Hi all, I use : TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texexec : TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeXk, 3.141592-1.30.4-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5) context : ver: 2006.01.28 10:09 cont-en : ver: 2005.10.27 fmt: 2005.12.2 mes: english total run time : 2 seconds with m-bib-beta-20051123b and my problem is that: % in environment \setupheadtext[fr][pubs=Bibliographie] % in a product \startfrontmatter ... \completecontent[alternative=c,criterium=all,interaction=all] ... \stopfrontmatter ... \startbackmatter % in a product \completepublications[criterium=all,interaction=all] \stopbackmatter doesn't give any "Bibliographie" entry when I call \completecontent I have read the bib user manual. It is said that the normal behavior of \completecontent + \completepublications gives an entry in toc... Cheers, Renaud

Dear list, I've finished my first complete score created with lily + context. It will be (should be) performed by the percussionist of the Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale Rai (the National Television Orchestra) on february . (Apart from the music....) Wow, everybody seeing it and used to Finale, Sibelius, etc, is deeply impressed. Me too, I have happily to say. Here you can see it: http://www.semiotiche.it/andrea/membrana/Iscrizioni/pdf/iscrizioni.pdf ConTeXt is obviously mentioned in the credit box. Many thanks to the community for support Best -a- Andrea Valle DAMS - Facoltà di Scienze della Formazione Università degli Studi di Torino http://www.semiotiche.it/andrea andrea.valle(a)unito.it

Still problem with \eqalign
by Matthias Weber 31 Jan '06

31 Jan '06

Using the iinstaller CoNtExt version of today which contains the newest (?) core-mat.tex with the fixed \eqalign, I still run into a problem with a standard \eqalign like \starttext \placeformula[-] \startformula \eqalign{ c:[0,2\pi] &\to R^2 \cr t &\mapsto (a\cos(t), b\sin(t)) } \stopformula \stoptext ---> ! Illegal unit of measure (pt inserted). <to be read again> { \eqalign ...ildeqalign \null \,\vcenter {\openup { .25\bodyfontsize } \mathsur... l.124 } ? Matthias, desolate :)

\startalign problem
by Sebastian Sturm 31 Jan '06

31 Jan '06

Hello, using the latest 2006/1/29 version of i-Installer's ConTeXt package, I get an error message reading ! Missing \endgroup inserted. <inserted text> \endgroup <to be read again> \halign \aligneqalignno ->\prepareeqalignno \halign \ifcase \eqalignmode \or to \dis... <to be read again> x for the very simple input file \starttext \startformula \startalign x \stopalign \stopformula \stoptext. Examples included in core-mat also won't compile. The last i-Installer distribution (don't remember the release date) didn't show this behaviour. Best regards, Sebastian Sturm

\showbodyfont
by andrea valle 31 Jan '06

31 Jan '06

Hi to all, I started taking a look to fonts. Actually installation is out of my possibilities but I won't give up so easily... In any case, I was trying to understand which fonts are actually available on my context installation. How do I make \showbodyfont display all available families? Directly: are there other ways to explore available fonts? Thanks a lot Best -a- Andrea Valle DAMS - Facoltà di Scienze della Formazione Università degli Studi di Torino http://www.semiotiche.it/andrea andrea.valle(a)unito.it

Re: [NTG-context] font encodings (glyph lossed with Gentium in T5)

I loss a glyph which I dont know the name. Its shot is at : http://people.vnoss.org/~vnpenguin/pub/shots/gentium-dd.png It seems that you use Gentium 1.01. With Gentium 1.02 in my box, I could use this glyph no problem (the shot was done with Gentium 1.02 in Leafpad editor). I try to replace your ttf by 1.02 release by modifying map file. But this does not help. Maybe we need to recreate files with 1.02 ? Thank you, -- http://vnoss.org Vietnamese Open Source Software Community

footnotes
by Hans van der Meer 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

At the end of the text (or chapter) the last batch of footnotes is not always placed, not even when an index follows. They must be forced with \placefootnotes. It happened both with footnotes bytext and bychapter. Is this the normal behaviour? Must I end (for footnotes bychapter) each chapter with \placefootnotes? yours sincerely, dr. H. van der Meer

Problem with German quotes and kerning
by Thomas A. Schmitz 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

Hi all, this seems to be a general TeX-problem, not ConTeXt specific, but I'm not sure I understand the details. Here's the problem: when I use mainlanguage[de], I can type "` to get German opening quotes, \quotedblbase „. However, this characters needs some (a lot of) kerning when it comes before, e.g., W or V; it is too far away from the following character. Most font-designers don't care about German typography, so I tried and added the kerning manually. But this works only if I input the character directly via the keyboard or via the symbolic name, it does not work with "` (nor with \quotation{ }); language German seems to make the ` active. In emacs, I find "` the most convenient way to input German quotes. Is there a way to have kerning with this input, or do I have to change my habits? Best Thomas

request about combinations
by Hans van der Meer 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

A modest request, that is probably in principle not too difficult to fulfil. With many commands (\framed for example) I can do a setup for general behaviour and do something special at the actual call. Like this: \setupframed[options...] \framed[individual options ...] It would be pleasant if I could do the same with combinations, but there I do not get to work a similar behaviour: \setupcombinations[align=middle,location=top] \startcombination[2*1][location=middle] Is it an option for Hans to build this into the code? It would also make ConTeXt's behaviour more regular if every command that has a \setupcommand[options] would always allow \command[options]. If some have it and some not it "strains the brain". yours sincerely, dr. H. van der Meer
