about character expansion
by Pablo Rodriguez 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

Dear list, I would like to introduce character expansion to novice users. I know that ConTeXt adds values automatically. But I’m interested in showing extremely stretched and shrinked characters, as an example of character expansion done wrong. Sorry for not providing a minimal example, but I don’t have any idea about how to achieve that. Does anyone know how to do it? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Table of contents setup
by Willi Egger 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

Hello, I am busy to typeset a book with Maguntia.ttf. I should prepare the TOC with leaders. However how can I get ConTeXT to use the same leader-size on all levels which need leaders? As in the given example the leaders are adapted to the size of the font. Secondly I would like to have the page numbers all in the same size, irrespective from the level. Thirdly, I would love to adapt the distance between the leader-dots to a bigger size. How to do that? Kind regards Willi

Emacs + latest beta
by Fabrice Couvreur 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

Hello, Sorry to insist, but could anyone help me understand the problem I'm having in using Emacs with standalone context ? The following file compiles perfectly from a terminal : /home/aragorn/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-linux/context test.tex /home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/context test.tex (latest beta) With Emacs, it compiles perfectly if you use the 2018 texlive context binary. If I want to use the latest beta context binary, I need to add this to my ~/.emacs file : (setenv "PATH" "/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/:$PATH" t) And there, I encounter a compilation problem : Running `ConTeXt Full' on `pouf' with ``context --purgeall --nonstop pouf.tex''resolvers | trees | analyzing 'home:texmf' mtx-context | run 1: luatex --fmt="/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en" --interaction="nonstopmode" --jobname="pouf" --lua="/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en.lui" --no-parse-first-line --c:currentrun=1 --c:fulljobname="./pouf.tex" --c:input="./pouf.tex" --c:kindofrun=1 --c:maxnofruns=9 --c:nonstopmode --c:purgeall "cont-yes.mkiv" This is LuaTeX, Version 1.08.0 (TeX Live 2018) system commands enabled. resolvers > trees > analyzing 'home:texmf' open source > level 1, order 1, name '/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-yes.mkiv' job > passes > version mismatch: 1.3 <> 1.31 system > system > ConTeXt ver: 2018.08.20 17:47 MKIV beta fmt: 2018.8.20 int: english/english system > system > 'cont-new.mkiv' loaded open source > level 2, order 2, name '/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-new.mkiv' system > beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.mkiv close source > level 2, order 2, name '/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-new.mkiv' system > files > jobname 'pouf', input './pouf', result 'pouf' fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded languages > language 'en' is active open source > level 2, order 3, name '/home/aragorn/pouf.tex' fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (second stage) fonts > 'fallback modern-designsize rm 12pt' is loaded structure > sectioning > chapter @ level 2 : 0.1 -> First chapter metapost > initializing instance 'metafun:1' using format 'metafun' and method 'default' metapost > loading 'metafun' as '/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-context/metapost/context/base/mpiv/metafun.mpiv' using method 'default' metapost > initializing number mode 'scaled' lua error > lua error on line 10 in file /home/aragorn/pouf.tex: ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/node-nut.lua:190: attempt to call a nil value (global 'getid') stack traceback: ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/node-nut.lua:190: in upvalue 'getexpansion' ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-mps.lua:343: in function <...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-mps.lua:338> ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-mps.lua:437: in local 'boxtomp' ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/mlib-pps.lua:1894: in function <...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/mlib-pps.lua:1891> (...tail calls...) 1 2 \startusableMPgraphic{NumberHead} 3 draw outlinetext.f 4 ("\bf\namedheadnumber{chapter}") 5 (withcolor "lightgray") 6 ysized 50pt ;

Question on enabling/disabling modes
by Mikael P. Sundqvist 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

Hi! I am writing notes for my teaching and would like to do the following with modes: * If the file is compiled with context file.tex then everything (i.e. the content in all modes) is typeset. * If the file is compiled with context --mode=test1 file.tex then only mode test1 is typeset. I do not see how to do this easily. The example I am working on looks like this: %%% file.tex \definemode[test1][keep] \definemode[test2][keep] \starttext \startmode[test1] We are in mode test1. \stopmode \startmode[test2] We are in mode test2. \stopmode \stoptext %%% This, however, naturally gives not output, since the modes test1 and test2 are not activated. If I compile with context --mode=test1 file.tex I get the content in mode test1, as I want. I have tried to change "keep" to "yes" in the setup of the modes, but then the material in both modes are typeset no matter what command flag I use. Do I miss something? /Mikael PS In reality I have about 25 lectures, so using this method there will be about 25 modes in total.

protrusion with opening exclamation and question marks
by Pablo Rodriguez 30 Aug '18

Hi Hans, I have the following sample: \definefontfeature[default][default] [protrusion=quality] \setupxtable[frame=off, option=stretch] \startbuffer[standard] ¿Cómo? ¡No! \stopbuffer \startbuffer[right] \hfill¿Cómo? \hfill¡No! \stopbuffer \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=2em] \startembeddedxtable[framecolor=red, align=hanging, foregroundstyle={\ss\bfd}, offset=overlay] \startxrow \startxcell[leftframe=on] \getbuffer[standard]\stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow[toffset=2em] \startxcell[rightframe=on] \getbuffer[right]\stopxcell \startxcell[rightframe=on, align=nothanging] \getbuffer[right]\stopxcell \stopxrow \stopembeddedxtable \stopTEXpage \stoptext It shows that question and exclamation marks are sligtly protruded. Well, in Spanish (and Galician in some ortographies) there are opening exclamation and quotation marks. I think it would make sense to have the same protrusion values for opening quotation and exclamation marks as for the closing ones. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

\startuserdata syntax questions
by Rik Kabel 29 Aug '18

29 Aug '18

Wolfgang, Hans, et al, The new \startuserdata macro looks very promising, and can simplify some work I have in progress. The first question: the wiki example and the source use \userparameter{optionkey} \userparameter{anotherkey} to retrieve the value of optionkey and anotherkey. Is there a way to provide the key/value pairs in a manner that they can be retrieved with the getparameters mechanism, as: \getrawparameters [XX] [optionkey=,anotherkey=,#1] This has the added advantage of allowing the setting of a default value, as \getrawparameters [XX] [optionkey=2em,anotherkey=,#1] Or is there a reason not to use getparameters in this setting? The second question: Is there the possibility to enhance the syntax so that one can write \startMyStuff [optionalkey=value, anotherkey=value] stuff \stopMyStuff instead of \startuserdata [MyStuff] [optionalkey=value, anotherkey=value] stuff \stopuserdata Such syntactic sugar makes sweeter reading of the text, and makes clearer what is being done when nesting the macro. -- Rik Kabel

split long formula in two pages
by Jeong Dal 29 Aug '18

29 Aug '18

Dear all, Sometime ago, I asked about the splitting the long formula. Since it is seldom to have a long formula, I manually break the formula using \startformula\startalign … formula \stopalign\stopformula \startformula\startalign … formula \stopalign\stopformula at the final stage of editing. It is more economical than to make some functions for this purpose, I think. Thank you for reading. Best regards, Dalyoung

definefallbackfamily stopped working for text fonts
by Henri Menke 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

Dear list, In the latest beta the font fallback using a text font in math mode does not work anymore. The log contains messages like char 𝑐 (U+1D450) in font 'MinionPro-It' with id 8: missing char 𝑎 (U+1D44E) in font 'MinionPro-It' with id 8: missing char 𝑏 (U+1D44F) in font 'MinionPro-It' with id 8: missing which is not surprising because a text font does not have math italics. How can I get this to work again? MWE below.

split long formula in two pages
by Jeong Dal 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

Dear all, Sometimes, I wrote a long formula using \startformula\startalign … \stopalign\stopformula. In that case, if the remaining space in the current page is not enough to contain the formula, then it adds ‘page break’ and write the whole formula int the new page. I have read a discussion to split long table in two pages. Is there a similar way for long formula? Here is a minimal example. \showframe \starttext \dorecurse{3}{\input knuth} \startformula\startalign \NC S_1 \NC = 1 = 1 + 0 \bigg( \frac{1}{2}\bigg), \NR \NC S_2 \NC = 1 + \frac{1}{2} = 1 + 1\bigg( \frac{1}{2}\bigg), \NR \NC S_4 \NC = 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \bigg( \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} \bigg) \NR \NC \NC > 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \bigg( \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} \bigg) = 1+ 2\bigg( \frac{1}{2}\bigg), \NR \NC S_8 \NC = 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \bigg( \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} \bigg) + \bigg( \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{7} + \frac{1}{8} \bigg) \NR \NC \NC > 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \bigg( \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} \bigg) + \bigg( \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{8} \bigg) = 1 + 3\bigg( \frac{1}{2}\bigg) \NR \stopalign\stopformula \stoptext Thank you for reading.

Re: [NTG-context] Some questions about an extreme table
by Wolfgang Schuster 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

The normal alignment of figures is with the bottom of the figure on the baseline. You can control the vertical alignment with a few box commands but what you should use depends on the context, in tables I would use 2 while in running text 3 can be better.

Hi, In the table of contents, there is a unwanted blank space after chapter 2. There is a page break if the remaining space is not enough to cover the list of the next chapter. For example, page break after ch 2. in the following example. Is it possible to list them continuously?

Synctex + Sumatra + TextPad
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

Hello, this question extends the "[NTG-context] future versions - synctex" thread. I'm using TextPad for editing Ctx source files, PdfXChange Viewer to view PDFs, both on Windows. After reading some recent posts and after studying some web sources - especially [a] https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/docs/DDE-Commands.html for SumatraPDF viever and [b] https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/116981/how-to-configure-texniccente… for inspiration how to make TXC interoperate with Sumatra, I would like to provide "click-in-PDF-go-to-source" functionality - be Sumatra the viewer for this case. Questions are: 1. How to run Sumatra so that it opens a PDF file AND reacts somehow to a mouse click, in order to provide a command to get to the corresponding place in the source file? (IIUC, Sumatra provides such functionality, as e.g. TeXnic Center use it. [b].) I guess that I have to configure Sumatra somehow, or to launch Sumatra with some command line parameters, so that when I click a point in the PDF (maybe while also holding CTRL or something - but it is a detail), a command is launched to open the source file in the editor and go to a particular line. 2. What should be the command line parameters passed to Sumatra to provide the linkage "open PDF-source at line"? I deduce also that such command should call "mtxrun --script synctex" somehow (which will call "...\tex\texmf-context\scripts\context\lua\mtx-synctex.lua") as the "mtx-synctex" is able to read the .synctex produced during compilation of .tex files. I deduce also that "mtx-synctex" calls the editor (which the user uses to edit source files) in the manner that it tells the editor "open file (...) and go to line (...). Existing "mtx-synctex" is "aware" of "scite" editor, which is - next to "console" - the only editor pre-configured. So: 3. What code should be added into "mtx-synctex" in order to make TextPad an editor known to "mtx-synctex"? I found and tried that command e.g. 'C:\Program Files\TextPad 7\system\ddeopn32.exe" TextPad.dde Test.mkiv(40)' successfully opens "Test.mkiv" (being open before) and scrolls to line #40. (TextPad location may vary - depending on version installed - can be e.g.: C:\Program Files\TextPad 7 C:\Program Files (x86)\TextPad 7 C:\Program Files\TextPad 8 ... ) Any idea would be appreciated...

Spurious breaks in export when blank line ends paragraph
by Rik Kabel 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

List, My understanding of start/stop macros such as \startparagraph...\stopparagraph has been that blank lines are allowed between the block of text and the macros, as \startparagraph This is the text of the paragraph \stopparagraph However, in xml exports the blank line before \stopparagraph leads to spurious break elements in some circumstances, as shown in the following: \setupbackend [export=yes,xhtml=yes] \starttext \startsection[title=trailing blank line] \startparagraph Xxx xxxxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx. Xxx xxxxxxxx xxxxx, \inleft{z} xxxxx xxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxx xxxx xx xxxxx, xxx xxxx xxxxxxxx xx xxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxx xx Xxxxxxxx xxxx, xxx xxxx xxxx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxx xxxx. Xxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxx xxx xxxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxxxx,xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx x xxxxxx, xxxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xxxx. Xxxx xxx xxxxxx xx xxx xxxxxxx xxxx, xxxxxxxx xxxx xxxx xxx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxxx xxxxxxxxx, xxx xxx xxxxx xxx xxxxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxx xxxxxx \inleft{zz}. Xxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxx xx xxxx xxxxxxxx (xxxxx, xxxxxxx, xx xxx xxxxxx). \stopparagraph \stopsection \startsection[title=no blank line] \startparagraph Xxx xxxxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx. Xxx xxxxxxxx xxxxx, \inleft{z} xxxxx xxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxx xxxx xx xxxxx, xxx xxxx xxxxxxxx xx xxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxx xx Xxxxxxxx xxxx, xxx xxxx xxxx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxx xxxx. Xxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxx xxx xxxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxxxx,xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx x xxxxxx, xxxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xxxx. Xxxx xxx xxxxxx xx xxx xxxxxxx xxxx, xxxxxxxx xxxx xxxx xxx xxxxxxxxx xx xxxxx xxxxxxxxx, xxx xxx xxxxx xxx xxxxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxx xxxxxx \inleft{zz}. Xxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxx xx xxxx xxxxxxxx (xxxxx, xxxxxxx, xx xxx xxxxxx). \stopparagraph \stopsection \startsection[title=Another section] \startparagraph This is here to show the bottom of the previous section. \stopparagraph \stopsection \stoptext Note that the pdf output does not display the problem, but the pdf output is not why one runs an export. The breaks disappear in shorter paragraphs, and disappear when the margintext is not present, but appear when margintext is present and the paragraph exceeds some length which I have not worked to determine. Is my understanding of the space rules incorrect, or is this a bug? Since some breaks perhaps should be present, it is difficult to remove these with CSS, or XSLT. One thing that might help is to add a class identifier to breaks indicating what lead to their creation. Of course, not generating these would be better still. -- Rik

future versions
by Hans Hagen 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

Hi, Around the upcoming context meeting we expect to release luatex 1.09 (or 1.10 ... yet undecided) which is the prelude to the next year tex live version. It's another step towards a stable version in terms of functionality as we don't expect much more to be added (in fact, I'm wondering if it makes sense to come up with a leaner and meaner version at some point because context can probably benefit from that). Of course under the hood there are improvements possible and we have some ideas (that might materialize at some point) but generally spoken, this is what one gets. That said, a logical question is how about next versions of context. Are there fundamental features missing? Is more needed? Keep in mind that we're not talking of desk top publishing (click and point and place stuff) and also not of word processing (office like stuff) but of mostly automated structured document rendering. Also, keep in mind the landscape that we operate in (context development is mostly user driven as publishers imo long ago lost interest in any research and development and the potential of tex and friends is largely unknown elsewhere). It's not my intention to implement each possible feature as core feature (no one would document it anyway). Also, as development is basically a spare time effort, don't expect complex commercially interesting niches to come for free either as in that case one can wait till I a find a reason for implementing it for fun or development is driven by a project. When thinking of future additions, tex, lua, metapost of a mix is possible. They should be of interest for more than one user. Of course it can also be that everything needed is there. Maybe existing mechanisms can be improved in terms of functionality or performance (although i think that performance wise we're ok). But again keep in mind that the boundary conditions (all these interacting sub mechanisms) also prohibit some functionality.

Migrating ConTeXt's Textadept settings from v9 to v10.
by cryo shock 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

Hi Hans, I'd surely love help you to adapt ConTeXt's settings from v9 to v10. I hope that the following quotations will help you enough. I also hope that the format doesn't get mixed up when I send this mail. --------------------- QUOTATION start source: https://foicica.com/textadept/manual.html#Migration.Guides Migration Guides Textadept 9 to 10 API Changes Old API Change New API *_G* bit32 Removed N/A *(use bitwise operators)* *buffer* brace_match(pos) Changed brace_match <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#buffer.brace_match>(pos, 0) *lexer* _foldsymbols Replaced add_fold_point() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.add_fold_point> _rules Replaced add_rule() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.add_rule> _tokenstyles Replaced add_style() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.add_style> embed_lexer(parent, child, …) Renamed parent:embed <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.embed>(child, …) _RULES[id] Replaced get_rule <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.get_rule>(id) _RULES[id] = rule Replaced modify_rule <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.modify_rule>(id, rule) N/A Added new() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.new> word_match(list, wchars, icase) Changed word_match <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.word_match>(words, icase) *ui* set_theme Renamed buffer.set_theme() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#buffer.set_theme> *textadept.editing* match_brace Replaced N/A *(menu function)* N/A Added paste() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#textadept.editing.paste> N/A Added paste_reindents <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#textadept.editing.paste_reindents> *textadept.session* default_session Removed Configuration Changes Textadept 10 no longer uses a *~/.textadept/properties.lua* file. Instead, all buffer settings are made in *~/.textadept/init.lua*, and apply to the first and any subsequent buffers. (In Textadept 9, any buffer settings made in *~/.textadept/init.lua* only applied to the first buffer, so a *~/.textadept/properties.lua* was required in order to define buffer settings that would affect subsequent buffers.) Simply copying the contents of your *~/.textadept/properties.lua* into *~/.textadept/init.lua* should be sufficient. Lexer Changes Lexers are now written in a more object-oriented way. Legacy lexers are still supported, but it is recommended that you migrate them <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.Migrating.Legacy.Lexers>. Key Bindings Changes The terminal version’s key sequence for Ctrl+Space is now 'c ' instead of 'c@'. Regex Changes Textadept now uses C++11’s ECMAScript regex syntax <https://foicica.com/textadept/manual.html#Regular.Expressions> instead of TRE <https://github.com/laurikari/tre>. Mac OSX System Requirements Textadept now requires Mac OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) at a minimum. The previous minimum version was 10.5 (Leopard). LuaJIT Changes The LuaJIT version of Textadept has been removed. Any LuaJIT-specific features used in external modules will no longer function. --------------------- QUOTATION end I also found this here: --------------------- QUOTATION start source: https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.Migrating.Legacy.Lexers Migrating Legacy Lexers Legacy lexers are of the form: local l = require('lexer') local token, word_match = l.token, l.word_match local P, R, S = lpeg.P, lpeg.R, lpeg.S local M = {_NAME = '?'} [... token and pattern definitions ...] M._rules = { {'rule', pattern}, [...] } M._tokenstyles = { 'token' = 'style', [...] } M._foldsymbols = { _patterns = {...}, ['token'] = {['start'] = 1, ['end'] = -1}, [...] } return M While such legacy lexers will be handled just fine without any changes, it is recommended that you migrate yours. The migration process is fairly straightforward: 1. Replace all instances of l with lexer, as it’s better practice and results in less confusion. 2. Replace local M = {_NAME = '?'} with local lex = lexer.new('?'), where ? is the name of your legacy lexer. At the end of the lexer, change return M to return lex. 3. Instead of defining rules towards the end of your lexer, define your rules as you define your tokens and patterns using lex:add_rule() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.add_rule>. 4. Similarly, any custom token names should have their styles immediately defined using lex:add_style() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.add_style>. 5. Convert any table arguments passed to lexer.word_match() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.word_match> to a space-separated string of words. 6. Replace any calls to lexer.embed(M, child, ...) and lexer.embed(parent, M, ...) with lex:embed <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.embed>(child, ...) and parent:embed(lex, ...), respectively. 7. Define fold points with simple calls to lex:add_fold_point() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.add_fold_point>. No need to mess with Lua patterns anymore. 8. Any legacy lexer options such as M._FOLDBYINDENTATION, M._LEXBYLINE, M._lexer, etc. should be added as table options to lexer.new() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.new>. 9. Any external lexer rule fetching and/or modifications via lexer._RULES should be changed to use lexer.get_rule() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.get_rule> and lexer.modify_rule() <https://foicica.com/textadept/api.html#lexer.modify_rule>. As an example, consider the following sample legacy lexer: local l = require('lexer') local token, word_match = l.token, l.word_match local P, R, S = lpeg.P, lpeg.R, lpeg.S local M = {_NAME = 'legacy'} local ws = token(l.WHITESPACE, l.space^1) local comment = token(l.COMMENT, '#' * l.nonnewline^0) local string = token(l.STRING, l.delimited_range('"')) local number = token(l.NUMBER, l.float + l.integer) local keyword = token(l.KEYWORD, word_match{'foo', 'bar', 'baz'}) local custom = token('custom', P('quux')) local identifier = token(l.IDENTIFIER, l.word) local operator = token(l.OPERATOR, S('+-*/%^=<>,.()[]{}')) M._rules = { {'whitespace', ws}, {'keyword', keyword}, {'custom', custom}, {'identifier', identifier}, {'string', string}, {'comment', comment}, {'number', number}, {'operator', operator} } M._tokenstyles = { 'custom' = l.STYLE_KEYWORD..',bold' } M._foldsymbols = { _patterns = {'[{}]'}, [l.OPERATOR] = {['{'] = 1, ['}'] = -1} } return M Following the migration steps would yield: local lexer = require('lexer') local token, word_match = lexer.token, lexer.word_match local P, R, S = lpeg.P, lpeg.R, lpeg.S local lex = lexer.new('legacy') lex:add_rule('whitespace', token(lexer.WHITESPACE, lexer.space^1)) lex:add_rule('keyword', token(lexer.KEYWORD, word_match[[foo bar baz]])) lex:add_rule('custom', token('custom', P('quux'))) lex:add_style('custom', lexer.STYLE_KEYWORD..',bold') lex:add_rule('identifier', token(lexer.IDENTIFIER, lexer.word)) lex:add_rule('string', token(lexer.STRING, lexer.delimited_range('"'))) lex:add_rule('comment', token(lexer.COMMENT, '#' * lexer.nonnewline^0)) lex:add_rule('number', token(lexer.NUMBER, lexer.float + lexer.integer)) lex:add_rule('operator', token(lexer.OPERATOR, S('+-*/%^=<>,.()[]{}'))) lex:add_fold_point(lexer.OPERATOR, '{', '}') return lex Considerations Performance There might be some slight overhead when initializing a lexer, but loading a file from disk into Scintilla is usually more expensive. On modern computer systems, I see no difference in speed between Lua lexers and Scintilla’s C++ ones. Optimize lexers for speed by re-arranging lexer.add_rule() calls so that the most common rules match first. Do keep in mind that order matters for similar rules. In some cases, folding may be far more expensive than lexing, particularly in lexers with a lot of potential fold points. If your lexer is exhibiting signs of slowness, try disabling folding in your text editor first. If that speeds things up, you can try reducing the number of fold points you added, overriding lexer.fold() with your own implementation, or simply eliminating folding support from your lexer. Limitations Embedded preprocessor languages like PHP cannot completely embed in their parent languages in that the parent’s tokens do not support start and end rules. This mostly goes unnoticed, but code like <div id="<?php echo $id; ?>"> will not style correctly. Troubleshooting Errors in lexers can be tricky to debug. Lexers print Lua errors to io.stderr and _G.print() statements to io.stdout. Running your editor from a terminal is the easiest way to see errors as they occur. Risks Poorly written lexers have the ability to crash Scintilla (and thus its containing application), so unsaved data might be lost. However, I have only observed these crashes in early lexer development, when syntax errors or pattern errors are present. Once the lexer actually starts styling text (either correctly or incorrectly, it does not matter), I have not observed any crashes. --------------------- QUOTATION end If you could use anything else, let me know.

Textadept with ConTeXt
by Fabrice Couvreur 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

Hello, In order to use another editor than Emacs and after testing Scite, I installed Textadept and modified the init.lua file as follows : textadept.run.compile_commands.tex = 'mtxrun --autogenerate --script context --autopdf --purge --synctex = -1 "% f"' The compilation works but no automatic output in pdf at the end of the process (as with Scite !) What to do with files in /home /aragorn/context/tex /texmf-context/context/data /textadept/ context/ ? Thank you. Fabrice

How can I remove a blank leading line from a buffer

A MacOS X user (with Acrobat 9.5) told me that the program reports that the file "akkerman.mp3" is missing. Although the file is indeed embedded, the /Filespec points to the external file.

how to put page X of N in header or top space?
by David Walther 15 Aug '18

15 Aug '18

Hi, I am slowly learning ConTeXt. I am generating tables and spreadsheets, and transforming them into ConTeXt, finally got it working after a lot of mysterious errors about missing } as macro arguments. I have read this page carefully: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layout How can I alter the page number? Is it in the header, or is it in the topspace? I want this to be at the top of each page of my spreadsheet: My Spreadsheet (centered) Page 1 of 3 (right justified) And on even pages, the other way around: Page 2 of 3 (left justified) My Spreadsheet (centered) What is the right way to do this? Is there an override and a blob of code I need to put into one of the boxes in the Layout? David

referencing a footnote
by Robert Zydenbos 13 Aug '18

13 Aug '18

Another footnote question for the experts. I want to refer to a note from within another, later note. I thought I could do this in the following way: … \footnote[uvu-avu]{These two suffixes […] … \footnote{See n.~\note[uvu-avu].} … But I get this result: There are two things wrong: (1) I want to get a result that looks like “See n. 18.”, with a number that is not superscript. (This happens when I try such referencing in other notes as well as in the main text.) (2) The number is wrong: it is footnote #19, not 18. I *could* work around this problem by totally different means – but I would much prefer to reference notes more or less in the manner I tried above. What could I improve in my code? Robert

integer displayed as .0 float in Lua-5.3
by Pablo Rodriguez 12 Aug '18

12 Aug '18

Dear list, I have the following sample \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=1em] Pages: \ctxlua{context([[\lastpage]])}. Next page: \ctxlua{context([[\lastpage]] + 1)}. (Lua \luaversion) \stopTEXpage \stoptext With Lua-5.2 (ConTeXt with JIT), I get the expected results. But with Lua-5.3 (standard ConTeXt), I get 2.0 as the value for the next page. I’m afraid that there is a bug here. I was told that the integer type has been introduced in Lua-5.3. I had experienced the same issue with the handlecsv module. In my very limited understanding of the issue, integers are displayed as .0 floats. I wonder which would be the way to fix it. Is this a real bug or am I missing something? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Using \dorecheckindentation inside a group
by Aditya Mahajan 10 Aug '18

10 Aug '18

Hi, In t-filter module, I use a group inside \startfilter ... \stopfilter to keep various definitions local. However, as reported on [1], this breaks the `indentnext` option. The following minimal example illustrates the issue: \unprotect \definenamespace [whatever] [ name=whatever, command=yes, setup=list, parent=whatever, ] \appendtoks \setuevalue{\e!start\currentwhatever}{\start_whatever[\currentwhatever]}% \setuvalue {\e!stop\currentwhatever}{\stop_whatever}% \to \everydefinewhatever \starttexdefinition start_whatever \dodoubleargument\start_whatever_indeed \stoptexdefinition \starttexdefinition start_whatever_indeed[#1][#2] \begingroup % to keep assignments local \edef\currentwhatever{#1} \setupwhatever[#1][#2] \stoptexdefinition \starttexdefinition stop_whatever \useindentnextparameter\whateverparameter \dorechecknextindentation \endgroup \stoptexdefinition \protect \definewhatever[whatever] \setupindenting[big,yes] \startbuffer \input ward \startwhatever \input tufte \stopwhatever \input ward \stopbuffer \starttext \section{With indentnext=yes} \setupwhatever[indentnext=yes] \getbuffer \section{with indentnext=no} \setupwhatever[indentnext=no] \getbuffer \section{with indentnext=auto} \setupwhatever[indentnext=auto] \getbuffer \stoptext I use a \begingroup inside \start_whatever to keep the definitions local (otherwise \setupwhatever[#1][#2] will change the global setup). This means that I have to use \dorecheckindentation \endgroup. As a result, when I use `indentnext=auto`, the check for \par fails (see the third case in the above example). How can I fix this?

Dear, The examples in mathalign.pdf(p4 - ) tells us the method of referencing the equation. The numbers for the equation is written as (1.1), and in the text, it is written as (1.1).

resetting footnote counter
by Robert Zydenbos 09 Aug '18

09 Aug '18

What I've done is the following: I've made a zip archive (see attachment) with a few relevant files – the two first files that will be a part of the book: preface.tex and how-to-use.tex, together with an environment file manual-environment-xasia.tex with a lot of settings, and the starting file sample.tex which puts everything together. This does not need odd things like exotic fonts, and it does not contain uncommon tables etc. I've changed the main font to TeX Gyre Termes, which all of us have (so I assume, since it comes with the major TeX distributions), so there should be no problems there either; but if there is an error message, you can comment out line 12 in manual-environment-xasia.tex and de-comment line 13 to turn the font into Times (or you can change the name of the font to anything you have on your computer). Right now I am using an iMac with the latest OS installed. The 'footnotes' will be placed at the end of the chapters (i.e., they will be endnotes). If you run sample.tex through ConTeXt and XeTeX (i.e., MkII) and look at the final page, you will see that the footnote / endnote marker has not been reset. Robert > On 9.

A simple footnote question this time. I would like to print endnotes at the end of every chapter in my book, and then reset the footnote counter so that in the next chapter the first note will be ‘1’ again. I suppose this should be done by means of \setupfootnotes – but with which parameter? Robert

seeindex problem with recent betas
by Rik Kabel 09 Aug '18

09 Aug '18

With older versions of ConTeXt (including that in TL18) seeindex entries pointing to a multi-level (plussed) index entry worked (visually, at least) without complaint. The output might look like: Digby, John 73 Dilbert see Adams+Scott Dirac, Paul 287 or Digby, John 73 Dilbert see Adams, Scott Dirac, Paul 287 where the second part is a literal repeat of what is in the second argument of seeindex. (It is not, however, linked to the plussed entry as it would be to a single-level entry.) However, current version (2018.07.27 19:12) generates a result like: Digby, John 73 Dilbert Dirac, Paul 287 along with the warning: structure > registers > invalid crosslink : Adams+Scott, ignored Surely it is better to display the non-linked see entry as before (together with the warning message so that the non-linking is pointed out) and have a printable document than it is to display an empty entry! -- Rik

question regarding \placefloats
by Susanne G. Loeber 08 Aug '18

08 Aug '18

Dear Reader, I have a document with figures and tables. I have tried to use the command \placefloats to create a list of all my floats as recommended on the page Floating Objects, section Flushing floats. There it states: The command \placefloats outputs all pending floats. I hoped to get a list with all tables, all figures and all other possible floats.That list would either be sorted per chapter or sorted per float. However, I was not able to make it work at all. In the appendix, you can find my struggles. First: \placefloats does not work. \placelistoffloats does not exist as a command My solution is two seperate commands, one for the tables \placelistoftables and one for the figures \completelistoffigures. Question: how to use \placefloats correctly to get a list of all floats? Second: \startcombination[1*2] looks nice, but does not add information to the \placelistoffigures . My solution is to place the \startcombination inside a \placefigure. Question: Is there a better way? Kind regards, thanks, Susanne

faulty to unicode mapping of chars encoded with surrogate pairs?
by Ulrike Fischer 08 Aug '18

08 Aug '18

when I compile the following with context \pdfvariable compresslevel=0 \starttext $f$ \stoptext I get in the pdf 1 beginbfchar <0515> <D875DC53> endbfchar D875DC53 is according to http://www.russellcottrell.com/greek/utilities/surrogatepaircalculator.htm the codepoint 2D453 and this is not a valid unicode point. As a result copy& paste doesn't work correctly. A similar example with xelatex writes D835DC53 (remark the 3 instead of the 7) instead in the pdf which gives the correct code point 1D453 and copies fine. lualatex gives the faulty value too. -- Ulrike Fischer http://www.troubleshooting-tex.de/

xrightarrow is not straight
by Joshua Moerman 08 Aug '18

08 Aug '18

Hi ConTeXt mailing list, I am using the extensible arrows and I am not really satisfied with the looks of it. The most important issue I have is that the vertical spacing is too much. You can see this in the attached picture: the left arrow is using \xrightarrow{\neq a} and the right arrow is using \stackrel{\neq a}{\longrightarrow}. I think the right one (with stackrel) looks more natural. Is there a way to setup the vertical spacing? Another thing I noticed is that the line is not very consistent. This might be a font issue (I am using Euler). Luckily, the inconsistent overlap is barely visible when printed. Thanks again! Groetjes, Joshua

Footnotes in titles, 3 years old file compiles now different
by Huseyin Özoguz 07 Aug '18

07 Aug '18

Hello together, I have a file from 2015, which contains something like this: \section{title\footnote{ftn-content}} And the compiled pdf from then show the footnote correct and with the number in order to the other footnotes. But now I have compiled it again without differences, and the footnote disappears. I have read about this and basically it says that apart from local footnotes its not possible anymore (?) to set footnotes in titles (s.t. the numbers stay in order to all the other footnotes). What changed since 2015? That is a problem for me because I have to compile a book from then to print it again (with minor other corrections in the text, but nothing in style). How to achieve the same result like back then? Thank you! Huseyin

using both footnotes and endnotes in a document

A puzzle for note specialists: I would like to use both endnotes as well as footnotes in one and the same document, for different kinds of notes. Ideally, I should be able to write something like: ----- Here is a footnote,\footnote{The footnotes comes here.} and now comes an note that should appear at the end of my text.\endnote{And this is the endnote.} ----- For this I would need commands for determining the kind of markers for the notes (I know what to do for footnotes: this looks like \setupfootnotes [conversion=characters]; but what does one do for endnotes?)

CSS selector for elements strictly preceded by other elements
by MF 04 Aug '18

04 Aug '18

Hello list, please consider these XML snippets: <e/>some text<f/> <e/>some text<h>blah blah</h>some other text<f/> <e/><f/> now apply these CSS selectors to them: e ~ f matches all e + f matches the first and the third There's no CSS selector to match ONLY the third. But i have a use case for that: sometimes i have endnote markers that immediately follow footnote markers. Since -- in my layout -- footnotes have letter markers and endnotes numbers, it results in something like "c30" in superscript. It would be nice putting a comma between them ("c,30") or a thin space, but the "e + f" selector does not discriminate between: blah blah<footnote-ref idref="c"/><endnote-ref idref="30"/> and blah blah<footnote-ref idref="d"/> some other text <endnote-ref idref="31"/> it would match both, but it's only the first one that i want to catch. I'd suggest a non-standard "e ++ f" operator. Would you prefer a lpath expression (which one)? Greetings, Massi

Issue with bibtex crossref in combination with {-}
by Joshua Moerman 02 Aug '18

02 Aug '18

Hi ConTeXt people, I found another issue with the crossref feature in ConTeXt. I get an error when a {-} is used in a crossref. If it is used directly in the paper entry, it works just fine. Replacing {-} by only - works, but the DBLP database generates {-} and it would be nice to use that directly. Example: \usebtxdefinitions[apa] \startbuffer[biblio] @inproceedings{PAPER, author = {First Last}, title = {PaperTitle}, booktitle = {Conference of BlaBla}, year = {2017}, crossref = {CONF}, } @proceedings{CONF, title = {Conference on BlaBla}, year = {2017}, editor = {Jan{-}Willem Jansen}, publisher = {Springer}, } \stopbuffer \usebtxdataset[biblio.buffer] \starttext See \cite{PAPER}. \blank \placelistofpublications \blank \showbtxdatasetcompleteness \stoptext This gives the error: tex error > tex error on line 1 in file C:/Users/joshua/Documents/PhD/Thesis/ConTeXtTests/biblio.tex: ! Extra }, or forgotten \endgroup But it should just work without errors (I think), since using extra {} should work. Thanks in advance. Groetjes, Joshua

Re: [NTG-context] Problem of compiling a file with Emacs

The issue is very strange, the log file shows no errors. However, the metapost code is not showed in the pdf file when is complied from emacs (only in your computer). This happen with any metapost code? I can't find what is not working well.

column-spanning floats
by Taco Hoekwater 01 Aug '18

01 Aug '18

Hi all, It used to be that in an example like the one attached where you were using \startcolumns and used an \externalfigure that was wider than the column width, the figure would automatically be moved to the top of _both_ columns on the next page. That was a bit tricky sometimes, but worked fine. However, when I run with the current mkiv beta, the figure is simply overlapping the next column, and it does not auto-migrate. Also \startpostponing does not work here because it will indeed move to the next page, but still only occupies the left column, thus overlapping any text in the second column. Is that functionality gone, or do I need to do something special? Best wishes, Taco PS On top of that, the column balancing creates bad inter-paragraph spacing in the left column. No idea where that comes from! :(

I tested the file and conTeXt works well from emacs. The problem seems to be related with your conTeXt standalone installation. when the file is compiled, emacs create a log buffer *... output*. You could post that information to look the possible error. Have you tried reinstalling conTeXt? attached test.pdf On 07/31/2018 04:43 AM, Fabrice Couvreur wrote: > With (setenv "PATH" > "/home/aragorn/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-linux/context:$PATH" t) It > works properly with C-c C-c > > > With (setenv "PATH" > "/home/aragorn/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin:$PATH" t) It does not > work with C-c C-c > > The compilation is however correct by using a terminal without Emacs > from the standalone version > Fabrice > > 2018-07-31 10:18 GMT+02:00 Fabrice Couvreur > <fabrice1.couvreur(a)gmail.com <mailto:fabrice1.couvreur@gmail.com>>: > > Hello, > I did the same thing as you, but nothing changes.

TABLE setups
by Henning Hraban Ramm 30 Jul '18

30 Jul '18

Ahoi, I need a few different table styles and don’t think it makes sense to setup them every single time. Is there a \defineTABLE[mystyle], and then \setupTABLE[mystyle][...] ? Or can I go via setups like \bTABLE[setups=mystyle] ? Greetlings, Hraban --- https://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.dreiviertelhaus.de GPG Key ID 1C9B22FD

Issue with page break at \blank samepage

URLs break bib export

The new tagged biblography export is very nice, but there is a routine (marked UGLY in the source) that causes processing to fail with otherwise-valid input. The failure message is ...eXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/back-exp.lua:3889: invalid capture index stack traceback: [C]: in function 'gsub' ...eXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/back-exp.lua:3889: in function <...eXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/back-exp.lua:3747> (...tail calls...) and two URLs which cause this problem are: url = {http://www.jerwood-no.org.uk/pdf/Dunning%20Kruger.pdf}, url = {http://oll.libertyfund.org/?option=com_staticxt&staticfile=show.php\%3Fcollection=46&Itemid=27}, These URLs caused no problem with PDF output or in the previous exports, although they were not printed and exist only in the bibliography. Do I need to protect the special characters in the bib file, or is this a problem with the UGLY code? -- Rik

Set up a theorem style

Hello, I used LaTeX for a long time before converting (with difficulty !) to ConteXt.

E.g.: 3pt {\topsep}% measure of space to leave below the theorem. E.g.: 3pt {\itshape}% name of font to use in the body of the theorem {0pt}% measure of space to indent {\bfseries}% name of head font * {. ---}% punctuation between head and body* { }% space after theorem head; " " = normal interword space {\thmname{#1}\thmnumber{ #2}\thmnote{ (#3)}} \theoremstyle{theoremdd} \newtheorem{thmd}{Theorem}[section] I'm trying to do the same thing with ConTeXt but I can not do it completely : \setupenumerations[ before={\blank}, after={\blank}, text=Théorème, alternative=serried, title=no, prefix=yes, prefixsegments=chapter, way=bysection, right=., titlestyle=bold, style=italic, width=broad, ] \defineenumeration[theorem] \starttext \startchapter[title={First Chapter}] \startsection[title={First Section}] \dorecurse{2}{ \starttheorem \input ward \stoptheorem} \stopsection \stopchapter \startchapter[title={Second Chapter}] \startsection[title={Second Section}] \dorecurse{2}{ \starttheorem \input ward \stoptheorem} \stopsection \stopchapter \stoptext Thanks Fabrice

about the defining itemized columns.

Since the numbers in the definitions are calculated by .84/2, .84/3, .84/4, I want to combine those definitions in one form. Is it possible to define a one definition which can be set by argument as following. \define[1]\iCol{\starttabulate[|*{#1}{|lw(.84/#1)\makeupwidth|}]} When I call it \iCol{2}, the first *{#1} is working, but the second #1 is a problem. I tried \ctxlua for division, but it didn’t work either. Is there a nice way to define them in one definition? It may be my greedy hope. Thanks for reading. Best regards, Dalyoung

Questions to PDF/A compliant documents: missing ICC files?
by Tomas Hala 26 Jul '18

26 Jul '18

Hi all, at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/PDF/A I found the following: """"" In ConTeXt mkiv, in order to create such a compliant PDF/A file, one can do as follows: first install (or check that they are present) the following color profiles files default_cmyk.icc default_gray.icc default_rgb.icc ISOcoated_v2_300_eci.icc into tex/texmf-context/colors/icc/profiles of your Context standalone directory. The default_*.icc files are part of ghostscript... """"" So I checked that they are present (CentOS 6.6, GPL Ghostscript 8.70) and I discovered that these files are not present at any ConTeXt (or TeX) installation from TeXlive neither as separate files, nor at file context/colors/icc/context/colorprofiles.xml. Only default_gray.icc is present as a part of ConTeXt installations from our garden. Therefore, I would like to ask (a) where I can find the set of original default*.icc files, (b) what is the reason why these files are not included in the TeXlive and garden installations, (c) if it is possible to add it there for future, and (d) if the produced PDF (with \setupbackend[format={pdf/a-1b:2005}...]) is PDF/a compliant when these icc files are not present and the whole content of the document is only in black (i.e. no grayscale, no colours). Our university decided to be "PDF/a compliant", that is the reason why I am asking. Best wishes, Tomáš

Dear list, I have the following sample: \definefontfeature[effect]%[effect=.2] [effect={width=.3,delta=0.4,factor=0.3}] \definefontfeature[oldle][onum=yes] \setupbodyfont[palatino] \starttext {\feature[+][effect]1234567890} 1234567890 {\feature[+][oldle]1234567890} \stoptext I wonder why the first font feature ("effect") doesn’t work. What am I missing? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Modifying bibliography entries using lua
by Stanislav Sokolenko 24 Jul '18

Dear list, I'm struggling to output bibliography entries into lua for string modification (like making a particular author name bold). In effect, I just need something like the following: \starttexdefinition btx:customauthor \startluacode local text = context.btxflush('author') -- tex.sprint(text) -- fails because text remains nil \stopluacode \stoptexdefinition It's clear that btxflux is the wrong function for this as it writes the contents to file rather than returning a variable in lua... Is there a way to directly access what btxflush is writing through the publications table or other means? I've gone over the source code but I can't decipher what btxflush is actually doing. Thanks, Stan Longer MNWE: \stopluacode \startbuffer[ref] @article{solo, author = {Lastname, Firstname}, title = {Solo work}, journal = {Journal}, year = {2000}, month = {1}, volume = {1} } \stopbuffer \usebtxdataset[ref][ref.buffer] \setupbtx[dataset=ref] \definebtxrendering[ref][dataset=ref] \setupbtx[default:cite] [alternative=authoryear, etallimit=1] \starttexdefinition btx:customauthor \startluacode local text = context.btxflush('author') -- tex.sprint(text) -- text remains nill \stopluacode \stoptexdefinition \startsetups btx:default:list:article \texdefinition{btx:customauthor} \texdefinition{btx:default:title} \texdefinition{btx:default:journal} \texdefinition{btx:default:year} \removeunwantedspaces \removepunctuation \btxperiod \stopsetups \starttext Citations: \cite[solo] \startsubject[title=Bibliography] \placelistofpublications[ref][method=dataset] \stopsection \stoptext
