Walter Schmidt has made the font DayRoman from Apostrophic Labs available to TeX. Currently the support package doesn't contain any ConTeXt support, i.e. typescripts.
I've made for me a typescript for these fonts and now Walter is interested in including ConTeXt support in his package.
His package is distributed as zip-file that can be directly unpacked in a texmf-tree. Thus, where should the typescript-file be located? In my private texmf-tree i use TEXMF/tex/context/user/typescripts/ and the file names start with "cts-" (i.e. cts-dayroman.tex).
Is there some standard how to name typescripts and locate them in a texmf-tree, so that distribution of typescripts is possible in a controled way?
locating is done with kpsewhich
BTW, i would prefer that \usetypescriptfile[dayroman]
first tries to load dayroman.cts and if it is not available it tries dayroman.tex. Then we can use the extension "cts" for ConTeXt TypeScripts in the future.
how about: /tex/context/third/typescripts cts-*.tex is ok for me, a tex suffix is to be prefered because of (1) syntax highlighting editors and (2) kpse file searching (also, cts-* is already denoting the kind of file) if we can have some kind of QA on packages (say: confirmed that things work) have no ptoblem with having a third party zip, although ctan is the most natural place for it (but i can mirror that) Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
