defining (new) macros with optional arguments
by Goebel, Juergen 10 Sep '08

10 Sep '08

Hi, Does something like \newcommand exist in ConTeXt? My questions aims especially at the optional argument with a predefined value. So, how do I realize \newcommand{\test}[2][A]{foo} with ConTeXt. In the fine manual I found an index entry \definecommand, but in the 'rest' of the manual it was never mentioned (print and screen version alike)! Regards, Juergen

Texlive 2008 on Windows (Vista)

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV; says I have to reinstall texlive 2008 if it has been installed in a path containing spaces such; C:\Program Files (x86)\texlive\2008 Which also happens to be the default install location. Is there a workaround? And I think adding a section to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV will be really helpful.

Hi, For automatic environment setup, I think there are two values should be changed for better directory support: TEXMFCNF --> ...\texmf\web2c (why did it find texmf-local/context on my machine ?) TEXMF ---> {...} // add values like texmf-fonts, texmf-project, texmf-extra, etc. defined in setuptex.bat. Yue Wang

sometxt in mkiv
by Thomas A. Schmitz 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

Hi all, I was just wondering if this is a bug or if it's something that still needs to be implemented: the example on p. 10 of Mojca's sometxt MyWay works in mkii, yet in mkiv, it doesn't: \starttext \startTeXtexts \dorecurse{12}{\TeXtext{\recurselevel}{\recurselevel}} \stopTeXtexts \startMPcode numeric r; r = 1.5cm; draw fullcircle scaled 2r; for i=1 upto 12: draw (origin--down) scaled 4pt shifted (0,r) rotated -30i; label(sometxt(i), up scaled .75r rotated -30i); endfor; \stopMPcode \stoptext in mkiv, I get no labels and the somewhat cryptic sentence "[do we need TeXtexts in MkIV]" on my pdf. Anybody able to answer this or my question? All best Thomas
