issue with hyphenation in linenotes
by Pablo Rodriguez 23 Jul '15

23 Jul '15

Dear list (especially Hans, Thomas or Luigi), some time ago I reported (http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2013/076021.html) a bug with not hyphenated code in linenotes. Now I have an updated sample that seems to fix it: \setuppapersize[A8] \starttext \startlinenumbering This text shows a \startlinenote[one]{bariant H} variant \stoplinenote[one]. This text shows a \startlinenote[two]{bariant H}\prewordbreak variant\stoplinenote[two]. This text shows a \startlinenote[three]{bariant H}\prewordbreak variant\stoplinenote[three]. \stoplinenumbering \stoptext It seems that locating \prewordbreak before the text to be hyphenated (and not after it) enables hyphenation in body. Is this a bug or is it actually the way \prewordbreak should work? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

can't run external lua library
by DesdeChaves 23 Jul '15

23 Jul '15

I'm trying to reuse a old library to generate poisson numbers. In old context versions the library works fine, but in the current beta (ConTeXt ver: 2015.07.16 13:30 MKIV beta fmt: 2015.7.23 int: english/english) the execution fails. This code works perfectly in lua 5.3 but not in luatex. why? \startluacode require "meurandist" ARRAY_SIZE=3 arr=meurandist.new_int(ARRAY_SIZE) meurandist.rpoisson(arr,ARRAY_SIZE,4) for i=0,ARRAY_SIZE-1 do print(meurandist.int_getitem(arr,i)) end \stopluacode Thanks a lot Jorge

issue with mailbox.org
by Pablo Rodriguez 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Dear list, I have tried to reply to the message from Jan Urlich three times and it was rejected those three times, because of the following error: "ntg-context(a)ntg.nl": SMTP error from remote server after RCPT command: host: mx-1.mf.surf.net 5.7.1 82.165.159.42: on real-time blacklist zen.spamhaus.org Sorry, but I cannot negotiate which servers or IP addresses my mail provider uses. I don’t know whether the rejection is exclusively related to mailbox.org or it will happen with all my replies to any message from the list. Is there any way to whitelist my address for the mailing list? Sorry for the problems, but I have already experienced this and I would like to fix it forever. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

fonts not found with newotf
by Pablo Rodriguez 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hans, as reported in a previous message, using beta from 2015.07.16 13:30, enabling the newotf module in the following sample makes the Mechanica fonts not being loaded in the final PDF document: \usemodule[newotf] \definefontfamily [txfont] [tt] [Mechanica] [tf=file:Mechanica.otf, it=features:slanted, sc=file:MechanicaSC.otf] \setupbodyfont[txfont] \starttext \tt Test {\it amfe} {\sc amfe} \stoptext The attached newotf-error.log contains the error message. Since both font files were generated with FontForge, I would like to know what they are missing to report upstream to the FontForge developers. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

SyncTeX (TeXworks) - \enabledirectives[system.synctex] (now with attachments)
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hello, two questions related to SyncTeX (and maybe on TeXworks): 1. The following code: ---- \enabledirectives[system.synctex] \starttext Hello! \startluacode % line 6 context("Something") \stopluacode \stoptext ---- doesn't produce SyncTeX file (SyncTeX.synctex.gz). When I compile the file with "context.exe --synctex" option, the file is produced. Does it mean that "\enabledirectives[system.synctex]" is deprecated? 2. In the code above, text "Hello!" is generated in "normal TeX scope" whilst "Something" is generated from within Lua. When I click "Jump to source" from TeXworks editor and previewer, jumping from "Something" works well and goes to the source "SyncTeX.mkiv" correctly. "Jumping to source" from "Something" yields "Cannot read file <directory-of-the-source-file>" error (see attached picture). I don't know whether this relates to ConTeXt or rather TeXworks; for the case it should relate to ConTeXt, would it be possible generate an anchor (e.g.) to the nearest encapsulating \startluacode (if present; or \ctxlua, \cldcontext and so), so that "Jump to source" over "Something" would jump to \startluacode on "line 6"?

[Tools] v1.1 of ConTeXt BBLM for BBEdit
by Paul Mazaitis 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

I've released a version of the ConTeXt BBLM that better manages files referenced by environment or project structure commands. The language module populates the BBEdit Includes Menu with files referenced by: \environment \project \product \component The language module begins looking for any file matches in the parent directory, and then searches recursively downward in the file system for any matching files. Available here: https://github.com/pmazaitis/ConTeXtBBLM/releases/tag/v1.1.0 Thanks! -Paul

Temporary spacing between letters
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 20 Jul '15

20 Jul '15

Hello, is it possible to affect the space between letters temporarily? The following code provides it, but I guess there is a better ConTeX way: ---- \starttext \startluacode t = function(str, filler) return str:gsub("(.)", "%1" .. (filler or "~"), #str - 1) end \stopluacode Doslov\par \cldcontext{t("Doslov", "\\,")}\par \cldcontext{t("Doslov", "\\;")}\par \cldcontext{t("Doslov")}\par \cldcontext{t("Doslov", "~~")}\par \cldcontext{t("Doslov", "\\quad ")}\par \cldcontext{t("Doslov", "\\qquad ")}\par \stoptext ---- Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

User-Defined Commands With Key-Value Options

On 7/20/2105 0:50 AM Hans Hagen wrote: > * So how would you like to use lua? Is the data stored in lua?*Yes, I imagine that the data (for instance, the value of the keys "number", "name", "abbreviation", "title", etc.) is stored somewhere when the compilation process reads, say, "\startbiblebook", and that they are available to define the the formatting done by "\startbiblebook". Thank you.

User-Defined Commands With Key-Value Options
by Joas Yannick 20 Jul '15

20 Jul '15

Dear everyone, I am currently typesetting the old (published in 1707) French Bible of David Martin using ConTeXt MkIV. The source code looks like this: \startproduct martin1707 \startproject bibles % Page layout, fonts, language, etc. \startbiblebook[number={1}, name={Genéſe}, abbreviation={Gen.}, title={Le premier livre de Moyſe dit la Genéſe}] \startbiblechapter[number={1}] \startbibleverse[number={1}] Au commencement Dieu créa les cieux & la terre. \stopbibleverse \stopbiblechapter \stopbiblebook \startbiblebook[number={45}, name={Romains}, abbreviation={Rom.}, title={Epiſtre de ſaint Paul apoſtre aux romains}] \startbiblechapter[number={12}] \startbibleverse[number={1}] Je vous exhorte donc, \bibleaddition{mes} fréres, par les compaſſions de Dieu, que vous préſentiez vos corps en ſacrifice vivant, ſaint, agréable à Dieu, \bibleaddition{qui eſt} vôtre raiſonnable ſervice. \stopbibleverse \startbibleverse[number={2}] Et ne vous conformez point à ce préſent ſiecle, mais ſoyez transformez par le renouvellement de vôtre entendement, afin que vous éprouviez quelle eſt la volonté de Dieu, bonne, & agréable, & parfaite. \stopbibleverse \stopbiblechapter \stopbiblebook \stopproduct As you may know, all the Bibles are divided into books, and each book into chapters, and each chapter into verses. The purpose of \startbiblebook, \startbiblechapter, and \startbibleverse is to control the formatting thereof respectively (as \startsection, \startsubsection, etc., control the formatting of sections, subsections, etc.) Now, as you see. these commands are user-defined commands with key-value options. My goal is to define the way they do the formatting with Lua. But I do not know how to do. I know a bit about programming, so learning Lua is not a problem. Thanking you in advance, All the best, Yours faithfully.
