Wolfgang and Mojca, Thank-you for your replies. They have enabled me to set up a little batch file to make life easier when I want to generate a module document. Thanks, Richard Stephens

Re: [NTG-context] Unable to generate luatex formats

The two files Taco pointed to *appear* to be OK (though I'm too inexperienced to say with certainty). That leaves something esoteric or a tossed salad of old and new code. Since this is mainly a matter of learning and curiosity for me, I'll wait and see how things develop for a bit.

\hyphenatedfile redefined!!
by Aditya Mahajan 14 Apr '08

14 Apr '08

Hi, Typeset this file :) \starttext The file \filename{knuth} contains a quotation from Don Knuth, the creator of \TEX. \stoptext core-ver.tex defines \filename to be \unexpanded\def\filename#1{{\tttf\hyphenatedfile{#1}}} and supp-lan.tex defines \hypenatedfile to be \let\hyphenatedfile\hyphenatedurl However this is redefined in supp-box.tex, due to which \filename gets redefined. %D \macros %D {hyphenatedword, %D hyphenatedpar, %D hyphenatedfile, %D dohyphenateword} %D %D The next one is a tricky one. \PLAIN\ \TEX\ provides %D \type{\showhyphens} for showing macros on the terminal. When %D preparing a long list of words we decided to show the %D hyphens, but had to find out that the \PLAIN\ alternative %D can hardly be used and|/|or adapted to typesetting. The next %D two macros do the job and a little more. Although, I cannot gather this from the definition, it seems that \hypenatedfile is showing all the hyphens in a file. One of the macros need to get a different name :) Aditya

luatools --ini plain
by Hans van der Meer 14 Apr '08

14 Apr '08

This is something I don't understand. In the mk.pdf manual on luatex on page 21 there is the following example: luatools --ini plain Instead of the expected output 120,808 plain.fmt etc. I get an error: "There is no lua initialization file found. ..." Running "luatools --generate" does not help. There is a hint: "This file can be forced by the --progname directve, or specified with --luaname,..." How can I get a "lua initialization file" in order to not have the error. And how do I interpret the hint, as the text of the error message is too cryptic for me to understand. Hans van der Meer

Hmmm this produces something funny: $ luatools --selfupdate LuaTools | to be replaced old script /usr/texbin/luatools LuaTools | unable to locate new script LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.005 seconds Perhaps some link is wrong or I shouldn't use the alias /usr/texbin (as installed by MacTeX)?

Natural tables, offsets
by David 14 Apr '08

Hi all I'm using the natural table environment, and would like the text in each cell to have some horizontal offset from the cell boundaries - but I don't want to change the vertical offset. Is there a way to do this? Thanks David

Streams

Hello For a publication project in phonetics and dialectology I'd like to print the phonetic transcription and the dialect text in a two column setup. I would be interested to use context for that (more flexibility than LaTeX), but every new paragraph is printed on a new page (as Henning Hraban Ramm posted earlier). Is there a work around other than using two pages?
