Bib module...
by Willi Egger 08 Mar '09

08 Mar '09

Hi, I should typeset an article... Now I tried out different approaches but I do not get a complete list of references. I am puzzled why I do get only Taco's reference in the list and why there is no journal mentioned in Taco's reference. Here is a minimal example: \setuppublicationlist[totalnumber=2,criterium=all] \startpublication [k=me, t=manual, a=Hoekwater, y=2006, s=TH2006, n=2, u=http://contextgarden.net/Bibliography] \artauthor{Taco}[T.]{}{Hoekwater} \arttitle{\CONTEXT\ Publication Module, The user documententation} \note{In case you didn’t know: it’s the document you are reading now} \pages{14} \journal{MAPS} \pages{100-114} \pubyear{2008} \stoppublication \startpublication[% k=Allan-eighty, t=article, a=Allan et al., y=1980, n=1] \artauthor[]{}[E.M.]{}{Allan} \artauthor[]{}[H M.]{}{Pirle} \artauthor[]{}[P. M.]{}{Msolla} \artauthor[]{}[I.E.]{}{Selman} \artauthor[]{}[A.]{}{Wiseman} \arttitle{The pathological features of severe cases of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis} \journal{Vet.

new beta
by Hans Hagen 07 Mar '09

07 Mar '09

Hi, I uploaded a new beta (mkiv): -- some optimizations to color literals; i might have introduced problems there so keep an eye on color -- beter definition for virtual lm math (design sizes etc) and a fix for undefined sizes -- taco and i also tracked down some accuracy problems with cirtual glyphs in luatex itself; it's not that critical unless you have eyes that can zoom in to .05pt so ther eis no real need to upgrade luatex now -- there are a few more optimizations but don't expect too much speed improvements in the future next comes integration of the new structure stuff (quite some impact) and further split of mkii/mkiv code Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Two questions - Cross Referencing (Automated label generation + Random items)
by Curious Learn 07 Mar '09

07 Mar '09

As I mentioned earlier, I am trying to use Context to make a multiple choice test. I have two questions. (1) Suppose I want to get a list of answers to the the multiple choice questions. One way I can think of doing this is by assigning a label to the CORRECT answer as done in the following code and then referring to that label. Is there a way these labels can be generated automatically, instead of hardcoding them as I have done below? defineenumeration[problem][text= ,location=inleft] \setupenumerations[problem][stopper=)] \defineitemgroup[choices][levels=1] \setupitemgroup[choices][1][a,packed] \nextrandom \starttext \problem This is the first question. \startchoices \startitem This is incorrect answer 1. \stopitem \startitem This is a wrong answer too. \stopitem \startitem[1] This is the CORRECT answer. \stopitem \startitem Yet another wrong answer. \stopitem \stopchoices \problem This is the second question. \startchoices \startitem[2] This is the CORRECT answer. \stopitem \startitem This is a wrong answer too. \stopitem \startitem This is not a correct choice. \stopitem \startitem Yet another wrong answer. \stopitem \stopchoices Answers to the questions \in[1] \in[2] \stoptext (2) When I add the option "random" to the itemgroup (\setupitemgroup[choices][1][a,packed,random]) then as expected the choices are listed in a random order. However, the label does not change with the choice listing. I want the reference to be attached to the CORRECT answer, which changes its position with random option. Is there a way to have the reference reflect the letter corresponding to the correct answer. Thanks in advance for your help. I really appreciate it.

How to use my own BibTeX style (bst)?
by Wei-Wei Guo 06 Mar '09

06 Mar '09

Dear all, I have both English and Chinese citations in my paper. Because Chinese citation has some special requirements, such as using "等" instead of "et al". I made a bst file to solve the localization problem. But after reading the manual of t-bib and searched in garden and mailing list, I find it might be tricky to make t-bib use my own bst file. Could you tell my how to do it? Thanks a lot! Best wishes, Wei-Wei Guo

Howto make a handy script to handle dia exported *.mp files
by Jan-Erik Hägglöf 06 Mar '09

06 Mar '09

HI ALL! According to an earlier post that was very much helpful, I now wish to know how to write a shell script or similar to automate this exporting process. http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20081124.122842.38fee2f4.en.html I discover it is a lot of typing work to get these work as expected in ConTeXt and specially mkIV. Here is what i wish: Just type in the ubuntu terminal ./mp2context figure.mp figure.tex Inside the file mp2context it replaces all the latex related like verbatimtex bla bla etex with \startuseMPgraphic{figure} and replaces textareas from btex { latex font definitions ..text..} etex to \sometxt{..text..} I saw Aditya mentioned in the earlier post about some regexp but I don't know what do do with it. Finally you just for example in main document do \startproduct \component figure \placefigure[here][fig:myfig]{Here is my picture done in dia}{\scale[width=\textwidth]{\useMPgraphic{figure}}} \stoppproduct Thanks in Advance! Janneman using Minimals current version: 2009.01.18 14:39 This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.35.0-2009022416 (Web2C 7.5.7)

It comes right in time. Thank you! Is it possible to make the temp lily file in the format of PNG instead of PDF? MkIV here cannot insert PDF figure properly recently.

Dear music lovers, I just uploaded a new version of the LilyPond module, see http://modules.contextgarden.net/t-lilypond http://wiki.contextgarden.net/LilyPond It works now with LilyPond 2.12 and fixes some bugs - i.e. all settings should work now, and with \lilypond[fragment=yes,time=no,clef=no]{c''8 d'' e'' f'' g''} it should now produce proper fragments (snippets).
