directlua question
by Hans van der Meer 04 Dec '18

04 Dec '18

I am trying to extract something from a string with a \directlua call, the last word of a string in case: \directlua{tex.print(string.match(“This is a string","%s%a$"))} However, the %s%a are not working with the TeX-error “unfinished string near eof”. Obviously caused by the %’s. How to get this working? \textpercent will not do, off course within Luacode. dr. Hans van der Meer

Font fallback

03 Dec '18

I can't get create a font fallback in the the example below, so some input is welcome. It works when using STIX2 only (the commented out part), but somehow the font name is not recognized in the fallback, not when using what is listed by 'mtxrun --script fonts --list --all'. — \definefontfamily[stix-two][mono][Stix Two Text] \definefontfamily[stix-two][math][Stix Two Math] %\setupbodyfont[stix-two,10pt] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [rm] [Stix Two Text] [range={02070,0208F}] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [serif] [Stix Two Text] [range={02070,0208F}] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [mono] [Stix Two Text] [range={02070,0208F}] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [math] [Stix Two Math] [range={02070,0208F}] \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [stix] \definefontfamily [mainface] [math] [stix] \definefontfamily [mainface] [mono] [stix] \setupbodyfont [mainface] \starttext \startformula \startalign \NC 𝑨₀ 0 ₁ 1 ₂ 2 ₃ 3 ₄ 4 ₅ 5 ₆ 6 ₇ 7 ₈ 8 ₉ 9 ₊ + ₋ - ₌ = ₍ ( ₎ )\NR \NC 𝑩⁰ 0 ¹ 1 ² 2 ³ 3 ⁴ 4 ⁵ 5 ⁶ 6 ⁷ 7 ⁸ 8 ⁹ 9 ⁺ + ⁻ - ⁼ = ⁽ ( ⁾ )\NR \stopalign \stopformula \starttyping 𝑨₀ 0 ₁ 1 ₂ 2 ₃ 3 ₄ 4 ₅ 5 ₆ 6 ₇ 7 ₈ 8 ₉ 9 ₊ + ₋ - ₌ = ₍ ( ₎ ) 𝑩⁰ 0 ¹ 1 ² 2 ³ 3 ⁴ 4 ⁵ 5 ⁶ 6 ⁷ 7 ⁸ 8 ⁹ 9 ⁺ + ⁻ - ⁼ = ⁽ ( ⁾ ) \stoptyping 𝑨₀ 0 ₁ 1 ₂ 2 ₃ 3 ₄ 4 ₅ 5 ₆ 6 ₇ 7 ₈ 8 ₉ 9 ₊ + ₋ - ₌ = ₍ ( ₎ ) 𝑩⁰ 0 ¹ 1 ² 2 ³ 3 ⁴ 4 ⁵ 5 ⁶ 6 ⁷ 7 ⁸ 8 ⁹ 9 ⁺ + ⁻ - ⁼ = ⁽ ( ⁾ ) \stoptext —

Interlinear translations in Context
by Huseyin Özoguz 03 Dec '18

03 Dec '18

Hello, I have now the challenge in a book to set an interlinear translation. That is two languages word-by-word (original above translation), so the sentence structure follows the originals language, like its common in many scientific bible translations. My problem: The TABLES are not suitable, because 1. I have to determine in advance, how many words are in the row, which depens obviously on the page-width and widths of the words. 2. Its not readable and well editable, because in Context (and most other languages) one has to write the table in rows and not in columns, as I need it for interlinear translations. Example: \bTABLE \bTR \bTD word 1, language 1\eTD \bTD word 2, language 1\eTD \bTD word 3, language 1\eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD word 1, language 2\eTD \bTD word 2, language 2\eTD \bTD word 3, language 2\eTD \eTR \eTABLE So I can not make this into and simple macro \interlinear{#1}{#2}, which I could use this way: \interlinear{word 1, language 1}{word 1, language 2} \interlinear{word 2, language 1}{word 2, language 2} \interlinear{word 3, language 1}{word 3, language 2} (all three blocks in the same horizontal line, if no linebreak is needed) On top of this, the language 1 (arabic) is right-to-left (so language 2 (german) must follow), it should be compatible with right-to-left reading someway. I tried with \framed, but failed, because the framed blocks are set one under the other, not side by side. How can I achieve a nice way with this simple readable macros? Thank you.

Thank you, so thats the way to go for us. (Sorry for my late reply.) > Where exactly should the image appear in the output? Originally it should on the left from the chapter-title. But meanwhile the design changed and it appears now in the center above the title, so the question dissolved (but still I dont know, how to make it safely). -- Huseyin Özoguz E-Mail: h.oezoguz(a)mmnetz.de

question about a ligature
by Pablo Rodriguez 02 Dec '18

Dear list, diving into the Lua code from MkIV, I found a way to add ligatures. But I have a problem with the following sample: \startluacode fonts.handlers.otf.addfeature { name = "linearb", type = "ligature", data = { 𐁃 = { "d", "w", "e" }, Y = { "d", "a" }, b = { "P", "Q" }, } } \stopluacode \definefontfeature[default][default][linearb=yes] \definefallbackfamily [mainface] [rm] [Noto Sans Linear B] [range={linearbideograms, linearbsyllabary}] \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [Noto Sans] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext \startTEXpage da dwe PQ 𐁃 \stopTEXpage \stoptext What am I missing to get the "dwe" ligature? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
