Re: [NTG-context] Unresolved third-party modules

Hi, Wolfgang, I believe it doesn't matter what parameter is, because the files are downloaded successfully. I use not first-setup.sh, but my own Windows installer. One thing that is different from the last time I updated my Context (more than year ago), is texmf-modules folder in the root. So, now the path to fullpage is D:\contextminimal\texmf-modules\tex\context\third\fullpage while it was D:\contextminimal\texmf-context\tex\context\third\fullpage Maybe texmf-modules is not registered in the tree for some reason? Maybe, it needs a separate environment variable set, e.g. TEXMODULES?? Regards, Vyatcheslav

toppath
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hello, there was a discussion about 'toppath' or 'pathrelativetome'. Is 'toppath:' prefix working? Or what other way is to refer to the path of the current file (i.e. the file I'm referring from)? The following code doesn't work - "t-Hello.mkiv" is not found although it's located in the same directory as "t-TopPath.mkiv"; the "t-TopPath.mkiv" is compiled from ONE LEVEL UP. So e.g. let's have: c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-TopPath.mkiv c:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Test\t-Hello.mkiv and let's switch to current (working) directory to: c:\Lukas\ConTeXt and call: context.exe Test\t-TopPath.mkiv In this situation compilation fails. How to make it work? TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

Standalone "current"
by Bill Meahan 29 Nov '12

What, if anything, is the difference between the version of ConTeXt in the TeXLive distribution and the version one gets when running first-setup.sh --context=current --modules=all ? -- Bill Meahan Westland, Michigan USA

No header and no page-number on empty pages
by "H. Özoguz" 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hi there, there are some possibilities for getting empty pages in a book, f.e. if a new chapter begins (and by settings it may only begin on pages with odd pagenumber). In these cases I want the page-number and the headers to disappear on the empty page, it should be totally empty, if no text is in it. How to achieve that? Thanks Huseyin

\setupbreakpoints[compound] does not work?
by "H. Özoguz" 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hi, in the following example I use \setbreakpoints[compound], I understood, that word-breaking would be made (or preferred) at hyphens. There could be a perfect line break at the hyphen of "-CC", but there is no break, and instead the complete word "AA-BB-CC" is printed, then partially in the margin. \setbreakpoints[compound] \showframe \version[temporary] \starttext .......................................................................................................................AA-BB-CC. And the next sentence. \stoptext Why that does not work? Huseyin

\cldcommand
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hello, the following shortening "\ctxlua{commands.doif" to "\cldcommand{doif" doesn't work as I'd expect, although it should be equal: ---- \starttext A \ctxlua{commands.doif(true)}{T} % Gives "T" - that's OK \cldcommand{doif(true)}{t} % Gives nothing; why? B \stoptext ---- Probably very basic question... What am I doing wrong? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

But I guess this isn't the cause, since ConTeXt deals directly with the fonts. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

mkiv only installation
by Jörg Hagmann 28 Nov '12

28 Nov '12

I was under the impression that sh ./first-setup.sh --modules=all engine=luatex should install a "minimal" minimal context (without mkii). But that doesn't seem to be true. Has something changed, or am I mistaken? Thanks, Jörg

Dear all, is there a simple way to convince context to put small caps in italic? Thanks.
