[NTG-context] ConTeXt version stuck at 2020.01.30

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

Has something changed regarding the installation/update procedure?
ConTeXt seems to be stuck at 2020.01.30 and downloading the newest
version results in that very version.

Steps to reproduce:

  rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh .
  sh ./first-setup.sh
  . tex/setuptex
  context --version
  → current version: 2020.01.30 14:13

According to

  https://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/context/

the directory “latest” seems to contain the latest version, rather
than the “beta”. first-setup.sh however uses the “beta” directory.

Has something changed and first-setup.sh hasn't been updated to
reflect that change? Or is something else going on? Adapting
first-setup.sh to mirror from the “latest” directory seems to fetch
the latest version:

  rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh .
  sed -s '/\/bin\/mtxrun/s/--context=beta/--context=latest/' first-setup.sh
  sh ./first-setup.sh
  . tex/setuptex
  context --version
  → current version: 2020.04.30 11:10

I vaguely remember someone mentioning it on the list at some
point, but failed to find it.

Thanks for the pointer. I'm back on track now.

I had the same issue. You have to add --context=latest:

\setupbuffer has before and after keys which can be used. Example:

\setupbuffer
 [before=\blank\blackrule\startnarrower\BufferStyle,
  after=\stopnarrower\blackrule\blank]

%% alternatively define custom buffers
\definebuffer
 [foobar]

\setupblackrules
  [width=1cm,
   height=1pt,

\definehighlight
  [BufferStyle]
  [style=smallitalic,

\startbuffer
  \samplefile{knuth}
\stopbuffer

\starttext
  \samplefile{knuth}
  \getbuffer
  \samplefile{knuth}

[NTG-context] LMTX: natural table error namespace 'naturaltablelocal', key ', '

Hi!

With LMTX the following example results in

The file runs without error in MkIV. Has something changed or is it
a bug?

[NTG-context] LMTX: different output if dots are used in the file name

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

LMTX and MkIV behave differently if dots are used in the file
name. Example:

  printf '%s\n' '\starttext\null\stoptext' > foo.10.tex && context foo.10.tex

MkIV: → foo.10.pdf
LMTX: → foo.pdf

Is this intentional?

That's unfortunate.

1) The editor workflow with simple suffix replacement .tex → .pdf to
   open the corresponding PDF file doesn't work any more with lmtx.
   New logic is needed to find the correct pdf file name.

2) A project (of mine) that uses item numbers as file names
   (containing dots) compile to the same pdf:

   MkIV (everything's predictable and fine):
   10.10.10.tex → 10.10.10.pdf
   10.10.11.tex → 10.10.11.pdf
   11.10.11.tex → 11.10.11.pdf

   LMTX:
   10.10.10.tex → 10.10 (not even a PDF suffix)
   10.10.11.tex → 10.10 (file 10.10 is over-written)
   11.10.11.tex → 11.10 (no suffix)

MkIV is way more predictable and consistent in that regard.

OK, thanks. No hurry. The production projects run on some oldish
2019 MkIVs anyway. I'm trying to get my feet wet with lmtx and run
it on some projects to check how usable and compatible it is.

The exit code from mtxrun works here:

printf '%s\n' '\bye' > good.tex && mtxrun --autogenerate --script context 
good.tex; echo $?
0

printf '%s\n' '\by' > bad.tex && mtxrun --autogenerate --script context

As far as I understand there is no built-in method. You have to

[NTG-context] Subfigures, referencing and resetting counter

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

I struggle with referencing subfigures. Combinations can't be
referenced to my knowledge, that's why I went with another float for
the inner subfigure. Example:


\useMPlibrary[dum]

\definefloat
  [subfigure]
  [subfigures]
  [figure]

\setupcaptions
  [subfigure]
  [numberconversion=characters,
   numberstopper=)]

\setuplabeltext
  [subfigure=]

\definecounter
  [subfigure]
  [way=bytext]

\starttext

\startplacefigure [title=First, reference=first]
  \startfloatcombination [nx=2, ny=1]
\startplacesubfigure
  \externalfigure
\stopplacesubfigure
\startplacesubfigure [reference=fig:firstsub]
  \externalfigure
\stopplacesubfigure
  \stopfloatcombination
\stopplacefigure

\startplacefigure [title=Second, reference=second]
  \startfloatcombination [nx=2, ny=1]
\startplacesubfigure
  \externalfigure
\stopplacesubfigure
\startplacesubfigure [title=beta, reference=fig:secondsub]
  \externalfigure
\stopplacesubfigure
  \stopfloatcombination
\stopplacefigure

See \in{figure}[first],
\in{figure}[fig:firstsub] and
\in{figure}[fig:secondsub].

\stoptext


How to reset the counter for the subfigure to start anew for each
new figure?

The second issue is the referencing of subfigures. The MWE shows
“figure b)” and “figure d)” rather than “figure 1b)” and “figure
2b)”. How to include the outer float counter in the reference?

[NTG-context] Section head placement wrong when the after key is used

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

In the following example the 2nd section head stays on page one when
the “after” key is used. If the blackrule is commented out the
section head moves to page two as intended.

What's the reason the section head stays on the previous page when
the “after” is used and how to fix this?

\setuphead
  [section]
  [after=\blackrule]  %% works as desired when commenting this one out

\starttext
  \startsection [title=Foo]
\samplefile{knuth}
  \stopsection

  \startsection [title=Bar]
\framed[height=15cm]{}
\samplefile{knuth}
  \stopsection

In my actual document I already use \blank[halfline]. Changing this
to \blank[halfline, samepage] fixes it.

You could adjust the clubpenalty and widowpenalty:

\startsetups [mypenalties]
  %% \setdefaultpenalties
  \setpenalties\widowpenalties {2}{100}
  \setpenalties\clubpenalties  {2}{100}
\stopsetups

\setuplayout [setups=mypenalties]

The idea is that people can just copy-paste the code into an editor
and keep tweaking. It doesn't have to produce the correct output,
but it should compile. If you add an MWE you're more likely to get a
response.

Here's what an MWE with the code I posted looks like:

\setuphead
  [part]
  [placehead=yes,
   bodypartlabel=part]

\setuplabeltext
  [part=Section\nobreakspace]

\setuplabeltext
  [chapter=Chapter\nobreakspace]

\setuphead
  [chapter]

\setuphead
  [chapter]
  [sectionsegments=chapter]

\setuphead
  [section]
  [sectionsegments=chapter:section]

\starttext
  \startpart [title=Mypart]
\startchapter [title=Some Chapter]
  \startsection [title=Some Section]
\samplefile{knuth}
  \stopsection
\stopchapter
  \stoppart
\stoptext

And the string “Section 1 Mypart” shows up there.

First, there a bunch of (U+00A0) NO-BREAK SPACEs in your code. I
don't know if that's added by your mail client or if that's actually
in your code. If it's also in the code: Context doesn't like it. The
NO-BREAK SPACEs have to go.

Second, you have a space (new line) after “bodypartlabel=part”. Add
a comma, percent sign or move the closing bracket after the word
“part”.

AFAIK it's not mentioned in the manuals. But a variant is on the
wiki “Independent Section Numbering”:

  https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles

  \definestructureresetset
[default][1,1,0][1] %% reset part, chapter, but not section

  \setuphead
[sectionresetset=default]

\definestructureresetset is the same as \defineresetset. I assume
that \definestructureresetset is the preferred way. But both will
work.

I've checked again with 2021.07.06 18:49 LMTX

  10.10.10.tex → 10.10.pdf + 10.log

A gentle reminder.

As by my tests, something has changed in the last months, but the
behaviour is still weird (e.g. log files differ from pdf file or
10.10.10.tex results in 10.10.pdf).

Is there a chance you can look at that at some point?

Disclaimer: I don't use Windows, I know nothing about Windows. But I
downloaded a Windows 10 VM and fired it up, installed LMTX, created
a file (in the default editor):

  # file name: 10.10.10.tex
  \starttext
  foo
  \stoptext

Then I ran

install.bat
setpath.bat

# LMTX
context 10.10.10.tex

# MkIV
context --luatex 10.10.10.tex
  → 10.10.10.pdf
  → 10.10.10.log

So I can't confirm your findings. MkIV works exactly the same on a
vanilla Windows 10 VM than it does on a Unix system and produces
correct output files with multiple dots. No issues there.

My short test above seems to suggest that it's not an OS issue since
Unix and Windows behave exactly the same. MkIV (which seems to work
fine on Windows) as well as the LMTX issue. But maybe I did
something wrong there, in that case please let me know.

And Hans said “I'll look at it” a while back, so I just wanted to
send a reminder.

Since it worked in MkIV it looks like a regression. I mean it used
to work. Several of my projects rely on source files with multiple
dots. I know it's not common to have multiple dots, but I hope
there's chance it might be fixed.

But maybe Hans can chime in and clarify.

It's not that I use files without (.tex, .mkiv, ...) suffixes, but
your 10.11.12.13 example is processed by MkIV without problems:

10.11.12.pdf
10.11.12.tua
10.11.12.log

LMTX, however doesn't like it:

10.11.pdf
10.11.tua

Just to make it clear: I don't use files without .tex/.mkvi/etc.
suffix. So I don't expect 10.11.12.13 to work, but 10.11.12.tex
should in fact work as far as I understand.

[NTG-context] Ampersand in \unprotect fails in LMTX

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

the following example compiles with MkIV but fails in LMTX:

\unprotect
  \setupinteraction
[\c!author={Foo & Bar}] %% {Foo \& Bar} works for MkIV and LMTX
\protect

\starttext\null\stoptext

LMTX:

  1 \unprotect
  2   \setupinteraction
  3 [\c!author={Foo & Bar}]
  4 >>  \protect
  5
  6 \starttext\null\stoptext
  7
  I can't figure out why you would want to use a tab mark here. If some right 
brace
  up above has ended a previous alignment prematurely, you're probably due for 
more
  error messages.
  mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 256

As \& works for MkIV as well as LMTX, there's an easy workaround.
But maybe this isn't intended behaviour and needs checking.

That's just an MWE to demonstrate the problem. The actual code is

[NTG-context] Using Farad with \unit messes up feet, µ not recognised as prefix

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

I struggle using the unit Farad (unit of capacitance):

\starttext

%% prints 10 10 ft
\unit{10 F}
\unit{20 ft}

\registerunit  [F=Farad]
\setupunittext [Farad=F]

%% prints 10 F 20 F⋅t
\unit{10 F}
\unit{20 ft}

\stoptext

When registering Farad as new unit it messes up feet. This looks
like a bug to me, since “20 ft” does not contain a capital “F” and
units are case-sensitive. How to use Farad correctly without messing
up other units?

2nd issue: The prefix “µ” is not recognised:

\starttext
%% prints 10 nm 20 30 µm
\unit{10 nm}
\unit{20 µm}
\unit{30 um}
\stoptext

I would expect “20 µm” to produce the correct result. Can we make
“µm” also produce the same result as “um”?

You're right \unit{10 Farad} works.

Makes sense if you think about it. Never crossed my mind that ft not
meaning feet in this instance and also never contemplated the
existence of a “femto tonne”.

That gives some insight, indeed. Thanks.

What about:

\unit{10 um}
\unit{10 µm}

Can I assign µ to mean micro (prefix)?

Found it:

\starttext
  \unit{10 micro meter} \crlf
  \unit{10 µm}

Should this be the default (µ assigned to micro)?

[NTG-context] textbackground spacing offset

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

I'm having problems getting the textbackground spacing offset to work.
Example:

\setupframedtext
  [offset=overlay,
   width=max,
   depthcorrection=off]

\setuptextbackground
  [location=paragraph,
   %% offset=overlay,   %% does nothing
   %% backgroundoffset=overlay, %% does nothing
   %% depthcorrection=off,  %% does nothing
   %% topoffset=3mm,%% works, but only for positive values
   background=,
   frame=on]

\starttext
  \startframedtext
\framed{Foo}
  \stopframedtext
  \starttextbackground
\framed{Foo}
  \stoptextbackground
\stoptext

How do it get the same spacing as in the framedtext case? The
textbackground has a small gap between the inner and outer frame at
the top and a larger gab at the bottom. I'm not concerned with
horizontal spacing here.

[NTG-context] Vertically aligned alternating fillers

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

A while back Wolfgang presented a nice solution for alternating
fillers:

  https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg67677.html

It works if the text has a constant width. But if the width changes,
the alternating look is lost. Is there a way to align the dots
vertically even if the text has variable width? Example:

\usemodule
  [visual]

\definefiller
  [pavel-0]
  [alterntive=symbol,
   method=global,
   width=2em,
   leftmargin=.5em,
   rightmargin=.5em,
   symbol=\clap{.}]

\definefiller
  [pavel-1]
  [pavel-0]
  [align=left]

\definefiller
  [pavel-2]
  [pavel-0]
  [align=middle]

\newconditional\PavelState
\global\setfalse\PavelState

\define\PavelFiller
  {\ifconditional\PavelState
 \global\setfalse\PavelState
 \filler[pavel-1]%%
   \else
 \global\settrue\PavelState
 \filler[pavel-2]%%
   \fi}

\def\oneword
  {\getrandomnumber\n{1}{100}\fakenwords{1}{\n}}

\starttext
  %% dots are vertically aligned
  \dorecurse{6}{%%
Foo \PavelFiller Bar\par}

  %% dots are not aligned

Works as expected here. The margins have changed and \showlayout
gives you:

  \leftmarginwidth  =  6cm
  \rightmarginwidth = 10cm

Change the example to:

  \setuplayout
[leftmargin=6mm,  %% mm, not cm
 rightmargin=10mm]

That way you better see the effect on the page.

[NTG-context] Invalid certificate for distribution.contextgarden.net

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

The site

  https://distribution.contextgarden.net/

uses an invalid certificate:

  echo | openssl s_client -servername 'distribution.contextgarden.net' -connect 
'distribution.contextgarden.net':443 2>/dev/null |  openssl x509 -noout -ext 
subjectAltName

  X509v3 Subject Alternative Name:
  DNS:4tex.ntg.nl, DNS:mailman.ntg.nl, DNS:mysql-admin.ntg.nl, DNS:ntg.nl, 
DNS:www.ntg.nl

This makes connections fail. distribution.contextgarden.net has to
be added to the Alternative Name list.

I used that server to check for the latest context version. What's
the recommended way to check for the latest version? Basically the
output of the \contextversion command?

That lists the *local* version, not the most current available

This is how I check for the remote version:

  curl --silent --connect-timeout 5 \

'https://distribution.contextgarden.net/current/context/latest/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv'
 | sed -ne '/\\edef\\contextversion/s/.*{\(.*\)}/\1/p'

Not pretty, but has been working for a decade or so (except the
minimals → standalone change a while ago).

[NTG-context] Bold TeX Gyre Pagella Math results in Math error: parameter 'subshiftdown' with id 48 in style 2 is not set

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

I have a strange issue when TeX Gyre Pagella Math is used together
with bold text. MWE:

\definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [TeX Gyre Pagella]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [ss] [TeX Gyre Heros]

%% comment/remove this line and it works
\definefontfamily [mainface] [mm] [TeX Gyre Pagella Math]

\setupbodyfont [mainface]
\definedescription [foo]

\starttext
  %% works, no issues here
  \math{x_y}

  %% fails if TeX Gyre Pagella Math is used
  \bold{\math{x_y}}
\stoptext

The error is:

tex error   > tex error on line 14 in file /tmp/tex-xDj/xDj.mkvi: Math 
error: parameter 'subshiftdown' with id 48 in style 2 is not set

 \math_m_nop 
#1->\relax \ifmmode #1\else \normalstartimath \begingroup #1\endgroup 
\normalstopimath 
\fi 
 
  \bold{\math{x_y}

What is the issue here?

That example was taken straight from

  https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/definefontfamily

So that should better read like this: ?

  \definefontfamily [mainface] [rm][TeX Gyre Pagella]
  \definefontfamily [mainface] [ss][TeX Gyre Heros]
  \definetypeface   [mainface] [mm] [math] [pagella]

  \setupbodyfont[mainface]

Should I correct the wiki then?

That works, thanks. However, I discovered that:

%% fails
\definefontfamily [mainface] [mm] [TeX Gyre Pagella Math]

%% works
\definefontfamily [mainface] [mm] [pagella]

So even with \definefontfamily it works, when “TeX Gyre Pagella
Math” is changed to “pagella”. That I do not understand.

\definetypeface generates the same error message if the font size is
changed:

\definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [TeX Gyre Pagella]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [ss] [TeX Gyre Heros]

\definetypeface [mainface] [mm] [math] [pagella]

True, thanks for pointing that out. I wasn't aware and frankly,
that's rather unexpected behaviour.

So to put it all together, this now works for me:

\definefontfamily [mainface] [rm] [TeX Gyre Pagella]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [ss] [TeX Gyre Heros]

\starttypescript [math] [default] [size]
  \definebodyfont [8.5pt] [mm] [default]

\definetypeface [mainface] [mm] [math] [pagella]

\setupbodyfont [mainface, 8.5pt]

\starttext

[NTG-context] \unit{mercury} renders as m (meter) and \unit{millimetermercury} doesn't work as expected

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

I'm struggling with the rendering of a particular liquid metal:

  %% renders as m (meter), not as Hg
  \unit{mercury}

  %% renders as mm·m, not as mmHg
  \unit{millimetermercury}

This is strange, since both “mercury” and “millimetermercury” are
defined in phys-dim.lua. To get mercury recognised as a unit this
can be used:

  \registerunitshortcut [mercury=mercury]

Now \unit{mercury} renders correctly as Hg.

Why is that \registerunitshortcut necessary? Is it even correct to
use it like this? However, even then millimetermercury doesn't
render correctly:

  %% renders as mm·Hg, not as mmHg
  \unit{millimetermercury}

How to get millimetermercury render as mmHg? And “inch mercury”
render as inHg? I can't find “inchmercury” in phys-dim.lua, only
“millimetermercury”, should it be added?

Example:

%% \enabletrackers [physics.units]

%% inch should render as “in”
%% \setupunittext [inch=in]

\starttext
  \unit{mercury}\crlf  %% renders: mm · m

  \unit{12 millimetermercury}\crlf  %% renders: mm · m
  \unit{12 inchmercury}\crlf%% renders: in · m

  %% why is this necessary to get mercury rendered as Hg?
  \registerunitshortcut [mercury=mercury]

  \unit{12 millimetermercury}\crlf  %% renders: mm · Hg
  \unit{12 inch mercury}\crlf   %% renders: in · Hg
\stoptext

Questions:

1) Why is \unit{mercury} not working, although it's listed in
   phys-dim.lua?
2) Is the call \registerunitshortcut [mercury=mercury]
   necessary/correct?
3) How to make \unit{millimetermercury} render as mmHg and
   \unit{inch mercury} render as inHg?

Ok, that makes sense. And it works, thanks for the explanation and

That doesn't make sense, inch and mm are different units. I'd rather
add:

  \registerunit
[inHg=inchmercury]

  \setupunittext

[inchmercury=inHg]

That's how I'd approach it. Not sure if it meets all your

“Best” is subjective. What might be a good way for me might not be
your preferred way.

LuaMetaTex doesn't care at all *how* you input the characters into
your text editor. The characters end up in the tex file and that's
what's processed by context.

  \starttext

Methods:

  - custom keyboard layout (my preferred way)

You need to select a font containing the characters you need. Or set
up a fallback for a certain range:

So now we have:

\setupmetadata

Are any of those deprecated or the preferred way? I'm starting to

[NTG-context] trying to delete an attribute reference of a non attribute node

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

The following example throws the error:

  ! error:  (nodes): trying to delete an attribute reference of a non attribute 
node
  mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1

\setbreakpoints [compound]
\useMPlibrary [dum]

\starttext
  \startTABLE
\NC \externalfigure [foo-bar] [width=\textwidth] \NC
foo bar foo bar foobarfoobar \bold{} \NC\NR
  \stopTABLE
\stoptext

Sorry for the not so minimal example. In the actual text I'm not
using the `dum` library, I'm including actual graphics. So I don't
believe that's the issue. It might have something to do with word
breaking, that's my gut feeling.

What is the issue here?

Here it renders fine and double clicking opens the page in the

Create an MWE, a *minimal* working example. Without paper size,

You're much more likely to get a meaningful response.

Same here. You seem to have misconfigured your editor or email

less likely to to receive a response.

Either I don't see it or I didn't understand the problem in the

Because the font you use doesn't contain the letter “ἄ”. Switch

[NTG-context] The requested font has no files for the 'tf' alternative

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

I run into a problem using some fonts. Latin Modern is used instead
and ConTeXt displays:

  selectfont > The requested font 'Caecilia LT Std Roman' has no files for the 
'tf' alternative, Latin Modern is used instead.

Example:

\definefontfamily
  [mainface]
  [rm]
  [Caecilia LT Std Roman]
  %% doesn't work, either
  %% [tf=file:CaeciliaLTStd-Roman.otf]

\setupbodyfont [mainface]

\starttext
  %% \definedfont [name:CaeciliaLTStd-Roman] %% this works
  \input knuth
\stoptext

The font is in the database:

  mtxrun -script fonts -list -all caecilia

This happens with other fonts too, not only Caecilia. Some fonts
work, others don't. Couldn't find anything on the list, so I might
be doing something wrong here. What's the issue here?

Your example works for me. But it's still unclear what I'm doing
wrong. According to your explanation this should work:

  \definefontfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[Caecilia LT Std]
[tf=Caecilia LT Std Roman]

However, it shows:

  selectfont > The requested font 'Caecilia LT Std' has no files for the 'tf' 
alternative, Latin Modern is used instead.

It appears that ConTeXt somehow can't find the font.

Thanks to Wolfgang's assistance I figured that the syntax in my OP
was correct and the issue is with my installation. It works for me
in a virgin installation, but throws the abovementioned error in my
current installation.

I don't know what borked my installation and why it only affected
some fonts and not others.

So sorry for the noise and thanks for quick responses.

I don't know if those commands would have helped. Since it doesn't
store any personal information I purged my context installation and
did a reinstall. Now all fonts work.

[NTG-context] Calculating with \measure

Is it possible to calculate with \measure or do I have to resort to
dimens? Example:

\definemeasure [mymeasure] [4cm]

  \framed[width=4cm]{Foobar}
  \framed[width=\measure{mymeasure}]{Foobar}
  \framed[width=2\mydim]{Foobar}

That's exactly what I initially did. After I ended up with

  \measure{Small}
  \measure{TwoSmall}
  \measure{ThreeSmall}
  \measure{FourSmall}
  \measure{Big}
  \measure{TwoBig}
  \measure{ThreeBig}
  \measure{FourBig}

I deleted the whole mess and went with \dimen.

Thanks for the quick response.

[NTG-context] Documentation for the letter module

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

Where can the current documentation for the letter module be found?
I seems like it's not included in the distribution (why is it
missing?) and

  http://bitbucket.org/wolfs/correspondence/downloads/correspondence.pdf

is (out)dated: 2010-08-27

Furthermore, the latest updates on
http://bitbucket.org/wolfs/correspondence/ are from 2012-02-02 and
the module seems to have been updated¹ since (2015-08-24).

The gnuplot module is broken at the moment. I posted a workaround
some time ago. Before loading the module:

  \unprotected
  \def\@@GNUPLOT@term@context@linejoin{rounded}
  \def\@@GNUPLOT@term@context@is@dashed{true}
  \def\@@GNUPLOT@term@context@linewidth{1}
  \def\@@GNUPLOT@term@context@fontscale{1}
  \def\@@GNUPLOT@term@context@points{metapost}
  \protected

This, however invalidates any later setup. I am working on fixing
the module.

Just a small correction in mtxrun.{xml,man,html}:

--timedrun  run a script an time its run

This should be rephrased, although I don't have suggestions since I
have no clue what this option is for.

[NTG-context] Framed: Individual background offsets

[Marco Patzer]

Hi,

how can I set individual offsets for the background, similar to
loffset, roffset, etc.?

\defineframedtext
  [foo]
  [frame=off,
   offset=none,
   backgroundoffset=1cm,
   %% backgroundloffset=1cm, %% there is no backgroundloffset
   background=screen]

\starttext

%% backgroundoffset is applied on all four sides
\startfoo
  \input ward
\stopfoo

\input knuth

%% this is what I'm aiming for
\startnarrower [-1cm]
  \startfoo [backgroundoffset=0cm, loffset=1cm]
\input ward
  \stopfoo
\stopnarrower

How about making this configurable? It would be intuitive and
consistent. Suggestion:

Perhaps both locations could be supported for some time.
\setuppagenumbering is indeed an awkward place to set up the layout.

[NTG-context] List of bugs and quirks

Hi Hans,

I think it's better to start a new thread for this issue.

I maintain a small list of bugs and quirks which I would like to
share. I don't know if the issues are considered bugs or not. I
posted most of them to the mailing list at some point, but AFAIK
they have not been fixed for whatever reason. Usually there are
simple workarounds or I have some code which fixes the issue. Others
are still unresolved. Act upon as you see fit.

Actually I used a patched version for months in several projects
without issues. I replaced the kern with an hskip. That said, it's
unlikely that *I* will run into issues. And I'm curious about an
example where this fails and yields unacceptable results (like the
unpatched version does).

Thanks Hans for taking the time to look into that.

Indeed, LuajitTeX works, but you broke MkII. The format generation
already fails:

…
(/tmp/mkiitest/tex/texmf/metapost/base/string.mp 
(/tmp/mkiitest/tex/texmf-context/metapost/context/base/mp-func.mpii) ) )
(end occurred when else on line 5 was incomplete)

Maybe I quoted the wrong part of the log, but it seems like the MkII
format is not generated:

  This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.4-1.40.13 (TeX Live 2012)
   \write18 enabled.

  kpathsea: Running mktexfmt cont-en.fmt

  I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'!

I might get you wrong here, but I think this is a markdown/pandoc
issue. Look at the ConTeXt code generated for section references:

  %%% section.markdown 
  Whatever
  

  See [section](#whatever)
  %

  %%% section.tex %
  \section[whatever]{Whatever}

  See \in{section}{}[whatever]
  %

Now compare this with the code generated for tables on the other
hand:

  %%% table.markdown %%
Right Left Center Default
  --- -- --   ---
   12 121212
  123 123   123  123
1 1  1 1

  Table: Caption

  See [table](#caption)
  %

  %%% table.tex %%%
  \placetable[here]{Caption}
  \starttable[|r|l|c|l|]
  \HL
  \NC Right
  \NC Left
  \NC Center
  \NC Default
  \NC\AR
  \HL
  \NC 12
  \NC 12
  \NC 12

  \NC 123
  \NC\AR
  \NC 1
  \NC 1
  \NC 1
  \NC 1
  \NC\AR
  \HL
  \stoptable

  See \in{table}{}[caption]
  %

As you can see, no reference is created. I don't even know if
references are supported in markdown in the same way section
references are. If this is actually supposed to work, then I assume
a bug in the pandoc context output filter.
