Hi contexers, I got a recurrent problem with tables : the setup of the first one affect following other and different setup tables. See an exemple below : \usemodule[units] \useregime[il1] \enableregime[il1] \useencoding[ffr] \mainlanguage[fr] \setupcolors[state=start] \definecolor [Grisbleu] [r=0.91,g=0.91,b=0.93] \setupitemize[each][headstyle=\bfa] \starttext \chapter[chapreponses]{Answers} \section[]{baobab baobab baobab \quote{baobabbaobabbaobab}} \startitemize[A] \head rooooooooooooooooootsssssssss \setupTABLE[row][1][style=\bfxx,frame=on,align={middle,lohi}] \setupTABLE[1][5][style=\bfx,align=middle] \setupTABLE[2][5][style=\bf,background=color,backgroundcolor=Grisbleu,align={middle,lohi}] \bTABLE[align=lohi,width=broad,style=tfxx] \bTR \bTD Condition \eTD \bTD Vérification \eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD maison non climatisée \eTD \bTD OK \eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD dont la surface habitable est inférieure à 220 m\high{2} \eTD \bTD OK \eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD dont la surface des portes et fenêtres est inférieure à 25 \% de la surface habitable \eTD \bTD OK \eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD Conclusion : \eTD \bTD OK \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \head Isolation of soils, walls and ceilings % \resetTABLE %------------------------------ NOT WORKING !!! \setupTABLE[row][1][style=\bfxx,frame=on,align={middle,lohi}] \setupTABLE[c][1][align={middle,lohi}] \setupTABLE[c][3][width=.5\textwidth] \setupTABLE[1][8][style=\bfx,align=middle] \setupTABLE[5][8][style=\bf,background=color,backgroundcolor=Grisbleu,align={middle,lohi}] \bTABLE[align=lohi,width=broad,style=tfxx] \bTR \bTD Nivel \eTD \bTD Paroi \eTD \bTD Insulation system \eTD \bTD Value {\bf R} \eTD \bTD goto page \dots \eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD [nr=3] R-1 \eTD \bTD sol \eTD \bTD floormate 200 ({\sc Isover}) ep. 60 sous dallage BA\eTD \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 40 (cours)\eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD mur \eTD \bTD néant \eTD \bTD \eTD \bTD \eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD plafond \eTD \bTD entrevous polystyrène rectofibre ({\sc Rector}) \eTD \bTD K = 0,31 $\dashrightarrow$ R = 3,22, feu : M1\eTD \bTD 41 (ctrl)\eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD [nr=3] R+0 \eTD \bTD sol \eTD \bTD dito plafond R-1 \eTD \bTD 2 \eTD \bTD 40 (cours)\eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD mur \eTD \bTD doublage Xtherm 32 (100+13) ({\sc Knauf})\eTD \bTD 3,15\eTD \bTD 8 (ctrl)\eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD plafond \eTD \bTD Laine verre IBR monocouche ({\sc Isover}) ep. 240 \eTD \bTD 6 \eTD \bTD 40 (cours)\eTD\eTR \bTR \bTD [nc=4] Nombre de points : \eTD \bTD 5 \eTD\eTR \eTABLE \head Ponts thermiques \startitemize[n] \item Ponts thermiques entre les murs extérieurs et les planchers \item dont la surface habitable est inférieure à 220 \Square\Meter \item dont la surface des portes et fenêtres est inférieure à 25 \% de la surface habitable \stopitemize \head \head \stopitemize \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%ù The unwanted setup is on the second table, on the c2-r5 cell (sol).

nath: \wall and \return doesn't work?
by Christopher Creutzig 19 Oct '04

19 Oct '04

Salvete, \usemodule[nath] \starttext \startformula F(\beta, E_{min}, E_{max}, m) = \wall\{0,\infty,-\infty\} \return \cup \left\{\left.s\,\beta^e\sum_{i=0}^{m}a_i\beta^{-i}\right\vert s\in\{-1,1\}, 0\leq a_i<\beta, e\in\integers, E_{min}\leq e\leq E_{max}\right\}. \stopformula \stoptext I thought the \return were to go to the horizontal position of the \wall, in the next line? For me, both lines are flush left. pdftex 1.20a, ConTeXt 2004.10.07, t-nath.tex 2003.12.08, with the patches I sent to this list. regards, Christopher

Hi Hans, hi all, it seems, that the commands: \usemodule[chi-simplified] \usemodule[chi-traditional] do nothing. They are pointing to files s-chi-01.tex and s-chi-02.tex which are not present. How can i have access to the traditional chinese characters? Greetings Lutz

Miktex blues
by David Arnold 17 Oct '04

17 Oct '04

All, I still need a copy of runperl.exe if anyone has one. Meanwhile, I've got a repeatable weirdness I hope someone can explain. If I set these lines in my texexec.ini: % set TeXFormatPath to f:/localtexmf/miktex/fmt % ConTeXtPath texmf/tex/context/base sources % SetupPath texmf/tex/base/user cont-sys/usr file % TeXScriptsPath texmf/context/perltk scripts % TeXFontsPath texmf font files % % set MpFormatPath to f:/localtexmf/miktex/mem % % == the main shell setting == % % As shown below, one can define his/her own sections. We default to % the teTeX/fpTeX web2c based settings. %set TeXShell to tetex %set TeXShell to fptex set TeXShell to miktex %set TeXShell to private Then: f: cd \miktex\scripts\context\perl perl texexec.pl --make en nl The formats get created and can be found on f:\. If I cut them and paste them into f:\localtexmf\miktex\fmt, then the test file junk.tex will compile. %testfile: junk.tex \starttext \framed {Let�s see if it works.} \stoptext Now, if I make these changes to texexec.ini: set TeXFormatPath to f:/localtexmf/miktex/fmt % ConTeXtPath texmf/tex/context/base sources % SetupPath texmf/tex/base/user cont-sys/usr file % TeXScriptsPath texmf/context/perltk scripts % TeXFontsPath texmf font files % set MpFormatPath to f:/localtexmf/miktex/mem % % == the main shell setting == % % As shown below, one can define his/her own sections. We default to % the teTeX/fpTeX web2c based settings. %set TeXShell to tetex %set TeXShell to fptex set TeXShell to miktex %set TeXShell to private Then: f: cd \miktex\scripts\context\perl perl texexec.pl --make en nl In this case, the format files get deposited where they should go, namely in f:\localtexmf\miktex\fmt. However, when I now compile my test file junk.tex: F:\miktex\scripts\context\perl>perl texexec.pl junk TeXExec 5.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004 executable : pdfetex format : f:/localtexmf/miktex/fmt/cont-en inputfile : junk output : standard interface : en current mode : none TeX run : 1 This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.10b-2.1 (MiKTeX 2.3) initexmf: don't know how to dump miktex cannot make f:/localtexmf/miktex.efmt I can't find the default format file! return code : 256 run time : 1 seconds total run time : 1 seconds How's that for weird? Can anyone tell me what's going on?

Visiting Context Again --- Math
by David Arnold 16 Oct '04

16 Oct '04

All, I'd like to pick up Context again. I have some colleagues at work who are getting new MacIntoshes and I'd like to form a group to do some articles and activities for our students. Two questions: 1. Has anyone experience with TeXShop and Context? Any special things I need to know to set it up? Any things to watch out for? 2. I understand there are some new math modules, nath and something Hans called newmat. Where can I find the documentation for these modules? Any pointers and links will be appreciated. Thanks.
