sectionstopper
by Wolfgang Schuster 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Hi Hans, how I can i put symbols at both sides of a header, with sectionstopper i can get only on at the right side of the number but not at the left and tricks like numbercommand or setuplabeltext do not affect references and the content entries. In the following example i want the chapter number to be printed as 1) Chaptertitle -> sectionsegments=2:2 and the section number as (1) Sectiontitle -> sectionsegments=3:3 but a reference in the test should show the complete number in the form '1)(1)' and the same should appear in the table of contents. Best regards, Wolfgang \setuphead[chapter][sectionsegments=2:2,sectionstopper=)] \setuphead[section][sectionsegments=3:3,sectionstopper=),numbercommand=(] % How can I print the section number as '1) (1)' in the toc? %\setuplist[section][sectionsegments=2:3,numbercommand=(] \setupreferencestructureprefix[default][prefixsegments=2:100] % uncomment to get the correct result for references in the text, brr %\definestructureseparatorset [default][,(][] \starttext \completecontent \chapter[sec:knuth]{Knuth} \input knuth \section[sec:ward]{Ward} \input ward \page see \in{section}[sec:ward] at \at{page}[sec:ward] \stoptext

Automated Quotation/Punctuation Placement
by Tad Ashlock 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Hi All, I'm trying to create a command that will apply a consistent style to a word or phrase. For example, when documenting source code, I'd like to be able to mark variables with \Var{var_name}. Then if I want the variable names to be in mono, I can \def\Var#1{\type{#1}}. No problem there. If I want variable names to be in quotes, then \def\Var#1{\quote{#1}}. The problem is that in my ConTeXt code I'd write "This is \Var{var_name}, a variable." Which would get typeset as "This is 'var_name', a variable." where punctuation convention (at least in American English) would have the comma inside the quote like this: "This is 'var_name,' a variable." I've tried four different ways of implementing this, but none of them work consistently. Here's my last attempt: ========================== \startluacode function move_end_punctuation (text, punc, cmd_start, cmd_mid, cmd_end) context(cmd_start .. text .. cmd_mid) if string.find('.,!?', punc, 1, true) then context(punc .. cmd_end) else context(cmd_end .. ' ' .. punc) end end \stopluacode \def\Var#1#2{\ctxlua{move_end_punctuation([==[#1]==],[==[#2]==], '\\quote{\\type{','}','}')}} \starttext This is \Var{var_name}, a variable. \stoptext ========================== This works, until the \Var{} macro appears in the argument of another macro. For example, make the text: \framed{This is \Var{var_name}, a variable.} and the following error results: ========================== systems : begin file test.tex at line 16 ! Missing $ inserted. <inserted text> $ <to be read again> _ l.1 ...spaces quote{unskip ignorespaces type{var_ name} \Var ...=],[==[#2]==], '\\quote{\\type{','}','}')} l.18 \framed{This is \Var{var_name}, a variable.} ? ========================== I think my problem has to do with parameter expansion, but I don't understand the intricacies enough to solve this. I flailed away, unsuccessfully, with various combinations of \unexpanded, \normalunexpanded, luaescapestring, etc. Does anyone have a solution or a pointer in the right direction? Thank you, Tad

Re: [NTG-context] TeX Gyre and (no) Cyrillic
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Dear Mojca > Did you read the message about TeX Gyre? > Ohhhh! I overlooked it. This will not affect me much since I use standard Windows fonts and sometimes Adobe. But the poor thing is that ConTeXt will not work with Cyrillic "out of the box" anymore. However, since we count Cyrillic users using fingers of one hand :), I think you can drop old Gyre fonts and don't bother yourself with it. Anyone will seek another solution, and Gyre fonts never was of top quality, IMHO. Thank you for caring about us! Vyatcheslav

TeX Gyre and (no) Cyrillic
by Mojca Miklavec 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

Dear Cyrillic users, this is just to let you know (in particular Vyatcheslav) that minimals still contain an outdated version of TeX Gyre fonts. Below you can read part of font development history. Simply put: Cyrillic support has been removed a few months ago (I didn't follow closely and didn't notice that right away). We might keep a zip with the old font files somewhere, but support for Cyrillic will be gone by default. Someone would need to take over the development of Cyrillic glyphs if they were to be supported. And someone needs to fix the wiki page. Please do not blame me - we cannot do anything but follow what the Polish have decided. If anyone disagrees, you are welcome to form a team to work on those glyphs. Ver 2.003: 16.09.2009 * this is the first official release of the TeX Gyre Termes fonts since June 22, 2009, when URW++, represented by Dr. Peter Rosenfeld, its Managing Director, kindly agreed to release the original 35 base PostScript fonts as shipped with Ghostscript ver. 4.00 under the LPPL (LaTeX Project Public License). This should be understood so that the 35 base Postscript fonts may be used and developed either under the LPPL or one of the GPL (GNU Public Licence) or AFPL (Aladdin Free Public Licence). The latter were put in force with the initial release of the base fonts with Ghostscript ver. 4.00 in 1996. Hereby we thank Dr. Rosenfeld. The TeX Gyre fonts are being develped from the Ghostscript ver. 4.00 base. For reasons explained elsewhere, we prefer to provide our work under the GUST Font Licence (GFL) which is legally equivallent to the LPPL. However, since 1996 the 35 PostScript base fonts were enhanced under the GNU Public License with Vietnamese glyphs by Han The Thanh and Cyrillic glyphs by Valek Filippov. Han The Thanh kindly permitted his additions to be retained under under GFL/LPPL in this and future TeX Gyre fonts releases. Unfortunately, we were unable to receive a similar permission from Valek Filippov for his Cyrillic glyphs, thus there are no Cyrillic glyphs in any of the TeX Gyre fonts. * with the removal of the Cyrillic glyphs all t2a-*.tfm, t2b-*.tfm t2c-*.tfm files and the relevant LaTeX *.fd files were also removed.

Natural Tables Cell Borders

Help needed! The fifth \setupTABLE command below reduces the rulethickness of the bottomframe in cells (2,5) and (3,5). Is there a way to avoid that?

What is the luatex version of \pdfescapehex
by Zhichu Chen 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

Hi, I've written a very old module which used a lot of pdf primitives like \pdfescapehex and \pdfescapename etc. and it turns out not they don't work in mkiv. So I just want to know are there any alternatives?
