I've learnt a lot from the example, it's only that in the way it's written now it's not compatible with windows. I've made a gnuplot.bat. It can be called with gnuplot somescript epstopdf somescript where somescript is something like set terminal postscript eps # should be added automatically set output "someuniquename" # should be added automatically plot sin(x) # between \startGnuplot ... \stopGnuplot My question is: how can I put this into the same buffer (file) without using OS-specific commands? (piping didn't work) The rewritten version of the module works if I add the first two lines manually between \startGnuplot ... \stopGnuplot, but that should be done automatically by the module itself. I looked into metafun code, but it's still too complicated for me to understand it and use it for gnuplot. Gnuplot would also need some kind of \startGnuplotinclusions for stuff like set nokey set xlabel "time" plus the lines for setting the terminal which would automatically be added. (I don't like the postscript terminal itself, but that module s a good start.) Mojca ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
Re: [NTG-context] e-trema
Hi Willi,
On the lowest level, \discretionary{-}{e}{ë} does this, so
po\discretionary{-}{e}{ë}zie
is hyphenated correctly.
I doubt that there is a way to automate this (without changing
your input), though.
Cheers,

You need to expand the \Set commands in that first loop,
otherwise you store the literal token \recursevelel inside
the definitions of the Key and Val macros (\setvalue{}{}
autoexpands its first argument, but not its second argument).
When not inside a recursion, \recurselevel expands to the number
0 (zero) in the "manual bit", and you are actually re-evaluating
the macro using the then current \recurselevel definition
when inside the "looping" bit.
So you need:
\dostepwiserecurse{1}{9}{1}{
\expanded{\Set{\recurselevel}{K\recurselevel}{V\recurselevel}}
}
I hope this is clear enough?

What is "this", i.e. where's your problem?
How to format the title page? -- You could use a table.
Do you need the "jobs" multilingual? -- use \translate[fr=Président,
de=Präsident, en=President]
How to define a macro? -- \def\President#1{\def\doPresident{#1}} (and
use \doPresident in the table)
The letter style uses a similar approach; I'm just trying to enhance
it, see the "serial definition" thread.
I don't think the "\Something = {Anything}" style is possible at all.
You could use keyval style like \MyTitle[president={M. Prénom NOM},
somebodyelse={}], see http://wiki.contextgarden.net/
Commands_with_KeyVal_arguments
I don't know how that could work with lists of persons.

My guess is these are defined as token registers in LaTeX, so you

Well, ... yes. That also, of course. Those could be use to set engine to postscript/eps/metapost/png/... or even LaTeX.

I use LaTeX as the terminal otherwise (but your module can be modoified to use LaTeX terminal and convert into PDF as well). If I will find some time and additional motivation (sorry, less motivation for other things), I would like to modify the "metapost.trm". It's only 1000 lines (postscript is a bit longer), but very well structured code and much better understandable than TeX which is still cryptography for me. (Even in that case I would still need a lot of help from the ConTeXt side.) > But there is a white border around the plot. It > would be nice to have a clipping-option in \externalfigure. I would prefer to leave the border in this case as the default behaviour (for example if you have two graphs with different labels, you want the graphs to have the same size, not cropped because of slightly different name for the y axis), but I vote for that feature too.

[NTG-context] page references (varioref)
Hello,
I tried to implement something like the LaTeX varioref package, but without
success.
In detail: I would like to create a command like \at[], say \VarioAt[],
that outputs a text in function of the page-number, for example:
* if page is the same as the current page: "on the current page"
* if page is next page: "on the following page"
* if page is previous page: "on the preceding page"
* else "on page XX" (XX is page-number)
I tried with something like
\doifelse{\expanded{\at[myRef]}}{\expanded{\currentpage}}%
{same page}{different pages}
But it seems, that this does not work... :(
Could you help please?
Greetings, Peter

there is \atpage[ref] (as well as \somewhere{pre}{post}[ref]) with the
associated label texts "hencefore" and "hereafter"
rather old code but it should still work

Hello Hans,
really nice example, that's the way I love to learn ConTeXt!
I don't have Windows, so I had to modify your code a bit:
> {\def\par{\rawcharacter{13}}%
changed to {\def\par{\rawcharacter{10}}%
because 13 is CR (\r), but gnuplot needs LF (\n) here (Linux)
But I don't understand, why the \par must be redefined, is it because
\obeylines transforms newlines to paragraphs?
> {\executesystemcommand{start d:/gnuplot/bin/pgnuplot #1.job}%
just {\executesystemcommand{gnuplot #1.job}%
here
It works well, but it's two time the cos-function, that gets included.
I think, one needs a counter as in my module, to get distinguished file
names for \externalfigure.
Greetings, Peter

It is stored now as part of my "standard macro pack" for Context.
Thanks to all.

[NTG-context] float/figure and wrapping text
I am typesetting books, primarily text and images. My original background is Quark/InDesign, but quite recently, I decided to look into TeX/LaTeX (LaTeX because that is just what most of the TeX references refer to). I first spent some time trying to learn LaTeX and although I was able to accomplish a number of my desired goals, I began to run into some problems related to maintaining text on a baseline grid. When searching for solutions, I came across a reference to ConTeXt. My first impressions are that ConTeXt looks great, and would handle most of what I would like to accomplish with a nice uniform approach. I haven't explored many of the features I will need to use, but am trying to read the manuals and listserv archives and basically trying things out to see how things function. So, I am sure I will have a number of questions that will later turn out to seem obvious (often the case, I guess for the uninitiated). Eventually, I might even be able to answer a couple of questions But, to begin, one thing I would like to do for a project I am working on is to wrap continuous text around an image (placed on one side of the main text body), and I am encountering a little difficulty. The basic situation in my document is that the figure can float, to be inserted at the next available spot, placed at the left or right margin, with text above (if there is space), to the side, and below (if there is space). First, it appears that TeX, LaTeX and ConTeXt can only place a figure next to text at the beginning of a paragraph. Is this correct? Second, using ConText, when I use \placefigure, if there is enough space on a page, it appears to place it, and wrap text around the side. Everything looks fine. But, if there is not enough space remaining on the page, the remainder of the page is left blank, and then the figure is placed at the beginning of the next page, with text wrapped around it. (That is both what I observed, and also I read in the "Details" document as the expected behavior). If I use \placefloat, if there is not enough space remaining on the page, the text will continue printing on the page and the float will be placed on the next page, BUT without any text to the side of it. What I would like is to be able to combine these two behaviors when placing a floating figure: If there is enough space on the page, it would place the figure there and wrap text around it (as it currently does for \placefigure). If there is not enough space, it will 'float' the figure and continue with the text on the current page (as it does with \placefloat, but not with \placefigure) and insert the figure on a subsequent page when there is space, wrapping the text around the figure at that point (again as it does with \placefigure, but does not seem to do with \placefloat). Is it possible to do this using a current set of ConTeXt control sequences and maybe I am just missing something? If not, is this something that can be implemented? (I don't have any experience with lower level TeX macro programming). All of what I am looking for is already there, but not all in one control sequence.

Have you seen this document? http://pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/details.pdf Look in the section "Fine Tuning Graphics" and see if there is anything there that will help.

David Arnold wrote: Have you seen this document? http://pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/details.pdf Look in the section "Fine Tuning Graphics" and see if there is anything there that will help. Yes, I had looked through that document, which is where I found the statement (on p. 25): When the figure does not fit on the page, a page break is issued. This, as I mentioned, is a result of \placefigure I would like to get around (and, in fact, \placefloat DOES seem to get around, but with the drawback of not having text wrapped to the side). While I don't understand all the "details" of that manual, (which I am sure will be very helpful for me in fine tuning the placement of a graphic relative to the surrounding text, if I can overcome my current placement difficulty), the remaining "details" do not appear to address the matter. I feel like I am missing something pretty basic, here, but just can't seem to come up with the right combination. Any other thoughts?

Thanks a lot!
Not as rich as varioref, but exactly what I need!
