ok fixed. a while ago i adapted the font related lua code to use named 
parameters instead of indexed (both are possible in luatex but i only 
copy the named ones further down the chain of events) and the spacing 
was still using indexed ones)

i'll make a new beta

Re: [NTG-context] Geeze, I might try Linux after all... (not too off-tpic I hope)

2008-06-19 Thread Alan Stone
Hi,

I've have Ubuntu 8.04 running in a VirtualBox under WXP. No dual boot setup
necessary any more. How Cool ! Works like a charm - apart from a USB printer
problem.

Installed TeX, ConTeXt and XeTeX through the Package Manager (to test
whether it worked).

Now trying to update ConTeXt with

ctxtools --updatecontext

which gives

CtxTools | updating
/etc/texmf:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf-texlive
CtxTools | unable to change to
/etc/texmf:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf-texlive

whether I'm in root or not !???

What's the corresponding command for XeTeX ? ( tried --updatexetex which
failed )

Best,
Alan

[NTG-context] Feature request: \digits command

2008-06-19 Thread Morgan Brassel
Hi everyone,

The \digits command is really great when it comes to typeset numbers in 
different languages. However, I miss one functionality from the numprint 
package in latex: when you type for example $e-5$, you get 10^{-5} (with 
no dot in front of it).

Would it be possible to add an option to \digits to reproduce this?

Best wishes,
Morgan

What kind and size of font you suggest to maximize readability saving paper?

There is no official Arabic interface to ConTeXt  yet. For now you  
just create your own registers and format them in imitation of "Contents,  
Index, List of tables, etc..". It's not hard, see Ch.~9 of the main  
context manual. For labeling, use the sectioning mechanism from Ch.~8.

I'm currently using MiKTeX which doesn't have LuaTeX integrated yet.
Is there a way to make LuaTeX work with it or would it be easiest to
go with minimal ConTeXt instead (or along)? My OS is Windows XP as it
most probably matters when deciding between available tools.

Thanks,

Index sorting in MkIV works currently only for english, dutch, czech and german.

Take a look at "sort-lan.lua" to know what you have to do.

[NTG-context] Custom starting text of table and figure labels

2008-06-19 Thread Aleksandr
Hello,

Is it possible to define custom starting text of a table of picture label? For 
example so that figure would have a label like "Picture 1" instead of "Figure 
1" or a table would have "Spreadsheet 1" instead of "Table 1".

Thank you!

Why should this work, XeTeX is a binary and ConTeXt a TeX macro package
independant of the engine (one fits it all).
