</para> </blockquote> I was wondering if the header could be setup just like sections and section headers in the following way: \startnarrower[title={title}, reference=reference] .... \stopnarrower Perhaps I need to create a new environment (blockquote) with these qualities? The title and the reference to the section (and subsections) can now easily be matched to lpath variables (much easier than when \section in fact refers to the section title). Another question related to this is how to can typeset the text of the blockquote in two columns, while its header is typeset over the full page. Kind regards, Robert

Latest beta not working.

If I run "context" with no arguments, I get the following output (and nothing else): mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' The file, mtx-context.lua does exis: /home/bwise/context/20110505-beta-extras/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua If I do an strace, it's looking for the following: 26155 open("./context.lua", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 26155 open("/home/bwise/context/20110505-beta-extras/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtx-context.lua", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 26155 stat("mtx-context.lua", 0x7fffcf962660) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 26155 stat("mtx-context.lua", 0x7fffcf962660) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 26155 open("/home/bwise/context/20110505-beta-extras/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtx-context.lua", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 26155 stat("context.lua", 0x7fffcf962660) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 26155 stat("context.lua", 0x7fffcf962660) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) So it's looking for the mtx-context.lua file in the path: tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtx-context.lua And it's really located in the path: tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua Am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Bart

Proposed changes for Croatian language
by Vedran Miletić 06 May '11

06 May '11

Hi, according to [1], Croatian language has no em-dash. Could lang-def.mkiv (lines 240-243) be fixed to be: \c!leftsentence={\hbox{--~}}, \c!rightsentence={\hbox{~--}}, \c!leftsubsentence={--}, \c!rightsubsentence={--}, also, from my understanding, month names are only used for generating correct \date[...=...] output. If that's the case, they should be in Genitive case, as follows: january = siječnja february = veljače march = ožujka april = travnja may = svibnja june = lipnja july = srpnja august = kolovoza september = rujna october = listopada november = studenog december = prosinca If it would be easier, I can send fixed lang-txt.lua. Thanks, Vedran Miletić [1] http://hr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crtica_%28pravopis%29

Error with export=yes
by Aditya Mahajan 06 May '11

06 May '11

Hi, The following gives an error: \setupbackend[export=yes] \starttext test \stoptext ! LuaTeX error ...minimals/texmf-context/tex/context/base/util-prs.lua:125: bad argument #2 to 'lpegmatch' (string expected, got boolean). system > tex > error on line 0 in file : LuaTeX error ... <empty file> <*> ./test ? Any ideas on how to fix this? Also, I looked at back-exp.mkiv and it appears that xhtml export is possible. If so, what is the command to enable it. (I am guessing \setupexport[export=yes, xhtml=yes] but cannot test it due to the above error). Aditya

arabic in xml
by R. Ermers 06 May '11

06 May '11

Dear All, I am working on a docbook file that includes fragments in Arabic, e.g.: <foreignphrase lang="ar">أشهد الا اله الا الله و ان محمدا رسول الله</foreignphrase> These can be found by means of the lpath code: \xmlsetsetup{#1}{foreignphrase[@lang='ar']}{xml:foreignphrase:arabic} Now I am not sure how to typeset them, I tried different methods: \startxmlsetups xml:foreignphrase:arabic %\setupdirections[bidi=local] \setarabic \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups Can anybody help me out here? Regards, Robert

Problem with arrows in latest mkiv (again)
by Otared Kavian 05 May '11

05 May '11

Hi Hans, I am sending again a message sent some two weeks ago, but probably it was lost… It seems that the latest beta (version 2011.05.01 12:50) has a problem with arrow in math mode, using Latin modern, while with Palatino the arrows are correct. Here is a minimal example and its PDF result (please look at the \longrightarrow in the PDF): \starttext Let $E,F$ be two Banach spaces and consider a linear operator $L : E \longrightarrow F$. \stoptext Best regards: OK
