Solaris 11 SPARC Support [SEC=OFFICIAL]
by Michael Wigston 05 Jan '24

05 Jan '24

Hi, Would you consider supporting Solaris 11 on SPARC? Alternatively if you could provide documentation how to build Context on "SunOS sun4v" hardware would also be beneficial. I have compiled luametatex, but getting below error when trying to create cache and not sure if this is a compatibility issue. bin/custom# ./mtxrun --generate startup error : no format file given, quitting Regards, Michael Wigston Senior Analyst/Programmer, Digital Applications People, Transformation & Technology Group Level 5, 100 Market Street, Sydney, 2000 Tel: +61 2 9911 2426 Michael.Wigston(a)asic.gov.au<mailto:Michael.Wigston@asic.gov.au> [cid:image001.png@01DA3FC5.8B11FCD0] Please consider the environment before printing this document.

Local alternative to \input
by Jeroen 04 Jan '24

04 Jan '24

I have a document that is getting a lot of mark-up instructions for creating tables and placing figures. I would like to move this out of the main text flow. The easiest way would be using \input, but i rather place all this at the bottom of the file and just refer to it with something like \localinput or so to a textblock at the bottom of the same file. What would be the easiest way to implement this?

Hi, As a side effect (spin off) of this years xmas card we have a new years gimmick: https://www.pragma-ade.nl/2023 Of course it screams metapost but tex and lua are also involved. See it as compensation for the lack of an end-of-year update. The last page of the result has a bit of explanation.

Equivalent for hdots and hdotsfor
by Shiv Shankar Dayal 30 Dec '23

30 Dec '23

In LaTeX, I can use \hdots for horizontal dots and \hdotsfor{n} to fill for several columns in a determinant. But these do not work in ConTeXt. What is the equivalent for these in ConTeXt? -- Respect, Shiv Shankar Dayal

Hyphenation for Indonesian language
by Muhammad Rizqi Siregar 29 Dec '23

29 Dec '23

Hello, I'd like to ask if ConTeXt LMTX has hyphenation for Indonesian language or a way to enable it. I think Babel package in LaTeX has some pattern files for the language, although I am not sure whether they can be borrowed to work with ConTeXt or not. Appreciate any help on this. Thanks. Best regards, Muhammad

Hi, To type my lessons or other, I use the Modern font in 12 pt or 11 pt. I find that the subscript notations are a little too big : how can I improve this ? Thanks Fabrice \m{ \forall n \in N, z_{n+1}=\frac{i}{3}z_n}

How to implement word corrections
by Jairo A. del Rio 27 Dec '23

27 Dec '23

Hi, list! I'm writing a small module to print word corrections, e.g., things like "irregardless" > "regardless"or "alverja" > "arveja" ('pea' in Spanish) with overstrikes and underlines, but I want feedback to make a module in the ConTeXt fashion. I hope the PDF attached explains better what I mean. Just in case, I want to know if anyone else in the mailing list is acquainted with grammar and orthography quizzes/exercises/exams in ConTeXt. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Best regards, Jairo
