TOC: Continous chapter numbering
by Jeff Smith 13 Nov '07

13 Nov '07

Hi again all, I'm plunging deep into ConTeXt nowadays so I have a few more questions in store, and here's one below. But I have to repeat, ConTeXt is an amazing thing for which I'm truly grateful. I'm currently using it to typeset a complex etymological dictionary at my job, and my doctoral dissertation as well, and I have absolutely *no* idea what I would do without it (what, MS Word? perish the thought!)! So, right now I'm exploring the table of content possibilities. I was wondering if it was possible to use a continuous chapter numbering throughout a whole document, across several parts. So, for example, I'd have chapters 1, 2, 3, 4 in part 1, and chapters 5, 6, 7, 8 in part 2, and so on. Thanks again! Jeff

Let's say I have an OpenType font with several number styles (regular, proportional, etc.). Is it possible to use them? I've always wanted to ask this and be sure. Now seems the good time. :-) Thanks, Jeff

Some update woes on Linux
by Jeff Smith 12 Nov '07

12 Nov '07

Hi all, After searching the archives and reading the wikis, I'm still at loss on this one. :( I installed TexLive 2007 on Ubuntu Gutsy through the repository package. All went well. However, given that I have to use XeTeX and that the ConTeXt that was installed with the package dates from May 2007, which is between January and 08.29, to be sure everything was okay I updated ConTeXt. I did it manually because ctxtools didn't work. A problem with the paths. First red flag, but I went on manually. I got the newest cont-tmf.zip and unzipped it in /usr/share/texmf and regenerated the formats by doing: texexec --make --all To check I had the correct version, I ran, on the commandline, these two: texexec --check and: ctxtools --contextversion Both gave me 2007.09.28 16:52, which seems quite correct. However, when I try to compile a document (with the --xtx option), I get the following error: ConTeXt ver: 2007.04.17 12:51 MKII fmt: 2007.11.5 int: english/english language : language en is active system : cont-new loaded (/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/cont-new.tex FatalError : Your format does not match the base files! FormatVersion : 2007.04.17 12:51 MKII FilesVersion : 2007.09.28 16:52 Clearly, there is something I must do that I don't know about or that I haven't found anywhere. Anyone can help? I figure it's simple -- and with all those numerous update questions around, I'm still stumped. Many thanks in advance for any help. Cheers! Jeff Smith

Presentation interaction list
by Jeremy Hughes 12 Nov '07

12 Nov '07

Hi, Forgive me if this is a double post, it didn't seem to get through the first time. I'm writing a presentation where each slide has an interaction list of chapters on the side. There are two things I can't figure out: 1. How to stop the list appearing outside of a part. (Is there a non-documented argument to `criterium'?) 2. How to have the current chapter highlighted on all slides within that chapter. (It's highlighted fine on the first slide of a chapter, but not on subsequent slides). Are these possible? Thanks for your help, Jeremy -------------- slide.tex ---------------- \setuppapersize[S6][S6] \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] \setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch] \setupencoding[default=texnansi] \setupbodyfont[modern] \setuphead[section][ page=yes] \setuphead[subsection][ page=yes] \setupcolors[state=start] \definecolor [FadedColor] [r=.9,g=.1,b=.1] \definecolor [CurrentColor] [r=.1,g=.9,b=.1] \setupinteraction[ page=yes, color=FadedColor, contrastcolor=CurrentColor, menu=on, state=start] \setuplayout[rightedge=2cm,width=9cm] \startinteractionmenu[right] %% \placecontent[ %% level=chapter,criterium=all, %% coupling=on, %% alternative=f, align=left, %% interaction=all, %% before=, after=] \placelist[chapter][ criterium=all, alternative=f, align=left, interaction=all, before=, after=, chapternumber=no] \stopinteractionmenu \setuphead[part][ placehead=yes, page=yes] \starttext {\bfd Title page} \part {About \TEX} \chapter {Examples} \section {Knuth} \input knuth \section {More Knuth} \input knuth \chapter {More examples} \section {Donald} \input knuth \stoptext

Mark IV and pre-processing input file processing.
by Johannes Graumann 12 Nov '07

12 Nov '07

Hello, I started playing around with ConTeXt/LuaTeX and have a question here wich is related to a pet project of mine: is it possible to tell Mark IV something like this > texmfstart texexec --lua --environments=myfile.tex someotherfile.zip where 'myfile.tex' should contain a lua routine which would unzip 'someotherfile.zip' to /tmp and call LuaConTeXt on a file actually contained in the archive (among others)? While I'm sure this can be done in Lua, I wonder whether somebody can point me at how to access the names of files to be processed ('someotherfile.zip') from the running process ... Not sure whether I can make myself understood here ... please ask if I'm not making sense, Joh

Getting the default pdf fonts working on texlive 2007

Here's an example: http://www.colorado.edu/Publications/styleguide/symbols.html I've seen these printed (not handwritten) in grammar guides, so I was wondering if formatting them with TeX was possible at all.

Editor's Symbols?
by Alex K 11 Nov '07

11 Nov '07

Hi all, I'm pretty much a new user to ConTeXt and actually any form of TeX, so forgive me if my question sounds ignorant. Is there any way to format editor's symbols (like those used for demonstration in grammatical textbooks) in a block of text using ConTeXt or LaTeX (preferably with the former)? If not, then does anyone know how I might do this some other way besides actually writing it out by hand? Thanks for your help! Alex __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Using SciTE for both, ConTeXt and LaTeX, at the same time?
by Peter Wüsten 11 Nov '07

11 Nov '07

Dear all, please excuse me if my question is grossly off-topic. I am relatively new to ConTeXt, coming from LaTeX. I fell in love with SciTE the moment I first tried it, and I'm using it with Hans' set of .properties files that came with ConTeXt. I would love to have different sets of tool-menues for both, say "go" opens a .pdf for ConTeXt, but a .dvi for LaTeX. I think the best approach would be to get at the %interface-variable that determines the highlighting. Now, the default setting is lexer.tex.interface.default=0 (at which I can get), but I cannot seem to get at lexer.tex.interface to see what flavour of TeX Scite has recognized. What would be the variable to check? Peter Wuesten

HTML to ConTeXt
by Aditya Mahajan 10 Nov '07

This is interesting. A website that converts html to context (actually uses markdown behind the scenes). http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/html2x.html This is how the context wiki looks like. http://johnmacfarlane.net/cgi-bin/html2x.pl?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.contextga… The program is written in haskell and is also available for download. You can use it to convert markdown to context. I had been looking for this for a while, when multiple formats are needed. Write in markdown and generate html or context. I do not completely like the context output it generates (for example http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/README gets converted to http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/example11.tex.html) Aditya
