Hi, I uploaded a beta release. The biggest change is that image inclusion in mkiv has changed. Currently it's still some mix of tex and lua code, and the backend code is somewhat messy (and not complete yet) but it's a first step towards lua doing things. This will only work with a e recent luatex. The advantage is that file searching in lua is more robust (and when many search paths are used, also faster). Image conversion has been moved to lua too, but currently still uses pdftops (also for svg) but that may move to lua as well. Figure libraries are supported by default now.

I testes just a few short examples and noticed the following things: 1. XeTeX has two problems with the greep pattern files (lang-agr.pat). (c:/w32tex/share/texmf-local/tex/context/patterns/lang-agr.pat ! Nonletter. l.1486 ß╝Ç2╬¢1¤ë╬┤¤àß┐¢ ? ! Nonletter. l.2327 ß╝É3¤â2╬┐¤àß┐¢ ? 2. Subpagenumbering did no work with MKIV but you forgot to add "\let\immediatesavetwopassdata\savetwopassdata" to core-two.mkii Greetings, Wolfgang

I guess, you said that last time, too. Can you give me any hints at what I should look on my side? If I delete that pat file, everything runs through; if it comes back with the next update, it stops again. Is my pdfTeX too old (Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6) on OSX 10.4)?

Thank you Mojca, it seems to make sense all of a sudden: I think those two accents are simply a mistake, and we should replace the sequence by the appropriate Unicode character. That's what Alexej Kryukov has done in his antomega package (see lines 1271 and 1816 of TeX Live's texmf-dist/tex/lambda/antomega/ograhyph4.tex). Thomas?

That was my guess too, and I simply remapped those two patterns. They are simple typos:

...

l. 1739 >e3s2ou': should have been >e3s2o'u l. 1194 >a2n1wdu': should have been >a2n1wd'u

With the nifty remap feature, we can just substitute the correct value. Thanks for investigating! Thomas

Hi Hans, there appears to be a bug in the new image inclusion: my images are only found when I give the extension explicitly. So this does work: \externalfigure[aegean.png] while this doesn't: \externalfigure[aegean] (Glad I don't have to write about Greek patterns for a change...) Thomas

The Greek patterns look better now, but you should probably add ἀ2ν1ωδύ and ἐ3σ2ού (where the last character is U+03CD GREEK SMALL LETTER UPSILON WITH TONOS and not U+1F7B GREEK SMALL LETTER UPSILON WITH OXIA). This makes a duplicate entry for these patterns, but all the other patterns with oxia are duplicated as well. Arthur

Hi Hans, there is also another bug in combination with floats. \starttext \placefigure {A black rule} {\blackrule} \stoptext The extra number after the float is insert by "\dofloatinfomessage" in page-flt.tex and this did happen because you added the \setmessagetext in the last beta and the command has only two parameters, not three as use below. \def\dofloatinfomessage#1#2#3% {\bgroup \showmessage\m!floatblocks{#2}{#3}% \setmessagetext\m!floatblocks{#2}{#3}% \@EA\floatinfo\@EA#1\@EA{\currentmessagetext}% \egroup} Wolfgang

The advantage is that file searching in lua is more robust (and when many search paths are used, also faster). Image conversion has been moved to lua too, but currently still uses pdftops (also for svg) but that may move to lua as well. Figure libraries are supported by default now.

Hi Hans, I tried my example for nested section environments with mkiv xml setup and noticed it is broken again :-( Wolfgang

this is good news. :) the bad news is, that figure libraries are currently broken in mkiv (beta from 29.2). i'll make a minimal example. peter

The advantage is that file searching in lua is more robust (and when many search paths are used, also faster). Image conversion has been moved to lua too, but currently still uses pdftops (also for svg) but that may move to lua as well. Figure libraries are supported by default now.

this is good news. :)

the bad news is, that figure libraries are currently broken in mkiv (beta from 29.2). i'll make a minimal example.

ok; btw, don't load fig library modules!, it's supposed to work by default; loaded libraries probably spoil the game ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
