Thank you for answering. I have had looked into this source before and tried exactly the same approach you descrived but I am on TeXlive 2019 where this is defined differently: \unexpanded\def\registerpagerange#1#2#3#4#5#6#7#8% #1:class #2:processor content, content todo: -- configurable {\pushcurrentregister{#1}% \edef\p_pagenumber{\registerparameter\c!pagenumber}% \ifx\p_pagenumber\v!no\else \registerpageseparator \global\setconstant\c_strc_registers_page_state\plusone \dostarttagged\t!registerpagerange\empty \dostarttagged\t!registerfrompage\empty \withregisterpagecommand{#2}{#3}{#4}{#5}% \dostoptagged \registeronepagerangeseparator \dostarttagged\t!registertopage\empty \withregisterpagecommand{#2}{#6}{#7}{#8}% \dostoptagged \dostoptagged \fi \popcurrentregister} and, most importantly, does not work with this approach: \unexpanded\def\registerpagerange#1#2#3#4#5#6#7#8% #1:class #2:processor content, content todo: -- configurable { \pushcurrentregister{#1}% \edef\p_pagenumber{\registerparameter\c!pagenumber}% \ifx\p_pagenumber\v!no\else \registerpageseparator \global\setconstant\c_strc_registers_page_state\plusone \dostarttagged\t!registerpagerange\empty \dostarttagged\t!registerfrompage\empty \withregisterpagecommand{#2}{#3}{#4}{#5}% \dostoptagged \ifnum#3=\numexpr#6-1\relax f.% \else \registeronepagerangeseparator \dostarttagged\t!registertopage\empty \withregisterpagecommand{#2}{#6}{#7}{#8}% \fi \dostoptagged \dostoptagged \fi \popcurrentregister} May it be that parameters have changed since then?

ConTeXt version stuck at 2020.01.30
by Marco Patzer 05 May '20

05 May '20

Hi! Has something changed regarding the installation/update procedure? ConTeXt seems to be stuck at 2020.01.30 and downloading the newest version results in that very version. Steps to reproduce: rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . sh ./first-setup.sh . tex/setuptex context --version → current version: 2020.01.30 14:13 According to https://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/context/ the directory “latest” seems to contain the latest version, rather than the “beta”. first-setup.sh however uses the “beta” directory. Has something changed and first-setup.sh hasn't been updated to reflect that change? Or is something else going on? Adapting first-setup.sh to mirror from the “latest” directory seems to fetch the latest version: rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . sed -s '/\/bin\/mtxrun/s/--context=beta/--context=latest/' first-setup.sh sh ./first-setup.sh . tex/setuptex context --version → current version: 2020.04.30 11:10 Marco

Definition of \registerpagerange
by Hynek, Stefan 05 May '20

05 May '20

Hello fellow ConTeXies, since April 2019 it is possible to use \setupregister with compress=text which is a fine addition and has its use cases. Unfortunately, I am confronted with the demand to style the registers with 'f.' for a following single page and else with page ranges. Since the Definition of \registerpagerange is not well documented I don't know which parameter to check for the conditional statement when rewriting it. Could you please give me a hint? In ConTeXt that shipped with TeXlive 2015 it worked that way: \unexpanded\def\registerpagerange#1#2#3#4#5#6#7% {\registerpageseparator \global\setconstant\c_strc_registers_page_state\plusone \dostarttagged\t!registerpagerange\empty \dostarttagged\t!registerfrompage\empty \withregisterpagecommand{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}% \dostoptagged \ifnum\the\numexpr#6-#3\relax=1 f.% \else \registeronepagerangeseparator \dostarttagged\t!registertopage\empty \withregisterpagecommand{#1}{#5}{#6}{#7}% \dostoptagged \fi \dostoptagged} With best regards Stefan

Shift tabulate into margin and center
by Tim Steenvoorden 05 May '20

05 May '20

Hi all, I’ve a page layout with a broad left margin. I’d like to create frames in the text which utilize the margin and the typearea with centered contents. I managed to do this with the following code, but I wonder if there is an easier and more elegant way to do this in ConTeXt, especially the centering of the tabulation. Cheers, Tim \startproduct test-tabulate \setuppapersize[B5] \setuplayout [backspace=13pc, leftmargin=8pc, leftmargindistance=1pc, width=24.5pc, rightmargin=0pc, %% topspace=4pc, header=0pc, height=49pc, footer=0pc, bottomdistance=2.5pc, bottom=1pc, location=middle] \define\fullwidth{\dimexpr(\leftmargindistance+\leftmarginwidth+\textwidth)} \section{First} \subsection{First first} \input tufte \setupnarrower[left=-9pc] \startnarrower[left] \startframedtext[frame=off,topframe=on,bottomframe=on,align=middle,width=\fullwidth] The whole frame should be shifted to the left. As the text, this table should centered in the box. \placefigure[none,force]{} \starttabulate[|l|r|] \NC 0 \NC 1 \NR \NC 2 \NC 3 \NR \NC 4 \NC 5 \NR \NC 6 \NC 7 \NR \NC 8 \NC 9 \NR \stoptabulate \startformula E=mc^2 \stopformula \stopframedtext \stopnarrower \input tufte \stopproduct

Re: [NTG-context] Vertical lines in matrices
by Jeong Dal 04 May '20

04 May '20

Dear Weber Mattias, Please see page 10 of “mathalign.pdf” made by Aditya. He showed the way of writing aligned math including matrices. For example, \startformula \startmatrix[left={\left(\,},right={\,\right)}] \NC 1 \NC 0 \NC 0 \NR \NC 0 \NC 1 \NC 0 \NR \NC 0 \NC 0 \NC 1 \NR \stopmatrix \stopformula There are many other examples that you can use.

How do I add cyrillic to my typescript/document?
by Gerben Wierda 04 May '20

04 May '20

I am looking for a way to amend a typescript for the additional use of cyrillic characters. I currently use: \starttypescript [sans] [optima] \setups[font:fallback:sans] \definefontsynonym [Sans] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Regular)] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansBold] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Bold)] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Italic)] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic] [file:Optima.ttc(Optima Bold Italic)] [features=default] \stoptypescript \definetypeface [optima] [ss] [sans] [optima] [default] \definetypeface [optima] [rm] [serif] [optima] [default] \definetypeface [optima] [tt] [mono] [modern] [default] \definetypeface [optima] [mm] [math] [pagella] [default] \setupbodyfont [optima] But Optima doesn’t have cyrillic characters. So, either I have te use another typescript. I tried creating a Helvetica (as Helvetica.ttc on macOS seems to have cyrillic characters) but did not succeed. I also tried \language[ru] without any \setupbodyfont hoping it would also fix the font issue but keep getting fonts > checking > char –® (U+00428) in font 'LMRoman10-Regular' with id 8: missing I read the languages-mkiv document but it did not say what I had to do about fonts. What do I have to do to get both English and Russian in my document in terms of fonts? G

Changing the font size in an environment changes the behavior of a macro

Hi, This macro was written by Otared and it works well unless I change the size of the font (see the second graph). How to correct this problem ? Thanks for your help.

Three-deep itemize fails on LMTX
by Rik Kabel 04 May '20

04 May '20

List, The following example works with MkIV latest, but fails with LMTX latest (Win10 x64). The complaint is ! Missing math style, treated as \displaystyle. \starttext \startitemize \item Level 1 first \startitemize \item Level 2 first \startitemize \item Level 3 first \stopitemize \stopitemize \stopitemize \stoptext The culprit is the third level of itemize -- without that it is clean on both engines. I would appreciate knowing if other folks have the same problem, and if so, if there is a workaround until a fix can be posted. -- Rik

Placing number in \sqrt
by context＠vivaldi.net 04 May '20

04 May '20

Hello, compare placing "3" in the following examples: ---- \starttext $\sqrt[3]{5}$ % (1) \par $\sqrt[3~]{5}$ % (2) \stoptext ---- In the first case, the "3" is placed naturally by ConTeXt and placed more in the centre of "V" part of the square sign. In the second example, the "3" is shifted manually by adding "~" and the final placement seems to me a bit better. What is your opinion - is the case (1) OK/intended and user should avoid any manual shifting? Or manual shifting is OK? Or is there a way to affect this placement globally in ConTeXt, e.g. setting an internal variable? Best regards, Lukas

--silent and so on
by Thierry Horsin 04 May '20

04 May '20

Hi everybody I am a current context user since now many years and in particular I use it with automatic compilation with a bash script detecting any modifications of the .tex file. In order for this to work I used with previous versions the --nonstopmode --batchmode --silent --noconsole options With these options when an error occured the previous pdf produced was not changed. Now with the last version appears a single page pdf file with ERROR written on it. Is there a way to have something similar as before ? Any ideas. Thanks
