Russian letters transliterated
by Arkady Shraer 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

Hello, I updated ConTeXt as in "updating context on Ubuntu 6.06" post and it worked, moreover I got russian hyphenation working out of the box. But I have a little problem: all my cyrillic letters displayed as transliterated latin letters (or letter codes). What should I do in this case? Arkady

Bug in ctxtools --documentation
by Aditya Mahajan 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

Hi Hans, ctxtools.rb says that %D is the documetation marker. However, while matching it uses when /^[%\#]D/io then Doesn't /i stand for ignorecase, which means that %d is also matched? Is this a bug or a feature? Try generating documentation of core-fnt.tex for an interesting manifestation of this. You have %def\uppercased#1{{\forceunexpanded\xdef\@@globalcrap{\uppercase{#1}}}\@@globalcrap} %def\lowercased#1{{\forceunexpanded\xdef\@@globalcrap{\lowercase{#1}}}\@@globalcrap} %d gets matched, %de gets deleted and the following is written in core-fnt.ted \startdocumentation f\uppercased#1{{\forceunexpanded\xdef\@@globalcrap{\uppercase{#1}}}\@@globalcrap} f\lowercased#1{{\forceunexpanded\xdef\@@globalcrap{\lowercase{#1}}}\@@globalcrap} \stopdocumentation when context processes this it complains !

calling texmfstart from perl in context distribution
by David Arnold 30 Jul '06

30 Jul '06

All, I have cdwincontext installed and I am trying to run texmfstart from a perl script on windows. I tried associating file extension .rb with the ruby that comes with the context distro. Am I missing something here? #!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; my $os; if ($^O =~ /darwin/i || $^O =~ /linux/i) { $os = 'nix'; } else { $os = 'win'; } my $TMS; if ($os eq 'nix') { $TMS='/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/scripts/context/ruby/ texmfstart.rb'; } elsif ($os eq 'win') { $TMS = 'c:\isoimage\usr\local\context\tex\texmf-local\scripts\context \ruby\texmfstart.rb'; } opendir my $dirH, '.'; while ($_ = readdir $dirH) { next if $_ =~ /^\.+/; next unless $_ =~ /^section\d+figs\.tex$/; for my $run ('first','second') { print "Processing file $_ ($run run)\n"; `$TMS texexec $_`; } } closedir $dirH;

regexp for matching entire footnotes
by Steffen Wolfrum 30 Jul '06

30 Jul '06

Hi, I have to find (highlight) footnotes with the entire footnote being marked/highlighted. Constructing a regexp for this is far beyond what I can write, that's why I frankly ask for help here: The problems are the (potentially) nested pairs of curled brackets (like for \index, \emphasize etc etc) ... \footnote{Vgl. zur Historie \it{Name}, „Staatssekretär\index {Staatssekretär}} ... as the found string shouldn't stop at the first "}" that was found. Somebody knows a syntax that ignores curled bracket pairs *included* in footnotes and really matches the entire note? Steffen

"(" before and ")" after the sectionnumber. How and where is this called? Steffen

sorting commalist?
by Hans van der Meer 30 Jul '06

30 Jul '06

In the article "Context System macros, part1: general macros" there are all sorts of interesting and useful macros. Among these I have set my eye on the processing of commalists. Question: is there a context macro that takes a commalist (either in a token register or \the\tokenregister form) that returns a sorted commalist (ascending or descending doesnt matter to me for the moment). If someone will be so kind to point one out to me. A scan through the sources didn't bring an obvious candidate to my attention although I feel there must be one, but I may overlooking it.
