Using ConTeXt ver: 2012.11.14 11:37 MKIV, the following does not produce a table of content, in fact, it doesn't produce a *.tuc file at all: \setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape] \setuparranging[2SIDE] \starttext \placelist \startchapter[title=chapter] \input knuth \stopchapter \stoptext

[luatex-plain] loading patterns
by Philipp Gesang 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

Hi all! (I assume this is the appropriate list for questions regarding luatex-plain.) I am trying to enable the Russian hyphenation patterns. The demo code below works with luatex.fmt but not luatex-plain.fmt (both from tex live). More precisely, after loading the hyphenation patterns for, say, *Latin* I get proper hyphenation. Now when I attempt the same with *Russian*, nothing is hyphenated. (As lang.patterns(id) correctly returns the patterns in both cases, I guess something is missing after updating tex.language.) Any thoughts? Can someone reproduce this? Philipp ================================================================= \def\loadpatterns#1{% \directlua{ local pattern_source = kpse.find_file"#1" texio.write_nl("* loading patterns from file " .. pattern_source) local fh = io.open(kpse.find_file"#1") local new_patterns = fh:read"*a" fh:close() local new_language = lang.new() lang.patterns(new_language, new_patterns) tex.language = lang.id(new_language) %print(lang.patterns(new_language)) }% } % ····························································· % \showhyphens{Циолковский} %% no pattern yet, so both without \showhyphens{Oenothea} %% hyphenation % ····························································· % \loadpatterns{hyph-ru.pat.txt} %% Russian \showhyphens{Циолковский} %% wrong with luatex-plain % ····························································· % \loadpatterns{hyph-la.pat.txt} %% Latin \showhyphens{Oenothea} %% correct with either % ····························································· % \bye

Tolerance and Stretch versus Protrusion and Ugliness
by "H. Özoguz" 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

Hi there, at the moment I use for my book \definepapersize[MyBook][A5] \setuppapersize[MyBook][A5] \usemodule [simplefonts][size=11pt] \setmainfont[Times New Roman][expansion=quality,protrusion=quality] \setupalign [hanging] \setuptolerance[stretch] \tolerance 70 Is it suitable to use tolerance and stretch in this way together? Of course I want a nice type area - but for me that means that I definitely don't want a word written in the margin! (That happens with the default \tolerance 250 (without using stretch). What would you recommend? Are there other values to play with, to get a better result? Thanks Huseyin

[NTG-Context] MetaPost capacity exceeded.
by Alan BRASLAU 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

! MetaPost capacity exceeded, sorry [expansion depth=10000]. I have come across this error previously with run-away \dorecurse loops I now have this message with a document that makes VERY heavy use of MetaPost; I just have too many figures. Is there some way to "flush" the running instance of MetaPost, that is to force MPlib to respawn or something like that? (Of course, I would then have to be careful not to rely on the reuse of any previous MP instances...) Alan

random seed
by Peter Rolf 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

Hi, in one of my documents I use a specific random seed to create a fixed random based graphic (size, color, position). This works fine under Windows (where I 'found' the seed value), but I get a complete different result on my Debian system. Is there a way to get identical results on different OS? Or is the random number generator OS specific? Just wondering... Peter

Managing prefixes in section references
by Jean-Philippe Rey 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

Hi all, I am trying to convince \in to build up a full reference (<chapter number>.<section number>) but can not work it out. Here is my minimal example : % ConTeXt 2012.11.08 MKIV \setuphead[section][sectionsegments=section] \setupreferencestructureprefix[section][number][prefixsegments=2:*] \starttext \chapter{Chapter one} \section[S1]{Section one} This is \in{section}[S1] % displays 1 instead of 1.1 \stoptext What am I doing wrong ? Thanks for your answers. -- Jean-Philippe Rey Professeur - École Centrale Paris jean-philippe.rey(a)ecp.fr 92295 Châtenay-Malabry Cedex - France

Mk IV version of wasysym?
by Pavneet Arora 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

I am trying to use some of the symbols from Roland Waldi's symbols collection in a project. After not getting the minimal example to work, I looked for the 'symb-was.*' file, and came across only this; /opt/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/symb-was.mkii I notice that there doesn't seem to be a .mkiv version of this set. Could this be the problem? The minimal example was simply: \usesymbols[was] \showsymbolset[wasy general] Thanks. -- ----- - Pavneet Arora Waroc Fine Audio + Custom Home Cinema www.waroc.com 416.937.WAROC (9276)
