Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt and Aleph

Hi, as there seemed to be interactions between ConTeXt that comes with TeXLive and the recent one I've installed, I finally deleted EVERYTHING and started anew. -> I installed TeXLive on a WinXP - without the ConTeXt option. -> I copied the saved texec.exe in TeXLive's /bin folder -> I installed bin-aleph-1.15--2.2--RC2-win32.zip from CTAN -> I executed the following comands: mktexlsr fmtutil --all mktexlsr texexec --make --all --alone --tex=aleph mktexlsr texexec alephtest1.tex --tex=aleph --output=dpx But again it failed and ended in "*". There ought to be people out there who got Aleph (+ConTeXt) working. How did you do that? Could someone please have a look and tell what is wrong? Thank you very much, Steffen C:\STEFFEN\Neuer_Ordner>texexec alephtest1.tex --tex=aleph --output=dpx TeXExec 5.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004 executable : aleph format : cont-en inputfile : alephtest1 output : dvipdfmx interface : en current mode : none TeX run : 1 This is Alephk, Version 3.141592--1.15--2.1--RC3 (Web2c 7.5.3) %&-line parsing enabled.

How to implement a changing navigation bar?
by Stefan Wachter 23 Sep '04

23 Sep '04

Hi all, I use an overlay to implement a navigation bar in the left margin of a document. It seems to me that the processing of the overlay is done only once and not for every page again. In addition, the \lastpage is not available. Does anyone know a solution? Maybe headers/footers are a solution. But how is absolute positioning accomplished with them? Thanks for your attention, --Stefan PS: Here is my current implementation: \definelayer[navbar] \setupbackgrounds[text][leftmargin][background=navbar] \setlayer[navbar][x=0cm,y=10cm]{\the\pageno}

Part number in formula numbers?
by Giuseppe Bilotta 23 Sep '04

23 Sep '04

Hello, what I'm trying to achieve is a way to have formula numbers contain the part number together with the chapter number, as in: a = b (part.chapter.formula) instead of a = b (chapter.formula) which is what you have by default, or a = b (part.formula) which is the only alternative I manage to obtain. How can I do it? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta

{ or } is not matched
by wei jm 22 Sep '04

22 Sep '04

Hi, All I always get the error message while compiling the following simple code \usemodule[pre-01] \starttext \Topic{Eins} \Subject{Eins} \Topic{Zwei} \Subject{Zwei} \Topic{Drei} \Subject{Drei} \stoptext The error message looks like ! Argument of \dogettwopassdata has an extra }. <inserted text> \par <to be read again> } \actualshipout ... -1in \hbox {\setbox 0=\hbox {#1 }\setbox \scratchbox =\hbo... \myshipout ...ut {\thisisrealpage {\realfolio }#1} \fi \gotonextrealpage \nap... \dofinaloutput ...pagebody #1#2\setpagecounters }} \fi \the \everyaftershipou... \finaloutput ...ifgeselecteerd \dofinaloutput #1#2 \else \donofinaloutput #1#... ... l.6 \Subject{Eins} ? h Whey I type h, I get the following information I've run across a `}' that doesn't seem to match anything. For example, `\def\a#1{...}' and `\a}' would produce this error. If you simply proceed now, the `\par' that I've just inserted will cause me to report a runaway argument that might be the root of the problem. But if your `}' was spurious, just type `2' and it will go away. But the problem is every } is matched, there is no extra } or { which is not matched. I am totally confused :-(. Thanks in advance! 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　wei jm 　　　　　　　　wei(a)uni-duisburg.de 　　　　　　　　2004-09-23

u-diaeresis
by ciro 22 Sep '04

22 Sep '04

I use a font for \chapter that does print u-diearesis with \"u. Then I decided to write a small definition \udotdot that uses \char200 to print the diaeresis on top of the letter u. The problem now is that in my table of contents, the font is different, and the \char200 has a different meaning. How do I resolve this problem? thank you Ciro

Is there anyway to answer the messages on this archive without replying to the corresponding received mail? I would like to update a previous post but can't manage to do it. 2. I would like to define a new layout that does not contain left and right margins. This layout is going to divide my page to 4 parts as a matrix of 2x2. How can i do that ? Is there anyway to identify each part of them in the same way as we identify the left and right margins within the default layout ? Is this in relation with margin and opposite blocks ? Many thanks.
