\crlf also adds a strut and is less sentitive to those underful messages,

Hi,
As I have read in the file minstall.pdf I have tried to generate polish
format by:
texexec --make --language=pl,uk --bodyfont=plr en
However in the log file I see:
language : language en is active
("en" instead of "pl")
What do I do wrong?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
possibly a trivial question, but can't find it anywhere:
How do I get the term "C++" into an index? Unfortunately ConTeXT interprets the "+" as a separator for indexed terms and I did not find a way to escape it
that did not confuse the index mechanism.
Another remark:
In my view "texutil --purge" should also delete the ...tuo file because
otherwise ConTeXt does not recover from a defective index entry.
Ciao, Matthias

Hi,
for chart users: i found a bug in mp-chrt.mp (must be a quite old one):
for i=1 upto max_x :
for j=1 upto max_y : % was bug: xfrom,yto
if not ( ( (i,j)=(xfrom,yfrom) ) or ( (i,j)=(xto,yto) ) ) :
it results in the wrong conclusion about lines crossing shapes, so if you
encounter that situation, patch and regenerate metafun

Hi ConTeXters,
I've been using the MPGraph part of MetaPost and its corresponding m-
graph ConTeXt module this week. I've been getting very attractive results
that I will encourage my partner to use in her PhD.
I was baffled for a while why I could get graphing to work beautifully in
one directory, but in no others. I finally tracked it down to the system
requiring texnum.mpx in the current working directory. I believe this
file contains the MP-ified numbers that MPGraph puts on the axes.
…
[View More]My question is: why should this be? I *think* I have done everything else
necessary to get MP working in ConTeXt. How can I automatically generate
texnum.mpx in a way that 1) another user doesn't have to worry about it
or 2) it sits in the path permanently?
Some system details: I'm running a fresh TeXLive 7 install, with the
latest ConTeXt from the website. I have \write18 enabled,
\runMPfraphicstrue, \runMPTEXgraphicstrue, and MPXCOMMAND = texexec --
mptex. On the slightly unusual side, I have \forceMPTEXgraphictrue, which
seemed necessary at one point, and no \recycleMPslotstrue, which seemed
unnecessary.
I'm thrilled with the integration of MetaPost's Graph capabilities,
beyond this strange behaviour that took a long time to track down. It was
very easy to get very attractive results from simple data files.
As a side question, would I have to fiddle with texmf/metapost/base/
texnum.mp to affect the font of the x- and y-axis numbers on an MPGraph
plot? They seem to stick to CMR no matter what I do to defaultfont in
MetaPost.
Thanks,
adam

Hi.
I'm just starting to look at detailed TeX stuff. I'd like to write some
ConTeXt-style macros to support a user. I've already wrapped some MPGraph
functions in some old-fashioned TeX-style multiple-argument macros, but I
would like to offer my user something more modern and ConTeXt-like.
Does anyone have any hints on looking at the ConTeXt code for writing
modules? Any hints on achieving Hans-like \dodododo zen? Ik heb een
beetje nederlands, but finding mappings between nl-commando's and …
[View More]en-
commands is still elusive when trying to decode some multilingual sources.
So I know it's too much to ask to get inside Hans's brilliant mind, but I
was wondering if some power-users can offer some hints in terms of
starting to understand the style of the sources.
Thanks,
adam
