[NTG-context] Re: textext() doesn't work on my MikTeX distr.

2004-10-13 Thread Patrick Gundlach
Hello Mojca Miklavec,

 The following example works on [EMAIL PROTECTED], but on my computer
 it only writes unknown at the place of x. btex etex also doesn't
 work in ConTeXt (metaplay) on my computer, although it does without
 any problems in metapost/mptopdf.

do you have 

\protectbufferstrue

in cont-sys.tex?

2004-10-13 Thread Patrick Gundlach
Hello Mojca,

   do you have
  
   \protectbufferstrue
  
   in cont-sys.tex?

 I renamed the file once for some reason (I don't remember why, but
 I've probably read something about removing the file; my apologises if
 I accused MikTeX for that).

 Now I renamed the file back, (\protectbufferstrue was already there),
 executed texexec --make -all, but now I get an empty PDF file instead
 of at least a circle. And even if I delete this line, it makes no
 change.

Hmm, strange. Please post the complete log to the list(!). And perhaps
you can post the relevant lines of cont-sys.tex. Do you have
shell-escape (=write18) enabled in MikTeX? I don't know where to look
(I don't use MikTeX).

[NTG-context] problems with indented columnized itemization

2004-10-13 Thread Stefan Wachter
Hi all,
I try to generate the following output:
Some Label  * item 1  * item 2   * item 3
* item 4  * item 4   * item 5
i.e. I want to have a label followed by an itemization that is set in 
columns.

I tried several things but did not succeede
1. Variant - a tabulate environment
\starttabulate[|l|p|]
\NC
\inframed[width=\LabelWidth,align=left]{Teilnehmer}\hskip\SepWidth
\NC
\startitemize[columns,three]
\item Bauherr
\item Architekt
\item Bauleiter
\stopitemize
\NC\NR
\stoptabulate
There the following problems: a) the itemization introduces an 
additional empty line and b) the [columns,three] parameter is not 
considered.

2. Variant - using a narrower
\startnarrower[left]
\startitemize[columns,three]
\item Bauherr
\item Architekt
\item Bauleiter
\stopitemize
\stopnarrower
The problem with this variant is that the coluns do not respect the 
right margin, i.e. the items reach beyond the paper.

Has anyone a solution for this problem?
Thanks for your attention,
--Stefan

Hi Hans,
I tried to isolate pdftex problem described below and the result is surprising :-) The 
code (I have it in single file prot.tex):
\expandafter\newtoks\csname Something\endcsname
\startfonthandling[private]
  \defineprotrudefactor ! 0 .2
\stopfonthandling
some time ago i ran into toks problems like that, and after some heavy 
debugging with taco, we found out that there was an etex bug; this is 
fixed now (registers  255 were not properly allocated by etex)

you run into that problem because the 'updated protruding/hz support' 
allocates registers and due to the amount of toks used these end up in 
the 255 range; here i ran into some problems with a new par attachment 
mechanism

a temp solution is to make the following number in syst-etc smaller (say 
24)

  \chardef\@@insallocation=32
after that you need to recompile the format

I was using \title to create my chapter titles without the chapter number.

the chapter appears. Can anybody help me?
