Install script not working
by Jairo A. del Rio 27 Jun '21

27 Jun '21

When I try to install ConTeXt with install.sh (Linux 64 bit), the following happens: lua error : function call: /home/coragyps/lmtx/bin/mtxrun.lua:299: bad argument #2 to 'popen' (invalid mode) cp: no se puede efectuar `stat' sobre '/home/coragyps/lmtx/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun': No existe el archivo o el directorio cp: no se puede efectuar `stat' sobre '/home/coragyps/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua': No existe el archivo o el directorio cp: no se puede efectuar `stat' sobre '/home/coragyps/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-install.lua': No existe el archivo o el directorio Messages in Spanish say the directory or file doesn't exist. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance Jairo

by Rik Kabel 27 Jun '21

All, In recent compilations of a document using Antykwa Torunska Condensed (in headings in the margin), I now have no hyphen at a word break, and see the following in the log: fonts > checking > char Â (U+000AD) in font 'AntykwaTorunskaCond-Regular' with id 73: missing Is there a way to restore the hyphen that once appeared? (ConTeXt ver: 2021.06.25 22:49 LMTX). -- Rik

Dear Aditya and Hans, Thank you for your suggestion.

setupquotation[method=font] problem
by Rik Kabel 24 Jun '21

24 Jun '21

I get no quotation marks at all (and no protrusion) with \quotation{text} using \setupquotation[method=font]. This seems to have started earlier this month, but for the record, I am using ConTeXt ver: 2021.06.24 19:19 LMTX. Wolfgang's example from a related thread earlier this month (https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg98669.html) should have quotation marks and protrusion for the third line, matching the second line. \definefontfeature [default] [default] [protrusion=quality,expansion=quality] \setupquotation [method=font] \setupalign[hz,hanging] \starttext oh hi there “you are so” \quotation{you are so} here here \stoptext Similarly with \setupquote. Help, please! -- Rik
