The first [...] in the \startregister command is the name of the register itself, then there is a second one for the sort key/range identifier. So you want: \startregister[index][Menippean]{Menippean} \stopregister[index][Menippean] and then you can have \startregister[index][Menippean1]{Menippean} \stopregister[index][Menippean1] as well. Hope that helps. Duncan

register ranges
by Thomas A. Schmitz 23 Feb '06

23 Feb '06

Hi all, I must be obtuse, but I can't find the answer to this easy question: to define a register range, I was using this: \startregister[index]{Menippean} \stopregister[index] and it works. However, when I try to replace [index] with my own key (because I have overlapping ranges) \startregister[satire]{Menippean} \stopregister[satire] I get errors: ERROR: Missing \endcsname inserted. --- TeX said --- <to be read again> \@@idsatkeyexpansion \convertexpanded ... \csname \s!do \c!expansion #1 \endcsname \relax \s!defau... \doprocesspageregister ...#1}\asciiregisterentryA \convertexpanded {\registe... \dodogotopar ...ageregister []{}{Menippean satire} \ifvmode \nobreak \fi <to be read again> \index l.567 \index [imp::spoudogeloion]{\localgreek{spoudog'eloion}} ``serio|-|comi... --- HELP --- From the .log file...

skipping parts in compiling
by andrea valle 22 Feb '06

22 Feb '06

Dear all, I'm writing presentations with large image files. Sometimes I make minor changes (e.g. typos). Is there a way not to recompile all but only some pages after I made my changes? In presentations I only have separate pages (no index, numebr of pages, etc) Thanks -a- Andrea Valle DAMS - Facoltà di Scienze della Formazione Università degli Studi di Torino http://www.semiotiche.it/andrea andrea.valle(a)unito.it

Hi to all, I've always used $\to$ to create arrows in my presentations. After last update I have an undefined control sequence arrow. I can use $\rigtharrow$ but cannot understand...

It seems not possible to typeset in columns (\startcolumns[n=3]... \stopcolumns) within a \startframedtext...\stopframedtext. It all comes out in one long column. How can I accomplish this? yours sincerely, dr. H. van der Meer

bib question
by Patrick Gundlach 22 Feb '06

22 Feb '06

Hello out there, I use Taco's bib module and have a question concering labels/numbering. In the text I use \cite[knuth:texbook] and want to have a label like [1]. In the list of publications I have all bib entries also labeled [1], [2], ... but the ordering in the textbody is incorrect. The first citation in the text is labeled [6] while the corresponding entry in the list of publications it is labeled [1]. The number 6 probably comes from the bib database, where [knuth:texbook] is the 6th entry. So, how do I get [1] both in the place where I cite [knuth:texbook] and in the list of publications? Thanks, Patrick ---------------------------------------- \usemodule[bib] \def\EckNummer#1{[#1]} \chardef\urlhyphenmethod=1 \setuppublications [sorttype=cite, refcommand=number, criterium=used, numbering=yes, numbercommand=\EckNummer, ] \setupbibtex [database=../bib/umbruchlit, ] \setuppublicationlist [before=\blank, ] ---------------------------------------- -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net
