I think it would be nice to see all the editors and how well they integrate ConTeXt. Such a presentation might also bring up new ideas on how to make it work even better in some editors :] > 2. Can you give a short talk about your editor in this session. If so, > please inform me which editor you use.

A \part command for ConTeXt
by TeXWorld 03 Jul '08

03 Jul '08

Hello, In latex, there is the \part command. If my memory is good, this command is available only in the book class (and maybe report). Is there an equivalent command in ConTeXt ? Thank you. Jack

bib, Italian style
by Andrea Valle 03 Jul '08

03 Jul '08

Hi to all, I'm using this: \setuppublications[alternative=num] \setuppublicationlist[author=\invertedshortauthor, editor= \invertedshortauthor] All works fine, but terminology is in English, and my next project is in Italian. Is there a way to create an Italian template? In general, I could provide translations Thanks Best -a- -------------------------------------------------- Andrea Valle -------------------------------------------------- CIRMA - DAMS Università degli Studi di Torino --> http://www.cirma.unito.it/andrea/ --> http://www.myspace.com/andreavalle --> andrea.valle(a)unito.it -------------------------------------------------- " Think of it as seasoning . noise [salt] is boring .

Hi, Guess this is (Plain) TeX stuff - haven't found the answer... How do you comment several lines at once, instead of prefixing each line with the % sign ? Alan

startregister <-> stopregister
by Steffen Wolfrum 03 Jul '08

03 Jul '08

Hi, converting a MSWord Doc file to TEI-XML gives me this kind of index range: <anchor type="bookmark-start" xml:id="Index216"/> <anchor type="bookmark-end" corresp="#Index216"/ ><index><term>Verfassungsvertrag</term></index> Unfortunately in ConTeXt the register entry is required the other way round: \startregister[index][knuthrange1]{Knuth} \stopregister[index][knuthrange1] Could it be possible also to provide something like ... \startregister[index][Index216] \stopregister[index][Index216]{Verfassungsvertrag} ... in mkii, please?

LuaTeX problems
by Tomi Lindberg 03 Jul '08

03 Jul '08

ConTeXt minimals is up and running but I have problems with LuaTeX. First the files I assume to be important: % Project \startproject atkmom \environment environ \product book \stopproject % Product \startproduct book \project atkmom \component images \startfrontmatter \environment fmatter \completecontent \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \environment body \component intro \component osbasics \component files \component opera \stopbodymatter \startbackmatter \completeindex[title=Hakemisto] \stopbackmatter \stopproduct With "texexec" my project results in proper .pdf file except the additional empty page at the end of it. With "context" the process ends after line "\product book" (I get a proper notice about the end of product book) in project file and i get the "*" prompt. It seems like LuaTeX can't see the "\stopproject" at all and thinks that the file has unexpectedly ended. Also with context I get messages that every \at, \in and \about that refers to something in component other than the one they're in is an unknown reference. They all work fine with texexec. Any idea what's wrong?

screen sizes
by Alan Stone 02 Jul '08

02 Jul '08

Hi, >From what I understand from the ConTeXt manual, the S3-S6 screen sizes relate to the physical screen dimensions, more precisely the display area width and height. However, the only information I find when searching for the most common screen sizes relates to the screen resolution and/or the screen diagonal size. Any idea where to find reliable data about the most common screen (physical) sizes ? Alan
