$\cal ABC$ does make all three letters calligraphic in ConTeXt, at least in my system.

{ \cg some text } should do it. /S

Could the problem have something to do with the version of the system? I use pdfTeX Version 3.14159-14h-released-20010417 (Web2C 7.3.3.1) on SuSE Linux 7.2 with ConTeXt ver: 2002.10.23. By the way, this version of ConTeXt has a problem with \angle in math mode: the Acrobat Reader will complain of missing font when I use \angle. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Giuseppe Bilotta" To: Sent: Friday, May 09, 2003 9:54 PM Subject: Re[2]: [NTG-context] Using \cal, \frak, \goth in math mode

Not in mine.

\starttext $\cal ABC$ \stoptext

gives normal (math, italic) type ...

I'm not going to suggest a change in the core, since the current approach seems to be the one preferred by Hans. Rather, I'll implement the relative changes in a separate module specifically designed for AMS-LaTeX compatibility.

changing it now would result in reverting to previous behavior, and then request for other behavior .. so we keep circling We can make this configurable wong with more things (stable thingies can move to the newmath module (m-newmat) [my stepwise growing math module with configurable math; gb's not too latex specific goodies may go in there when approved -)] [features like calligraphic are rather font dependent and currently can be configured by remapping fonts and families; tricky things]

Hans: there's a bug in your current implementation: in font-ini.tex there's a line reading:

\def\calligraphic#1{\mathortext\mathtext\donothing{\cal #1}}

ok done, also in mult-con?

i'll be there (in the committee actually so i have to come)

now torn between presenting the math stuff (rather incomplete) or presenting e-Omega 1.15--2.1, now that it seems to pass the trip test. What would you suggest?

eomega would be fun esp if it could run a decent large job without problems maybe there's room for two talks: math + a small e-omega one (i'll ask) 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
