including xml files
by Philipp Gesang 08 Mar '10

08 Mar '10

Hi all, what is the recommended way of including an xml tree from one file in another? Right now I'm stuck with the following \startxmlsetups xml:inc \xmlprocessfile{inc}{\xmlatt{#1}{file}}{} \stopxmlsetups combined with <inc file="inc.xml"/> in the xml source. But although the content of inc.xml is processed the headings it contains don't show up in the toc (there _is_ an entry for them and a page reference as well but no title). Personally, I'd prefer some include method like file entities (<!ENTITY inc SYSTEM "inc.xml">) but they don't seem to work. Thanks for any suggestions, Philipp -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments

Thank you. I had never heard of "luatex/mkiv format" before---I have just been trying to follow the four or five conflicting pages about installation that I found at Context Garden. I did a Google search there for "luatex format", which does not occur, and for "mkiv format", which occurs once, under a heading about updating existing installations. It says: * For making MKIV format luatools --selfupdate mtxrun --selfupdate luatools --generate context --make I tried these commands and, indeed they ran. I also changed my command line to: context --interface=en --language=en test.tex I had been trying to follow the example on the Context Garden page, which contained the incorrect command and flags you saw. Now when I run context, I get less promising output than before: MTXrun | run 1: luatex --fmt="C:contextminimal/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/d1d2ccfb3346ff481f4c4dab022cb26d/fomats/cont-en" --lua="C:contextminimal/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/d1d2ccfb3346ff481f4c4dab022cb26d/fomats/cont-en.lui" --backen MTXrun | fatal error: no return code, message: luatex: No such file or directory

MetaPost + format("%g",n)
by Troy Henderson 08 Mar '10

08 Mar '10

This code compiles fine with plain MetaPost. input graph; beginfig(0); draw begingraph(1in,1in); setrange((0,0),(1,1)); for n=auto.x: show format("%g",n); endfor; endgraph; endfig; end However, this "ConTeXt translated" version errors in MKIV \usemodule[graph] \ctxlua{metapost.showlog=true} \startMPpage draw begingraph(1in,1in); setrange((0,0),(1,1)); for n=auto.x: show format("%g",n); endfor; endgraph; \stopMPpage See foo.log (attached). Thoughts? Troy

not understanding ConTeXt-XML
by Hans van der Meer 08 Mar '10

08 Mar '10

I guess I am a bit stupid, but I do not understand how to process xml in ConTeXt. I started working through the contextXML-example.pdf from the Pragma site. I tried to follow the example on page 8 which reads: % here go style definitions % and XML to TEX mappings \starttext \processXMLfilegrouped {filename.xml} \stoptext In TeXShop (working in the latest context-beta) I have the tex-input: \def\Filenumber#1{[#1]} <xsl:template match="dvd"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="dvd/filenumber"> <xsl:text>\Filenumber{</xsl:text> <xsl:text>{\bf </xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates/> <xsl:text>}</xsl:text> <xsl:text>}</xsl:text> </xsl:template> \starttext \processXMLfilegrouped {xml-input.xml} \stoptext and in file name.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <dvd> <filenumber>D134</filenumber> </dvd> I get the obviously wrong result: <xsl:template match="dvd"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="dvd/ﬁlenumber"> <xsl:text>[</xsl:text> <xsl:text></xsl:text> <xsl:apply-templates/> <xsl:text></xsl:text> <xsl:text>]</xsl:text> </ xsl:template> D134 My main problem seems to be the proper incantations and in the right order. What is the relation between the <xsl:template>-definitions and the xml-processing, because these data show up in the result? What is in this respect the function of macros like \defineXMLenvironment, etc? From the example document I cannot infer the relation between these and the <xsl:template>-definitions. Just some pointers in the right direction may set me on the right track. Thanks in advance. Hans van der Meer

I finally got Context to install (correctly, I think), and I'm trying to set up a profile for it in TeXnicCenter. When I run it, I get the promising message: > TeXExec | processing document 'test.tex' > TeXExec | no ctx file found > TeXExec | tex processing method: context > TeXExec | TeX run 1 > TeXExec | writing option file test.top > TeXExec | using randomseed 110 > TeXExec | tex engine: luatex > TeXExec | tex format: cont-en > TeXExec | runtime: 0.08 > > LaTeX-Result: 0 Error(s), 0 Warning(s), 0 Bad Box(es), 0 Page(s) but no pdf file is output. My command looks something like this: texexec --lua --bat --nonstop --pdf --interface=en --color --language=en test.tex the tex file contains the lines: > \starttext > hello cruel world > \stoptext What is wrong?

Margin terminology -- badly documented, undocumented, or misdocumented
by James Fisher 08 Mar '10

08 Mar '10

Hi all. I am trying to understand the terminology for the \definelayout and \setuplayout commands. Unfortunately the documentation at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layoutdoesn't correspond to the actual output I get. Nor does the 'documentation' at http://getfo.org/context_xml/page3.html , which the first page recommends. More, the two pages seem pretty contradictory. Consider my situation: I'm trying to set up an A4 page with the following margins (I use the term margin to mean the space from the edge of the physical paper to the edge of the body text area): top: 2.97cm bottom: 2.97cm left: 2.1cm right: 2.1cm For the moment, I don't care at all about header and footer space, nor notes in the margins; I'm just trying to get the above margins. However, with all conceivable combinations of commands at both of those pages, I've been unable to set anything like this up. Based on the getfo.org page, I should be able to set up these left and right margins with: backspace=2.1cm, cutspace=2.1cm But, looking at the result, and also with using \showlayout (which for some reason, AFAICS, generates four identical pages at the beginning of the document), this quite obviously doesn't do what getfo.org claims. I have also tried setting everything to 0cm with the exception of any random one of the measurements that go into making a margin, which I would set to 2.1cm. No avail here, either. Can someone give me the configuration I would need for the above required margins? Even better, can someone give me the definitive definitions of all the terms used in http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layout, algebraically rather than as ambiguous tables of "Remarks"? This would help a bunch. Many thanks, James Fisher

MetaPost bug? in MKIV

The following example produces expected output with MKII (texexec) but fails the compilation process with MKIV (context). \startuseMPgraphic{foo} input graph; path p; gdata("data.d", $, augment.p($1,$2);); draw begingraph(4in,2.5in); gdraw p; endgraph; \stopuseMPgraphic \starttext \useMPgraphic{foo} \stoptext The data stored in data.d is as follows: 0 0 1 1 2 4 When compiling with MKIV, the following error occurs: !mplib : mp terminal: (/opt/context-minimals/tex/texmf/metapost/base/graph.mp !

Where to put a module?
by Philipp Gesang 08 Mar '10

08 Mar '10

Dear listmates, a while ago I made some lua tables to aid myself in transliteration of various scripts. I thought this could be of general interest so I built a module from it and threw in some source documentation and a tiny manual, too. Right now it contains modes for Cyrillic, Glagolitic and Greek scripts, older variants included, full ISO 9 support, and two transcription modes as well. (There's a showcase of examples in the manual.) It allows global setups and local adjustments. It splendidly works for me, but maybe somebody wants to review it before I post it on the list, so whom should I send it to?
