Re: [NTG-context] How to define your own math character (MK-IV)
Hi Hans Aditya
Please be patient as I am not a developer just someone who writes
documents.
I discovered the integral symbols starting at the double integral
are now composed by repeating the normal integral symbol
n-times. However in an earlier email I commented that they didn't
look right (something to do with setting the displaystyle (I think))
Then I discovered the Asana math font which has correct glyphs
The missing symbols for math-vfu.lua are
Asana math font
0x222B normal integral \int
0x222C double integral \iint
0x222D triple integral \iiint
0x222E contour integral \oint
0x222F surface integral \oiint
0x2230 volume integral \oiiint
I also need the space-time integral \nt (4 i's) but could
not find it in the Asana font
Note for the other math stuff the Asana math font does not work
like vectors and such. For $\vec{r}, \vec{R}$ the vector symbol is shifted
to the right and not aligned above the character (hope this make some sense
otherwise
forget it for the moment).
Kind regards
gummybears

With MkIV \cap and \nocap is no longer necessary when you have a

Re: [NTG-context] \nocap does not work
With MkIV \cap and \nocap is no longer necessary when you have a opentype font with the smcp (smallcapitals) and c2sc (capitals to smallcapitals) features. Thanks for your explanation. But why doesn't your example work with the latin modern fonts? Don't they have these features? I'd be surprised when they don't have small caps. I'm against wikifying MKII stuff. Maybe I'll add a MKII-only note. When I'm not completely mistaken I think its use should fade away in the near future. So creating documentation for MKII is a waste of time. Why are non-working commands like this not removed in MKIV? An undefined control sequence is easier debuggable than weird behaviour in my opinion. marco ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] Internet archive integration into bibliography
Hullo, lately I got an great idea(TM) concerning citing internet sources. \\ Initial problem: the internet is ever changing, what says on a page today, might not be there tomorrow and in ten years' time the page might not exist at all. \\ Solution so far: just smack the date (and time) next to the link. I've seen that often and my faculty expects this from me as well. \\ Problem with the solution so far: it doesn't solve anything really. \\ Solution(TM): along with the URL and date, add the Internet Archive's link from that time next to it as well. The ‘Solution(TM)’ is a bit tedious though, so it'd be great if ConTeXt could automate this process a bit. What I'm thinking is, if ConTeXt could take the URL and date stored in the bibliography (.bbl) and combine it together to form a URL of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine to point to that particular page at that particular time. In the document's bibliography then it could be rendered something like this: Wikipedia: ConTeXt; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt; as seen on the day: 12th of April 2010 at 13:45 With http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt; being a hyperlink to just that and 12th of April 2010 being a hyperlink to http://web.archive.org/web/20100412134500/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt Note: using any date and time works OK with the archive.org, since if the date doesn't exist in its database, it falls back to the last archived site before the date requested. What do you think? Would this make sense? If so, should we enable it by default?

Re: [NTG-context] Building a guitar chord using MP
Hurray!
I've got first draft version of guitar chord building macro. (With the
help of this excellent manual http://www.tug.org/docs/metapost/mpman.pdf )
% -- working version ---
\startuseMPgraphic{chordgrid}{e,B,G,D,A,E}
def fretmark(expr a,b) =
% a = string number
% b = fret number
pickup pencircle scaled 3pt;
drawdot(b*7-3, a*4.5-4.5);
enddef;
drawoptions(withpen pencircle scaled 0.4pt withcolor black) ;
draw hlingrid(0, 5, 1, 0.8cm, 1cm) ;
draw vlingrid(0, 4, 1, 1cm, 0.8cm) ;
fretmark(1,\MPvar{e});
fretmark(2,\MPvar{B});
fretmark(3,\MPvar{G});
fretmark(4,\MPvar{D});
fretmark(5,\MPvar{A});
fretmark(6,\MPvar{E});
\stopuseMPgraphic
\define[6]\Ch
{\dontleavehmode
\useMPgraphic{chordgrid}{e={#1},B={#2},G={#3},D={#4},A={#5},E={#6}}%
\hskip2mm}
\starttext
\Ch{1}{3}{1}{2}{1}{4}
\stoptext
However, my current trouble is chord caption (like Am). Except wrong
placement of the label, adding seventh non-numerical argument to the
macro throws an error.

Thanks for your explanation. But why doesn't your example work with the latin modern fonts? Don't they have these features? I'd be surprised when they don't have small caps. They don't have a small caps OpenType feature (smcp) for a reason beyond to me, they however have an old-fashioned separate small caps font. this is because they are cm compatible (the initial objective of the project was a merge of all those variants) in the future we might have extra lm fonts that have those features but the team is still not sure if this should be done ... it makes much sense for consistency to have smallcaps merged in the normal shapes but even then there would be a separate smallcaps font as well A separate small caps font made sense for Type1 fonts (where CM compatibility would matter), but for OpenType fonts I fail to see the reasoning for this. I would liked to send patches to LM fonts project, but they don't have a source repository and their work flow depends on proprietary software that I cannot afford. concerning the workflow you're wrong ... they use public tools like metatype1 which is free ... and they're currently building a tool chain for the math fonts I was referring to OpenType programming where they use Adobe AFDKO which is a proprietary software that run only on proprietary OS, and with lack of sources I can't even provide patches against the feature files, I can make modified fonts but I don't think they will accept it. Even MetaType1, it is written with only Windows users in mind; I can't use the supplied batch files and I can't understand them (with no documentation at all) to write a replacement. concerning the repos you're right ... given earlier experiences with lack of quality assurance in public fonts the lm/gyre project follows strickt procedures and only the core team can patch ... of course you can send suggestions and patches but the core team decides Closed development is not the solution for lack of proper QA, proper QA is the solution; you can have open development model with public repos, bug tracker, roadmaps etc. and still maintain a strict QA process, there are many free software projects with very high QA standards but still running an open development model. With open development you encourage potential contributors who may or my not very valuable to you project. fyi: the gyre team (gust font foundation) has now reverted to the core urw fonts for which they got the copyright and it made it possible to get rid of some ugly artefacts and glyphs (again, lack of qa had rendered the latest public urw fonts somewhat useless) There is still a long way to go, the Greek glyph for example are ranging from suboptimal to pure crap.

I think merging would be the best option. That way we have a modern typeface. Maybe we can carry around the seperate small caps for compatibility. That doesn't seem to harm. marco ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] footnote marks fail
Footnotes are normally marked with superior figures both in the text
and before the footnote itself. Context's defaults prevent this, and
I can't figure out how to change the defaults.
1. The defaults
So that no imagination is necessary, here is a minimal example:
\starttext
text\footnote{footnote}
\stoptext
I have to guess what Context is doing. It looks like it's taking the
regular numbers from the font, shrinking them somehow and elevating
them. It does this in unequal amounts for the marks in text and the
marks before footnotes. In both cases, the number is so light it's
barely readable. In the case of the mark before the footnote, it's
raised much too high.
Normal, professional fonts have superior figures in them that are used
for footnote marks. It _should_ be possible to use them, that is.
All I want to do is turn off the default scaling and raising behavior
of Context footnote marks so I can do this, and finally get normal
looking footnotes. No doubt, people will object that they don't have
my font in the room with them, and it is therefore impossible to think
about the problem. So, I repeat myself: all I want to do is turn off
the default scaling and raising.
2. My first stab at correcting this.
WARNING: I have a font with the opentype features 'sups' and 'numr'.
You might not have this font, but it is still possible to think about
the problem: the problem is not my font, but Context's defaults.
\definefontfeature[su][default][sups=yes]%superior
\definefontfeature[nu][default][numr=yes]%numerator
\newcommand{\fnstyle}{\switchtobodyfont[12pt]\addff{su}}
\setupnote[footnote][numbercommand=\fnstyle,textcommand=\fnstyle\tfa]
(Note: my body font is 12pt.)
This is as close as I could get to correcting the problem. When I do
this, the marks in text look a little too low, too short and much too
bold. It looks like Context is still scaling and elevating on its
own. The marks before the footnotes are much too large and far, far
too high. Context seems to be trying to squeeze them between the
lines. This also seems to force extra space between the separate
footnotes, even though I have grid on.
If I try using numerators instead of superiors (they look the same but
are lower), the marks in text look too bold and far too low. The
marks before the footnotes are at the right height, but too big.
DISCLAIMER: it is not necessary to own my font in order to think
about this problem. The issue is the default scaling and raising that
Context applies to footnote marks. I want to turn it off.
