TeXlive 2012 (testing again)
by Marco Pessotto 11 Jun '12

11 Jun '12

Hello there. I can't get (again) the fonts installed in the texmf-local directory in the TeXlive 2012 pretest. It's quite possible I'm doing something wrong (but I recall that putting the files under texmf-local/fonts/data was enough to get them imported). Setup: find texmf-local/fonts/data/ -type f -exec md5sum {} \; 25e5b8b98c516abdf0d2815067d691d6 texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-I.ttf 61c9cd7d9ffd2e149ad586945b135e55 texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-BI.ttf 76c44f99f6209ecea79724429dbcba3e texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-B.ttf d39f8f29432ac164dae8bb1dfd5eeb3b texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/Andika-R.ttf 20becdd98504161dc918be59c47e2268 texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-R.ttf 79d2b1fe536079a3c69069f7961e8436 texmf-local/fonts/data/leaguegothic/League_Gothic.otf The configuration is the same that an older (texlive-pretest) installation one: pwd /media/data/melmoth/tex-live-hacking/tl2012-june [18:28] melmoth@universe:/media/data/melmoth/tex-live-hacking/tl2012-june$ find texmf-local/fonts/data/ -type f -exec md5sum {} \; | (cd ../install-dir/ && md5sum -c -) texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-I.ttf: OK texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-BI.ttf: OK texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-B.ttf: OK texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/Andika-R.ttf: OK texmf-local/fonts/data/charis/CharisSIL-R.ttf: OK texmf-local/fonts/data/leaguegothic/League_Gothic.otf: OK Minimal example: \setupbodyfont[charissil,11pt] \definefont[AuxFont][file:League_Gothic sa *] \starttext test test test {\AuxFont hello} \stoptext mtxrun --script fonts --reload [...] /media/data/melmoth/tex-live-hacking/tl2012-june/texmf-local for ttf files fonts | names | 4 entries found, 0 ttf files checked, 0 okay fonts | names | scanning [...] mtxrun --script fonts --list --method=file --all | grep -i char => empty This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.70.2-2012052323 (TeX Live 2012) mtx-context | current version: 2012.05.30 11:26 The same mtxrun produced: fonts | names | scanning /media/data/melmoth/tex-live-hacking/install-dir/texmf-local for ttf files fonts | names | 18 entries found, 10 ttf files checked, 10 okay mtx-context | current version: 2012.05.29 00:12 This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.70.2-2012052323 (TeX Live 2012) Best wishes. -- Marco

current
by Hans Hagen 11 Jun '12

Hi, Today I'd like to promote the beta to current (unless we have a real showstopper that cannot wait for the usual betas). So, it might be a good moment to snapshot your current if you depend on it.

I will try to implement it, but might need until Sunday. - I've added some keys to \setupexport: author title subtitle firstpage (also new key in mult) lastpage (aso new key in mult) - The title, subtitle and author inherit from \setupinteraction which already inherits from \setupdocument (metadata namespace). - In mtx-epub these variables are picked up (from the epub job specification) and firstpage / lastpage are added to the images list. Nothing has been checked and the firstpage/lastpage image names have to be pushed into some epub metadata blob I guess but that's for you to figure out in mtx-epub. It's probably best to assume that the images are present and suitable for epub.

Page break before sections
by Aditya Mahajan 10 Jun '12

10 Jun '12

Hi, I don't get a page break before sections if I use \setuphead[...][page=yes]. Has the syntax of the command changed? (I am using 2012.06.08) \setuphead[chapter][page=yes] \setuphead[section][page=yes] \starttext \chapter{One} \input ward \section{Two} \input knuth \chapter{One} \input ward \section{Two} \input knuth \stoptext Aditya

What are some of the tools available for English spelling checkers or filters for existing software such as aspell (aspell's context filter is not a ConTeX filter). What are people using for which platform? Thanks

Re: [NTG-context] LuaLaTeX + fontspec: cannot compare documents with Acrobat

Hans' MWE is not comparable, but Aditya's example (with \setupbodyfont[palatino]) compares just fine! -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Hans Hagen [mailto:pragma@wxs.nl] Gesendet: Freitag, 8.

This is a easier test: \nopdfcompression \setupbodyfont[dejavu] \startTEXpage[offset=10pt] a % a \stopTEXpage Even such a minimal document cannot be compared. I have no clue how the compare is supposed to work but if a simple 'a' vs 'aa' document does not work while the files preflight ok it's probably an acrobat issue.

feature request for \getspr{}
by Peter Münster 09 Jun '12

09 Jun '12

Hi, It would be nice, if \getspr{} of the m-spreadsheet module could print a comma instead of a dot as decimal-point. For now, I use this workaround: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- function spreadsheets.get(name,r,c,str) if name == "" then name = current if name == "" then name = "default" end end if not str or str == "" then context(data[name][c][r] or 0) else local result = execute(name,r,c,str) if result then if type(result) == "number" then data[name][c][r] = result end if userdata and userdata.spreadsheet_use_comma then result = tostring(result) result = result:gsub("%.", ",") end context(result) end end end --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- -- Peter

frame and numbering of code snippets using vim-module
by Xenia 09 Jun '12

09 Jun '12

Hi context folks, using the vim module for including MATLAB-code, I noticed some annoying behavior: The frame, that I produced with your help using `\definetextbackground`, is not wide enough for the text inside, or rather the line wraps are done too late (see the attached examples!). Additionally the frame has a bottom line at the end of the page although the code snippet did not end yet. It looks as if a new box begins. Besides there should not be a new line number after a line break. Any ideas what to do? Thanks, Xenia

first-setup.sh
by Andy Thomas 08 Jun '12

08 Jun '12

Hi all, after a lot of confusion I discovered that first-setup.sh is not Andy-proof. If there is a broken internet connection, the update lua process works and pushes the rsync error message very quickly out of the terminal. I propose to change the rsync line to rsync -rlptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/$platform/bin . || { echo "Cannot reach the repository"; exit 1; } Andy P.S. Someone already did the same to the ruby error message, it is copied a second time at the end.
