The mapping variant discussed in the magazine can be seen as a future xml based layer around the context tex core; a kind xml based typesetting engine so that one can do without tex programming and stick to xml tools (which some prefer)

But my unerstanding is that the mapping technique does not take care of white space. So if I have: <p>Some paragrah in XmL with space </p> This could get converted as: Some paragrah in XmL with space \par Which would produce 3 paragrahs. There is actually a nice small tool TeXML (at sourceforge) that takes care of this problem. It allows you to use an XML to issue TeX commands, and then converts those commands into TeX (or LaTeX or ConText). It takes care of white space. I am one of those people who likes to stick to XML tools, who likes to convert a tree to a tree. I was wondering the best way to do this. It seems that using TeXML is the best way. I just wanted to make sure there was not a more direct way in ConTeXt. Thanks Paul -- ************************ *Paul Tremblay * *phthenry@iglou.com * ************************
