\nocap does not work
by Marco 14 Apr '10

14 Apr '10

Hi, I wanted to wikify the command »\nocap« and tried it out. But it does seen to have any effect, see the example from the manual: \starttext \cap {People that have gathered their \cap {capital} at the cost of other people are not seldom \nocap {decapitated} in revolutionary times.} \stoptext The word »decapitated« ist also capitalized.

Re: [NTG-context] grid in footnotes, was: Re: footnote marks fail
by Michael Saunders 14 Apr '10

> i was not even aware that \newcommand was there ... probably more a catch for bibtex issues I have been using it a lot since, although Context seems to use a lot of brackets, it won't allow nested ones. For example, I have to use: \newcommand{\hfstyle}{\switchtobodyfont[15pt]} \setupheader[style=\hfstyle] because I'll get an error from: \setupheader[style=\switchtobodyfont[15pt]] Is there an easier way? > > \setupnote[footnote][location=columns,numbercommand=\fnmstyle,textcommand=\fntstyle,textstyle=\addff{su},align={normal,hanging},split=verystrict,interaction=yes] > > > > I don't know quite why it works, but it works---except for one little > > thing---there is a little vertical space between each footnote > (apparently because of the \switchtobodyfont[12pt]). > > > that will indeed define the interlinespace; also, the regular \high > command does some snapping while with the supp feature you're dependent > on what the fonts delivers as ht/dp of a glyph I don't see how could you possibly use \high{} for the footnote marks (\setupnote[footnote][?]). Besides, as I understand it, \high{} just rescales the body font---which always looks bad. So, I don't want to use \high{}. I use my numr feature which gives me exactly the right shape and height, but I have a little space between the footnotes. How do I eliminate the space? Maybe by setting a verytolerant grid for the footnotes? I don't know how.

grid in footnotes, was: Re: footnote marks fail

Peter M?nster wrote: > \setupfootnotes[numbercommand=, textcommand=, style=, textstyle=, > bodyfont=] Thanks, Peter. With some experimentation I got what I wanted. For the record, I'm using: \definefontfeature[su][body][sups=yes,ordn=yes]%superior \definefontfeature[nu][body][numr=yes]%numerator \definefontfeature[po][body][pnum=yes,onum=yes]%proportional old style \newcommand{\fnmstyle}{\addff{nu}\switchtobodyfont[12pt]} \newcommand{\fntstyle}{\addff{po}} \setupnote[footnote][location=columns,numbercommand=\fnmstyle,textcommand=\fntstyle,textstyle=\addff{su},align={normal,hanging},split=verystrict,interaction=yes] I don't know quite why it works, but it works---except for one little thing---there is a little vertical space between each footnote (apparently because of the \switchtobodyfont[12pt]). So I have one more question: is there a way to force the footnotes onto their own grid to prevent this? I am already using \setuplayout[...,grid=verytolerant], which I thought would take care of it.

I tried the following: \setupfootnotes[textcommand=,numbercommand=,style=,bodyfont=] \starttext text1\footnote{1footnote} \stoptext and it almost works. The third and fourth '1' look the same, but the first and second '1' (those in the text) are different. The second is on the baseline, but it has been scaled much smaller than the first. I want to turn off even this scaling. My eventual plan is to use my sups for this (they seem to work fine for me), but for now I'd be content to turn the automatic scaling off. By the way, of these four keys (textcommand, numbercommand, style, bodyfont), it's not at all clear to me what each is supposed to control.

Sebastien Mengin: > Sorry, a bit off topic, but: is \setupfootnotes[] a synonym for > \setupnote[footnote][] ? Besides \setupfootnotes[] and \setupnote[footnote][] there are: \setupenumerations[footnote][] and \setupfootnotedefinition[] and maybe more. I have no idea how they are related or even how to find out the difference.

Internet archive integration into bibliography
by Matija Šuklje 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

Hullo, lately I got an great idea(TM) concerning citing internet sources. \\ Initial problem: the internet is ever changing, what says on a page today, might not be there tomorrow and in ten years' time the page might not exist at all. \\ Solution so far: just smack the date (and time) next to the link. I've seen that often and my faculty expects this from me as well. \\ Problem with the solution so far: it doesn't solve anything really. \\ Solution(TM): along with the URL and date, add the Internet Archive's link from that time next to it as well. The ‘Solution(TM)’ is a bit tedious though, so it'd be great if ConTeXt could automate this process a bit. What I'm thinking is, if ConTeXt could take the URL and date stored in the bibliography (.bbl) and combine it together to form a URL of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine to point to that particular page at that particular time. In the document's bibliography then it could be rendered something like this: Wikipedia: ConTeXt; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt; as seen on the day: 12th of April 2010 at 13:45 With "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt" being a hyperlink to just that and "12th of April 2010" being a hyperlink to http://web.archive.org/web/20100412134500/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt Note: using any date and time works OK with the archive.org, since if the date doesn't exist in its database, it falls back to the last archived site before the date requested. What do you think? Would this make sense? If so, should we enable it by default? Cheers, Matija -- gsm: +386 41 849 552 www: http://matija.suklje.name xmpp: matija.suklje(a)gabbler.org

Custom verb-c inside my working directory
by Nicola 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

Hi, in MKII the following code produces the wrong result ('* x;') \usemodule[verb-c] \starttext \startC int* x; \stopC \stoptext I know that I should use \definetyping[C][option=C] instead of \usemodule. The fact is, what I am actually loading is a customized verb-c file that I've put inside my working directory (and I have also renamed). How to reconcile the use of \definetyping with a local file?
