Re: [NTG-context] framed getbuffer
Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini wrote: Hallo! The following simple example doesn't compile (ConTeXt ver. 2007.01.02 and Live ConTeXt). What am I doing wrong? Diagnostics: The problem is not caused by the \framed, but by the (lack of) parsing done by the buffering routines. Because the \startformula is not expanded, TeX does not realise you are in math mode, so it objects to the ^ character. This is 'not right' but I suspect it is not all that simple to fix the context core to do this properly (I would love to be proved wrong). You probably have to create small input files and use \input and \typefile instead Best wishes, Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Hi all,
I'm afraid there still seems to be a problem with the XeTeX
engine ... try to compile the following (I guess you can choose
whichever OpenType font you have on your machine):
---
\definetypeface[Caslon][rm][Xserif][Adobe Caslon Pro]
\setupbodyfont[Caslon,12pt]
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext

My machine spills out the following messages:

Hi all,
I am pleased to announce that the new ConTeXt release from Hans Hagen
can be downloaded as of now from the Pragma ADE website or one of its
mirrors.
http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/current/cont-tmf.zip
http://context.aanhet.net/context/current/cont-tmf.zip
http://mirror.contextgarden.net/context/current/cont-tmf.zip
The current release has version 2007.03.19
As usual, there is an html page with more detailed release notes
available on the Wiki, see:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Release_Notes
Highlights:
* Aditya's 'mathsets' modules in included in cont-ext.zip
* The use of \setuphead[][numberwidth=...]
* Named font styles can now also be 'sans' or 'sansbold'
* The old marvosym metric file is included, fixing the 'MarvoSym'
symbols and '\texteuro' bugs
* Quoting of font files is changed so that hopefully XeTeX
bare fontfiles are OK now.
* For some other small changes, see the wiki page
Happy TeXing,
Taco Hoekwater

The problem lies here:

Some definitions have indeed been changed, but no keyword equivalent
for mapping has been introduced yet. (Adding file:, name:, ... broke
that functionality ...)
There is a workaround (quick fix) for this (at least it seems to work
here), but this is not a nice solution. You can add the following
definitions at the beginning of the document (or fix the corresponding
places; also for sans ad mono):
\starttypescriptcollection[xetex]
\starttypescript[Xserif][all][name]
