[OT] Mac Os X 10.3.9
by luigi scarso 19 Mar '10

19 Mar '10

I have an (old, I suppose) Mac pc on my desk. It works, but I don't know anything about it apart that it looks like a *nix from terminal. It has has also Emacs ! I would like to use TeXLive or at least ConTeXt minimals and FontForge but it think I need at least a compiler first... Any help really appreciate. -- luigi

Vim module errors
by Adam C.M. Solove 19 Mar '10

19 Mar '10

Hi all, Has anyone used the vim module recently and I recently installed the third-party vim module for syntax highlighting in my minimal install of ConTeXt MKIV/LuaTeX: ./first-setup.sh --extras="t-vim" context --generate I tried a minimal example from the manual: \starttext \usemodule [vim] \definevimtyping [C] [syntax=c,numbering=on] \startvimcolorscheme [default] \definevimsyntax [Type] [style=boldmono] \definevimsyntax [PreProc] [style=slantedmono] \stopvimcolorscheme \startC #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> void main() { printf("Hello World\n"); return; } \stopC \stoptext You can see the ConTeXt live output (See full output<http://live.contextgarden.net/output.cgi?id=dO7150>) The problem is: ! I can't find file `texweb-vimsyntax.tmp-vimsyntax.tmp'. <to be read again> Looks like the filename munging has some issues. Also, when I manually type in the correct file name, I then get further errors which seem to indicate the source code is not within a literal environment: ! You can't use `macro parameter character #' in horizontal mode. l.1 # include <stdio.h> I have vim installed and accessible on the path, and do have the C syntax. I'm not TeXpert enough to troubleshoot the actual source, does anyone know what might cause this behavior? Thanks, Adam

Unexpected format of reference
by Mikael Persson 19 Mar '10

19 Mar '10

Dear list, the following example gives me unexpected format of the last reference to the section \definereferenceformat[eqref][left={(},right={)}] \starttext \section[sec:test]{Test} We are now in \in{Section}{}[sec:test]. \placeformula[eq:general] \startformula A=B \stopformula In~\eqref[eq:general]\dots We are now in \in{Section}{}[sec:test]. \stoptext The last reference to the section gets the format (1) instead of just 1. I believe this was not so previously. PDF attached. I use an updated MKIV minimals. Best regards, Mikael

problem with TABLE in TABLE

Hello, How can I do the setups for the inner TABLE? Example: \startsetups outer-table \setupTABLE[c][last][width=5cm] \stopsetups \startsetups inner-table \setupTABLE[c][last][width=2cm] \stopsetups \starttext \bTABLE[setups=outer-table] \bTR\bTD bla \eTD\bTD { \bTABLE[setups=inner-table] \bTR\bTD bla \eTD\bTD problem: width is 5cm instead of 2cm \eTD\eTR \eTABLE } \eTD\eTR\eTABLE \stoptext TIA for any hints!

typescripts
by Michael Saunders 18 Mar '10

18 Mar '10

I'm trying to follow the examples and getting surprising results: \definefontfeature[default][mode=node,language=dflt,script=latn,kern=yes,liga=yes,tlig=yes,trep=yes] \definefontfeature[body][default][onum=yes,pnum=yes,protrusion=quality,expansion=quality] \definefontfeature[smallcaps][body][smcp=yes, onum=yes] %I understood this to mean that "body" would inherit "default" and "smallcaps" would inherit "body". \starttypescript [sans] [gillLT] \definefontsynonym[Gill-Light][name:gillsansmtprolight][features=body] \definefontsynonym[Gill-Light-Italic][name:gillsansmtprolightitalic][features=body] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [sans] [gillLT] \definefontsynonym[Sans][Gill-Light][features=body] \definefontsynonym[SansItalic][Gill-Light-Italic][features=body] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [gill] \definetypeface [gillLT] [ss] [sans] [gillLT] [default] [features=body,script=latn,script=grek] \stoptypescript \setupalign[hanging,hz] \setupbodyfont[gillLT,12pt] \ss 1: 1234567890 fi fl ffi ffl \addff{smallcaps} test smallcaps 2: \addff{body} 1234567890 fi fl ffi ffl \addff{smallcaps} test smallcaps In both 1 & 2, ligatures and small caps fail (though the glyphs are in the font). In 1, oldstyle fails.

including movies broken?
by Michail Vidiassov 18 Mar '10

18 Mar '10

Dear All, it seems including movies does not work: \starttext \placefigure[here]{none}{\externalfigure[demo.mov][width=0.7\textwidth, height=.7\textwidth, label=demo]} \stoptext processed with "context test_mov.tex" results in ! LuaTeX error ...text/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/grph-inc.lua:810: bad argument #4 to 'format' (string expected, got nil) under latest Minimals (Mac OS X 10.6). Did end-user interface change or we are (as so often) are in the middle of some integral migration from "used to work somehow" to "it is done the right way finally" via "the best way to test is to release"? Sincerely, Michail

Re: [NTG-context] ntg-context Digest, Vol 69, Issue 95
by Michael Saunders 18 Mar '10

Wolfgang Schuster: > \setupbodyfont[pagella] > > \definefontfeature[smcp][smcp=yes] > \definefontfeature[frac][frac=yes] > > \setuphead[chapter][textstyle=\addfs{frac}\addfs{smcp}] ... This is just an example, but what I think you mean to say by it is that the new command \addfs{} has the behavior I describe, but only for otf features and not for things like switching to semibold or to condensed (and, presumably, even if I'm able to define my own commands for things like semibold, something like: \sb ABC \it DEF would set the DEF at regular weight). Since I've never seen anyone talk about \addfs{}, but only give examples, I'm guessing (but just guessing) that there exists somewhere a list of what otf features are active at any given point, and that this command can add to that list. That's great. I might not need it anytime soon, but I'm just curious---are there other commands of this kind? Maybe something to clear the list? That leaves me the problem of installing sets with more than two weights, more than one width and several design sizes, as we spoke about earlier. It's late in the day here, but I hope to try that out tomorrow. Just to make sure I understand the example you and Mojca gave me: > \definebodyfont [default] [rm] > [tf=Serif sa 1, > bf=SerifBold sa 1, > it=SerifItalic sa 1, > sl=SerifSlanted sa 1, > bi=SerifBoldItalic sa 1, > bs=SerifBoldSlanted sa 1, > sc=SerifCaps sa 1] > > You could add your > in=SerifYourFontVariantName sa 1, > bd=SerifYourOtherFontVariantName sa 1, I think I can add this block to the top of my own typescript, duplicate the existing definitions as shown, and, when making up my own, I think I'm free to define font switches with more than two characters, so, e.g.: sbexit=SansSemiboldExtendedItalic sa 1 so, I won't be able to switch variants of this kind independently, but at least I can get them installed. After that, I'll move on to the optical examples and see what I can do about that (I'm hoping they provide for automatic switching of design size). Thank you, -- m

Footnotes and interaction again
by Philipp Gesang 18 Mar '10

18 Mar '10

Hi again, I just ran into the footnote problem again, this time when referring to labels inside footnotes. As in the earlier thread the issue occurs with mkiv only. Example: ---8<-------------------------------------------------------------------------- \setupinteraction[state=start,focus=standard] \starttext \startfootnote A label \reference[label:1]{} we will refer to. \stopfootnote \page[yes] \goto{Here}[label:1] we refer somewhere. It all happens on Page \ref[p][label:1]. \stoptext ---8<-------------------------------------------------------------------------- To be precise, you don't actually have to refer to the label, having it inside a footnote causes the error. Thanks for any suggestions, Philipp

Hallo, the following example compiles ok \starttext \startformula \frac{206}{7}=[29;2,2,1] \stopformula \stoptext while this compiles not \starttext \startformula [29;2,2,1]=\frac{206}{7} \stopformula \stoptext Bug or user error? Wolfgang
