bib module fails to produce publication list under certain conditions
by Jesse Alama 16 Sep '07

16 Sep '07

I recently came across an unusual error with the bib module: depending on the section structure of a document, the publication list is sometimes not produced. I've attached a simple document and a one-entry bib file that illustrates the error. If either the second section of the subsection is commented out, the publication list is produced; if both are uncommented, the publication list is not produced. What might be going on? Thanks, Jesse -- Jesse Alama (alama(a)stanford.edu)

pdfopen pdfclose
by Idris Samawi Hamid 16 Sep '07

16 Sep '07

Hi Hans and gang, For a future ConTeXt, would it be possible to add support for the --back option for pdfopen/pdfclose? See http://magic.aladdin.cs.cmu.edu/2005/07/15/pdfopen-and-pdfclose/ This will allow you to automatically return to the page of the pdf you were working on at the moment you close it. There are some caveats for working with mutiple pdf's but it's a nice feature to have.

by Olivier 15 Sep '07

15 Sep '07

Hi all, Is this normal behavior to have the framed text in \bTABLE \bTR \bTD[width=4cm,align=middle] \framed[width=2cm]{test} \eTD \eTR \eTABLE not aligned? If yes, what is a natural way to center the framed text in the cell? Thanks, Olivier

Re: [NTG-context] need help for the installation of luatools
by Dalyoung Jeong 15 Sep '07

15 Sep '07

Thank you, Thomas, Arthur, and Taco, I checked texmf.cnf. There are two texmf.cnf gwTeX/texmf.cnf ---> there is no code for the memory setup, it just describe the TDS structure. gwTeX/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf ---> trie_size = 400000 gwTeX/texmf.local/web2c/ no texmf.cnf Gerben made other cnf file(he said that it is for the context). gwTeX/texmf.pkgs/web2c/{context.cnf, natural.ctx} ---> trie_size.context = 500000 The result of "kpsewhich texmf.cnf" is /usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.cnf. And "kpsewhich --expand-var = '$TEXMF' shows the directory system of gwTeX. At this moment, I don't know what I can do. I'll test it more after changing the memory setup. Thank you again. Best regards, Dalyoung

\coloneqq
by Jesse Alama 15 Sep '07

15 Sep '07

I'd like to use a colon-equals sign symbol to indicate a definition. According to The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List, this symbol is available in the txfonts (LaTeX) package. However, it seems that the txfonts support in ConTeXt doesn't contain that symbol. And, in any case, a search for \coloneqq on the wiki gave no results. Perhaps the symbol I want isn't called coloneqq in ConTeXt, or perhaps the symbol is currently missing. How can I get this symbol in my ConTeXt document? Thanks for your help, Jesse -- Jesse Alama (alama(a)stanford.edu)

fret-diagrams in Lilypond + ConTeXt
by Mikael Persson 14 Sep '07

14 Sep '07

Hi all, I have problems getting fret-diagrams working in Lilypond+ConTeXt. The following works in lilypond \markup \fret-diagram #"s:0.75;f:1;6-x;5-x;4-o;3-2-1;2-3-3;1-2-2;" However, the following does not work in ConTeXt: \usemodule[lilypond] \starttext \startlilypond \markup \fret-diagram #"s:0.75;f:1;6-x;5-x;4-o;3-2-1;2-3-3;1-2-2;" \stoplilypond \stoptext I have ConTeXt ver: 2007.08.08 14:35 MKII fmt: 2007.8.26 int: english/english Lilypond version 2.10.5 and the Lilypond ConTeXt module t-lilypond-2007.09.02.zip The examples on the wiki works well, and the problem seems to be that \fret-diagram is written as \fret -diagram (note the space) in the .tmp file, and thus producing the error(?) Any ideas? Best regards, Micke P

I don't understand this example. The output is identical for the three variants. Does it mean that they are all equivalent? What should \rescan do? What happend with the command \luatex?

Why is it not possible to use palatino? The font is installed by default, Pagella is not. There should be a fallback to palatinno in this case. Wolfgang

ConTeXt on device with ARM processor
by Martin maaca Rehula 14 Sep '07

14 Sep '07

Hi, I have Nokia N800. It is a Linux (Debian-based) "PDA" with an ARM processor and only LaTeX package. I would like to install the minimal ConTeTt distribution on it, but I haven't found binaries for this architecture. Can I find these binaries somewhere? I like minimal ConTeXt distribution, becose it isn't too big and it works well. But if you have a better idea, how to install ConTeXt to my device, I'd like to try it. Thanks maaca
