interactive footnote links
by Pablo Rodriguez 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

Hans, I have a proposal for interactive footnote links. First, the sample: \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext a\footnote{b} \stoptext In the PDF file, the two links are defined: << /Subtype /Link /Dest [13 0 R /Fit] /F 4 /Rect [76.725 698.345 80.957 712.772] /Border [0 0 0]>> << /Subtype /Link /Dest [13 0 R /Fit] /F 4 /Rect [61.654 115.692 65.886 127.715] /Border [0 0 0]>> How about changing destination in both links for the following? /Dest [13 0 R /XYZ left top null] BTW, there seems that /Rect dimensions are [left bottom right top]. This would make: << /Subtype /Link /Dest [13 0 R /XYZ 61.654 127.715 null] /F 4 /Rect [76.725 698.345 80.957 712.772] /Border [0 0 0]>> << /Subtype /Link /Dest [13 0 R /XYZ 76.725 712.772 null] /F 4 /Rect [61.654 115.692 65.886 127.715] /Border [0 0 0]>> If this feature were implemented, there would be no change in display after clicking in a footnote link (or clicking back). And that would make ConTeXt even more awesome than it is now :-). Many thanks for your help and for your extraordinary work developing ConTeXt, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

publications in footnotes (new bibliography mkiv)
by Jörg Weger 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

I have to prepare a paper in literary science. I need to be able to quote a reference in a footnote instead of a in-text reference. Such a footnote should look the same or similar as the entry in the publications list. I guess that I have to do \setupbtxcitevariant and \definebtxcitevariant but then I am stuck. It would be great if one could put a separate page number/range for every footnote. Is there maybe already a mechanism for that? Greetings Jörg

bibliography again: “von” and “van”
by Jörg Weger 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

The default way to diplay (inverted) names with “von” and “van” is “von Goethe” and “van Halen” in in-text references and “von Goethe, Johann Wolfgang” and “van Halen, Edward”. The problem with this is that while AFAIK the Dutch “van Halen” means that one of his ancestors came ”from” a place/city called “Halen” in German names the “von” is always a sign of nobility. Even long before monarchy and nobility was abolished in Germany by the revolution of 1919 you would not have talked about “von Goethe” but simply “Goethe”–so in a reference it would be “(Goethe 1774)” and “Goethe, Johann Wolfgang von” in the publications list, but still “(van Halen 1984)” and “van Halen, Edward”. It would be nice if you could switch between two modes while invoking the citation. I have not yet discovered where this order is defined. Greetings Jörg

Strange bug in interactive table of content...
by Rob Heusdens 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

A right parenthesis ')' shows up as black in the interactive table of contents (which otherwise displays as green). Here is a MWE: \setupcolors[state=start] \setupinteraction[state=start] \definecombinedlist[content][chapter] \setupcombinedlist[content][level=4, alternative=c] \setbreakpoints[compound] \starttext \completecontent \chapter{Noten bij de digitale (her)uitgave} \chapter{Noten bij de digitale (her)\-uitgave} \chapter{Tries: her)uit} \chapter{Tries: her)ui} \chapter{Tries: er)uit} \stoptext If I comment \setbreakpoint[compound] the bug does not show. It seems to matter what characters come before and after the right parenthesis for this bug to show up. To bypass the problem, one can use \- after the rparen, and then the bug does not show up, but I don't think anyone encountered this small and particular bug... Greetings, Rob Output in attachement.

Here's an example: *** traditional (stacked) footnotes *** *************************************** 1. This is the text of the first footnote 2. This is the text of the second footnote *** inline footnotes (one paragraph for all the footnotes) *** ************************************************************** 1. first footnote --- 2. second footnote --- 3. the third footnote, extending to the next line --- 4. fourth one *** footnotes in columns in ConTeXt (\setupfootnotes[n=3]) *** ************************************************************** 1. first footnote 2. second one 3. third one 4. fourth one, hy- phenated "Inline footnotes" are good when you have a lot of short notes, that would eat a lot of vertical space, and sometimes other longer footnotes. I've put an m-dash as a separator, but you could use a wide space or another separator. Footnotes in columns are good if they are ALL shorter than the column width. The LaTeX package "footmisc" provides the "inline footnotes" by the option "para". But, if I understand right, LaTeX packages are not compatible with ConTeXt.

Re: [NTG-context] bibliography again: “von” and “van”

On 28 Jan 2015, at 12:00 , Keith Schultz <keithjschultz(a)icloud.com> wrote > > We could simply add all kinds of switches and coding to help this process, > but in the end we end up with an over complicated format that grows into a monster! and > > I as an old school type and database person would think it far better, to take > a more pratical approach. Most probably I’m not qualified to seriously discuss Bibliography matters in ConTeXt, but wat Keith has written here appeals to me. It would probably be OK to try and control all and everything in a Bibliography with commands and codes if there were only a few standard ways of presenting a bibliography. But that is not the case, even if most people seem to use apa-style. What should one do with an old book, of which there are several “facsimile editions” and an English translation, and you were required, by the publisher or the university, to render it in the Bibliography in the following way: Gasparini, Francesco, L’Armonico pratico al cimbalo (Venice, 1709); repr. (New York, 1967); repr. (Bologna, 2001); trans. Frank Stillings as The Practical Harmonist at the Harpsichord (New Haven, CT, 1963) or, other example: Buchner, Hans, Das Fundamentbuch (c1525), CH-Bmi, MS F.I.8; ME: in Carl Paesler, ‘Fundamentbuch von Hans von Constanz, Ein Beitrag zur Geschichte des Orgelspiels im 16. Jahrhundert’, VMw, 5 (1889), 1-192 ? With a Bibliography to make of about 500 items, for a PhD thesis, of which more than half were of this kind, I gave up on all sophisticated tools of BibTeX and exclusively used the format Booklet, with Author, Title, City and PubYear, generated a .bbl and edited that to give me the correct form. And, yes, I had to tweak the apa -style a little but that part was easy. The two examples are in the .bbl-file as follows: \startpublication[k=Gasparini:2001ublt,t=booklet, a={{{Gasparini, Francesco}}},y=2001, n=73,s={Gas}01] \author[]{}[]{}{{Gasparini, Francesco}} \pubyear{1963} \title{{L'armonico pratico al cimbalo {\em (Venice, 1708); repr.~(New York, 1967); repr. (Bologna, 2001); trans.~by Frank Stillings~as} The Practical Harmonist at the Harpsichord}} \city{New Haven, CT} \stoppublication \startpublication[k=Buchner:1525fblt,t=booklet, a={{{Buchner, Hans}}},y=, n=39,s={Buc}] \author[]{}[]{}{{Buchner, Hans}} \title{{{Das Fundamentbuch} {\em ({\em c}1525), CH-Bmi, MS F.I.8; ME: in Carl Paesler, \quote{Fundamentbuch von Hans von Constanz, Ein Beitrag zur Geschichte des Orgelspiels im 16.~Jahrhundert}}, VMw, {\em 5 (1889), 1-192}}} \stoppublication Primitive? Certainly. But it is straightforward, very flexible and it works. I hope of course that the new Bibliography tool will be very powerful, but I also hope that it will remain possible, in ConTeXt, to keep doing things in a simple manner. Best regards, Robert Blackstone

bibliography: alignment of first hanging lines in publications list, hyphenation
by Jörg Weger 29 Jan '15

29 Jan '15

Attached are a MWE using plain APA and the corresponding BibTeX file. (Don’t mind the mistakes regarding series/volumes, I got that working in my personal setup that overrides plain APA.) APA style defaults with hanging indents in the publications list. The respectively hanging first lines of each entry in the publications list are not properly aligned on the left. (The indented lines are). I would like all of those first lines to start on the very left of the textfield. If I use \hyphenation to prevent e.g. names from being hyphenated those words might be driven into the right margin. Hanging punctuation doesn’t seem to work as well. Is there anything that can be done about that? Or how can the justification be switched to flush left/ragged right with hanging indents on the left? Greetings Jörg PS: And by the way, “\placebtxrendering[criterium=all]” is not working anymore. I think I had it working before to place all entries from the BibTeX file into the publications list regardless of their actual appearance in the text as citations–which was a good way to test only the publications list’s layout.

Announcement: kfreebsd binaries
by Alan BRASLAU 28 Jan '15

28 Jan '15

Hello, Kfreebsd is a Debian/GNU distribution built upon a freebsd kernel rather than a linux kernel. I have been building binaries for kfreebsd 64bit and 32bit systems (as well as both freebsd and linux binaries). However, we do not believe that anyone is downloading and using these binaries. Unless someone asks that we continue to provide kfreebsd binaries, we intend on dropping support for them in the Context standalone distribution. We shall continue providing both freebsd and linux binaries. Alan P.S. linux binaries typically suffer from glibc compatibility issues. We attempt to build them on systems that are old enough (read outdated) so that they will work for all users. Freebsd does not suffer from such issues, but kfreebsd binaries do to some extent, making its support slightly more complicated.

Formatting bibliographic inline references and publications list
by Jörg Weger 27 Jan '15

27 Jan '15

Hello everybody, I am rather new to ConTeXt and I am momentarily stuck with the following: How can I further format the way an inline reference and a bibliographic reference in the publications list are displayed? For example I would like to display the author(s) in spaced-out small caps (I am using the “letterspace” module). The year should be in oldstyle numbers both in the inline reference and in the publications list. An inline-reference should like this (simulated without BibTeX, letterspacing slightly exaggerated): % ====== MWE =============================== \usemodule[t][letterspace] \defineletterspace [LSsmcp] \setupletterspace [LSsmcp][factor=.08, spaceskip=.4em, suppresskern=no,] \starttext \input knuth ({\LSsmcp {\sc Knuth}} {\os 1991}) \input zapf \stoptext % ========================================== I have defaulted oldstyle numbers my environment but I would like to get the the small caps working for the author(s) name(s). I messed around with \setuppublications and \setupcite without success. Is there a way to invoke such formatting in those setups? Greetings Joerg

Context modules not on CATN and not in TeX Live
by Axel Kielhorn 26 Jan '15

26 Jan '15

Hi! I'm trying to learn ConTeXt working through some examples I found on Context Garden and the internet. Since I already have TeX Live 2014 installed I could run most of the examples. When I ran into a problem, I installed the standalone version and compared the supplied modules. The following modules are not part of Context in TeX Live 2014. > animation/ GPL 3 > annotation/ GPL 3 > cmscbf/ GPL 2 on CTAN > cmttbf/ GPL 2 on CTAN > fancybreak/ GPL 3 > layout/ GPL > title/ GPL 3 > urwgaramond/ GPL 2 on CTAN > urwgothic/ Public Domain on CTAN > visualcounter/ Simplified BSD License Some are on CTAN, some are missing there. Since TeX Live takes the files from CTAN, it would be nice to put the missing modules there. What is the correct way to do that? I ask because I want to give a tutorial about ConTeXt at the Dante meeting in april and it would be nice to tell the audience that everything they need is already part of TeX Live and no extra installation is required. Axel -- Man sollte das mal mit ConTeXt betrachten.
