Hi,

Hello,

...

I uploaded

Mmm, uploaded to where ?

The sources are here: svn://ctx.pragma-ade.nl/manuals http://context.aanhet.net/svn/manuals/examples/ The PDF versions of manuals are accesible from http://www.pragma-ade.com/overview.htm, not from download. http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/eppchtex.pdf http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/enattab.pdf (although I don't find the link to it)

I did visit http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-1.htm and clicked 6 (six) times on 'next'

I also did visit http://www.pragma-ade.com/document-1.htm where I clicked on 'all manuals' which did bring me to http://www.pragma-ade.com/show-man-1.htm. Seeing the "page 1 of 42" made me loose my appetite.

Writing this E-mail inspired me to manaully change the URL to http://www.pragma-ade.com/show-man-42.htm but still not the fresh uploaded manuals.

In other words:

Add a URL to a "I uploaded"

...

enattab eppchtex

What do the documents document?

They're both old manuals, I think that Hans only uploaded the sources. enattab is about natural tables (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tables_Overview) and eppchtex about PPCHTeX, chemistry module for drawing formulas.

Please provide a (short) description of the manuals.

Now that you've found the manuals, please contribute to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Official_ConTeXt_Documentation ;)

esp the nattab manual needs some updating (new features) so if you run into a missing aspect ...

I think that is another example of

* you mean what I mean * smart people will find their way, normal people can follow them * I have no time to communicate, your help is welcome *

Well, I would say vice versa: Hans invests enormous amount of time into implementing most evil user requests. If he "forgot" to mention the URL, that was surely not intentional. People following the mailing list did already heard about the svn repository with the sources of the manual, but I agree that it's impossible to follow the mailing list unless ConTeXt is your hobby.

This E-mail is written with the best intensions, but it can be read as offencesive. In that case: Shoot the messenger and return to bisness as usual
