Hyphenation for Indonesian language
by Muhammad Rizqi Siregar 29 Dec '23

29 Dec '23

Hello, I'd like to ask if ConTeXt LMTX has hyphenation for Indonesian language or a way to enable it. I think Babel package in LaTeX has some pattern files for the language, although I am not sure whether they can be borrowed to work with ConTeXt or not. Appreciate any help on this. Thanks. Best regards, Muhammad

How to implement word corrections
by Jairo A. del Rio 28 Dec '23

28 Dec '23

Hi, list! I'm writing a small module to print word corrections, e.g., things like "irregardless" > "regardless"or "alverja" > "arveja" ('pea' in Spanish) with overstrikes and underlines, but I want feedback to make a module in the ConTeXt fashion. I hope the PDF attached explains better what I mean. Just in case, I want to know if anyone else in the mailing list is acquainted with grammar and orthography quizzes/exercises/exams in ConTeXt. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Best regards, Jairo

\setupsynonyms textstyle=cap failing
by Garulfo 24 Dec '23

24 Dec '23

Hi all, the following minimum working example is properly typesetted with textstyle=bold, but it fails with textstyle=cap (ConTeXt version : 2023.09.26 18:19) A number should have been here; I inserted '0'. (If you can't figure out why I needed to see a number, look up 'weird error' in the index to The TeXbook.) mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1 It works on https://context-on-web.eu (ConTeXt version : 2022.12.22 22:17) \definesynonyms [abbreviation] [abbreviations] [\AbbreviationsFull] \setupsynonyms [abbreviation] [textstyle=bold] \starttext \contextversion \abbreviation{NTG}{Nederlandstalige TeX Gebruikersgroep} Test 1 : \NTG .

underbrace label across two lines
by Dean Hung 20 Dec '23

20 Dec '23

Hi list, Following on from Aditya's solution to my previous question, I have run into a separate issue and would appreciate any assistance. Sometimes text under the underbrace can become quite long, and should be split into two (or more) lines. In the example below, "firstline" should be the top line of the underbrace label, and "secondline" should be on the lower line of the underbrace label, but as it stands, both are printed on the same line. \underbrace[mindepth=0.5cm]{\tf x+y+z}_{\vrule width 0pt height 0.5cm\relax\text{firstline secondline}} I have tried using \\ and \crlf, but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Dean

install-modules script and git URLs
by Pablo Rodriguez 20 Dec '23

20 Dec '23

Hi Hraban and Taco, the install-modules script doesn’t allow .tar.gz as compression format to install modules. .tar.gz seems to be the compression format offered for modules that are uploaded using a git URL. Hraban explained in August that thee server could be configured to get .zip compression for modules in git checkout. Sorry, I know that you are both very busy, but could it be this issue fixed? Using git to upload module versions is way more easy than uploading .zip files. Many thanks for your help to both, Pablo
