It's funny that they exists ) I want to point out that 40 Kb is too small for any pdf documents, even simplest ones. Sometimes it's necessary to show the document produced, but I never managed to get it smaller then 100 Kb. Can the limit be increased, say, to 200Kb? Vyatcheslav

\setupfloat[..][..., after=\stopframedtext] not working?
by Matthijs Kooijman 05 Dec '09

05 Dec '09

Hi all, the following example is not working for me: \setupfloat[intermezzo][before=\startframedtext[width=10cm],after=\stopframedtext] \starttext \placeintermezzo{Caption}{Text} \stoptext It fails with the following message: ! Undefined control sequence. \stopframedtext ->\dostopframedtext l.1 ...ramedtext[width=10cm],after=\stopframedtext ] Am I doing anything wrong, or is there perhaps another way to achieve this? I've tried passing width=10cm to \setupfloat as well as \placefloat, but that doesn't seem to do anything. Gr. Matthijs

Bibliography help
by Curiouslearn 05 Dec '09

05 Dec '09

Hi, Is it possible to use .bib files that I had made for latex (it is a bibtex database), with Context? Do I need to use the module bibltx for these? When I compile my source code the Log window says, module bibltx not found (log file is pasted below). I tried the first example in the Bibliography article on Context Garden with some small changes. That is, I tried the following. \usemodule[bib] \usemodule[bibltx] \setupbibtex[database=econbibTest] \starttext \section{Checking Bib} See \cite[Bergstrom_Bagnoli(2005)] for monotonicity properties of hazard rates of various standard distributions. \completepublications[criterium=all] \stoptext @ARTICLE{Bergstrom_Bagnoli(2005), author = {Mark Bagnoli and Ted Bergstrom}, title = {Log-concave Probability and its Applications}, journal = {Economic Theory}, year = {2005}, volume = {26}, pages = {445-469}, timestamp = {2008.06.08} } I have attached the output. I have reproduced the citation from the bibtex file above to show what the bib file contains. Can someone please point out where I am going wrong? Thanks very much. The following is the log: This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.46.0-2009112820 \write18 enabled.

Flow chart does no longer put comments under connections
by berend＠pobox.com 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Hi All, I'm using ConTeXt on an Ubuntu 9.10 system. $ texexec --version TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD The log file says: This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6) (format=cont-en 2009.8.3) 1 DEC 2009 15:10 ConTeXt ver: 2008.05.21 15:21 MKII fmt: 2009.8.3 int: english/english It appears connection comments do not work in this version. For example the more sophisticated example from here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Flow_Charts ignores the comments. See attachment (if that survives this emailing list). So basically this: \connection[rl] {lowpass1} \comment[t]{$x(t)$} \comment[b]{$X(t)$} does not work. You get the line, but not the comments. So basically two questions: 1. This used to work (Ubuntu 8.04). Is the problem solved in any newer version of ConTeXt? 2. If so, is there a way I can upgrade from within Ubuntu? -- All the best, Berend de Boer

About \version[temporary]
by Otared Kavian 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Hi all, I have a question which can be elementary, but nevertheless it has some importance… When using cross references, one can somehow « visualize » the list of the cross references on each page with the command \version[temporary] However, in mkii at least, the list of the references is placed at the top of the page in the right margin and this is not very convenient when proof reading, especially in mathematical articles. It would be more handy to have each reference in the left (or right) margin of the line where it is defined or where it is invoked with the command « \in ». However I didn't manage to understand how this behaviour can be changed (various attempts with \setuplist[references] had no effect). (By the way, in mkiv, the list is not shown). Can anyone give an insight?

bibliography authoryears problem
by Michael Green 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

When using refcommand=authoryears and Mk IV the first reference is formatted incorrectly. There is the left parenthesis, then a line break, then the rest of the reference followed by the right parenthesis. With MkII it comes out correctly. And in MkIV, every reference except the first is correct. This is similar to a problem reported in another thread, but I don't see how the resolution proposed there applies here. http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20091116.073439.c2549ecb.en.html It isn't a crucial thing for me. I can use MkII when I need to use this citation style. I'm just submitting this as a possible bug report. This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.46.0-2009112820 \write18 enabled. (bib-test.tex ConTeXt ver: 2009.12.01 17:09 MKIV fmt: 2009.12.1 int: english/ english I'm attaching three files: the source, the bibliography, and the pdf output that I get.

problem with texmf-local on Vista
by Christopher G D Tipper 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Hi, I am a user of Context from the old days, and usually don't need much help installing the software. However, I am needing to use Contextminimals for the first time, as Miktex 2.8 has dropped Context support. My problem is that I have a lot of my own setups and personal fonts and Contextminimals seems to have some problem dealing with local setups.

Re: [NTG-context] bibliography authoryears problem
by Michael Green 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

I should have mentioned that there's a similar problem with refcommand=authoryear (my previous post concerned refcommand=authoryears). Using Mk IV, the first citation is preceded with a new line. Mk II behaves appropriately. And all citations other than the first one are formatted correctly by Mk IV. This is quite similar to the problem I reported with refcommand=authoryears. In both cases, only the first citation is wrong and the error in both cases involves a line break. Perhaps they have a related cause. Happy hunting! mjg Samples are attached.

Help watned for numbered descriptions
by Otared Kavian 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi all, I need help for the following situation: in a maths paper I would like to have Definitions, Lemmas, Theorems, etc, numbered in a sequential way in each section if any, the numbers being set before the header, and also to be able to refer to them through cross references. For instance, when there is indeed at least a section, in section 1, I would like to have something like 1.1 Definition. Here is the text of the definition in slanted style. … some text… 1.2 Lemma. Here is the text of the lemma in slanted style. …some text… 1.3 Theorem. Here is the text of the theorem in slanted style. …some text… 1.4 Corollary. Here is the text of the corollary in slanted style. And if there is no section at all: 1. Definition. Here is the text of the definition in slanted style. … some text… 2. Lemma. Here is the text of the lemma in slanted style. …some text… 3. Theorem. Here is the text of the theorem in slanted style. …some text… 4. Corollary. Here is the text of the corollary in slanted style. One way would be to define 4 descriptions or enumerations with \definedescription or \defineenumeration but then I don't know how to have numbers incremented in a sequential way in all these descriptions. Another issue with this approach would be that then if one wants to have for example a Conjecture or a Guess, one has to define a new description or enumeration. Has anyone run into such a situation? The example below shows what I need to do (but actually I wasn't able to add the section number as a prefix to the number…). Best regards: OK %%%% begin \newcounter\Lemmacount \setcounter\Lemmacount1 \def\Lemmanumber% {\global\increment\Lemmacount {\bf \Lemmacount.~}} \def\startLemma#1% {\blank \Lemmanumber~{\bf #1.} \start\sl} \def\stopLemma% {\blank \stop} \starttext Some text before the numbered descriptions start. \startLemma{Definition} This is the first numbered definition; it's short. \stopLemma Here some more text\dots and then a lemma: \startLemma{Lemma} This is another numbered definition. It's long enough to wrap around onto more than one line, so as to show that these can be numbered and contain as well blank lines and formulas \startformula a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \stopformula And some comment after the formula. \stopLemma And here is the remainder of the text\dots \stoptext %%%% end

inothermargin overlaps

Hi all, I've been using \inmargin to put some stuff in the margin of my text, but when I use multiple \inmargin's close together, the stuff in the margin will overlap.

Visualizing cross references
by Otared Kavian 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

I am not sure whetehr this message got through or not, so I am posting it again: Hi all, I have a question which can be elementary… When using cross references, one can somehow « visualize » the list of the cross references on each page with the command \version[temporary] However, in mkii at least, the list of the references is placed at the top of the page in the right margin and this is not very convenient when proof reading, especially in mathematical articles. It would be more handy to have each reference in the left (or right) margin of the line where it is defined or where it is invoked with the command « \in ». However I didn't manage to understand how this behaviour can be changed (various attempts with \setuplist[references] had no effect). (By the way, in mkiv, the list is not shown). Can anyone give an insight? Thanks in advance: OK

Problem with hanging punctuation - a bug?
by Tomas Bures 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Dear all, I've noticed some strange behavior of hanging punctuation (protrusion). The hyphens in hyphenated words are sometimes protruded and sometimes not. I wasn't able to find out the rule, but I managed to reduce the problem to having just one paragraph that repeats several times in the document. You may notice that the last two paragraphs do not have the hyphens protruded. In my original document, I'm using Minion Pro, however, I was able to reproduce this strange behavior with Pagella as well. I'm attaching PDF showing this behavior. The contex source file is below. Please, does anyone know how to fix this strange behavior? I would like to keep the protrusion as it makes the whole document better aligned. Thank you very much.

How to not gobble space after a command
by Matthijs Kooijman 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hi all, I'm working with a few custom macros to simplify typing a bit, like: \def\VHDL{\small{VHDL}} However, when I use this macro in text, like \VHDL this, it gobbles the space after it. I've seen some references that say to solve this by writing \VHDL{} instead, but that is of course very unpretty. I've tried to put all kinds of stuff ({}, \mbox{}, \obeyedspace, etc.) inside the \VHDL macro, but it seems the space is already gone there, so that didn't work. (Note that just putting a space inside the macro won't work, for cases where I use \VHDL, like this) It seems that latex has an xspace package that does some guesswork about whether a space is required, but it looks mightily scary. Does ConTeXt provide for any way to solve this problem in a nice way? Or is this just so fundamental in TeX that there is no real solution? Gr. Matthijs

Strange behaviour of indentation

Dear all, I have some strange problem with indentation. I'm trying to typeset text with some verses. I use indentation in the text, however I would like to suppress it below the verse. So, inside the macro for verses, I use: indenting[next] This works fine, however for some strange reason, the indentation of the text paragraph isn't suppressed at some cases. The macro I use for the verses is a bit more compliated, but I managed to reduce the problem to the simple example below. The first 7 pairs of quote and line are fine, then the text line is indented although it shouldn't be. (Please see the attached PDF.) Please, does anyone know what to do with this problem?

Troubles with columnsets and MacTeX 2009
by No? 29 Nov '09

29 Nov '09

Hi, I've been having issues with columns and \start(stop)bodymatter statements since I updated MacTeX to 2009. Here is a sample of code which works fine on MacTeX 2008 (tlmgr update'ed) version, and which crashes on MacTeX 2009. In both cases, the code was compiled using TeXShop in "ConTeXT" mode. This was tested on another Mac and the results are the same. Note that if you comment out the \start(stop)bodymatter statements in the TeX code, it actually compiles, but the text is missing (that is, only the titles of the sections show up in the PDF!). In the end: # Scenario 1: MacTeX 2008: everything is fine # Scenario 2: MacTeX 2008, *bodymatter statements commented out: everything is fine # Scenario 3: MacTeX 2009: code won't compile. Error message listed below # Scenario 4: MacTeX 2009, *bodymatter statements commented out: compilation OK, but no text in the PDF except for the section titles I am running Snow Leopard, and I have been using MacTeX for ages, and up to now, everything was fine with ConTeXT. I would really appreciate help! I hope the information I included is sufficient. Thank you very much!

Problem with the 'scrp-cjk.lua'
by Yanrui Li 29 Nov '09

29 Nov '09

Hi Hans, In the *hanzi* part of scrp-cjk.lua, there is: local injectors = { -- [previous] [current] ... ... ... full_width_close = { ... ... ... chinese = nobreak_shrink_break_stretch, ... ... ... This causes that lines can not be broken after some Chinese punctuations in 'full_width_close' category. I think it should be: local injectors = { -- [previous] [current] ... ... ... full_width_close = { ... ... ... chinese = stretch_break, ... ... ... The same problem also arises here: local injectors = { -- [previous] [current] ... ... ... half_width_close = { ... ... ... chinese = nobreak_shrink_break_stretch, ... ... ... It seems like it should be: local injectors = { -- [previous] [current] ... ... ... full_width_close = { ... ... ... chinese = stretch_break, ... ... ... -- Best regards, Li Yanrui

new beta
by Hans Hagen 29 Nov '09

29 Nov '09

Hi, i uploaded a beta with a few fixes. i also replaced the mtxrun.cmd etc file by executables (windows stubs only); on tex live we have a call chain: *.exe -> *.cmd|bat -> whatever and we don't want that many calls (and files) so i copied the regular runner and patched it into a mtxrun (.exe) this means that users who run mtxrun from an editor (default scite setup) should change mtxrun.cmd into mtxrun.exe (the same is true for luatools, texexec and texmfstart, where the later is actually replaced by mxrun) (btw, if you want a stub to for instance "mtxrun --script font" then you can just copy mtxrun.exe to mtx-fonts.exe and have a more direct call Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
