Hi,

In order to be able to generate new zips i'd like the modules in the 
wiki to be tds compliant as soon as possible.

This is pretty smart, I'd say. Of course it would be better to have an
official font with encircled numbers for reasons of efficiency, but this
looks pretty good and the code is quite clean so i believe you did
well enough. One remark only: if you would know that want them all the
same size (beforehand), you can call \evalwidth only once.

Like this maybe:

   \def\markline#1%
 {\conum{#1}%
  \expanded{\textreference[line#1]{\noexpand\conum{#1
   \def\refline#1{\in{line }[line#1]}

   \dorecurse{99}{\markline{\recurselevel}, }
   \dorecurse{99}{\refline{\recurselevel}, }

[NTG-context] beta

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

later taco will give more details about changes/additions in his change-log

for the moment:

- for index users: you can test utf 8, sort order (swedish) etc

- for cp1250 users: it's there and you only need to give \enableregime 
since the vector will be loaded at runtime

- for mojca: take a look at regi-syn and let me know what vectors need 
to be be added to the distribution

- for taco: thanks for your patience but textext seems to work ok now

Mojca, it would be nice if you could give a go/nogo signal quickly.
I am slowly getting drowned with all the diff files so I am really
eager to have Hans go ahead and release a new version :)


Here is the list compared to the 2006.03.31 beta.

new files:
* regi-cp1250.tex, regi-syn.tex




tex.rb:
* additional tcxflag-s when calling pdftex and mpost
* extra \setupsystem[\c!method=2]
* use one dash in front of passed-on options (instead of gnu-style
   double dashes)
* processmpx fixes so that textext() works again

texutil.rb:
* downcasing (register sort routines)

context.tex:
* \input sort-ini.tex  (only when newtexexec is used)
* \TEXEXECcommand{texmfstart newtexexec} when newtexexec is used
   (bugfix for textext())

core-itm.tex:
* new, expanded macro \getitemparameter

core-ref.tex:
* some \predefinereference and \predefinedreference changes (?)

core-sys.tex:
* new macro \systemparameter (for the \input sort-ini test)

enco-ini.tex:
* \docurrentencoding renamed to \dopureencodingname

meta-ini.tex:
* \settrue \manyMPspecials

page-flt.tex:
* "retain special alignments"

page-lay.tex:
* extended tests for layout states

page-txt.tex:
* optimization for background  calculations
* extended tests for layout states

sort-ini.tex:
* extra \savesortkey magic

sort-lan.tex:
* a bit of extra (test) code for sorting

supp-mps.tex:
* use \TEXEXECcommand

[NTG-context] placefigure feature request ?

[Renaud AUBIN]

Hi all,

It seems this is for you, Hans:

It would be nice if placefigure can be able to detect if the best place
is the top or the bottom of the page accordingly to its call, i.e.:
if placefigure call is near to the top -> figure will go to the top
else figure will go to the bottom...

Cheers,

Renaud

Re: [NTG-context] Miktex, Metapost and \loadfontfilesoncetrue

[WN]

Apologies for not replying to earlier emails. To be honest
it is sometimes difficult to keep track of the threads
and especially to whom the emails are directed.

I was/am busy in doing a lot of the Latex -> Context conversions
with a small perl script and this consumes a lot of my time.
Perhaps I should make this perl script public, as more people are making
the switch to Context, however my perl programming skills
are not that good, just a beginner. If someone is interested,
just write an email and I will send you a copy.

I will certainly try to follow and implement your suggetions
and I will try to give you feedback.

Thanks for your time/help
Kind regards

[NTG-context] tpm

[Hans Hagen]

Hi module writers,

If you have a valid subtree, like

tex/context/third/...
doc/context/third/...
tpm
etc

you can use "textools --tpmmake t-yourmodule" to update the filesize 
info in your tpm file as well as to generate a zip file

Hans

Re: [NTG-context] placefigure feature request ?

[Sanjoy Mahajan]

>> It would be nice if placefigure can be able to detect if the best
>> place is the top or the bottom of the page accordingly to its call,

A related point, which I didn't fiugre out how for my own TeX
figure-placement macros, is correct sequential numbering when some
figures are at the top of the page.  Some pseudocode on one page:

=== snip ===
\ref{figure:narrow} is a narrow figure.

\figuremacro{figure:narrow}{narrowfig.1}{A narrow figure.}

\ref{figure:wide} is a wide figure.

\figuremacro{figure:wide}{widefig.1}{A wide figure}
=== snip ===

Here \figuremacro figures out (sorry) that narrow figures go in the
margin and wide figures go at the top of the page.  But the page will
look funny: The narrow figure will be numbered, say, Figure 10, and
the wide figure will be Figure 11, but Figure 11 will appear before
Figure 10 on the page.  Which is disconcerting to the reader.  

One solution is to look at all the figures on the page and then number
them, instead of numbering them when \figuremacro is executed.  I
couldn't figure out how to do that in my TeX macros, but maybe there
are hooks into the context output routine for such tricks?

Ok, thanks.

I tried this, but I had a weird behaviour with size (I have the same  
behaviour with the Hans example), and the other thing is that the size to  
use depends on the environment where you are. In the verbatim text (where  
I ask small font) the circled numbers must be smaller than in the current  
text flow.

I see here the Hans touch again: it's better and I don't really understand  
how it works :-)
But there's something strange: the first circle is greater than the others  
(but the numbers have all the same size). Tracing a bit I see that the  
first circle has a width=16.5333pt, the others 13.19997pt. What's the  
reason for this?

Thanks much!

[NTG-context] XML element strip?

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello,

I have a strange question. While working with XML and ConTeXt, I have run
into the TeXnic problem of the interpretation of line breaks. What I would
prefer to do for code clarity sake are things like the following:

  
Something
  
  
else
  


This is however screwed up by TeXs line break interpretation, forcing me to
format the input like so:

  Something
  else


The question now is: is there any way to tell context to strip trailing
whitespaces/line breaks from XML nodes?

Thanks, Joh

[NTG-context] More on XML and citations

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello again,

I have a matching rule for cite commands that look as follows:


The rule is this (kudoos to Taco):
\defineXMLargument
  [cite]
  {\expanded{\cite[\XMLpar{cite}{opt}{}][\XMLpar{cite}{id}{}]}}

Sometimes I would like to have the '(Hunt et. al., 1986)' produced by above
combination to look like '(see e.g. Hunt et. al., 1986)'. Taco pointed out
in response to a question to list that I could do that by handing
a 'left={(see e.g. }' to the cite command, however I fail to be able to do
that. A XML node like this 

results on compilation with above rule in the following error:
! Missing \endcsname inserted.

[NTG-context] Cite module: APA citation proposals

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello,

I'm using Tacos cite module with the default APA style. I'm a biochemist and
the majority of my cited sources derives from www.pubmed.org, which I
import into BibTeX via pybliographic. I have some slight problems with the
formating as provided by the database and was wondering whether it's
possible to fix them ...
1) Titles from PubMed always end with a '.'. Since the cite module (at least
the version with Tetex in Debian unstable) does not check for the presence
of a '.', but just appends one, I end up with 2 '.'s after the title when
using a unmanipulated *.bib file. Would it be possible to include a check
for that into the module?
2) Pybliographic also delivers the article language in a 'language' field
and not in the 'lang' field the cite module expects, which terminates
compilation with an unmanipulated *.bib file. Would it be possible to make
the module more promiscuous in this respect?

Thanks for any consideration of these minor, but inconvenient, points,

Joh

- \XMLop (own parameter) saves a few bytes and can be used here

\defineXMLargument
  [cite]

hm, the problem is that the { } are  no longer tex's braces (grouping)

\starttext

\defineXMLcommand
  [whatever]
  [test=unknown]
  {\XMLop{test}}

\startXMLdata

\stopXMLdata

\def\defXMLtex#1#2% the appended space will go away when
  {\begingroup% \scantokens is fixed
   \disableXML
   \everyeof{\noexpand}% br's hack
   \edef\ascii{#2}%
   \edef\ascii{\scantokens\expandafter{\ascii}}% space appended
   \expandafter\endgroup\expandafter\def\expandafter#1\expandafter{\ascii}}
  
\defineXMLcommand
  [whatever]
  [test=unknown]
  {\defXMLtex\SomethingTex{\XMLop{test}}%
   \SomethingTex}

\startXMLdata

\stopXMLdata

\stoptext

so, then you can for instance feed \SomethingTex into the scite macros

however, best is not to mix tex this way with xml

I think I want the opposite.  The documentation for \setupfloats at
 says

  New option:
  numbering   yes nocheck (default yes)
nocheck causes no renumbering so it preserves figure's source order

My problem was that the source order (which is the order of first
reference, probably) is not the order on the page.  The wide figure
floats to the top of the page (because it's wide) even though its
source position is later than the narrower figure that fits in the
margin.

So 'numbering=yes' will number according to position on the page?

As I said, I work with the standalone distri?
And I thought, the binaries are from fptex, right?
And if both texexec.ini's are removed:

texexec complains: 

  warning: texexec.ini not found, try 'texexec --verbose'

(the same with texexec --verbose)

texexec (without parameters)

compiles cscite.bat! Why?

This works!

But next Problem:

pdfetex can not find pk-fonts.

I have written: 

PKFONTS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/pk//

in 'texmf.cnf'

font-file lies in

texmf-project/fonts/pk/ricoh/local/msl/msl50.pk

what else can I do?

[NTG-context] Myway on using mathalign

[WN]

Hi Aditya,

I read you MyWay document on using \startalign and I was
interested in section 4.2 numbering subformula's
Everything works fine as stated in your nice document.

One thing I want to do with a set of subformula's is 
to reference the main formula but still subnumbering the equations
like 
\starttext
\incrementnumber[formula]
\placesubformula
\startformula
\startalign
\NC div  \vec{E} \NC =  \epsilon_{0}^{-1} \rho  \NR[eqn1:A][a]
\NC rot  \vec{E} \NC =  0 \NR
\NC div  \vec{B} \NC =  0 \NR[eqn1:B][b]
\NC rot  \vec{B} \NC =  \mu_{0} \vec{j} \NR
\stopalign
\stopformula
See \in[eqn1] for the static Maxwell equations, where we are
going to examine \in[eqn1:A] a bit further 
\stoptext

Hope you can help
Thanks
Wim

Re: [NTG-context] Problem with encoding, XML and writetolist...

[Martin Kolařík]

Hi Hans,

I've analyzed the situation using different combinations of regimes and 
encodings, including switching off handling (\donothandleactivecharacter) and 
it seems to me, that every text with chars > 127, which is fully expanded (as 
in 8bit.tex), must cause difficulties, because TOC entry read back from TUO is 
scanned independently and thus spaces are gobbled.

Now I have solved it using not-stable solution -- I am using triple sequence of 
\expandafter to expand \XMLflush after \chapter instead \expanded. The solution 
is not stable as it is ConTeXt implementation dependent.

On the other side, now I do not know, how to partially expand code 
\chaper{\XMLflush{XMLTag}} to obtain sequence of simple unexpanded chars. 
Simple \expandafter is not sufficient, more \expandafters is dirty trick and 
full expansion (\expanded) leads to TOC entry problem. In TeX source this 
cannot occur (or can occur in strange situations :-), in XML source this is 
almost rule.

Maybe it would be useful to have in XML engine macro, which expands XMLdata 
exactly to get read (original) content (like mine triple \expandafter). Maybe 
such macro already exists and I am a real fool :-)

Thank you for help, have a nice day,

Martin

[NTG-context] Absolute positioning of grafics in ConTeXt

[Johannes Fichtinger]

Hi all, 

I'm quite new to ConTeXt, but I've been working with LaTeX for several years
now. Now I faced a problem which I'm not able to solve in LaTeX which
probably can be solved in ConTeXt:

I need a possibility to set grafics in a book on exact, absolute positions.
Now I found the way for background images, like in the attached example.
But obviously, normal text is written above the background image. I need
now a possibility like this but for foreground grafics.

So, how can I set the position of grafics absolutely in ConTeXt?

Thanks,
Johannes.

My example:

--
\enableregime           [il1]
\mainlanguage           [de]
\setuplayout            [grid=yes,marking=on,horoffset=2cm,veroffset=2cm]
\definepapersize        [jo][width=14cm,height=18cm]
\setuppapersize         [jo][a4]

\useexternalfigure[wr][dpm][type=png, width=5cm, height=4cm]
\definelayer[wr-layer]
\defineoverlay[wr-overlay][\composedlayer{wr-layer}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={wr-overlay}]

\starttext

\setlayer[wr-layer][x=-0.1cm,y=-0.1cm]{\externalfigure[wr]}
Blablabla

Easiest is by using a special macro breaking it up in two bits, like so:

   \def\mycite#1{\cite[author][#1], \cite[year][#1]}

there is a way to create 'official' alternatives, but it is quite a
bit more cumbersome.

Thanks. I will only compile the products and join then using 
--pdfcombine. Each product has separate pagenumbering, so this will 
work for my project as of now.

Hans, I will try to make a minimum example to illustrate the problem.

Thanks,
Aditya

Try this. Warning: I do not know everything that is happening here. 
There may be some unexpected side effects.

\unprotect

\def\doplacesubformulawithnumber[#1][#2]%#2 gobbles spaces

Also, note that div and rot should be in text font. You should 
probably do
\startmathcollection[default]
   \definemathcommand [div]  [nolop] {\mfunction{div}}
   \definemathcommand [rot]  [nolop] {\mfunction{rot}}
\stopmathcollection

and use \div \rot etc.

HTH,
Aditya
