texshow-web (was: colors without \definecolor)
Dear list and Patrick,
from texshow-web page ( http://texshow.contextgarden.net/ ) I read
"texshow-web is a web application for all user-commands that can be
used in ConTeXt."
However, I see that \colored is not inthere. This is also true for
some other commands appearing at this list occasionally (usually dug
from source by Wolfgang). Is this because
1) the texshow is not updated?
2) these commands are "not meant" for users?
3) any other reason?
I think the texshow-web is a very useful source of information. An
updated version would be really wonderful!

Hi all,
I understand that in order to use a color with \color[somecolor]{colored text} I first have to \definecolor[somecolor][r=.4,g=0,b=1]. Currently I'm trying to do automated colorizing with the help of some lua code and I'd like to make up rgb vectors on the spot without having to \definecolor them first, e.g. something like \color[r=.4,g=0,b=1] {colored text}. Is there a way to achieve this in mkiv? (Right now I'm assigning new rgb values to the same color "name" whenever the function is called that concatenates the next \color[]{} statement. This seems a bit verbose and hacky to me.)
\colored[r=...,g=...,b=...]{...} or {\colored[r=...,g=...,b=...]...} Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________

Thanks for you answer, Hans.
Do they appear automatically in texshow or does someone have to update
by hand? How long does it typically take? Is there something one can
do?

if something is missing one can create the xml blob that has to go into the cont-en.xml file and send it to the list (for verification) and when ok it will be added to the main cont-en.xml 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Mikael,

I will transfer the old texshow-web into the wiki, so the new commands can be added there easily. Jelle Huisman has suggested this and I think it is the best way for all of us to keep the commands up to date. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net
