Install urbanist fonts
by alan.caruanambom＠gmail.com 23 Jul '24

Hello, I was trying to install the urbanist fonts (https://github.com/coreyhu/Urbanist) but I couldn't get it to load and save the fonts in the system folder and in the ConTeXt folder without success, I could only get it to load when saving them in the current working directory but that is annoying, help me by telling me the correct way to install it... I leave you my code so you can review it and give me advice to improve it \starttypescript [sans] [urbanist] \definefontsynonym [Urbanist][file:urbanist-regular.otf*default][features=default] \definefontsynonym [UrbanistItalic][name:urbanist-italic.otf*default][features=default] \definefontsynonym [UrbanistBold][name:urbanist-bold.otf*default][features=default] \definefontsynonym [UrbanistBoldItalic][name:urbanist-bolditalic.otf*default][features=default] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [sans] [urbanist] \definefontsynonym [Sans][Urbanist][features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansItalic][UrbanistItalic][features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansBold][UrbanistBold][features=default] \definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic][UrbanistBoldItalic][features=default] \stoptypescript \definetypeface[urbanist][ss][sans][urbanist][default] \setupbodyfont[urbanist,30pt] \starttext \dorecurse{100}{\bf \input knuth \crlf} \stoptext

request for talk/article on writing modules
by Henning Hraban Ramm 22 Jul '24

22 Jul '24

Hi wizards, I’d really appreciate an introduction “how to write a ConTeXt module” at the meeting and in the next journal. * How does this namespace and setup stuff work? * When does it make sense to use variables, macros or parameters? * Should I use the namespace for internally used MP graphics, environments, buffers etc.? I guess I can figure out most of it on my own, but I think we should have some easily understandable documentation. Or do we already have something and I didn’t find it? I can contribute the part about distribution. Best, Hraban

How to create a second bibliography?
by Joel 22 Jul '24

22 Jul '24

My copy editor wants me to create a second bibliography for photo/illustration references. I'm using basic code to make a bibliography: \usemodule[publ-imp-sbl] \usebtxdataset[default][~/Commons/sources.bib] \setupbtx[dataset=default] \usebtxdefinitions[sbl] \setupbtx[sbl] \starttext \input knuth \cite[authoryear] \startchapter[title=Bibliography] \placelistofpublications \stopchapter\stoptext I know how to create custom lists and indexes, but not a bibliography list. How do I point the image references to go to a different list, but still its a bibliography? \startchapter[title=Image Credits] \placelistofcredits \stopchapter --Joel

spreadsheet module
by Henning Hraban Ramm 20 Jul '24

20 Jul '24

Hi, I checked the spreadsheet module for the first time (in my own invoices I do everything in Lua and don’t need it). In the attached example, I setup a decimal comma, as usual in German: \setupspreadsheet[rechnung][ period={,}, comma={\,}, split=yes] Unfortunately, this also replaces all dots in the text strings. Is there a workaround (beside using \getspr in a “real” table)? Apparently, \startrow or \startcell don’t understand the period setting. Hraban

Anyone working on a treesitter grammar?
by juh+ntg-context＠mailbox.org 20 Jul '24

20 Jul '24

Dear all, no mention here https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/ and searching for treesitter on the Wiki gives no match? Many texteditors have treesitter support builtin so having a ConTeXt grammar would be nice. TIA juh

list of used files
by Henning Hraban Ramm 20 Jul '24

20 Jul '24

Hi, is there some mechanism (directive?) that gives me a list of files that were involved in making a PDF? Preferably only those outside of the texmf trees, but I could filter that myself. (With "latexmk -recorder somelatexfile" I get the file list as a .fls file.) My goal is to commit all used images to my git repo, while I often have a big collection of images that I didn’t use in the end and don’t need in the repo. Hraban
