[NTG-context] for the brave
Hi, I uploaded beta zip with a prelude to the new structure related code. I hope that I didn't forget files. context --make xp will generate the experimental format (you really need a luatools --generate because there are many new files). With context --interface=xp yourfile will use that format. Eventually the xp format will go away but this is a nice intermediate step for those who are willing to help debugging the code. Those who look into the source ... it all happens in strc-*.tex|lua and when you look in the tua/tuc file you see what is carried around (this will be optimized). Much code still needs a rewrite. The format file is slightly smaller and less hash space is used, in spite of more functionality. This is a side effect of a more dynamic inheritance model (slower, but not so much an issue noaways and compensated by speedups in other areas like one time multipass data reading). For xml users: although somewhat experimental, we now have roundtrip xml in lists (and some other constructs, more to come). \setuphead[chapter][expansion=xml] This only works for mkiv xml, as we also keep track of the document root in order to apply the right setups. For Aditya: numbering of math is redone and soon we have to split up strc-mat into pieces (when we start doing unicode math) but you can already have a look at it. Don't worry too much if your documents crash. I simply cannot test everything so it might be a good opportunity for volunteers to help documenting behaviour and making tests. The main incompatibilities are in the numbering: we now use sets for numbering, seperators, converters etc as well as processors for specific layout of these thingies. This info is carried around so that intermediate style changes are reflected in tables of contents and references (of course they can be overloaded). It's the price we pay fro more flexibility.

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts readily available in Context - Did not work
Hello, apart from what others have written you (to install pxfonts, to use \usetypescript[palatino][ec] if you are using pdfTeX and not xetex or luatex), you can also try to update ConTeXt if you know what you are doing*. Or at least a warning should be in place: the latest ConTeXt uses TeX Gyre + pxfonts exclusively, while the older ConTeXt uses URW fonts. The difference is tiny, but there is some. Mojca * If you don't know what you are doing, then using the version that comes with TeX Live might be safer, but you won't be able to test any improvements that might arise on your request Thanks you all once again for your help. I installed pxfonts and the command now works great and I do get the Palatino output. I am very new to Context and this last week was mainly a kind of trial to see how I like it. So far I love what I see. Also, I think the fact that there are so many helpful people here in this forum has convinced me that if I get stuck with something, which I will, there are experts whom I could ask for help. Hence, I have decided to use it for most of my documents. Things are very busy now, and hence for the next month or so I plan to continue using the version that comes with TeXlive, but after that I will try to update and get the latest stable version. I hope that in future Context makes more fonts available. For now it seems I will be using Palatino, which is good too. Thanks again. ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
