Gotcha!

Hello, I found it! My global settings for mswincotext work now, and here is the reason they failed before. I copied the pathes to temp dirs from the .bat file output, where they were DOS-truncated, e.g. c:/DOCUME~... Those tildes were expanded by luatex as \CCC, so that lua failed to reach temp dirs. I just wonder how intolerant it was not to warn user about this occasion. Now I'm in progress of creating an installer for mswincontext. At the moment it is a stand-alone .exe file that sets up global envinronment variables. In principle, I can even create full installer, which would be very appealing to Windows users. Best, Vyatcheslav

Hello, Let me share my installer for MSWinContext. The archive contains installer and source code. http://rapidshare.com/files/51816047/context-installer-1.0.zip After you unpacked MSWinContext onto your hard drive, copy context_reg_install.exe into \context\tex folder and run it there. Any questions/suggestions? ;) -- Best regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

OK, so here is what you need to do to install the non-existing "minimals": Step 1: download from PRAGMA: wget -c http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/install/justtex.zip wget -c http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/install/linuxtex.zip unzip justtex.zip unzip linuxtex.zip Step 2: download binaries from TeXLive 2007 and prepare a freebsd binary folder cd tex mkdir texmf-freebsd cd texmf-freebsd svn co svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk/Master/bin/i386-freebsd mv i386-freebsd bin # perhaps also chmod 755 bin/* mv ../texmf-linux/web2c . cd .. rm -r texmf-linux Step 3: patch setuptex Find the following ines in setuptex: export TEXARCH=`uname -m` export TEXUNIX=`uname -s` if [ "$TEXARCH" = "x86_64" ] ; then export TEXMFOS=$TEXROOT/texmf-linux-64 ; fi if [ "$TEXUNIX" = "Darwin" ] ; then export TEXMFOS=$TEXROOT/texmf-macosx ; fi and add a hardcoded line below them export TEXMFOS=$TEXROOT/texmf-freebsd Step 4: First setup Run . setuptex mktexlsr texexec --make --all texexec --make --all --xtx # don't worry about those below yet if they don't work luatools --generate texexec --make --all --lua Step 5: compile your document cd your-folder texexec your-file Step 6: next time cd folder-with-setuptex . setuptex (I've put that command to .bashrc) If you want TeXLive 2007: svn co svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk/Master ./install-live.sh You can install it in such a way that it doesn't interfere with your old system.

Hi, I uploaded a new version of mkiv (regular zip). - attribute based color support, thanks to peter rolf for extensive testing of metapost related issues (colo-new.* files, original colo-ini still present do deleting the new ones brings you the old mechanism) - intercharacter spacing based on attributes and node processing - pre/post character spacing (for french) using similar mechanism - case changing using attributes and node processing simple test file for spacing and casing: \starttext test: oeps {\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] x: xx \bfd x: xx} oeps: test test \WORD{test TEST \TeX} test test \word{test TEST \TeX} test test \Word{test TEST \TeX} test {\setcharacterkerning[extrakerning]\input zapf\endgraf } {\setcharacterkerning[extrakerning]bla bla||bla bla effe fietsen} \hbox{\setcharacterkerning[extrakerning]fietsen} \hbox{\setcharacterkerning[extrakerning]fiet\-sen} \hbox{\setcharacterkerning[extrakerning]} \hbox{\setcharacterkerning[extrakerning]f} \hbox{\setcharacterkerning[extrakerning]fi} \stoptext Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

cweb-scr.pdf and m-cweb
by John Luciani 28 Aug '07

28 Aug '07

Are the source files that were used to create cweb-scr.pdf on the http://www.pragma-ade.com site available for download? I am trying to get ConTeXt working on a cweaved TeX file and am getting an Undefined control sequence error. A working example (especially the source for the cweb-scr files) would be extremely useful. Thanks. (* jcl *) -- http://www.luciani.org
