Index bug
by Richard Gabriel 12 Jan '06

12 Jan '06

Hello ConTeXters, I've noticed the following strange behavior of the index: If an indexterm occurs twice (or more times) on the same page in different section levels, it will be also linked twice from the index. Try the following minimal example: --- \setupoutput[pdftex] \starttext \chapter{First Chapter} Some text...\index{word} \section {First Section} Some text...\index{word} Some text...\index{another word} Some text...\index{another word} \page[yes] \completeindex \stoptext --- In the Index, you will get: a another word 1 w word 1,1 Does anybody guess? Or is it really a bug? Thanks, Richard

[NTG-context] completecontent, completelistoffigures and headertexts
by Renaud AUBIN 12 Jan '06

12 Jan '06

Hi all, Assume that I have a document with more than one page for \completecontent and \completelistoffigures. My frontmatter is: \startfrontmatter \completecontent[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all] \completelistoffigures[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all] \component src/chapters/c_intro \stopfrontmatter I want chapter mark within the header: \startfrontmatter \completecontent[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all] \completelistoffigures[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all] \setupheadertexts[][{\sl \getmarking[chapter]}] \component src/chapters/c_intro \stopfrontmatter After that, I would obtain a "title" within my completecontent and completelof headers : \startfrontmatter \setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals] \setuppagenumber[number=1] \setupheadertexts[][{\sl Table des matières}] \completecontent[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all] \setupheadertexts[][{\sl Table des matières}] \completelistoffigures[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all] \setupheadertexts[][{\sl \getmarking[chapter]}] \component src/chapters/c_intro \stopfrontmatter I doesn't work as I want since I have: completecontent page>1 header : Figures completelof page>1 header : none introduction page>1 header: Introduction Is there any proper solution I don't know ? Sure, but which ? Cheers,

Right-to-left typesetting in Farsi for Context.
by John R. Culleton 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

First I ask the question: is Context the right tool for rtl typesetting of e.g, Farsi? Second I would like a reference to the pertinent Context manual or module for such typesetting. Finally I would like to know if there is a typescript extant for Farsi (Persian) wich I believe uses the Arabic alphabet with some modifications. -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf

\inmargin footnotes
by Charles Doherty 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

Dear all, When I put a footnote reference within \inmargin \setupinmargin[style=\tfxx\setupinterlinespace] he sent one of his followers to the man of God to put out his rekindled fire \inmargin{This is a reference to the \italic{tellach} \footnote{Cf.\ Fergus Kelly, \slanted{A Guide to Early Irish Law}, 68.} procedure for laying claim to land.} and ordered him to be expelled from the territory. When the footnote is typeset the footnote number is placed beneath the first line of the footnote text. What can I do to have the footnote number in its normal position? Thanks, Charlie
