ConTeXt Linux installation issues (due to GLIBC dependency)
by Ramkumar KB 08 Nov '20

08 Nov '20

Hello All, I am having a situation where I have to install and run Context in a Linux machine but the machine(s) have only RHEL 7.6 (which comes with only GLIBC_2.17). >From the initial error logs it appears that Context needs minimum GLIBC_2.23. Therefore, I did the following work around and it almost worked ! (there were no more GLIBC_2.23 errors and installation was progressing well...) , till it did not... :-( Any tips or suggestions to try would be indeed very helpful. Thanks so much ! *Work Around* - Manually installed GLIBC_2.23 as per the instructions here - in my own directory where I have full access - https://gist.github.com/carlesloriente/ab3387e7d035ed400dc2816873e9089e *Patchelf Utility* Used the patchelf utility - https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/patchelf *Changed the following Context install files* *install.sh (just before running mtxrun)* *===* patchelf --set-interpreter /my-own-dir/opt/glibc-2.23/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --set-rpath /my-own-dir/opt/glibc-2.23/lib:/usr/lib64 $PWD/bin/mtxrun $PWD/bin/mtxrun --script ./bin/mtx-install.lua --update --server="$LMTXSERVER" --instance="$LMTXINSTANCE" --platform="$PLATFORM" --erase --extras="$LMTXEXTRAS" *mtx-install.lua (just before running mtxrunbin)* ==== run("patchelf --set-interpreter /my-own-dir/opt/glibc-2.23/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --set-rpath /my-own-dir/opt/glibc-2.23/lib:/usr/lib64 %s", mtxrunbin) run("%s --generate",mtxrunbin) *Error that I see (in the step `make luametatex format`) - * resolvers | formats | changing to format path '/my-own-dir /ConTeXt/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f3 2e/formats/luametatex' resolvers | formats | executing runner 'make luametatex format': / my-own-dir/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/luametatex --ini --lua=/my-own-dir/chantool/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/luat-cod.lmt /my-own-dir/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-en. mkxl This is LuaMetaTeX, Version 2.08.01 2097153(/my-own-dir/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-en.mkxl(context.mkxl(syst-ini.m kxl !

\section with userdata
by Sylvain Hubert 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Dear List, it is known that we can supply additional userdata like authors to \startsection: \startsection[title=Title][author=Someone] so that the author can be included in the table of contents using \structurelistuservariable{author}. Now I would like to do the same with \section, but according to the wiki <https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/_section>, \section doesn't seem to accept any additional parameters like \startsection does. Does anyone know whether there is a workaround to let \section accept userdata parameters? Thanks! Best, Sylvain

Works in ConTeXt, fails in LMTX
by ntg＠scorecrow.com 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Some more details on the font inclusion problem I posted about the other day. This code: ---begin--- \definefont[fontCoverTitle][name:brushwood at 94pt] \starttext This text in default font. \fontCoverTitle{EXAMPLE} \stoptext ---end--- works as expected in ConTeXt ver: 2020.03.10 14:44 MKIV beta fmt: 2020.4.18 int: english/english but fails (the brushwood font isn't included) in ConTeXt ver: 2020.11.05 23:01 LMTX fmt: 2020.11.7 int: english/english If I change the font name to "heros" then it works in both. So I re-ran mtxrun --script fonts --reload and mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=brush lists brushwood and brushwoodsemi but it still fails. So I'm not quite sure what to look at next.

by Tommaso Gordini 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Hello to all. I am writing to you just to know if the following code, with which I would like to activate the protrusion and expansion of characters in my document, is correct. Is the command order okay? If I wanted to use another font, are there other things to write? Thank you in advance Tommaso The code: \mainlanguage[it] \definefontfeature [default] [default] [expansion=quality,protrusion=quality] \usetypescript[modern-base] \setupalign[hz,hanging] \setupbodyfont[modern] \starttext ... \stoptext

Get section's uservarialbe inside the section
by Sylvain Hubert 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Dear List, I have sections tagged with authors: \startsection[title={Title}][author={Author}] ... \stopsection The authors were to be included in the table of contents using \structurelistuservariable{author}. Now I would also like to mention the authors inside the sections, but \startsection[title={Title}][author={Author}] \structurelistuservariable{author} \stopsection doesn't work. Could anyone help me with this? Thanks! Best, Sylvain

Scheherazade New loading issue
by Alan Bowen 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Though Scheherazade New font loads properly with the today’s LMTX, I cannot get it to load with LMTX from 2020.09.20 (which I must stay with for now because the latest one has its own complaints about my files). \definefallbackfamily[mainface][][Scheherazade New] [range=arabic] \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][STIX Two Text] \setupbodyfont [mainface, 24pt] \starttext Arabic—ؼ {\bf ؼ} \stoptext with ConTeXt ver: 2020.09.20 23:02 mkiv lua stats > loaded fonts: 2 files: stix2text-bold.otf, stix2text-regular.otf with ConTeXt ver: 2020.11.07 mkiv lua stats > loaded fonts: 4 files: stix2text-bold.otf, stix2text-regular.otf, scheherazadenew-bold.ttf, scheherazadenew-regular.ttf I should add that the old Sheherazade font works well with v. 2020.09.20.

new upload
by Hans Hagen 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Hi, Again a new lmtx upload. As these days are all about counting and numbers ... of the 19K visible macros some 14K are now flagged. Question: do we really need all these 'named characters' or can we at some point ditch many .. I assume that users who key in greek and cyrillic use unicode nowdays (no hurry, just wondering).
