in m-narrowtt it should be :

\definetyping[n\v!typing] \setuptyping[n\v!typing][style=\narrowtt]
\definetype  [n\v!type]   \setuptype  [n\v!type]  [style=\narrowtt]

anyhow, as i happen to use m-narrow last night (for an article) last night i 
found out that typefile didn't listen to narrowtt but that is fixed now

[NTG-context] pdfTeX-1.40 does not find format

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

I try to use the beta versions of ConTeXt and pdfTeX now and I find the
following issue (on latest TeX-live):
with "TEXFORMATS = .;$TEXMF/web2c/{$engine,}" in texmf.cnf and
pdfTeX-1.40.XXX, texexec --make writes the formats to
texmf-config/web2c/pdfetex but pdftex looks only into texmf-config/web2c
A symbolic link from texmf-config/web2c/cont-en.fmt to pdfetex/cont-en.fmt
solves the problem.

Is this issue already known and is there perhaps a better solution?

Cheers, Peter

pdfetex is no longer valid, it's pdftex now (includes etex); so. remove any 
trace of pdfetex, take the latest texexec, adn regenerate the formats 

(in this respect 1.40 is not downward compatible with tex live)

[NTG-context] temporary solution - Re: ConTeXt installation problem...

[Dalyoung]

Dear all,

After changing the mode of texmf.local as writable, I was able to  
update the ConTeXt.
However, it is not the normal installation.
Still ImageMagick and \externalfigure are not working properly. I  
don't know why it is not working in this notebook(G4) only.
Thank you.

Dalyoung

Hello Hans,
this is exactly what I did: I removed bin/pdfetex and web2c/pdfetex.pool
and then "texexec --make --all" puts its format to
web2c/pdfetex/cont-en.fmt
It's texexec from ConTeXt-2006.10.27

> (in this respect 1.40 is not downward compatible with tex live) 

Do you mean TeX live 2005 or the development version (svn-head)?

Does "not downward compatible" mean, that there are other more serious
issues?

each year downward compatibily has someho wbeen broken (changes in binaries, 
tds, font names; but by now texmfstart/texexec should catch such problems)

Re: [NTG-context] Printing ConTeXt books on Lulu? (Was: A new manual)

[Matthias Weber]

Not unless the copyright holders submit the material to Lulu.

In short, Lulu.com is a print-on-demand publisher with no costs  
involved for the
author: He or she uploads a 'book', specifies bindings and his/her  
royalties,
and if someone purchases the book, it is printed and send to the person.
A percentage o the royalties goes to Lulu. In particular, one can  
choose to publish
a book w/o royalties, then it will only cost the printing expenses.  
Downloads just cost the
royalties, if permitted. Finally, the author can choose among a range  
of copyright options.

Matthias

PS: On my personal wishlist, the #1 item is an updated version of con- 
eni.
I'd prefer a downloadable PDF, but I'd also buy a printed version.

[NTG-context] Printing ConTeXt books on Lulu? (Was: A new manual)

[Geoffrey Alan Washburn]

I figured I would try adjusting the subject to make the query a little 
more apparent.  Would it be possible to purchase some of the books on 
ConTeXt via Lulu?

That would be why I said "However, it would probably be best if the 
folks at PRAGMA ADE were to handle this to avoid some of the copyright 
issues, and they might as well be the ones receiving any profits from 
the sales."

[NTG-context] ctxtools unix puzzles

[plink]

Hi,

is it possible that the ruby script version numbers are not always updated?

I am getting a 648 line diff file when I compare two different 1.3.3 
versions of the ctxtools.rb file.

One of them, the smaller and older one, had some problems with quotes 
around environment variables, and it couldn't really upgrade the system 
because of a problem with unzip and execute permissions on texmfstart.rb

The other one has the same problem with execute permissions on 
texmfstart.rb, ending in the *slightly* dutchified report():

unable to remak formats

Or is there a way to call texmfstart.rb from the unix stub files without 
giving it execute permissions?

i dunno, but "ruby pathtotexmfstart ... " should work since then we're talking 
about text files

[NTG-context] yesterday's beta

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

Just to let you know that yesterday's beta has the same flaw that I  
reported a few days ago: something is wring with texutil.rb; the  
index it generates is incorrect. I get lots of warnings about  
"duplicate references" and these error messages at the end of the run:

TeXUtil | parsing file translation.tui

Also, texexec processes the file many many times; this didn't use to  
be the case.
