Context index and sorting question
by sjoerd siebinga 10 Jan '05

10 Jan '05

Hi all, I am currently working on a dictionary with multiple indices of older language stages like, Old English, Old Norse, Greec, Sanskrit, Hittite, etc. Most of these languages have different characters, accents and sorting rules than English. In enco-ini.tex I found the \definesortkey command, but it is not entirely clear to me how I could use this command for the individual indices instead of for the overall language (in my case english). Or even if this is possible at all? Could someone tell me how I can use the \definesortkey command or for that matter any other ConTeXt mechanism to define sortrules for individual indices? Regards Sjoerd PS why does Texutil strip accents \' \~ \` \" \^ but not \= ?

layers and papersize
by Tom Fossen 10 Jan '05

10 Jan '05

This is probably a beginners question. While trying to understand the layer-mechanism I made a drawing which is meant as a background for a schedule in a magazine. I add the information within this drawing using the 'register' option I found on page 263 of the Metafun manual. Here is the example in a minimal form: \starttext \definelayer[rooster] \startuseMPgraphic{list} path p, s ; p := unitsquare scaled 3cm superellipsed 0.84 ; s := flex ((2.5cm,3.0cm), (10.0cm,3.0cm), (6.5cm,-0.5cm)) ; draw p withpen pencircle scaled 5pt withcolor .625white ; draw s withpen pencircle scaled 3pt withcolor .625white ; register ("da",2.4cm,2.4cm,(.3cm,2.8cm)) ; register ("name",5.6cm,0.6cm,(5.4cm,3.5cm)) ; register ("who",6cm,3cm,(3.4cm,2.8cm)) ; register("color",1.5cm,0.5cm,(7.6cm,-0.6cm)) ; \stopuseMPgraphic \setMPlayer[rooster][da]{\framed [width=\MPlayerwidth,height=\MPlayerheight,align=right] {pos 1}} \setPlayer[rooster][name]{\framed [ [width=\MPlayerwidth,height=\MPlayerheight] {pos 2}} \setMPlayer[rooster][who]{\framed [width=\MPlayerwidth,height=\MPlayerheight,align=right] {pos 3}} \setMPlayer[rooster][color]{\framed [width=\MPlayerwidth,height=\MPlayerheight] {pos 4}} \getMPlayer[rooster] {\useMPgraphic{list}} \stoptext This works for the standard papersize. But I want this to work in a magazine on A5. So I add: \setuppapersize [A5][A4] \setuparranging [2UP,rotated,doublesided] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \setuplayout[margin=0pt,width=middle] followed by the fragment above. But now all of the texts ("pos x") end up somewhere in the left corner of the page. Only the drawing is on its right place. I tried to experiment with adding 'position= on' or 'off' to the 'definelayer' command. No difference. Where are the misunderstandings on my side? tom fossen

OmniOutliner>ConTeXt Export plugin available
by Adam Lindsay 10 Jan '05

10 Jan '05

[apologies for the cross-post.] Hi all, My export plugin for OmniOutliner is now available for use with both OmniOutliner Professional and Standard: <http://oo2contml.sourceforge.net/> It exports structural markup to an XML file that's able to be processed directly by the ConTeXt TeX macro package. (That is to say, you can simply type this at the command line: texexec --pdf MyOutline.xml ...and you get a pdf.) There's a lot of documentation (but basic operation is really simple). Omni's support people have asked that I take plugin support questions off the OO-Users list, so there's a support mailing list at the above link as well. I'm also soliciting feedback on further directions for this plugin. I can imagine three possible directions: 1) Output in ConTeXt's TeX syntax, 2) Output a simplified structural XHTML (OO3's current offerings, while gorgeous, are not so easy for hacking up a basic web page for use with your own CSS), 3) Input the ConTeXt-XML format for basic round-tripping from Outline to ConTeXt to Outline. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Hi Willy, [cc to context list] Long ago we mailed about acrobat messing up colors when using transparencies. Well, it looks like it happens again.

Can you test this on your machine as well?

optional arguments, if(nth)argument

This time, a macro with optional arguments and \if...argument : \def\SkillField{\dodoubleempty\doSkillField} \def\doSkillField[#1][#2]#3{\bTR\bTD #3 \iffirstargument\hfill (#1)\fi % don't print when no optional argument \eTD \bTD \ifsecondargument % if second optional arg is provided \definefield[#2][line][Skill][#1]\field[#2] \else % if no second optional arg \definefield[#3][line][Skill][#3]\field[#3] \fi \eTD\eTR} e.g. \SkillField[+8][Aergern]{Ärgern} % works \SkillField[+1]{Labern} % does nothing instead of "else" \SkillField{Testen} % does "\hfill (#1)", but should do nothing Apparently, the \if...argument ... \else don't work as they should.

function that purges 8 bit text?
by Henning Hraban Ramm 07 Jan '05

07 Jan '05

Hi there! I try to typeset a roleplaying character sheet as PDF form; it contains a table of skills, each line is a \SkillField after this def: \def\SkillField#1#2{\bTR\bTD #1\hfill (#2) \eTD \bTD \definefield[#1][line][SkillSetup][#2]\field[#3]\eTD\eTR} e.g. \SkillField{Climbing}{+8} becomes a table line like: Climbing (+8) [+8] Now there are a lot of skills that contain e.g. umlauts, so that \definefield[#1] fails. I don't like to introduce a third parameter. Is there a possibility to strip all invalid chars from a string, so that \SkillField{Erzählen}{0} can define a field named "Erzaehlen" or "Erzhlen" or "Erzahlen"? (Sorry, I can't program in TeX.) If this is not possible, I'll try an optional parameter. Grüßlis vom Hraban! --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://contextgarden.net

Hello, bib module of 30-8-2004 produces no bibliography list on \placepublications with ConTeXt 2004.12.17 (last stable) and/or latest beta. The workaround is to use \setuplist[pubs][criterium=all] somewhere in the setup. Can you please make including the whole bibliography make the default?

algorithms style : need \starttyping with TeX and math feature
by Maurice Diamantini 03 Jan '05

03 Jan '05

Bonjour à tous, I'm trying to white some algorithms in natural language (versus pseudo-computing langage) I need to keep some "typing" for write space (i.e. indentation of text) while being able to white TeX commands (with \xxx{yyy}) and math (like $y_u(t)$) In fact I'd like some LaTeX algorithms style like feature. I could do some recursive \startitemize...\stopitemize... but it is two much verbose, so I thought looking at the ConTeXt "typing" system Also, perhaps my request is simply an option of \startlines which keep not only the lines break, but also the first spaces of each line (in a verbatim font fors these space) Thank you for any help! -- Maurice Diamantini

Sidebars and versals Oh my!
by John Culleton 03 Jan '05

03 Jan '05

Been working my way through the examples in the Columns Manual, the Details Manual etc. and had some thoughts on additional features. Versals come in many different flavors, of which the conventional dropped cap is just one. Even that facility could use a tweak. Conventionally, to provide a transition from the dropped cap to the normal text, the rest of the first word, or the next two or three words, or sometimes the entire first line is put in a small caps typeface. I cobbled up my own macro for this for a particular book I typeset: \def\drop#1#2{% \noindent {\head #1} \vskip -20pt \noindent \hangindent=1.7em \hangafter=-2 {\sc #2} } But this is not the only type of versal. Sometimes a large capital letter (perhaps in italics) is centered on the top of the textblock thus: \def\drop#1#2{\noindent\hglue .4\hsize{\tfd#1}{\sc#2}} Now there are other variations seen in fine books, such as a dropped initial cap partly or completely protruding into the left margin, often colored gray. The first macro above could be modified for a specific case. A general macro is more challenging. A matter of continuing interest is the sidebar, which can be placed in the outer margin, or flush left or right in a paragraph, or partly protruding into the outer margin. Usually these sidebars will have a gray background and often have a border. It appears that creating the sidebar separately as a pdf graphic and then importing and placing it would be the easiest way home. Context already has mechanisms for flowing or wrapping text around a graphic. How well the wraparound feature works when more than one short paragraph is involved I have not tested yet. In any case I will continue to explore these layout features, and if anything interesting shows up I will share. -- John Culleton Short list of publishing/marketing books: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf

\coupledocument
by Willi Egger 31 Dec '04

Hi, At the moment I am trying to achieve an interactive document, where the sectionheading of the paper-version are linked to corresponding sectionheading in the screen document. The code is based on an example as provided by David Arnold. In the attached example I do not get interactivity with coloured sectionheadings. When compiling the original example from David then I get only interactive jumps from the sectionheadings in the paper-version to the screen document. But there is no way to jump back to the paper-version i.e. the interactivity is not active in the screen document. It seems, that there is something broken in the \coupledocument command?

Mac testers wanted
by Adam Lindsay 30 Dec '04

30 Dec '04

Hi all, Sorry, but I'm announcing another Mac-only thing to the ConTeXt list. I'd like a few testers on an export script. OmniOutliner Pro makes for an interesting structured editor, and I've written an export plug-in that outputs ContML code that can easily be run through ConTeXt. I could use a couple savvy MacOSX ConTeXters to help verify it's behaving as expected and that it's usable. It means running a (99% stable) beta application (OOPro) that won't be free in the long term, so if that offends your sensibilities, turn away now... (My plug-in and ConTeXt module will be free, of course.) If you're interested in helping out, though, please send me a message off-list, and make sure you have OmniOutliner Pro beta installed: <http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnioutliner/beta/pro/> I'll be sending out a package in a few days.

To do so, I patched \dodoinsertpages so that it is possible to give a start= and stop= value for the pages (so that you can include, say, the pages from 4 to 86 only): \newcounter\currentip \def\dodoinsertpages[#1][#2][#3]% {\bgroup \dontcomplain \getfiguredimensions[#1]% \getparameters[\??ip][\c!start=1,\c!stop=\noffigurepages,\c!width=\!!zeropoint,#3]% \doifinset0{#2}{\null\page}% % \write16{Should insert from \@@ipstart\space to \@@ipstop}% \let\currentip\@@ipstart% \decrement\currentip \doloop {\increment\currentip\relax % \write16{Inserting page \currentip}% \dofilterpage{#1}\currentip \doifinset\currentip{#2}{\null\page}% \ifnum\currentip=\@@ipstop\exitloop \fi }% \egroup Hans may consider adding such a feature to the default distribution, possibly making it work with the n= option which is used by the standard stuff ... Anyway, my problem is that as soon as I get past page 600 or so, I get hash size exceeded fatal errors. A braindead solution that allows me to get a few more pages is to patch \calculateexternalfigure to define less csnames, eg by commenting %\setxvalue{\@@efobjectname\c!n}{\number\nofinsertpages}% and changing %\xdef\noffigurepages{\number\getvalue{\@@efobjectname\c!n}}% \xdef\noffigurepages{\number\nofinsertpages}% but still still is not enough (it's a nearly 1000 pages book). Ideas on how to solve the problem (MiKTeX does not allow increasing the hash size)? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta

bookmark & UTF-8 accented characters
by VnPenguin 27 Dec '04

27 Dec '04

Hi all, I have problem with bookmark when I use Vietnamese UTF-8 input encoding. By using \placebookmarks[chapter,section] I got a bookmark with TeX codes in chapter and section names instead of UTF-8 string like in document. (see the shot http://people.vnoss.org/~vnpenguin/pub/bookmark.png) In LaTeX, IIRC, there is a command \texorpdfstring{st1}{st2} of hyperref package which allows me to use st1 for the content and st2 (without accented characters) for bookmarks. Yes, I see the using a non-accented string for vietnamese has no sense, but this is a "workaround" for us for this moment :) Any solution for this problem ? Thank you in advance, Q. NGUYEN-DAI PS: I have done research around mailing archive but unfortunately I not found the solution yet.

(Con)TeX(t), Unicode and accented characters
by Mojca Miklavec 21 Dec '04

21 Dec '04

Here's a short version of my question: How do I enable unicode encoded characters (just normal accented latin characters) to be typeset in (any font) in ConTeXt, like the \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} in LaTeX? And here the long one: ************************************************************************ I don't really understand how accented characters are typeset in (Con)TeX(t). One of the main reasons for switching to LaTeX (maybe 8 years ago) someone mentioned was: "You don't have to worry about accented characters. You can make any accented character and it will work all over the world." (We actually did have lots of problems with MS Word and web browsers at that time.) And it was true. But when I switched to ConTeXt I came against that problem again. In LaTeX I used \v{c}\v{s}\v{z} at first, later \usepackage{csz} ... "c"s"z (which works pretty much the same as "a"o"u in German) and finally (when someone told me about that possibility) \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} ... čšž As I didn't know how to use any other the font, I always used CMR, the default, so I didn't have problems with exotic fonts either. ************************************************************************ But here we come to ConTeXt. For the German "Umlaut", \"{a}\"{o}\"{u} (äöü), this was satisfactory: \useencoding[windows-1250] \mainlanguage[de] For \v{c}\v{s}\v{z} (čšž) this wasn't the case, so a proposed solution from another ConTeXt user was: % output=pdf -translate-file=cp1250cs \setupbodyfont [csr,ams,rm] What I don't really understand: why did the Chech TUG have to design *their own font*, csr, (or made changes to cmr) if accented characters worked perfectly already in plain TeX? The second problem: This works under Windows when typesetting in code page 1250. How can I use accented characters if text is typeset in Unicode (or latin2) in Linux? The third problem: How do I typeset '\v{c}' in some other font? I do understand that it may not function in just any font since someone has to tell the computer how the accented characters are built, but as long as \v{c} works, there's no reason for \useencoding[utf8] and then continuing with unicode encoded characters not to produce the desired result. Thank you, Mojca

How to get default Dutch language Context in TeXShop on Macos X
by Robert Kroon 19 Dec '04

19 Dec '04

Hi, Recently I've installed Gerben Wierda's teTeX distributon incl. ConTeXt on my iMac (Macos X, 10.3.6). Now I'm trying to learn ConTeXt. I'm marking up my documents in TeXShop, version 1.34. I can typeset small ConTeXt documents and generate PDF-files as long as the type setting commands are in English. However, I would like to use Dutch type setting commands like: \starttekst Dit is een test \stoptekst When I typeset this file from within TexShop I get following output and errors <Begin screen message> TeXExec 5.2.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004 executable : pdfetex format : cont-nl inputfile : Context-les1 output : pdftex interface : nl current mode : none TeX run : 1 This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.20a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.3) (/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/natural.tcx) kpathsea: Running mktexfmt cont-nl.fmt fmtutil: no info for format `cont-nl'.

TeXFont Problem
by Fergal Grimes 19 Dec '04

Hi, I'm a TeX/ConTeXt beginner and I'm having trouble installing a new font. I just purchased Sabon from Adobe and I'm following the installation instructions at http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html. The problem is that when I run TeXFont it just copies the AFM and PFB files into the directory tree at C:\Program Files\TeXLive\texmf-local\fonts. (I'm using TeXLive distribution for Win32.) However, for some reason it does not generate the TFM and VF files. I searched the archives of this list and notice that this problem was raised by chabah5 at hotmail.com on Thu Aug 12 13:21:56 2004, but got no answer. Can anyone help me?
