LMTX and my custom typescripts
by Michael Guravage 28 May '21

28 May '21

Yesterday I installed a new LMTX instance *ex nihilo*. Unfortunately, the new instance will not load my typescripts. My several commercial fonts and the typescripts I wrote for them reside in the texmf-project tree, along with a style file that loads them. I load the style file in my source files with the \environment command. The files in texmf-project are properly indexed. I know this, because the style file's name appears in the log, because I can list the fonts with mtxrun --script fonts --list --files --all --pattern=Dolly*, and because he style file evokes \showframe and \showgrid; the result of which I see in the typeset results. Regardless of whether a typescript files, e.g. type-DollyPro.tex, is in the texmf-tree or in the same directory as the ConTeXt source file, evoking \usetypescriptfile[type-DollyPro] fails. The log says: fonts > typescripts > unknown library 'DollyPro' fonts > typescripts > unknown library 'DollyPro' However, including the typescripts in the ConTeXt source file succeeds; which would seem to imply that my typescript definitions are correct. Using an old instance: LMTX LuaTeX 2.03 20191227 + ConTeXt MkIV 2019.12.27 19:26, loading the typescript via the style file works as expected. I regret that my mwe remains academic, since you need the Dolly font to run it. Any encouragement in how to resolve this would be much appreciated. Cheers, Michael

--luatex option failing
by jbf 28 May '21

28 May '21

Hi list, Not at all sure why this is happening. In my most recent install of lmtx (which works fine as lmtx) on Linux, I wanted to choose the --luatex option just to make a comparison between the mkiv output and lmtx. The redirection part seems to work (... --script mtx-context --luatex myfile.tex --redirected), but no 'resolvers' follow. Instead I get mtxrun | unknown script 'mtx-context.lua' or 'mtx-mtx-context.lua'. I have tried both luatextools --generate and mtxrun --generate, but neither of these fix the problem. Would someone know why this is not working? Or even better, how to fix it? I installed lmtx on another machine and have no problems using the --luatex option there, so the matter is not urgent for me, just puzzling! I do have a separate mkiv installation as well, but my understanding is that they would not conflict. LMTX contains everything that is needed. Julian

wrong link rectagle in LMTX
by Pablo Rodriguez 28 May '21

28 May '21

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setuppapersize[A9] \setupinteraction[state=start] \enabledirectives[references.border] \unexpanded\def\MyURL#1% {\bgroup\goto{{\tt\hyphenatedurl{#1}}}[url(#1)]\egroup} \starttext \startitemize \dorecurse{2}{\item \MyURL{a.b\\/c.d\letterhash e}} \stopitemize \stoptext I get an unindented link rectangle with LMTX (2021.05.27 14:15). Using --luatex, the link rectangle is perfectly fine. Could anyone confirm the issue? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

setupindentations
by Hans van der Meer 28 May '21

This macro \setupindentations is mentioned in my ConText the manual from november 12, 2001. It seems to have disappeared. Is that so? Then why? What replacement? dr. Hans van der Meer

t-vim module: no highlighting for custom filetypes
by Nicola 28 May '21

28 May '21

For some reason, the vim module has stopped highlighting code associated to custom filetypes (it still works for built-in filetypes). For instance, typeset this: \usemodule[vim] \startvimrc[name=foo] set nocompatible set runtimepath+=~/foo/ \stopvimrc \definevimtyping[foo][ style={\switchtobodyfont[16pt,tt]}, directory=code/, syntax=foo, alternative=pscolor, vimrc=foo, ] \starttext \startfoo let while endwhile \stopfoo \stoptext The ~/foo/ directory contains ftdetect/foo.vim: au BufRead,BufNewFile *.foo setfiletype foo and syntax/foo.vim: if exists("b:current_syntax") finish endif syn case match syn iskeyword @,48-57,192-255,_ syn keyword fooKeyword let while endwhile hi def link fooKeyword Keyword let b:current_syntax = "foo" If I change `syntax=foo` to, say, `syntax=vim` in \definevimtyping then the code is highlighted. So, I suspect that I am not configuring the runtimepath correctly. Any idea how to fix this? I am using the latest LMTX to which I have added modules as explained here: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules#ConTeXt_LMTX t-vim VERSION reads 2021.03.01. Nicola

no leavevmode
by Hans van der Meer 28 May '21

28 May '21

Why is there not implemented in \subsection a \leavevmode at the end of it? Here a minimal example showing that starting with the first word in an \hbox encounters vertical mode. Thus requiring a \leavevmode to put it on line with the following text. Whereas not starting with an \hbox does an implicite switch to horizontal mode. I can imagine that this behaviour could be confusing for users not well versed in the different behaviour of the horizontal and vertical modes. Therefore my question: Wouldn't it be wise to implement that \leavevmode? \startsubsection[title=TEST] \hbox{abc} def\crlf ghi jkl xyz \stopsubsection dr. Hans van der Meer

mathcolor attribute in MathML (mkiv)
by Duncan Hothersall 27 May '21

27 May '21

Hello list. I'm trying to use colour in some MathML formulae using the mathcolor attribute. It seems to have no effect on the output. I can see \applymmlmathcolor in the x-mathml.mkiv source but I can't see how to make it work. Does anyone have any pointers? (Does lmtx support this?) Thanks. Duncan

Hi. Is it still necessary to use setupitaliccorrection if we have switched to LMTX?
