french rules for punctuation
by Olivier Guéry 23 Sep '08

23 Sep '08

Hello, It seem's that there's some changes on the « frenchpunctuation front » ! Thank's. I modified my test file and ad more precise rules to the wiki : http://wiki.contextgarden.net/frenchpunctuation I test it with luatex 0.29 and context 2008.09.21 * Strange bug : the space After the openning quote («) is twice bigger than the one before the closing one (»). Look at test 3 * Wolfgang change the wiki about the compose word, but using this (with the syntax compose||word) I get an endash (–) and not the normal sign (-). Test 5 * There should't be space between two sign. Test 2 * The space before the footnote sign is too big (it's clearer with othe fonts). Test 4 As usual, if you need more information, just ask ! Cheers, Olivier. -- [Message tapé sur un clavier Bépo : http://www.clavier-dvorak.org ] http://nemolivier.blogspot.com

Re: [NTG-context] Interaction and accented letters
by Flavien Lambert 23 Sep '08

23 Sep '08

In fact, I have just checked that this options are not necessary. I forgot to say that I was using XeTeX. It seems that, even with these options, accented letters are not printed properly in the properties of the document. There is no problems with standard ConTeXt (MKII). 2008/9/19 Braslau & Rachline <braslau(a)free.fr> > On Friday 19 September 2008 19:00:42 Flavien Lambert wrote: > > Dear all, is there a way to put accented letters in the interaction > command > > ?

how to color footnote?
by Steffen Wolfrum 23 Sep '08

23 Sep '08

... while dealing with colored elements: having the footnote number (down in front of the footnote text) in dark green is not that bad, just, why can't it be colored in an other way? I tried in vain both in \setupfootnotes and \setupfootnotedefinition: numbercolor, color... Only \setupfootnotes[textcolor=magenta] affects the footnote number in the main text. But nothing changes in the footnote area. Does this make sense? Steffen

Units module - bug?
by Marcin Borkowski 22 Sep '08

22 Sep '08

Hi, I see that the units module puts a nonstretchable/nonshrinkable space between the number and the unit. Is that ok? Perhaps the space should be thin (this is what Knuth recommends in The TeXbook, and I guess it looks nicer)?

Pagenumbering on the first page of a section/chapter/...
by Marcin Borkowski 22 Sep '08

22 Sep '08

Hi, I'd like to define a section-like thing (with \definehead) in a way that prevents ConTeXt from putting the pagenumber on the _first_ page of this "section". How do I do this? Greets -- Marcin Borkowski (http://mbork.faculty.fmcs.amu.edu.pl)

Updating LuaTeX after MacTeX-TeXLive 2008 (again)
by Otared KAVIAN 22 Sep '08

22 Sep '08

Dear ConTeXters, I apologize for sending twice this message: since I did not receive it myself, I thought it has been lost… So here is my help request: I just updated my TeX installation with the latest MacTeX-TeXLive 2008, and since the version of LuaTeX included there was 0.25.0, I built a binary version LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.29.0-2008091817. Now the problem is that my usual procedure for generating mkiv doesn't work and I couldn't fix the problem… (That procedure used to work fine with the previous version of MacTeX-TeXLive 2008). More precisely mtxrun --selfupdate seems to work fine, but then luatools --selfupdate results in: LuaTools | to be replaced old script /usr/texbin/luatools LuaTools | unable to locate new script LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.082 seconds and the command luatools --generate apparently works fine, since there is no complaints, as far as I can see. Now when I issue the command: luatools --ini --verbose --compile cont-en luatools stops after executing some commands and finally I get: LuaTools | using lua initialization file cont-en.luc LuaTools | running command: luatex --ini --lua="cont-en.luc" "/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/base/cont-en.tex" \\dump (/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/base/cont-en.tex ! I can't find file `context.tex'. l.16 \input context.tex Please type another input file name: If I do give a complete path for this file, that is /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/base/context.tex (or for another one /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/context.tex) again luatools complaints about not finding the file syst-pln.tex… and so on. I should say that I execute also the commands export TEXMFCACHE="/tmp" export TEXMFCNF="/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf/web2c/" export TEXMF="{/Users/kavian/Library/texmf,/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-config,/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var,/usr/local/texlive/2008/../texmf-local,/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist,/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf,/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local}" export LUAINPUTS="{/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/context/base,/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/scripts/context/lua}" export OSFONTDIR="{/Users/kavian/Library/Fonts,/Library/Fonts}" export TEXMFSCRIPTS="{$TEXMF/scripts/context/,$TEXMF/tex/context/base}" before the above. Since I do most of the operations without really understanding what is going on, I am sure I am doing something wrong… But what? Thanks for your help… Best regards: OK
