Re: [NTG-context] \showmathcharacters doesn't work (MacTex 2009)

16 May 2010

      Hi Otared,

Actually I'm using MKII (ConTeXt + XeTeX). MacTex 2009 (based on Tex
Live 2009) does not produce correct result. I installed ConTeXt
minimals and it worked (again, with XeTeX, so MKII I assume?).

Hi Riobard,
Since math is done differently in mkiv than in mkii, indeed
\showmathcharacters does not work in mkiv.
However one can get all the math characters in mkiv in a big list doing the
following:
%%%% begin showmath.tex
\doifmode{mkiv}{\usemodule[fnt-25]}
\starttext
\doifmodeelse{mkiv}{\showmathfontcharacters}{\showmathcharacters}
\stoptext
%%%% end showmath.tex
Then, if using mkiv, in the resulting PDF file you can see all characters
used in mathmode.
Best regards: OK

Hi,
I want to produce a list of math characters for reference. Followed the wiki
page it's supposed to be a simple call to \showcharacters. But the following
tex file
\starttext
\showmathcharacters
\stoptext
produces an empty table. \showcharacters doesn't work either. Any idea why?
