Context minimals on linux armhf
by Lutz Haseloff 16 Dec '17

16 Dec '17

Hi all, since some days, everytime I want to run first-setup.sh I get following error message. @ERROR: chroot failed rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1653) [Receiver=3.1.1] Is there something wrong with the rsync server? Greetings Lutz -- GPG Key ID 3C4F83BC

Header after a chapter title
by Alexey Kryukov 16 Dec '17

16 Dec '17

Dear list, sorry for probably a stupid question. The problem looks obvious, but I could not find a solution by googling the list archive. Suppose I want to have a chapter head on a separate page. The chapter includes some sections, each starting from its own page too (so I don't want a header on the pages where a section starts). The following example is simplified (I actually have a 'command' option for chapters): \setuphead[chapter][ after={\page[empty,odd]}, page=odd, header=empty, ] \setuphead[section][ page=yes, header=empty, ] \starttext \startbodymatter \chapter{My Chapter} \section{My First Section} \input{knuth} \section{My Second Section} \input{knuth} \stopbodymatter \stoptext Now you can see that the "header=empty" setting is ignored for the first section (one immediately following the chapter head). So, how can I get rid of the header in this case? -- Regards, Alexey Kryukov <anagnost at yandex dot ru> Moscow State University Faculty of History

Latex has a \llistfigures command. Does context have an equivalent command? John Culleton

Problem with vocalised hebrew
by Lutz Haseloff 16 Dec '17

16 Dec '17

Hi all, i would like to typeset hebrew with context. My not fully working example: \starttext \definedfont[name:narkisim at 20pt] \setupalign[r2l] טְרוֹפוֹתִי \stoptext In the resulting pdf the vocalisations are on the left side of the glyph, instead of being centered. I append the result of context and the result of Libreoffice. Is there a way to typeset vocalised hebrew with context or am I doing something wrong? Greetings Lutz -- GPG Key ID 3C4F83BC

Small caps and bold
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. 14 Dec '17

14 Dec '17

Hello, I'm trying to typeset some text in bold + smallcaps. But even the sample on wiki: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bold_small_caps extended to: ---- \starttext \setff{smallcaps} Normal and \bf bold Small Caps. {\sc Normal and \bf bold Small Caps.} \stoptext ---- doesn't produce bold small caps - see the attached files. So - how to get bold small caps? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

\cite not working with notes in xtables
by Michael Eidenbenz 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hello List, I have this MWE that reflects my current layout where I have images in an xtable with captions defined as note. Both, footnotes and captions are set in the margin. The Example compiles correct with just one caption in a xcell. If there are two (as in the MWE) the \cite command doesnt work. Could this be a conflict on the lua side of xtables/publication framework? The second problem of course are the footnotes that are not placed on the correct side. I thought \automigrateinserts would help here. But it doesnt. Any hints how to solve this?

\setuplist with numbercommand renders wrongly

11 Dec '17

I don’t know if I use it wrongly, or it’s a bug in ConTeXt, but use \setuplist with numbercommand renders wrongly % this is not working, ``chapter’’ and chapter name overlapped \define[2]\ChapterNumber{chapter #1: #2} % have to add extra spaces here to avoid overlapping % \define[2]\ChapterNumber{chapter #1:\space\space\space\space\space\space #2} \setuplist[section][numbercommand=\ChapterNumber] \starttext \completecontent \section{blabla} blabla \section{blabla} blabla \section{blabla} blabla \stoptext I use ConTeXt standalone with Mac OS X mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.02 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: /Volumes/DATA/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2017.12.04 16:37

Dear list, excuse my stupid question, but I don’t know how to join with an or these lpaths: {header} {[@id='header']} {header|*[@id='header']} doesn’t work. Which is the right way to do it with a single lpath? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
