Column problem
by David Arnold 09 Aug '06

09 Aug '06

Hans et al, In making the final pass at our book, I have a problem with the \column command. In trying to start a new column to avoid a widow, I put a \column command at the end of the first of two columns on a page. The result is I get a start of a new column, but it is on a new page. Thus, page 1 has 1 column, the second column is blank, and the rest continues on page 2 in two column format! Help!

by Mojca Miklavec 08 Aug '06

08 Aug '06

Hello, is it possible to mark the files somehow, so that they are deleted in the next run of ctxtools --purge[files]? (I create a lot of temporary files with different macros and would like to get rid of them at the end.) Thanks, Mojca

Hi, is hyphenation by default off in lists? If so, why doesn't align={hyphenated,right} start the hyphening? \starttext %\setuplist[section][align={hyphenated,right}] \completecontent \section{\input tufte} \stoptext Steffen

environment files and indenting
by Sanjoy Mahajan 08 Aug '06

08 Aug '06

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here, but this is the minimal example I could make. The environment file ne.tex contains \startenvironment ne \setupindenting[medium,yes] \stopenvironment And the test file is \environment ne \starttext \placeformula\startformula x = 10 \stopformula \stoptext texexec'ing test.tex says: Overfull \hbox (17.62474pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 4--4 [][] But if I inline the environment file, to get \startenvironment ne \setupindenting[medium,yes] \stopenvironment \starttext \placeformula\startformula x = 10 \stopformula \stoptext then texexec doesn't produce any overfull \hbox. My guess is that the 17.6247pt overage is the amount of medium indenting, and somehow the display math mode is getting confused and trying to indent itself? -Sanjoy

safe way of writing arguments
by Jano Kula 08 Aug '06

08 Aug '06

Hi! Is it safe to leave spare comma at the end of the key=value list or other list of arguments? It is not nice, but when adding/commenting arguments in readable way (one per line) it's faster and while experimenting with parameters one doesn't have to care about the last comma adding or removing it back and forth, for example: \setuplayout[ grid=yes, %header=0mm, footer=7mm, %footerdistance=10mm, %cutspace=12mm, ] or \setuphead[ chapter, section, %subsection, %subsubsection, ][ textstyle=\ss, numberstyle=\ss, ] Thanks.

buffers
by Hans van der Meer 08 Aug '06

08 Aug '06

The ConTeXt manual tells me on page 237: You can define your own buffer with: \definebuffer[...] ... name After this command /getbuffer and \typebuffer are available where buffer is the name of the buffer. I do: \definebuffer[left] \startbuffer[left] left\crlf \stopbuffer \typeleft and it gives me the error: ! Undefined control sequence. \typeleft ->\dodotypebuffer [left][def-3] l.92 \typeleft then I try: \typebuffer[left] this gives a typeset message [file examdoc-def-2.tmp does not exist] (file examdoc.tex being the containing tex file) when I try \getbuffer[left] or \getleft nothing at all seems to happen? Why doesn't it work according to the manual? Or do I misunderstand the manual completely? Hans van der Meer
