two question on ConTeXt terminology
by Pablo Rodriguez 04 Feb '14

04 Feb '14

Dear list, I’m writing a document on ConTeXt and I have two questions on terminology. As I have been using LaTeX over a decade, I don’t know whether my descriptions are accurate in ConTeXt. Don’t worry, My questions are extremely basic ;-). What is the name for the part of the document that comes before \starttext? The ConTeXt manual seems to use preamble, but I would like to confirm this use. The other question is more tricky. Or at least I don’t find an obvious answer. Which is the correct expression to name any \start...-\stop....structure? Environment would be the LaTeX term, but this is reserved in ConTeXt. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Dear list, I would like to use \tex{visiblespace} which is actually character. c. \starttext \tex{\u2420} \stoptext Above is the way I tried to implement, but it doesn’t make sense. How could I do it? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

issue with font in typing environment
by Pablo Rodriguez 02 Feb '14

02 Feb '14

Dear list, I converted the monospace fonts of txfonts (http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/txfonts/pfb) from pbf to otf using FontForge. They work fine (http://www.ousia.tk/ryfonts.zip) But the issue is shown in the following sample (beta from 2014.02.01 14:22): \definefontfamily[mainface][mono][ryt1xtt][bf=ryt1xbtt] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \definetyping[TeXcode][option=TEX] \starttext \starttyping \ConTeXt\ is \stoptyping \startTeXcode \ConTeXt\ is \stopTeXcode \stoptext If option=TEX is enabled, there is no space after the backslash. I have checked the font and it seems to work fine, so it might be a bug. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Re: [NTG-context] Testpage with extras

> use case needed Here two cases to compare: 1. \setupindenting[yes, 9pt, first] \starttext \noindentation\input knuth\\ \input knuth\blank \noindentation \input knuth \testpage[35]\noindentation\input knuth \stoptext 2. \setupindenting[yes, 9pt, first] \starttext \noindentation\input knuth\\ \input knuth\blank \noindentation \input knuth \testpage[10]\noindentation\input knuth \stoptext In the second case the testpage is not active, but the "noindentation" (the one right after it) still is (correct bahavior of course). But I want to link this "testpage" and this "noindentation" with each other, s.t. both are active, if the line-criterion is true, and both are not acting, if not. That is, what I meant with "\testpage[n,noindentation]". Could I make it clear now? Huseyin

Rearrange Table of Contents section page numbers
by Thangalin 01 Feb '14

01 Feb '14

Hi, I am trying to recreate the following ToC entries: http://i.stack.imgur.com/ig6LX.png The code on the wiki uses: \doifelse\currentlistentrylocation{\structureheadlocation{chapter}} {{\bfb\currentlistentrytitle}} { \currentlistentrytitle}\NC\NR However, there are syntax errors and the conditional expression assumes that the ToC is being placed on every page. This assumption allows it to resolve the namedstructureheadlocation value. For a ToC at the start of a document, there is no "current chapter" and so the head location for the chapter entry returns 0. Here is what I have so far: \startsetups [list:TOC] \starttabulate \currentlistentrypagenumber{} \hskip 1em \NC \currentlistentrytitle{} \NR \stoptabulate \stopsetups \definelistalternative [TOC] [renderingsetup=list:TOC] % Format the ToC style. \setupcombinedlist[content][ alternative=TOC, ] \starttext \completecontent \startchapter [title=alpha] \stopchapter \startsection[title=alphasec] \stopsection \startchapter [title=beta] \stopchapter \startsection[title=alphasec] \stopsection \startchapter [title=gamma] \stopchapter \startsection[title=alphasec] \stopsection \stoptext How do you determine whether or not the chapter title should be displayed? Thank you!

Problem solved. The rest are just variations on the code above. If there is a room for other optimizations, please let me know. Thanks, Jan

Fundraising for MathML in Gecko/WebKit and EPUB (less than one day left)
by Mojca Miklavec 30 Jan '14

Khaled, thanks a lot for sharing this, but I believe it deserves a more descriptive title than just "fw: Thank you". Can you please also send this to other TeX mailing lists? In particular the Unicode Math (but XeTeX and TeX Live should be fine as well). It's not off-topic at all, I believe many people would be glad to see this work being done.

ToC like entry list
by Jan Tosovsky 30 Jan '14

30 Jan '14

Dear All, I am trying to typeset a quite complex list of accounting entries. http://drifted.in/other/045.jpg It is like Table of Contents, but without page numbers. I have no idea what commands to use for this. There is no need to have it exactly the same, just roughly. Thanks, Jan
