minimals and TeXShop
by Hans van der Meer 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

The directives in the ContextGarden for working with the minimals in TeXShop are not working for me on MacOSX. I installed the minimals in ~/TeX/context/beta and then set the TeXShop engine script to: export TEXROOT="~/TeX/context/beta/tex" export PATH=$TEXROOT/texmf-osx-ppc/bin:$PATH export TEXMFCACHE="$TEXROOT/texmf-cache" context "$1" This corresponds to the recipe step 3 of "TeXShop installation and configuration". The result in TeXShop's console window is disappointing: MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' Prefixing to the engine script with the recommended: ~/TeX/context/beta/tex/setuptex does not help. In fact $TEXROOT appears not to have been set, witnessed by the following output: Setting "/Users/hans/TeX/context/beta/tex" as TEXROOT. TEXROOT after ~/TeX/context/beta/tex/setuptex = MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' What now? Hans van der Meer

resetting localfootnote counter query
by Bowen Alan C. 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

I currently have a document in which there are numerous tables each with local footnotes marked by alphabetic characters. When I process the file, I get complaints like: pdfTeX warning (ext4): destination with the same identifier (name{a}) has been already used, duplicate ignored <to be read again> \egroup \thisisdestination ... \dostartthisislocation {#1} \dostopthisislocation \fi ... \dodowritereference ...nceprefix \lastreference }} \referenceinfo > \lastrefer... \rawprocesscommaitem ...commalevel \endcsname {#1} \expandafter \rawprocessco... \rawprocesscommalist ... \rawprocesscommaitem #1,] ,\global \advance \commale... \writereference ...[\!!stringa ]\dowritereference \fi \fi ... l.354 \footnotetext[a] {See \goto{Pingree 1977}[Pingree1977].} Is there a way to reset the localfootnote counter so that ConTeXt is happy and the footnotes marked by arabic numerals are undisturbed. Something like \resetnumber[localfootnotes] perhaps, though this does not work. Alan

minimals missing etex?
by Hans van der Meer 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

After loading context stable minimals with the following script: #!/bin/bash curl -o first-setup.sh http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/first-setup.sh mkdir tex ln -s $HOME/Library/texmf tex/texmf-local sh ./first-setup.sh --context=current >first-setup.log source ./tex/setuptex I get this message on ETEX in the call to first-setup.sh. ...hans/TeX/context/stable/tex/texmf-osx-ppc/bin/mtxrun:8707: attempt to concate nate a nil value (/Users/hans/TeX/context/stable/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/ cont-en.tex ( /Users/hans/TeX/context/stable/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/ context.tex SORRY CONTEXT NOW NEEDS ETEX ) ) Is there something wrong here?

\goto and email
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

Hello, I have success with \goto instead of \useURL. Actually, I like \goto even more, because it is more simple. \goto{http://url.com/index.html}[url(http://url.com/index.html)] My question is: how to mark a email in this way? (So that clicking on it opened mail client) Best, Vyactheslav

Tables query (notes, MKII)
by Bowen Alan C. 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

I need a table that has local notes, but have not been able to get them into the proper position (at the left margin of the table) or the the proper length ( extending full length of table if needed). What am I missing in the following reduced example? \starttext \startlocalfootnotes[conversion=character] \placetable[][] {} \placelegend {\starttables[|p|p|p|p|p|p|] \NC numbers \NC (*) \footnote{This is the first footnote.} \NC stuff \footnote{This is the second footnote.} \NC stuff\footnote{This is the third footnote.} \NC more stuff\footnote{This is the fourth footnote} \NC and yet more \NC\SR \HL \stoptables} {\placelocalfootnotes} \stoplocalfootnotes \stoptext Alan

inserting Chinese characters (MKII)
by Bowen Alan C. 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

I have absolutely no knowledge of Chinese, but I am publishing a review which inserts two Chinese characters into a document as follows, third century alchemist Ge Hong 葛洪 as another So which of the two Chinese modules on http:// modules.contextgarden.net/ should I install or do I need them both? (I am assuming that installing one of both of these modules will take care of steps 1–4 of the post-ConTeXt 2005.12.19 instructions on http://wiki.contextrarden.net/Chinese .) By the way, the LaTeX file that I am working from has \begin{TChinese}ËëõÊ¥™\end{TChinese} where \newenvironment{TChinese}{% \CJKfamily{bsmi}% %\CJKfamily{bkai}% \CJKtilde \CJKnospace}{} Alan

3SIDE imposition schema weirdness
by Nicolas Girard 10 Jun '09

10 Jun '09

Hi, i'm a little bit puzzled by the results of the following test file, using the 3SIDE imposition schema from Willi ( http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Imposition#Additional_schemas ). The results consists in pages 1|2|3 on the recto of the sheet, and pages 4|5|6 on the verso. * Is it really the intended result ? * If so, I don't understand how can \dosetuparrangement{3}{1}{6}{4}{2} give 1|2|3 // 4|5|6 . What's the rationale ? Why no page 5 among the arguments of \dosetuparrangement ? * What if one wants to fold the resulting brochure ? How to adapt the code (besides by try and error) for the resulting arrangement to be 3|6|1 // 2|4|5 ? Thanks in advance, cheers, Nicolas
