I just do it outside the document in a Makefile because I'm used to doing that sort of thing. I imagine the only uncompromised way to extract an svn revision (or revision range) that covers the whole document accurately is to write a script that extracts the source file names from the previous logfile (or somewhere), individually determines their revision using "svn status" (to get modified status), and constructs an overall result. I guess some embedded Lua could do that pretty easily and portably. It would also catch files that are often outside the immediate document directory (in particular, bib files). > Ernesto Schirmacher schrieb: >>> If your sources are in svn, then they actually have the same svn- >>> number, after a commit.

An "svn update" does however alter the output of "svnversion", for instance if it indicates a mixed revision (1234:3456), after an update it will be just 3456. Best, Robin

Hi Markus, If your sources are in svn, then they actually have the same svn- number, after a commit. But the numbers in the $Revision$ or $Id$ tags of your working copies are not updated by svn commit. However, if you do an "svn update" after the commit, it should update the numbers. So, you shouldn't need to work out the maximum value. Here, we actually use the output of the "svnversion" command, save it automatically it in a file, and include it in the document. This way, the version number indicates if the document came from checked-in sources, modified sources, or mixed revisions. We don't have a module to do it, just a svnversion > svnversion.tex ; texexec document.tex in the Makefile, and on the document front page somewhere \doiffileelse{svnversion.tex}{ Subversion revision \ignorespaces \input svnversion\relax \removeunwantedspaces . \crlf }{} Cheers, Robin > Hi Aditya, > > thanks for your reply.

JavaScript conflicts
by Zhichu Chen 23 Jan '08

23 Jan '08

Hi, I was trying to make a report for my job last year. I did some javascript things to put a clock at each page of my presentation to make sure I'll finish it in time. But I found some tricky conflicting between my script and the one in java-stp.tex OK, here is my test file (it's a little too long): ================================ \usemodule [pre-60] \setuppapersize[S6][S6] \setuppagenumbering[state=start,location=] \setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch] \setupinteractionscreen [option=max] \setupinteraction[state=start,click=no,menu=on] \startJSpreamble functions used now font.Digital = "Courier-Bold" ; function start_clock() { this.getField("time.clock").value = util.printd("HH:MM:ss", new Date()); this.getField("time.clock").readonly = true ; this.getField("time.clock").textColor = color.red ; this.getField("time.clock").textSize = 13 ; this.getField("time.clock").textFont = font.Digital ; this.dirty = false } var timeout = app.setInterval("start_clock()",1000); \stopJSpreamble % Field of clock \useJSscripts[fld] \definefield [time.clock] [line] [TimeLogo] \setupfield [TimeLogo] [horizontal,frame] [width=fit,height=25pt,background=, backgroundcolor=,frame=off] [width=5.2cm,frame=off] [width=5.2cm,frame=off,style=type] \dorecurse{\totalnumberofpages}{\copyfield[time.clock ][clock::\recurselevel]} \def\clock{\field[clock::\pagenumber]} \setupfootertexts[{\color[white]\tfxx \midaligned{\rlap{\currentdate} \hfill TITLE\hfill \llap{AUTHOR}}}] \setuplayout[bottomspace=.8cm, bottom=12pt] \startinteractionmenu[bottom] {\interactionbar[alternative=f,width=\makeupwidth,height=1ex]} \stopinteractionmenu \setupfooter[state=start] \starttext \field[time.clock] \field[clock::\pagenumber] page number is \pagenumber. % \StartSteps % \starttabulate % \NC test \FlushStep \NC test \FlushStep \NC \NR % \NC test \FlushStep \NC test \FlushStep \NC \NR % \NC test \FlushStep \NC test \FlushStep \NC \NR % \stoptabulate % \StopSteps \page \field[clock::\pagenumber] page number is \pagenumber. \page \field[clock::\pagenumber] page number is \pagenumber. \page \field[clock::\pagenumber] page number is \pagenumber. \stoptext ================================ This is just a test file, I will put those fields into \setupfootertexts or somewhere else to make every page a clock. If I uncomment the \StartSteps . . . \StopSteps part, some PDF layer kind of error will show and nothing is generated. Do I have to remove the clock to make the fancy stepwise thing or keep the clock but lost the stepwise function of ConTeXt? -- Best Regards Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------- Zhi-chu Chen | Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility No. 2019 | Jialuo Rd. | Jiading | Shanghai | P.R.

porting database module to MK IV
by Mojca Miklavec 23 Jan '08

23 Jan '08

Hello Hans (and Taco), In case you run out of challenges, there is one thing that might be handy to have in MK IV: the database module for typesetting tables (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/M-database, there is no hurry though.) The benchmark is here: http://dl.contextgarden.net/myway/csv.tex but the first thing that fails is already \usetypescript [palatino][\defaultencoding] \setupbodyfont [palatino,10pt] inside s-mag-01.tex. Thanks a lot, Mojca

Superscript text size
by morgan.brassel＠free.fr 22 Jan '08

22 Jan '08

Hi, The superscript in expressions like $R^N$ seems to be typeset with a bigger font size in ConTeXt than in LaTeX. Is it the wanted behaviour? From the typographic point of view, which is the best of the two renderings? Thanks for your advice, Morgan

Indenting with ConTeXt
by morgan.brassel＠free.fr 22 Jan '08

22 Jan '08

Hi, I'm very new to ConTeXt and I've got some (probably naive) questions about indenting. 1. According to the ConTeXt Excursion, using \setupindenting[medium] should lead to indented paragraph. And actually, at least for me, it doesn't... I saw examples on the wiki with \setupindenting[yes,medium]: this actually works, but the 'yes' option is not documented for the \setupindenting command on texshow. What am I missing here? Is the \indenting command needed even to indent the whole document? It is not what I understood from the Excursion... 2. I have not been able to indent the first paragraph after a \section (or any other titling) command. Isn't it the role of the 'first' option for \setupindenting? Is a trick needed to have it work? Thanks in advance for your answers, Morgan \setupindenting[medium,first] \starttext This paragraph is not indented. It becomes indented when I add the (undocumented?) 'yes' option to \setupindenting. \section{A section} How to get this one indented (in the whole document)? \stoptext

Bug with command \to in captions
by morgan.brassel＠free.fr 22 Jan '08

22 Jan '08

Hi, The simple example: \starttext \placefigure[][]{$x \to 0$}{My figure} \stoptext does not compile, whether it's on my installation or on the live interface. It seems that there is a problem with using \to in captions... Or maybe I'm missing something... Morgan

(Most) stable minimal for Mac Intel
by Oliver Buerschaper 21 Jan '08

21 Jan '08

Hi folks, after hesitating for a while I've decided to take the plunge and dive into LuaTeX finally. I'm just a bit confused about what the most stable release of LuaTeX is at the moment and where to get it ... from Pragma or the garden? There is a minimal distribution dated 2007-08-08 at Pragma but it appears slightly outdated ... shall I still get this one or is there a later version which also runs more or less smoothly? I'd be glad if someone pointed me to the "right" minimal ... by the way, my machine is an Intel Mac equipped with Leopard. Thanks for your help, Oliver
