Can I simplify this to some sort of logic so it scales better?
by Gerben Wierda 06 Jun '22

I have this: \definemode[EN,FR,RU,PT][keep] \doifmodeelse{EN} { \disablemode[FR] \disablemode[RU] \disablemode[PT] } { \doifmodeelse{FR} { \disablemode[EN] \disablemode[RU] \disablemode[PT] } { \doifmodeelse{RU} { \disablemode[EN] \disablemode[FR] \disablemode[PT] } { \doifmodeelse{PT} { \disablemode[EN] \disablemode[FR] \disablemode[RU] } { \enablemode[EN] } } } } But for every language added this becomes more and more complex. I was wondering what would be a good approach to simplify it. I want to make sure that one and only one of these modes is active and that if no mode is entered on the command line the mode is EN.

Compiling context files in command line
by Jaroslav Hajtmar 04 Jun '22

04 Jun '22

Hello ConTeXist. After a long time, I turn to the conference for help. I use command line to batch process of many ConTeXt files. Is it possible at the end off compile proces to move the created PDF to another directory (subdirectory of current directory) using the command line commands? Somehow I can't do it or maybe I'm making a mistake somewhere. Renaming works but moving into subdirectory I can't do it for some reason. What could be the problem? Is it even possible do it? I work with OS X in bash. Simple example of my use: context —mode=mymode --result=subdir/mypdffilename.pdf processedfile.tex My nontrivial using (content of my bash file) context --purgeall --mode=THISSECTIONONLYHARD --arguments="o=_identifikacni_udaje,k=1,pk=1,ppk=1,t=,s=14" —result="pdfresult/svp_identifikacni_udaje.pdf" _identifikacni_udaje context --purgeall --mode=THISSECTIONONLYHARD --arguments="o=_charakteristika_skoly,k=2,pk=1,ppk=1,t=,s=15" --result="pdfresult/svp_charakteristika_skoly.pdf" _charakteristika_skoly context --purgeall --mode=THISSECTIONONLYHARD --arguments="o=_charakteristika_svp,k=3,pk=1,ppk=1,t=,s=19" --result="pdfresult/svp_charakteristika_svp.pdf" _charakteristika_svp context --purgeall --mode=THISSECTIONONLYHARD --arguments="o=_zacleneni_prurezovych_temat,k=3,pk=1,ppk=1,t=,s=30" --result="pdfresult/svp_zacleneni_prurezovych_temat.pdf" _zacleneni_prurezovych_temat context --purgeall --mode=THISSECTIONONLYHARD --arguments="o=_ucebni_plan,k=4,pk=1,ppk=1,t=,s=36" --result="pdfresult/svp_ucebni_plan.pdf" _ucebni_plan In fact, it is used to create separate PDF files from one large complex document, where individual chapters are cut out of the overall document in pdf form. This creates a large number of PDF files that I do not want to be placed in the current directory. Parameters are used to pass chapter numbers and page numbers to ConTeXt, to correct numbering in pdf files. Can you please advise? Thanx Jaroslav

The TLS certificate for www.pragma-ade.com appears to have expired on "Thu, 02 Jun 2022 07:37:56 GMT". Firefox and Chrome both give "Certificate expired" errors when I try and connect. I can still access the site, although I need to click through a few warnings first. -- Max

issue with scite module
by Pablo Rodriguez 04 Jun '22

04 Jun '22

Dear list, I have this minimal sample (with current latest from 2022.05.11 11:36 on Linux64): \usemodule[scite] \starttext \startXML ñ\stopXML \stoptext Commenting out the first line avoids compilation error. Replacing ñ with n also allows compilation. I think there may be an error in m-scite.mkiv. The inclusion of non-ASCII characters in XML code seems to leave an unclosed argument. Could anyone confirm the issue or explain me what I am missing? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

\sciteinlinebuffer inherits margin properties
by Pablo Rodriguez 04 Jun '22

04 Jun '22

Dear list, I have my third sample with scite: \usemodule[scite] \setuptyping[margin=yes] \starttext \startbuffer[b]b\stopbuffer \startTEXpage[offset=1em] a \sciteinlinebuffer[none][b] a\par a \typeinlinebuffer[b][option] a \stopTEXpage \stoptext I’m on Linux64 and using current latest from 2022.05.11 11:36. For some strange reason, \sciteinlinebuffer inherits the margin option from \setuptyping and it indents the whole paragraph. Could anyone confirm the issue? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

Dear list, I have the following sample (running current latest from 2022.05.11 11:36 on Linux64): \usemodule[scite] \starttext \startbuffer[b]b\stopbuffer \startTEXpage[offset=1em] a \sciteinlinebuffer[none][b] a\par a \typeinlinebuffer[b][option] a \stopTEXpage \stoptext I get an unwanted extra space after \sciteinlinebuffer. Am I missing something or have I hit a bug? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

issue with scite module
by Pablo Rodriguez 04 Jun '22

04 Jun '22

Dear list, I have the following sample: \usemodule[scite] \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=1ex] \type[option=xml]{<ans/>} \type[option=xml]{<áñß/>} \stopTEXpage \stoptext Using scite, I don’t get the second element right. Without scite, both elements are displayed right. In both Geany and Notepad++ (which use Scintilla internally), the two elements are displayed right. Could anyone confirm the issue? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

ugly bug
by Steffen Wolfrum 03 Jun '22

03 Jun '22

Hi, several times I got problems with my publishing house when they noticed that the headerlines jump up and down on pages that end/begin with qoutes (i.e. smaller interlineskip), see example below: on page 1 the blackrule is about 1mm higher than on page 2. In the past I then used really laborious workarounds to get these single pages in the correct way (without jumping)… manual pagebreak, re-define layout etc. But as the pages are hard to find it would be better that the layout would be reliable consistent. How can this be solved?
