Yes, except that there is no beamer package available in ConTeXt , but theoretically "anything can be done".
Sure ;)
In addition to the core functionality: http://modules.contextgarden.net/taspresent http://modules.contextgarden.net/t-rsteps
Thanks.
2.56$ for the first buggy đ found in ConTeXt :-)
He, he...let's try...
(We'll drop that letter from our keyboards soon :)
Oh, then I'll stay with friendly lyx/latex...
That was before anyone started complaining about its non-functionality :).
When I was exploring ConTeXt I was told about that from someone else. Strange, it was going on...
Now, unless fonts are problematic, it should work flawlessly. (not with texfont, since it uses ec.enc which is broken, but texfont is now a history anyway)
Let it stay 'history'.
Which general utf-8 problems? There might be some issues every now and then (in pdfTeX each character has to be defined separately and in LuaTeX there might be some new unpolished/non-debugged features), but they're usually resolved once someone complains. Exotic scripts don't work in pdfTeX of course.
See ml's archives in '02. utf-8 support was quite young then and I thought XML has some value :-)
You can always write incompatible code (by using XeTeX primitives),
Not soon :-)
but in general you should be able to process XeTeX (ConTeXt) documents with LuaTeX without any problem (the only warning sign is that font definitions might still change a bit, but that only means changing a few top lines in your style file). i
Ohh, that's cool...the work is under the hood...
The reverse is not neccessary true since you cannot use Lua in XeTeX.
Sure.
3) can one run luaTeX on x86_64 (I use Arch Linux & texlive) ?
Sure.
That's nice. Both laptop & desktop are 64-bit here.
AUCTeX is LaTeX oriented I guess, but I don't knom the details.
It says it supports ConTeXt and it does ;)
It always depends on source, so creating a general converter is impossible. I would run "search and replace" a few times (depending on source), but that cannot solve everything.
OK. This is not the rush. What about my last point: docs ? Sincerely, Gour
