Hallo,

I want to convert my thesis (which I wrote in plain tex) to ConTeXt. Unfortunately the process fails because my documents contain some commutative diagrams made in Xypic. Is it possible to convert xy code to something that ConTeXt can understand?

Thanks,

Dirard You can try this http://search.gmane.org/search.php?group=gmane.comp.tex.context&query=XYPic There are exemples there.

Hi all, I created a m-xypic.tex file with the code that Luigi suggested. Then I tried to run texec on my file t.tex, but texec hangs with a message }[d]_{f} \ar[dl]_{f_1} &&\\ X & X \times Y \ar[l]_{p_1} \ar[r]^{p_2} & Y } \stopformula \stoptext --- Dirard * On 01/05/07 at 09:09 luigi scarso wrote:

Also in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.context/5227/focus=5254 Save following line in m-xypic.tex

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %m-xypic.tex % \input xy

\xyoption{all}

\unprotect

\appendtoks \xywithoption{tips}{\let\tipsize <at> <at> \bodyfontpoint}% \to\everybodyfont

\protect \endinput %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

And in you tex file put before \starttext \usemodule[xypic]

There seems to be something wrong with the dotted arrows. I tried different codes. The following code compiles. --- \input xy \xyoption{all} \starttext \startformula \xymatrix{ & W \ar[dr]^{f_2} \ar@{.>}[d]_{f} \ar[dl]_{f_1} &&\\ X & X \times Y \ar[l]_{p_1} \ar[r]^{p_2} & Y } \stopformula \stoptext --- Dirard * On 01/05/07 at 22:10 luigi scarso wrote:

hmm, try this

btw, not sure it works; something strange near W in your xymatrix -- luigi ---------------------------------------------------------------- If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!

I save the following code in a file, say tt.tex. Then I just run texec tt.tex. It compiles. The problem is that the universal arrow is not displayed as it should; i.e. a dotted arrow. --- \input xy \xyoption{all} \starttext \startformula \xymatrix{ & W \ar[dr]^{f_2} \ar@{.>}[d]_{f} \ar[dl]_{f_1} &&\\ X & X \times Y \ar[l]_{p_1} \ar[r]^{p_2} & Y } \stopformula \stoptext --- Dirard * On 02/05/07 at 11:30 luigi scarso wrote:

How doy you compile it under LaTeX (or TeX) ? -- luigi ---------------------------------------------------------------- If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!

I don't use LaTeX either. This code comes from my thesis which I wrote in plain TeX. Save the following code in a file: -- \input xy \xyoption{all} \xyoption{dvips} $$ \xymatrix{ & W \ar[dr]^{f_2} \ar@{.>}[d]_{f} \ar[dl]_{f_1} &&\\ X & X \times Y \ar[l]_{p_1} \ar[r]^{p_2} & Y } $$ \bye -- Then run tex file.

hmm, some problem with \ar@. Maybe a collision with another macro of context.

Maybe there is a clean solution.

Also, have a look at http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/metapost/contrib/macros/metaobj It seems that it has the same power of XY-pic . -- luigi ---------------------------------------------------------------- If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net
