On Mac that would mean putting export OSFONTDIR=$HOME/Library/Fonts:/Library/Fonts:/System/Library/Fonts to ~/.bash_profile, but since yesterday that is not needed any more unless you keep your fonts at some exotic locations.

Re: [NTG-context] distro info
The fact IMHO is that there's a potentially large base of ConTeXt users which are willing to learn the syntax but are scared about terminals, setting paths etc (well, me too: knowing substantially nothing of unix I'm never comfortable with unix aspects of my system) So, an installer is really welcome.

Exactly what I need. But will you include TeXShop? You can use the existing TeXShop or any other editor. Besides that, in summer or autumn a new cross-platform editor by Jonathan Kew will be available. Will the tex file system be local (i.e. separated from the usual locations) ? You will be able to use PreferencePane to select whether you want to use MacTeX or ConTeXt minimals (and which version), and that will be done globally. /usr/texbin will be a symlink to binaries.

Well, I've very little ConTeXt knowledge to actually understand this. My main point was that non-printable formatting characters like ZWNJ, ZWJ should be font independent i.e. when I insert a ZWNJ it inhibits the joining of Arabic letters without being printed, the font having or not having a glyph for it shouldn't affect this. In the other hand, it should be their so that when I copy the text I get it (since it is part of the input and has semantical value). Is this what we have here?

[NTG-context] context command and the bbl file
Hi all, I have a file with citations. Using: "context myfile" does not create the bbl file when needed (but reads it when it exists). "texexec --lua myfile" does the expected job.

I don't think this will work, since /usr/share/fonts and /usr/share/fonts/truetype have multiple subdirs (per package) that has the actuall fonts, does context look into subdirs as well or the top dir only.

I don’t think we need something universal. But there is a lot of common guidelines for most things. For instance, text, music, chess boards and pictures all have to fit or fill their place in a page, and all can have a common main font to be used. > Yet he (...) sees the value of maintaining a knowledge base that > is predictable when it runs on a program that can pass the trip > test. Actually, I’m trying to show my dad he can trust a computer to typeset his class notes, if we use the right tools (i.e., Context plus Metapost instead of what was used for his books in the 90’s, when just a small change would ruin everything). But I’ve just used ‘ϕ’ in a math formula for one of his papers and Context silently ignores it. I’m sure there's a good reason for that. But TeX is predictable when you write a default TeX style document. If you leave it, you have to understand a lot of hidden issues, and a dummy user like me will never know if all of them have been taken care of. > Lose that for the sake of innovation, and you can lose real > knowledge.

It's great to use 80% of your time thinking about what you want to write and 20% about typesetting.

Re: [NTG-context] How could a typesetting system be today?
Thanks, Idris, for your interest. I don’t understand enough about typesetting and computer math to make an informed sugestion, but I’ll try my best. What about a Metapost-like main engine to define the general layout of pages? That engine would know about borders, floating spaces for pictures or text, and handle “global” information like main fonts or page numbers etc.; and even draw on the page. Plug-ins would render specific information. The main engine could also do Metapost-like operations on what comes from that rendering. That engine would call plug-ins to render anything, using a standard human-writable tag language. The engine will provide plug-ins a shape they should fill, as well as tips on how to fill it (“amount of ink”, how to deal with unconnected shapes, available fonts etc.); and share information with plug-ins so they can know, for instance, which symbols can be used for footnotes, and inform back which ones they have used. Plug-ins would respond rendered results, as well as indicators about how good is the result and what could be done to get it better (less or more to render, adjusts in their area shape etc.). Main engine and plug-ins would negociate good parameters, shapes and information set until they are both happy (enough). The reason for a standard tag language is that the main engine should be able to do some operations on data, like breaking it in pieces like words, paragraphs or staffs on music scores, sometimes without fully understanding what exactly those are. Possible outcomes: with a proper script language (Lua?), things like tables, multi-column text, and even a lot of crazy ideas could be really easy to write. Plug-ins results would be predictable, since they know nothing about the world except what the main engine has informed them.
