How about an entry on the wiki?
\dimexpr and \numexpr are explaines in the e-tex manual.

Best,

The only important thing for \dimexpr is to write the dimen value
as first value after the \dimexpr command and then the numeric values.

I, too, do not understand the
\definetextbackground
\starttextbackground
\stoptextbackground
commands, even though I tried looking at details.pdf (and core-
pgr.tex).
My particular problem is rather classic, that of illustrating
examples, set off from the main text.
I first used
\defineframedtext [example]
[width=fit,background=screen,backgroundscreen=0.7]
\startexample
...
\stopexample
and this is appropriate if the example is short enough to fit on one
page.
However, a long example (many paragraphs) that spans more than one
page
runs off the bottom.
Textbackground seems more appropriate, so I tried
\definetextbackground [example]
[location=paragraph,backgroundcolor=middlegray,frame=off]
\definestartstop [example]
[before={\starttextbackground[example]},after=\stoptextbackground]
but this does not work. I tried other variants (such as adding
state=start, ...) with no success.
Does anyone have suggestions on where to look for further
documentation or examples of use?
This works for me.
\setupcolors[state=start]
\definetextbackground

For me this works only with context 2008-10-31.
It doesn't work with the beta from 2008-01-18 (no background).

[NTG-context] Background on paragraphs
Hi all, I'm new to ConTeXt but not new to LaTeX and I really enjoy to learn again something new and that seems to be cleaner in syntax at least. By reading the excursion, I typed something that did not work on my computer. It is about the background on paragraphs. I've a big black background and we cannot see the text. I attached the PDF file produced. I used texexec : % texexec TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD and the following code : \setupbackground[background=screen,corner=round] \starttext \startbackground Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

\apj is the shortcut used in bibtex for Astrophysical Journal but, as
you can see, I have substituted it for the full name everywhere in the

grep 'apj' GW2.tex
and
grep 'apj' cole.bib
yield nothing
A bit more of information: This is

OpenBSD spree 4.4 GENERIC#1638 i386
and
spree(p3)| texexec -v
TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD
The full output of texexec follows below. As you can see, there are a
lot of warnings, but they look as they look when in LaTeX I compile
for the first time the document. The warnings disappear when I
recompile it, because it needs a second time. I'm not sure of the
meaning in ConTeXt.
Any hint?
Help will be appreciated

It was a brave and wonderful effort to automate installation of fonts, but I gave up using it - not because texfont itself is bad, but because so many fonts are just faulty and/ or idiosyncratic, and automatization just can't handle all these eceptions. I always had to double-check and edit files by hand, so I decided to go for a manual process. The --lcdf switch was added by Adam Lindsay, who also wrote a short article about otf and ConTeXt: http://www.tug.org/pracjourn/2005-2/lindsay/lindsay.pdf Too bad Adam isn't active anymore, he was a great help in ConTeXt development. If you search the mailing list archive for texfont lcdf, you will see that the problem with the empty map file is common and was never really solved, AFAIK. So you have several options: 1. install the fonts manually 2. use texfont and write the map file manually 3. try Patrick's otfinst http://wiki.contextgarden.net/otfinst 4. I have a set of support files for using Cronos and Warnock with pdftex; if you want, I can make a zip and send them to you (not before Thursday, however). the free version of lucida (.ttf) that ship with Java files worked fine 2. is there someone i must do to get to dashes working properly? as in, --- doesn't generate the right dash nor does --. These are defined as ligatures in the tfm/vf files. Doesn't texfont produce vpl-files as an intermediate format? You could open those and check whether the ligature is defined. It probably isn't, and then you have to hunt down the reason or add it manually...

[NTG-context] BibTeX in ConTeXt natbib style

\cite[p. 113]{Bell1992} to get: (Bell, 1992, p. 112)

\setupcite [author][left=,right=]
\setupcite [year][left=,right=]
\def\CiteP#1#2%
{(\cite[author][{#2}]%

And:
\def\CiteA#1#2%
{\cite[author][{#2}]%

)}
\CiteA{p. 13}{article-full}
It works alright, but it seems rather crude to me.
Is there a more elegant way?
Or maybe more to the point: a way in which I do not have to use \setupcite?

Re: [NTG-context] BibTeX in ConTeXt natbib style
Thanks a lot!
How can I have missed that ... it's in the wiki...

In LaTeX when using the natbib package I can use:
\citet[p. 113]{Bell1992} to get: Bell (1992, p.\ 112)
\cite[alternative=authoryear, extras={, p. 112}][Bell1992]
\cite[p. 113]{Bell1992} to get: (Bell, 1992, p. 112)
\cite[alternative=authoryears, extras={, p.\ 113}][Bell1992]
Aditya
Trying to do this in ConTeXt I came up with this:
\setupcite [author][left=,right=]
\setupcite [year][left=,right=]
\def\CiteP#1#2%
{(\cite[author][{#2}]%
,\ \cite[year][{#2}]%
,\ {#1}
)}
\CiteP{p. 13}{article-full}
And:
\def\CiteA#1#2%
{\cite[author][{#2}]%
\ (\cite[year][{#2}]%
,\ {#1}
)}
\CiteA{p. 13}{article-full}
It works alright, but it seems rather crude to me.
Is there a more elegant way?
Or maybe more to the point: a way in which I do not have to use
\setupcite?
Thanks in advance,
Adriaan.
P.S. I made my first contribution to the wiki:

[NTG-context] unwanted rgb--gray conversion (mkiv)
Hi Hans,
The attached example works fine with mkii (text and gfx both use RGB
colors). Using mkiv reduces the colorspace of the graphic to GRAY.
Sadly PDFX/-4 doesn't allow to mix color profiles of colorspace RGB with
GRAY ones. So I'm forced to always use the RGB colorspace...
Best wishes, Peter

\stopuniqueMPgraphic

Hello Mr. Hagen,
Thanks for your kind reply. I have a MikTeX system installed on Windows
XP. The context is part of the installation.
Although I think that all packages mentioned below are installed I get
some error messages in the log. The dvi output is generated, but the
errors are strange. Is this a kind of incompatibility described in a FAQ?
Best regards,
Helge Kruse

Hello,
I read about PPCHTEX and I would like to use it in my LaTeX environment. I got
errors with the the first \usepackage{mp-ch-de}. Can you provide a link to a
HOWTO-use-PPCHTEX-with-LaTeX?
Best regards,

As an example:
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{m-pictex,m-ch-en}
\begin{document}
\setupchemical[size=small,scale=200,width=fit,frame=off]
\startchemical
\chemical[SIX,B,C,R,RZ][R,R,R,R,R,R]
\stopchemical
\end{document}
On my Debian system, I had to install the context package (of course)
as well as the texlive-pictures package (for pictex) for this to work.

This problem was mentioned once 2007 and Hans fixed it
and I don't get it with TeXLive 2008.
Can you send use the file ppchtex.noc from your system,
it's possible MikTeX includes a old version of the file
without the patch.

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.
How do I use the new separator code? Using the hint in strc-sec I tried
\let\spr\separatorlist % this will enable this feature
\setuphead[section] [separator={?,!,*}]
\setuphead[subsection][separator={??,!!,**}]
\starttext
\chapter{test}
\section{test} \subsection{test} \subsection{test}
\section{test} \subsection{test} \subsection{test}
\stoptext
I get the default separators. I do not see where
\separatorlist is defined.
Also, it is possible to use different separators in heads and when they
are referenced. Specifically, I am trying to achieve IEEE formatting
guidelines which state
In the head only show the current number
Section I.
Subsection B.
Subsubsection 3)
paragraph a)
While refereing to a section, use
Section I
Subsection I-A
subsubsection I-A.1
paragraph I-A.1.a
Can the current implementation of separator sets achieve this?
