Seeindex with zie instead of see?

Hi ConTeXt users, Wondering whether there is a possibility to modify the word 'see' into the Dutch word 'zie' in the use of the \seeindex command? Regards, Gerard

Two bugs with descriptions in ConTeXt.
by SirColeman 13 Feb '24

13 Feb '24

The first bug is that descriptions interfere with the counters, resulting in the peculiar behavior demonstrated in the resulting PDF. Unless I'm mistaken, I think it happens because the head of the description is evaluated twice, thus incrementing the counter twice---at least, that's the only explanation for how the number is incremented by 2 each time. Further, this issue seems to persist whether we're using macros or writing \incrementcounter directly. The solution is to either make sure that the head of descriptions is evaluated only once, or document that text placed as the head of descriptions is meant to be evaluated twice, if there's a good reason for doing so. Of course, this silly example of incrementing counters can be subdued by placing the \incrementcounter directly in the after option when customizing descriptions. But it demonstrates the issue. I've tried to make the examples given be as varied as possible, demonstrating the different ways in which descriptions interact with the counter. The second bug is that descriptions, or at least that's my intuitive expectation, shouldn't interfere with the bullets of items. I expect that the bullet stays where it is, and the description is placed next to it. But what happens is that the bullet is shifted to the right, making it overlap with the description's head, which isn't pretty. ConTeXt version 2024.1.24

Context lmtx for 32bit under LUBUNTU 18.04
by Alain Delmotte 13 Feb '24

13 Feb '24

Hi, A month or so ago Hans provided a new upload (thanks I managed to get and install it on my Windows 10 64b). At that time I was struggling for having my computers back in order (that appends sometimes). Now I'd like to have LMTX on an old but still used (when travelling) portable under lubuntu 18.04 32Bits. There is no more executable available on pragma and I am using Context from TeX Live, but it is the 2017 version. I can do with it, but it would be better to have Context lmtx latest. Is it possible to have it? But if this a too complicate problem, I'll stand with the TeX Live Context. Thanks for the system anyway. Regards, Alain Delmotte Montpellier, France

removing whitespace
by Michael Guravage 13 Feb '24

13 Feb '24

In the example below I pass the macro a string with a space, but the space should not appear in the url. I've tried using \ctxlua to invoke string substitution, but without success. What is the proper way to remove this space, and to perform string manipulation more generally? \setupinteraction[state=start] \def\squeeze#1% {\goto{#1}[url(tel:#1)]} \starttext Call \squeeze{01234 56789} \stoptext -- With kind regards, Michael
