Hi all, Are there any dictionnaries for automatic correction that work within Context. If not does this exist for other Tex macro packages ? Thanks. Dirar.

Updated math modules
by Giuseppe Bilotta 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

Hello guys, attached to the following please find a .tar.bz2-packed file containing updated t-amsl and t-nath. Those of you that had any problems, please try these modules. In particular, when you had to use a workaround (e.g. \startnathequation) revert to the original (e.g. \startformula) and check that things now work correctly. If you find any problems and/or find I forgot to apply some patches, please repost your problems/patches as an answer to this email. I'll also send the updates to CTAN. -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta

Metapost produces "unknown"
by Aditya Mahajan 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

Hi, I tried an example for generating linear text placement. % File text.mp input mp-tool ; % some initializations and auxiliary macros input mp-spec ; % macros that support special features prologues := 2; beginfig(1) draw hlintext.lft(0, 20, 5, 20cm, "@3e") ; draw vlogtext.bot(0, 10, 9, 10cm, "@3e") ; endfig; end; %----------------------------- and compile it using $texexec -mptex text.mp (Output given at bottom) I get the error unknown file type: texmfscripts and the eps file text.1 has "unknown" written all over the place. There is something misconfigured in my system (Windows XP Miktex, updated tonight). Can someone help me to debug the problem.

Degree sign half-works
by Duncan Hothersall 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

Hi all. The following, when run through live.contextgarden.net (and my own installation), produces odd results: %Input is utf8 (Unicode) \enableregime[utf] \useencoding[uc] %MathML is processed directly \useXMLfilter[utf] \usemodule[mathml] \starttext Test normal text: 180Â° Test MathML: \startXMLdata <math display="block" id="gincp74b"> <mrow> <mn>108</mn><mo>Â°</mo> </mrow> </math>\stopXMLdata \stoptext When the degree sign appears in normal text it works fine, when it appears in MathML it comes out as $^$. I have been searching in the base files but can't see the hook. Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this? Thanks. Duncan

columnset's bodyfont+interlinespace ?
by Steffen Wolfrum 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

Hi, when using \startcolumns I could use: \startcolumns[n=2,rule=off] \setupindenting[none] \switchtobodyfont[8.5pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=10pt] \clubpenalty=0\widowpenalty=10000\displaywidowpenalty=10000\brokenpenalty=0 ... but when using \definecolumnset[myset][n=2] \startcolumnset[myset] \switchtobodyfont[8.5pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=10pt] ... doesn't work (actually it ends in halfempty pages). How to set fontsize+interlinespace with columnsets ? Steffen

by olivier Turlier 22 Nov '04

I've tryed using (is that natural?) rsync on win xp (for testing Hans method for updating Contex). It works smooth if you stay away from xp sp2. Otherwise, you get a blue screen complaining about memory pbs (error/non error tested twice, on 2 differents win$$box). -- Olivier TURLIER
