Re: [NTG-context] simplebib

2010-04-13 Thread Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini
  Sorry, I meant the first only.
 
  There are two commands \bibitem and \bibsource which are not clear
 to me.
 
 When i decode the code (ugly formatting) correct this works:
 
 \starttext
 
 bla \in{book}[knuth:1] bla
 
 bla \bibref[knuth:2]{} bla
 
 bla \bibref[knuth:3]{} bla
 
 \startbibliography
 
 \bibitem[knuth:1]{} Donald E. Knuth, The \TeX book
 
 \bibitem[knuth:2]{Knuth} Donald E. Knuth, The \METAFONT-book
 
 \bibsource[key=knuth:3,title=The Art of Computer Programming,...]
 
 \stopbibliography
 
 \stoptext
 
 Wolfgang

That means that these two commands are alternatives.

Do you know who is the author of this. There is a version number 0.04 
and the comment (still in development). I have made some corrections 
and don't want to do this in the wiki without contacting the author.
There should also be a example of usage, maybe yours?

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.


this is not the place to elaborate on this (more for the usual font bof 
session at bachotek) but to some extend it's a packaging issue: why a 
full smallcaps embedded but not an italic; a similar discussion is 
taking place with regards to the lm math fonts: either or not to embed 
the three sizes as in practice one might want to combine different 
design sizes anyway



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.


the team is considering to use fontforge in script mode but then the 
oppososite is happening as fontforge does not run that well on windows 
(needs mingw or cygwin + some x server) which is not much different from 
running AFDKO in wine or so


and just like metatype1's toolkit is written with windows (actually dos) 
in mind (the toolkit evolved over many years an at that time there was 
no easy to use linux around anyway) many other tools in the tex suite of 
programs have a strong bias towards unix so it's a all matter of history 
and as the gust foundation team is the official team for tex related 
font development they have been given complete freedom in choosing their 
tools



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.


sure, but there has been many discussions about this (mostly at bachotex 
i admit) and other font experts present (in addition to the team) there 
also have their worries about sensitive things like patching fonts ... 
of course a patch for a otf generator is not the same as a patch for a 
shape and it's the shapes that i was talking of .. it's already somewhat 
debatable to add shapes to artistic work



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.


indeed, greek and cyrillic are the shapes that will be kicked out and 
redone as they're bugged and crappy (something that happens when anyone 
can add to a font and the main reason why the team wanted to get the 
copyright on the originals so that they can kick out bad stuff cq. start 
from scratch)

you cannot trust open type features like sups and frac as you can never

are okay; some of these features are really meant to be applied 
specifically (select piece of text and apply in dtp)

Thanks, Taco.  I tried the following:

and it almost works.  The third and fourth '1' look the same, but the
first and second '1' (those in the text) are different.  The second is
on the baseline, but it has been scaled much smaller than the first.
I want to turn off even this scaling.

My eventual plan is to use my sups for this (they seem to work fine
for me), but for now I'd be content to turn the automatic scaling off.
 By the way, of these four keys (textcommand, numbercommand, style,

It is usually used by CJK fonts since italic is only for LGC part of the
font.
Combining fonts with different design sizes is not usually good idea
since they have different metrics and hinting zones etc. making the
merge pointless. You can use TTC to collect several fonts in one file,
though.

Re: [NTG-context] \nocap does not work

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

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.
   
\cap and \nocap are still usefull in MkIV because not each font has 
smallcaps

features and there are cases where you prefer fakecaps over smallcaps.

Hans rewrote also the macros for \cap which use now the same mechanism
as \word and \WORD in MkIV and this exampke produce the same result.

\starttext
\WORD{\tx text text text \WORD{\tx text} text \word{text} text}
\stoptext

 Thanks, Taco.  I tried the following:

 and it almost works.  The third and fourth '1' look the same, but the

 on the baseline, but it has been scaled much smaller than the first.
 I want to turn off even this scaling.

   Actually, you can do that with OpenType: there is an 'ital' feature,
and using it would allow to embed italic correction information within
the fonts.  You can't do that with fonts of different design sizes,
alas.


italic correction or italic alternates?

developed (should this accent be a few nanometers more this or that way) 
already took quite some time and energy


as said: patches or suggestions with respect to ordening of the glyphs

They already shipped glyphs with such poor artistic value, being in the
Ghostscript fonts is not an excuse, they could have resorted to the
original URW fonts, which were released under GPL, from the start if
quality is so high priority to them. So, I don't see how welcoming

miserable state of some areas of the fonts.


the miserable shaped would have been improved if there had been any

gave any feedback (about right shapes to start with) and as such they 
became a burden. Of course greek has to be brought in (maybe from px/tx) 
again when math is done.


of course, if someone would provide the perfect cyrillic / greek shapes 
that would be great but even then adding them officially should go 
through the team and be part of the normal assembling process


so, feel free to come up with or improve shapes (i suppose that the team 
wants them in metatype 1 format) ... the gust foundry people are quite 
open and show up at tex meetings on a regular basis (also to give 
detailed progress reports)

Thanks, Peter.  With some experimentation I got what I wanted.  For

\definefontfeature[su][body][sups=yes,ordn=yes]%superior
\definefontfeature[nu][body][numr=yes]%numerator
\definefontfeature[po][body][pnum=yes,onum=yes]%proportional old style

\setupnote[footnote][location=columns,numbercommand=\fnmstyle,textcommand=\fntstyle,textstyle=\addff{su},align={normal,hanging},split=verystrict,interaction=yes]

I don't know quite why it works, but it works---except for one little
thing---there is a little vertical space between each footnote
(apparently because of the \switchtobodyfont[12pt]).

So I have one more question:  is there a way to force the footnotes
onto their own grid to prevent this?  I am already using
\setuplayout[...,grid=verytolerant], which I thought would take care
of it.

[NTG-context] Custom verb-c inside my working directory

Hi,
in MKII the following code produces the wrong result ('* x;')

\usemodule[verb-c]
\starttext
\startC
int* x;
\stopC
\stoptext

I know that I should use \definetyping[C][option=C] instead of 
\usemodule.

The fact is, what I am actually loading is a customized verb-c file that 
I've put inside my working directory (and I have also renamed). How to 
reconcile the use of \definetyping with a local file?

   The TeX Gyre page starts with a list of names.  And the first paper in
 the Readings section lists e-mail addresses.  Have you tried
 contacting them?

Apparently not, again for some reason I'd always the feeling that they
are not interested in feedback (I also usually try to provide fixes with
my bug reports, but I can't really do here).

Besides
\setupfootnotes[]
and
\setupnote[footnote][]
there are:
\setupenumerations[footnote][]
and
\setupfootnotedefinition[]
and maybe more.

I have no idea how they are related or even how to find out the difference.

It's not a detailed documentation of \setupfootnotes but at least you get
an idea of the possible option-keywords.

Cheers, Peter

Yes, the actual definition is:

  \def\setupfootnotes {\setupnote [\v!footnote]}

which reminds me: at some point we should add wiki redirects or
stub pages for

 Reference/en/startitemize = Reference/en/startenumeration

etc.

Best wishes,

  I wonder how you got that feeling if you never made contact with
them...

(I also usually try to provide fixes with
 my bug reports, but I can't really do here).

  Because you can't use the AFDKO?  You can still make suggestions if
you have some.  For that matter, I've never used the AFDKO either, and
that didn't prevent me to from discussing issues with Jacko.

Thanks a lot.

So I guess there is a list of all those synonyms available?

Not readily, they follow from \define.. commands in the source
(which is why such redirects would be helpful)

I hit a similar problem on a ppc mac. So it's probably not an intel-

The .firstsetup script crashes. It worked fine through at least March  
23, for what it's worth.


Here's a transcript

I have a crash log too, if that would help.

Does that contain a stack backtrace? Looking at a backtrace is about
the only thing I can do about this :(
