Hi, currently trying the latest(?) beta from 08.03.2009. No problems with colors so far... But a simple font size switch like '\vi' has no effect here. \starttext Regular size and {\vi six point}? \stoptext Also the 'lazy' \z@ has vanished (too many sideeffects?). RIP.

indeed. \z@ and \p@ are gone as are \@ne and \m@ne also, the \v \vi \vii and sich are gone as they were artefacts form the previous century feel free to make a compaibility module ... \let\p@\onepoint and such plain tabs are still there but isolated in a core module also some low level math stuff goes away like m@th as it does not help readability Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

We will definitely need this, at least for getting tikz to work with ConTeXt. Aditya

ok, but separated from the code; it's no problem to load it by default, but context internally will not use them Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

definitely. It should be part of the distribution, so that someone writing a module that works with both ConTeXt and LaTeX does not need to know both systems inside out. And a similar package for LaTeX, having most programming features present in ConTeXt, will be nice :) Aditya

to some extend, writing a latex compatibilty layer for context should be doable ... a bunch of commands (begin/end ..) and some lua expresions ... but we let others define the reasonable subset Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

this is probably all we need: \unprotect \let \p@ \onepoint \let \z@ \zeropoint \let \@ne \plusone \let \m@ne \minusone \protect \endinput ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
