how to use attachment file as a script argument
by Bill Long 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

based on the example of use mplayer play the movie, I write down sthing like >\defineprogram[sample.data][sample.data.sh] >\goto{\externalfigure[sample.data][width=0.48\textwidth]}[program(sample.data{})] and the content of sample.data.sh is >#!/bin/bash > FILE=$(basename "$0"); gnome-terminal -e "cat ${FILE/.sh/}" it does work, but I wanna know if there are better way to make this. as this way has some obvious problem: 1. if I send this pdf file to other guy, the script won't execute, as it can't find out the sample.data file. same thing will happen if I move my sample.data to other directory. 2. it's take too much effort if I have lots of file to analysis, I have to write lots of file like sample.data1.sh, sample.data2.sh... with same content, soft link maybe a solution, but I hope there are more easy solution.

How to update Context on Windows (with Texlive 2008)
by abhseth2107＠live.in 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

I have TeXLive 2008 installed on Windows (on a path with no spaces). I wanted to update ConTexT, so ran the following commands (using cygwin), following instructions from wiki rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/context/current/ /cygdrive/c/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/ which ran fine. However the next command rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/bin/luatex/win32/bin/luatex /cygdrive/c/texlive/2008/bin/win32/ fails, producing rsync: change_dir "/current/bin/luatex/win32" (in minimals) failed: No such file or directory So the question is, how do I update the ConTexT and luatex for windows (TeXLive installation)? Note that, luatools --generate generates no cnf files found message. Regards Abhishek

colored backgrounds in displayed math
by Sanjoy Mahajan 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

In displayed math I was trying to highlight a piece of a formula using a gray background. After a few spacing failures with \framed, I discovered \mframed in the core-rul.tex source file. The comments there say: %D As usual, one can specify in what way the text should be %D framed. One should be aware of the fact that, inorder to %D preserve the proper spacing, the \type {offset} is set to %D \type {overlay} and \type {frameoffset} is used used %D instead. But I couldn't get the following example of setting frameoffset to enlarge the box; instead the gray box barely surrounds the x^2/2. Is the cause the \@@oioffset in line 1502 of core-rul.tex: [\c!frameoffset=\@@oioffset,\c!offset=\v!overlay,#2] (I'm using ConTeXt - 2008.10.31 13:58, Mk II) \setupcolors[state=start] \def\graymath{\mframed[frame=off, background=color, backgroundcolor=gray, frameoffset=5pt]} \starttext \startformula \ln(1+x) = \graymath{x- \displaystyle{x^2\over2}} + \cdots \stopformula \stoptext

Actually, hyph-uk is Ukrainain. And the corresponding file is missed in the distribution, so simply changing mtx-patterns.lua will not help. Vyatheslav

hyphenation in latest
by Thomas A. Schmitz 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Hi all, Hans, I get no hyphenation for ancient Greek with the latest beta (and, as I have seen, a couple of betas before that). Test file (I hope this doesn't get butchered in the mail): \usetypescriptfile[type-gentium] \usetypescript[gentium] \setupbodyfont[gentium,12pt] \starttext \language[agr] φιλοσοφία \hyphenatedword{φιλοσοφία} \stoptext Interestingly, the log file says: mkiv lua stats : loaded patterns - agr:gr:pat:exc:3 us:us:pat:exc:2 but there is no hyphenation. Any pointers? All best Thomas
