ConTeXt mkiv and Drupal
by Otared Kavian 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

Dear Contextators, Has anyone tried to process TeX files written for ConTeXt mkiv in Drupal (http://drupal.org/)? To be more precise, there exists a so-called filter DruTeX (http://drupal.org/project/drutex) which can process LaTeX files for viewing them in a web page, but since my TeX files are written for ConTeXt, I wonder if there is a simple way to do the same in Drupal with ConTeXt. Or maybe I am going the wrong direction? Should I export through mkiv my TeX files to some other format than TeX for being understood by Drupal? Actually my documents are essentially one page each, without any complicated layout or graphics: there is only some text, and items within two or three sets of \startitemize, \stopitemize. But they do contain maths and I would like to have them on the web pages. Thanks in advance for any insight. Best regards: OK

SciTE & ConTeXt
by S Barmeier 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

Hello, I tried to follow the PRAGMA document for setting up SciTE to run with ConTeXt. The "Tools" menu seems to recognize that I am trying to process a ConTeXt file and the syntax highlighting seems to fit as well. However, when trying to Compile or Build, SciTE tells me >mtxrun --autogenerate --script context --autopdf --pdf myfile.tex sh: mtxrun: not found >Exit code: 127 When running mtxrun from the terminal or from the shell (by entering sh in the terminal) it works fine. My $PATH variable is set to find mtxrun (and context). How come SciTE can't find it? Many thanks. Severin P.S.: Does the --autopdf option try to automatically open the output? If so, how can I change the default to evince?

sorting bibliography
by Yury G. Kudryashov 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

Hi! Could you please tell me how to sort bibliogrpahy in ConTeXt Mark IV? I've tried \setuppublications[sorttype=author,sort=yes] but this doesn't work. It seems that bibl-tra.lua contains two compare() functions. Which one is used (my Lua knowledge is far from perfect)? P.S.: I'm ready to convert my bibtex db to another format if this will help.

Tabs inside \starttyping \stoptyping

Hello again, I am using the latest beta (20.11.2010 12:15) and I've found that a file with a [tab] inside \starttyping...\stoptyping results in an error. Example: \starttext \starttyping Some typing. \stoptyping \stoptext Note the [tab] before "Some". This results in error: !

Mojca, Thanks for trying to help, Here's what I do know so far. . . 1. Yes I bought TUG Lucida and have installed the fonts in c:\localtexmf and done fndb update via MikTeX 2.9 wizard. 2.

Problem with expansion tables (macros with variable numbers of paramaters)
by Jaroslav Hajtmar 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

Hello ConTeXist... I work on my first module (t-scancsv) which allows to process external CSV files. Now I have a problem with the processing of tables that require expansion line data. Unable to discover why my macro is not capable of handling the expanded rows. It seems to me that the macros with variable number of parameters work differently from the macros with a fixed number of parameters. I attach a minimal example of what problems occur in the processing of expanded lines. I need to write a macro \doloopaction with a variable number of parameters that would work as well as macro \doloopfromto, which has 3 fixed parameters. In addition, I attach a demonstration of the failing macro \DOLOOPFROMTO (variable number of parameters), but seems to me the same as the macro \doloopfromto. Someone help me find out what the problem is?? Thanx Jaroslav Here is my example: \def\FirstName{\recurselevel. MyFirstName} \def\Surname{\recurselevel. MySurname} \def\Id{\recurselevel. MyId} \def\lineaction{\expanded{\bTR\bTD \Id \eTD\bTD \FirstName \eTD\bTD \Surname \eTD\eTR}} \def\tab{\bTR\bTD \Id \eTD\bTD \FirstName \eTD\bTD \Surname \eTD\eTR} \def\xtab{\expanded{\bTR\bTD \Id \eTD\bTD \FirstName \eTD\bTD \Surname \eTD\eTR}} \def\bT{\bTABLE\bTR\bTD ID\eTD\bTD FirstName\eTD\bTD Surname\eTD\eTR} \def\eT{\eTABLE} \def\doloopfromto#1#2#3{% \dostepwiserecurse{#1}{#2}{1}{#3} }% \def\doloopaction{\dotriplegroupempty\doloopAction} \def\doloopAction#1#2#3{% \doifelsenothing{#1} {\doloopfromto{1}{10}{\lineaction}%0 par., } {\doifelsenothing{#2} {\doloopfromto{1}{10}{#1}% 1 par } {\doifelsenothing{#3} {\doloopfromto{1}{#2}{#1}%2 par } {\doloopfromto{#2}{#3}{#1}%3 par }}} } \def\DOLOOPFROMTO{\dotriplegroupempty\DOLOOPFROMTOAction} \def\DOLOOPFROMTOAction#1#2#3{% \doifelsenothing{#1} {%\doloopfromto{1}{10}{\lineaction}%0 par., \dostepwiserecurse{1}{10}{1}{\lineaction} } {\doifelsenothing{#2} {%\doloopfromto{1}{10}{#1}% 1 par \dostepwiserecurse{1}{10}{1}{#1} } {\doifelsenothing{#3} {%\doloopfromto{1}{#2}{#1}%2 par \dostepwiserecurse{1}{#2}{1}{#1} } {%\doloopfromto{#2}{#3}{#1}%3 par \dostepwiserecurse{#2}{#3}{1}{#1} }}} } \starttext 1.

I am attempting to move from LaTeX to ConTeXt. I hope my question is not too simple. I am trying to see how to go about creating a master document using context. I have searched the mail archives and other documentation I could find but have found no information as to how to do this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi all, I'd like to use Concrete fonts (and Euler) with ConTeXt. Is it possible? How do I do it? (I'd prefer MkIV.) Thanks in advance -- Marcin Borkowski (http://mbork.pl)
