Hi, I can confirm that the x64_64-linux from https://dl.contextgarden.net/build/luametatex/work/ version works correctly. So, no excess spaces around the decimal points at all. HTH Günter Hans Hagen via ntg-context @ 2023-03-26 13:22 +02:

Hi List, I’m getting strange spaces around some decimal points after a clean LMTX install. MWE: \starttext \startformula v = \frac{1.32}{1.41} = 0.935 \stopformula \stoptext This produces the result attached below. The 1.32 looks fine, but the next two numbers have excess space around the decimal point. Adding the line \showmakeup[mathglue] %\mathspacingmode=1 to the preamble reveals that the second and third decimal points are being treated as binary operators. It’s very strang. Are others getting this? can you pick up a binary from:

https://dl.contextgarden.net/build/luametatex/work/

and test it?

Hi all,

Regrettably, I see the same problem and Gavin.

I am using TeXlive 2023 on Slackware64 15.0, for what that is worth.

Hi Hans, Jim, Bruce, et.al.

Han’s asked me

...

can you pick up a binary from:

https://dl.contextgarden.net/build/luametatex/work/

and test it?

Maybe. I picked up the binary, but testing it is not quite as easy as it might be due to the MacOS security settings. I’ll see what I can do, but I know very little about Unix/Darwin.

Since this appears to be an issue across multiple platforms, I’d welcome anyone else checking the new binary. (Thanks, Günter!)

The x86_64-darwinlegacy from that download link version has fixed the problem on the Mac. Thank-you all involved. \starttext \startformula v = \frac{1.32}{1.41} = 0.935 \stopformula \stoptext gives the attached. — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK

Hi all,

I d/l'ed that binary, replaced the TeXlive version (which is dated March 11, even though I just updated texlive 5 minutes ago) and, lo and behold, the PDF now looks like it should.

So from my point of view, that particular issue is resolved.

Sorry about your issues with Mac security. I have this feeling that Apple is slowly iterating towards a state where they sell you an expensive computer with a beautiful acrylic and polished stainless steel stand and ask you just to admire it, but don't touch it. :-) as they don't update the os after 7 year (so i could only test it on some ancient intel osx, maybe with less security in place) you end up with stacking them up to a decent steel pedestral

but, even then, one can always build the binary oneself (installing some dev tools + cmake worked out ok for me on that insecure 2013 machine) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
