Thank you for all your answers. I will have a look at the texmf/doc/context/presentation file which is not bundled with my 2015 OpenBSD package (at least find did not return it) and keep on learning. Have a nice day, Damien Thiriet

Problem with usemodule[graph]
by Antoine Cailliau 02 Mar '17

02 Mar '17

Hi, I'd like to use graph to draw my plots with metapost. However, the following minimal file does not work: \usemodule[graph] > \starttext > \startMPcode > draw begingraph(3in,2in); > gdraw "agepop91.d"; > endgraph; > \stopMPcode > \stoptext The complete output log is available here: http://pastebin.com/zuGaT87W Thank you for your help ! I can generate the proper picture by writing only metapost code such as : input graph > beginfig(0); > draw begingraph(3in,2in); > gdraw "agepop91.d"; > endgraph; > endfig; > end;

ConTeXt minimals on linux armhf
by Lutz Haseloff 02 Mar '17

02 Mar '17

Hi all, since yesterday, the installation of the minimals on linux armhf doesn't work anymore. On a fresh system, after "sh ./first-setup.sh" I get: receiving incremental file list bin/ bin/luatex bin/mtx-update.lua bin/mtxrun bin/texlua -> luatex sent 92 bytes received 8,631,278 bytes 1,150,849.33 bytes/sec total size is 8,628,902 speedup is 1.00 ./bin/mtxrun:2763: attempt to index global 'fio' (a nil value) When you want to use context, you need to initialize the tree by typing: . /usr/local/context/tex/setuptex in your shell or add "/usr/local/context/tex/texmf-linux-armhf/bin" to PATH variable if you want to set it permanently. This can usually be done in .bashrc, .bash_profile (or whatever file is used to initialize your shell). I suspect, the new mtxrun binary doesn't match the rather old luatex (1.0.0) Greetings Lutz P.S. I could provide luatex and luajittext binaries for armhf (experimental or trunk)

two framed item lists side by side
by Csikos Bela 01 Mar '17

01 Mar '17

Dear context user: I would like to put two itemized lists side by side (1cm between them), top aligned. I inserted each lists in framedtext and tried to use combinations but the distance between the two frames is too big, and the list are not top aligned. What would be a correct solution? I don't need the frame to be drawn. Why distance=1cm and width=12cm have no effect in my code? Thanks, bcsikos code: \setupitemize[each][packed,joinedup,n][stopper=.~,itemalign=flushright] \setupframedtext[width=5.5cm,frame=off,offset=0pt] \setupcombinations[width=12cm,distance=1cm] \starttext \startcombination[2] {\startframedtext \startitemize \item In The Flesh? 3:19 \item The Thin Ice 2:29 \item Another Brick In The Wall (Part 1) 3:09 \item The Happiest Days Of Our Lives 1:50 \stopitemize \stopframedtext }{}{ \startframedtext \startitemize \item Hey You 4:41 \item Is There Anybody Out There? 2:40 \stopitemize \stopframedtext }{} \stopcombination \stoptext

xtables different frame thickness for one side only
by Csikos Bela 01 Mar '17

01 Mar '17

Dear context users: Is it possible to change the rulethickness of one side of a row in xtables? I the example below I'd like the bottom of the first row to be thicker than other sides. \starttext \startxtable[frame=on] \startxrow % bottom frame of this row should be thicker \startxcell AAA \stopxcell \startxcell BBB \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell CCC \stopxcell \startxcell DDD \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stoptext If I understand correctly xtables uses framed mechanism. For framed I could not find an option to change the frame thickness of individual sides. There's only rulethickness option which applies to all sides. According to this what I want to do in xtabels is not feasible. Please correct if I misunderstand something. Thanks you in advance, bcsikos

Context install from Texlive2016 mtxrun problem
by Geert Dobbels 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

Hello, After several years away from Context, I would like to start using it again and encounter the following problem: I am on a Fedora 25 system, 64bit machine and installed context from the rpm repositories via dnf. The repositories contain a Texlive 2016 version. I installed "texlive" and "texlive-context" from those repositories, and context works out of the box. The problem is with mtxrun: it seems unable to find the scripts. The scripts are installed in /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua When I invoke "mtxrun --script" from any place, I get a "no script name given" without the expected list of available scripts wheni I invoke the same from the scripts directory, I get the list of available scripts as expected. When I invoke "mtxrun --script fonts --list --all" from any directory, I get "unknown script 'font.lua' or mtx-font.lua' the same comand from the directory where the scripts are located gives "mtx-fonts.lua:135: attempt to index global 'fonts' (a nil value)" Is this supposed to work out of the box, or do I still have to manually configure some details as in older texlive versions ? (could not find anything in the context wiki or maillist that helps me to solve this problem) Geert
