Once, I've read about someone who, a long time ago, found it really difficult to look for pages related to LaTeX on the internet. He used to get a lot of "fetish" related pages!!! Since "context" is a very common word, I'd like to know from ConTeXt users... How do you look for "ConTeXt" stuff using search engines? Cheers, André Caldas.

I use "ConTeXt tex NTG" instead of "context" in Google and that works relatively well. Due to the scattered nature of the documentation I also find it useful save any PDFs about ConTeXt etc. that I stumble upon in a dedicated folder. Then you can use desktop search to search inside them.

On http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ there is a search box with three words below: Go, Search, Google. The last one will call google search on several predefined tex-specific pages. (The list of domains included in the search could be optimized. I just remembered that SX is probably not there since it didn't exist when the search was defined. If anyone is willing to help define the useful pages, help will be most welcome.) Mojca

Not working for me ... it just displays 'loading'. Mojca wrote:

I use this Google search: <search terms> site:contextgarden.net OR site:tex.stackexchange.com OR site:ntg.nl OR site:pragma-ade.com OR contextgarden Shall we compile/expand this list of good sites in mail, and then fix the context wiki's search? `contextgarden` already catches Gmane and all the other mailing list archive mirrors, because that string is in the list's signature. My current search has the following search URL (%s is the search terms): http://www.google.com/search?q=%s+(site:contextgarden.net+OR+site:tex.stackexchange.com+OR+site:ntg.nl+OR+site:pragma-ade.com+OR+contextgarden)&ie=utf-8&sa=Search&complete=0&nfpr=1 The flags &complete=0&nfpr=1 force Google not to autocorrect what you typed. (Very annoying when 'startcolumns' is interpreted as 'start columns'. Cheers, Sietse
