Hallo, I have a little problem which I can not solve. The following example works with the definition of \broad in position 1 and it fails in position 2. ------------------------------------- % Position 1 % \def\broad{5*broad} \defineitemgroup[Tst] \setupitemgroup[Tst][1][n,\broad ] % Position 2 \def\broad{5*broad} \starttext \startTst \item Test \stopTst \stoptext ------------------------------------- Why is this? And how can I make it work in position 2? Wolfgang

Problems with metapost in texlive 2009
by Ram Potluri 24 Apr '10

24 Apr '10

I had a working installation of texlive 2007 on my opensuse 11.0 machine. I had metapost working nicely converting my *.mp files into *.pdf files. Yesterday, I upgraded to texlive 2009 that is available at http://software.opensuse.org/search/download?base=openSUSE%3A11.0&fil...<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://software.opensuse.org/search/downlo…> I installed all the upgrades of the following packages: texlive texlive-bin-tools texlive-bin-metapost texlive-bin-latex texlive-bin texlive-tools texlive-metapost texlive-latex texlive-context texlive-latex-doc To test my installation, I ran the command mptopdf on some mp files that I had successfully converted to pdf on the earlier installation. Here is the message I am seeing for one such file (blk.mp): ram@linux-94ai:~/Desktop> mptopdf blk.mp MTXrun | kpse fallback with progname 'context' initialized in 0.12 seconds MPtoPDF 1.3.3 : running 'mpost --mem=mpost --tex=latex blk.mp' This is MetaPost, version 1.208 (kpathsea version 5.0.0) ! I can't find file `blk.mp'. <*> blk.mp Please type another input file name: You see, the file blk.mp is very much present in the directory (~/ Desktop). Could someone please help me? Thanks in advance. Best wishes, Ram.

page-break
by Jörg Hagmann 23 Apr '10

23 Apr '10

Dear list members, My biggest problem have always been seemingly arbitrary page breaks occuring every now and then in larger documents; and because I don't see a pattern, I can't create a minimal example. But maybe you can make a suggestion based on the following: The section below produces a page break seen in http://www.ogbasel.ch/version-1.pdf. If the line "\page[no]" is inserted, the page break occurs as shown in http://www.ogbasel.ch/version-page-no.pdf Mark IV, on linux and Leopard Context version 2010.03.02 12:34 The font is Gentium at 10.5 Thanks, Jörg -------------snip------------------ {\bf Grauammer} -- {\it Bruant proyer} -- Emberiza calandra: Am 28.2. konnte LEU einen Sänger in der PCA feststellen.

Problem with \doifelse testing of UTF-8 chars
by Jaroslav Hajtmar 23 Apr '10

23 Apr '10

Hello, I have problem with testing of strings through \doifelse. I am loading data from external CSV file. CSV file is UTF-8 encoding. Data from external file I am reading to ConTeXt macro and I want compare content of macro (it is one utf-8 character) and other character as per example: (\onecharfromcsvfile contains one character from external CSV file) % I compare e.g. "m" character and content of macro \onecharfromcsvfile \def\result{\doifelse{m}{\onecharfromcsvfile}{true}{false} } \result is however always false When CSV file is CP-1250 encoding then macro does work right as well as classical TeX macro: \def\result{\if m\onecharfromcsvfile true\else false \fi} My question is: Just how modify macro as to work right when CSV file is UTF-8 encoding. Thanx Jaroslav PS: I was working up until now only with CP-1250 encoding, but when I started with LuaTeX (MKIV), then I have to use UTF-8. (MKIV dont work corectly with external CP-1250 files).
