any clue in the logfile: leaving out both empty curly braces generates no
error message and the file typesets beautifully except for this one detail,
a vertical instead of the desired horizontal arrangement of two figures. But
when one leaves out only one of the empty curly braces the file does not
typeset at all and there is a clear (well, fairly clear) error message. Like
what happens for instance when one leaves out the {} for the caption
after \placefigure[][].
A useful experience anyway. Thanks again.

I guess there's not going to be an official way anymore, according to
yourself (http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2007/026680.html), but
you can always use the original definition:
\def\savebuffer{\dosingleempty\dosavebuffer}
\def\dosavebuffer[#1]{\ctxlua{buffers.save("#1")}}

Re: [NTG-context] setuptex changes in minimals
Hi, list: Well, TeX is evolving rapidly these years (especially in the LuaTeX world). So there are many things that Chinese typographers never imagine about in the past can now be solved thanks to LuaTeX's development. For example: - Now we can use Lua to detect the character code. so it is possible to assign different fonts for latin, CJK, CJK-ext A, CJK-extB. font switching is easy and elegent. This is not possible in tex82. - It is ugly to produce a paragraph whose last line only consists one Chinese character. In order to avoid that, tex82 programmers should write very complicated macros. So many developers here tend to ignore this problem. However, in LuaTeX, this is quite easy. It is simple to scan the position before the punctuation and \par in lua, and insert a line break penalty there. - Punctuation compression. In the past this is not easy to do (a lot of macros should be defined), and because each Chinese fonts are so distinctly designed, their punctuations' positions in the character box are different. So different parameters should be applied when different fonts are involved in typesetting. However, LuaTeX make it possible to calculate character bounding box information, so punctuation compression is as easy as re-setting the punctuation width. There are many more examples, and these are just three. But we can see that with the development of TeX engine (especially the open-up of TeX engine), users might consider better ways for old solutions, and even request for possibilities they never thought about before. So it is possible for different users to provide different specifications. But we (me, Li Yanrui, Chen Zhichu) as the board members of the Chinese TeX Society, will try our best to organized the typesetting discussion on local forums, taking different opinions into consideration, and later provide a complete specification as long as we can. Chinese support in ConTeXt is not easy, we should thank all the developers who contribute to our language (esp, Hans, Taco and Wolfgang), their innovation and hardworking make Chinese typesetting in ConTeXt possible, and drastically improve the performance of font loading. Though the current solution is not perfect (eg. there are many more things we should fix and implement, and the current font loading time is still a bit too long), I think with the current fast pace, we will have a very prospective solution near luatex 1.0:) Yue Wang On 5/9/09, Yanrui Li wrote: > On Sat, May 9, 2009 at 4:02 PM, Hans Hagen wrote: > > Yue Wang wrote: > >> > >> On Sat, May 9, 2009 at 2:20 AM, Yanrui Li wrote: > >>> > >>> Sorry! > >>> > >>> s/MkIV have not support Chinese typesetting now / MkIV have not > >>> support Chinese typesetting well now/g > >> > >> > >> We can start a fork of scrp-* on code.google.com/p/ctex-kit, > >> making a usable version, and later ask Hans to merge back into ConTeXt. > > > > it all depends how scrp evolves as it has to deal with more issues too; i > > will not merge code that i don't fully understand but experimenting does not > > hurt; one problem with script stuff is that (in the future) it might be > > closely cooperate with other mechanisms of context (it used to be part of > > the font analyser, now it's plugged in elsewhere but even that might change, > > for instance when in upcoming versions of luatex we have a bit more control) > > > > What I have done is only experiment.

I just wrote a mail, and only afterwards I’ve seen on the mail archive
that the subject/prob was already ok.
It seems that I can’t receive the actual mails in my inbox, only after
an indeterminable delay they are delivered.
I dont receive either my own mails (yes, the box in the config is

Thanks to Mojca and Tom,
With Mojca’s commands, {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}, it works for me
too. But I do not want the figures framed. When I replace that piece
with {\externalfigure[NameofFigure]}, the figures are placed
vertically, both with [2*1] and with [1*2].
I have uploaded a folder with a small testfile, which on my Mac
shows this behaviour, as you can see in the pdf. (For convenience I
have entered the two possibilities in the testfile, one of them
commented out.) It can be downloaded from http://web.me.com/blackstone.robert/filechute/Combining_Figures.zip
.
Maybe there are some other errors in the file that I do not know of.
Thanks for the attention.

Thanks to Mojca and Tom,
With Mojca’s commands, {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}, it works for me too. But I
do not want the figures framed. When I replace that piece with
{\externalfigure[NameofFigure]}, the figures are placed vertically, both
with [2*1] and with [1*2].
I have uploaded a folder with a small testfile, which on my Mac shows this
behaviour, as you can see in the pdf. (For convenience I have entered the
two possibilities in the testfile, one of them commented out.) It can be
downloaded from
http://web.me.com/blackstone.robert/filechute/Combining_Figures.zip.
Maybe there are some other errors in the file that I do not know of.
Thanks for the attention.
Best regards,
Robert Blackstone
