value-copy - e.g. in \textreference
by Peter Schorsch 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hi, during my first tries of context-programming I bounced a couple of times against a problem I am calling myself my value-copy-border. E.g. number is a register/variable that helps numbering some paragraphs. Some of these paragraphs also should be cross-linked. But the pointer gets always the value, number has at the point of the pointer - and not at the point of the marked paragraph. How can I get just the value of a variable? - like currentsection in the example: \definenumber[number] \setuphead[chapter,section,subsection,subsubsection [after={\resetnumber[number]}] \def\MyMark[#1] {\textreference[#1]{Para. \currentheadnumber / \getnumber[number]}} \definestartstop[MyPara] [before= {\blank[medium]\incrementnumber[number]% \inothermargin{\getnumber[number]~}}, after={\blank[medium]}] \starttext \section \startMyPara blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla \stopMyPara \subsection \startMyPara blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla \stopMyPara \startMyPara\MyMark[testmark] blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla blabla \stopMyPara \section The Link should be [Abs. 1.1/2] but is \in[testmark] %unluckily it is [Abs. 1.1/0] \stoptext

how to get a commalist out of {}-brackets
by Peter Schorsch 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hi, I need to forward an embedded commalist to an subfunction. The problem: how can I get rid of the {}-brackets to access the embedded commalist? The functions looks like: \def\function#1[#2] {\getparameters[label][a=,b=,embedded=,#2] subfunction[\labelembedded] ...} \def\subfunction#1[#2] {\getparamters[label][a,c,#1] \labela % will answer with emptyness #2 % returns {a=,c=} ... but I need for the getparamteres a=,c= ...} to call the function: \function[a=etwas,b=ddd,embedded={a=nochWas,c=hope}]

Context replacement for bibitem
by Peter Schorsch 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hi, I have done a little with Context but I am still a beginner. As I can read in the archive of this list, there is no possibility to divide the bibliography into sections by the generated bibliography. If this assumption is true, I would like to enter the bibitems into the normal .tex-file. I was also reading the doc of the context-bib-module but I couldn't find any context-replacement for \bibitem. Headings inside the bibliography are very important for my text and the advantages of bibitem would simplify my data-entering, so I would be happy for any hint/help how to realize this in Context. I don't want to go back to Latex but to declare my problem better: In Latex a simplified example looks like: \begin{document} \section{hamha} asdfklsj fk\cite{key-1} \section{dumdidim} asdfsaff alfs hfdsj\cite{key-2} \begin{thebibliography}{1} \subsection*{hamha} \bibitem{key-1}erstes \subsection*{dumdidim} \bibitem{key-2}zweites \end{thebibliography} \end{document}

verb-c.tex
by Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hallo! I forgot to say that I am using a patched version. See the following discussion: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2006/020934.html The 'verb-c.tex' in the distribution does not work with backslashes at all. In my example the problem is with the '*\0\0' part of the string. I hope that someone can help! Wolfgang

plain tex, context and latex
by Liesbeth van der Plas 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

In context the following plain tex columnscript works all right: %-------------------------- plain tex, Knuth p.232 $$\vbox{\settabs 3\columns \+This is&a srange&example \cr \+of displayed&three-column&format.\cr}$$ %-------------------------- /plain tex In latex it doesn't work. Latex says that \settabs is undefined. Does anyone know why? -- liesbethvanderplas(a)gmail.com www.wiskunde-interactief.nl

Problem with \starttable \stoptable and some math
by WN 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hi, After recompiling a 1-year old document I stumbled on the following (which used to work) Some of math symbols in a table environment are ''ignored'' i.e are not shown. They do work outside the table environment though. I think it has to do with some font switching in the table environment, but cannot verify this. I also tried the bTABLE/eTABLE but same result.

color expansion (not colo-new related)
by Peter Rolf 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

Hi all, I tried to seperate some style specific code to external variables. Most things work so far, but the expansion of color causes me problems. I must emphasize that this is no colo-new problem, as my code fails with the old colo-ini too. I have tried several things, but still no luck. What (expansion) magic is missing in my code? Any help is welcome.

Too small { in the fourier font

Hi all, when using the fourier font I get the wrong size of the opening { in the \startcases \stopcases environment.

Any ideas? Best regards, Micke P
