Font and Typescript Questions
by curiouslearn 04 May '09

04 May '09

Can someone please help me with the following questions so that I can use some of the typescripts that Wolfgang and some others have so kindly made available. I will use font Bera as an example, since I would like to use it. I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.6 (1) How do I know if I have font Bera? As in, where on my computer do I look to see if I have font Bera installed? (2) If I do not have the font, how do I install Bera? I see that there are files on ctan. Where should I save this? (3) Once I have installed the font and I have downloaded Wolfgang's type-bera.tex file, where do I save this file? Can I save it where I save the third-party modules. Once I save it, do I run the usual texhash, followed by luatools --generate followed by context --make (4) Once I have accomplished the top three steps, how do I use it in a document? Do I just type \usetypescript[bera] \switchtobodyfont[bera,12pt] OR, do I also have to type \usemodule[type-bera] I would really appreciate any help.

URL \href ... ?
by Mohamed Bana 04 May '09

04 May '09

Hi, Is there macro for typesetting a URL without defining it before hand? E.g., something as simple as, \href{www.google.com}, it'd also be great if \setupalign[hyphenated] \setupurl[space=yes,style=\ss,urlalternative=] also determined the way they are typeset. Mohamed

Set document version
by Wolfgang Schuster 02 May '09

02 May '09

Hi Hans, ConTeXt has a command (\version[...]) to set the version of the document but as developer there is no way to get access to this value. Can you give us a defined register which can be used from other modules (e.g. fixme). I would even prefer a new command like \setupdocument where you can set the document version (passed down to \version), the name and authour (passed down to \setupinteraction) etc. Wolfgang

ConTexT minimals problem
by Bowen Alan C. 01 May '09

01 May '09

The latest beta (Minimals) fails to compile and complains: This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (Web2C 7.5.7) \write18 enabled. (/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-context/web2c/natural.tcx) I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'! and context --version gets MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' Alan

How to update/install minimals
by Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini 01 May '09

01 May '09

Hallo, I wanted to update a minimal-installation under windows. The first attempt was to invoke: first-detup --keep (found at the garden) The result was the following output, nothing else happend: --------------------------------------------------------------------- receiving incremental file list ./ mtxrun.lua sent 2897 bytes received 2103 bytes 2000.00 bytes/sec total size is 4983352 speedup is 996.67 MTXrun | fileio: variable SELFAUTOLOC set to D:/context/bin MTXrun | fileio: variable SELFAUTODIR set to D:/context MTXrun | fileio: variable SELFAUTOPARENT set to D: MTXrun | fileio: variable TEXMFCNF set to {$SELFAUTODIR,$SELFAUTOPARENT}{,{/share,}/texmf{- local,.local,}/web2c} MTXrun | fileio: no cnf files found (TEXMFCNF may not be set/known) MTXrun | using script: ./bin/mtx-update.lua D:\context\bin\mtxrun.lua:1611: attempt to call field 'env' (a table value) When you want to use context, you need to initialize the tree with: D:\context\tex\setuptex.bat D:\context\tex You can associate this command with a shortcut to the cmd prompt. --------------------------------------------------------------------- What is the field 'env'? The second attempt was the reinstall context. I downloaded: http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/context-setup-mswin.zip to a new directory and started first-setup. But the result was identical to the first. What I am doing wrong? Wolfgang

Stable version
by Mohamed Bana 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

Hi guys, How can i get a somewhat recent and stable version where things just work. I've tried --stable and --context=stable which both insist of getting luatex 0.40. mtxrun --verbose --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --update --make --force --engine=all --context=stable --stable --texroot=$PWD/tex --extras="t-letter,t-mathsets,t-tikz,t-vim" $@ There's a lot of things broken in the current minimals, e.g., bib module, hanging, a error about front and I can't to even seem to use OT fonts. I think context should complain when a CLI options hasn't been spelt correctly: $ context --batchmoed Many thanks Mohamed
