Overfull boxes using m-cweb
Hello, I am running into overfull boxes when including a weaved cweb file into a context document. The original reference to the cwebmac.tex file (the plain TeX macro) is commented out and replaced by \usemodule[cweb]. The cweb macros appear to expand something into \*11ptmmmt* which seems to have something to do with it. Is there anyone here with experience and deep (Con)TeX(t) knowledge who understands what is happening? Regards, Edwin ----------------------------------part of my log file------------------------------------------------ Overfull \hbox (6.4885pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 3--13 \*11ptmmmr* for the ap-pli-ca-tion de-vel-op-ment mod-ule. This is a small ap-p li-ca-tion which loads file \hbox(7.63889+2.13889)x398.33858 .\*11ptmmmr* f .\*11ptmmmr* o .\*11ptmmmr* r .\glue(\spaceskip) 3.66628 .\*11ptmmmr* t .etc. Overfull \hbox (8.38132pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 3--13 \*11ptmmmr* with point and line da-ta and dis-plays it in a win-dow.

Hi,

I don't really understand your question. You have overfull boxes in your TeX run. That is a "normal" TeX feature. They can usually be avoided. But in your case I guess that it is something which you cannot avoid. But how should we know? I guess that the cweb module is not that commonly used. So you might be better of and supply a minimal (!) but complete (!) example. Patrick -- You are your own rainbow!

it may be a result of many unbreakable (key)words, so in that case try: \setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch] Hans

It seems to be caused by the fact that \hbox is used frequently in m-cweb.tex. \hbox-es are unbreakable aren't they? Anyway your solution results in plenty of underfull boxes (as can be expected) and a much better looking result. Many thanks, Edwin
