Hi Riobard,
Since math is done differently in mkiv than in mkii, indeed \showmathcharacters
does not work in mkiv.
However one can get all the math characters in mkiv in a big list doing the
following:
begin showmath.tex
\doifmode{mkiv}{\usemodule[fnt-25]}
\starttext
\doifmodeelse{mkiv}{\showmathfontcharacters}{\showmathcharacters}
\stoptext
end showmath.tex
Then, if using mkiv, in the resulting PDF file you can see all characters used
in mathmode.
when i have time all these show commands will move to modules (maybe a
bit of a cleanup too) .. many of them are just for tracing when we work
on luatex

Re: [NTG-context] Ampersand in Metapost
- label(textext(\letterbackslash\letterampersand),origin); - label(textext(\letterbackslash\),origin); This is because the commands are interpreted with TeX before they are written to mpgraph.mp. The \letterampersand or \ generates the character alone: you need to preceed it with backslash, so that metapost finally knows what to do. So, should all the \letter... commands (basically anything generated from char-def.lua) be unexpandable? What are the disadvantages of unexpandable commands? I'm not an expert. Why is this not done by default if it works better? You can also try \noexpand\letterampersand Produces compile error.

What do you mean by »more reliable«? After having read your MyWay I would say
that textext is more reliable because it can do dynamic text.
in mkiv textext is implemented differently; because we use mplib,
processing time is less an issue anyway
I created a testfile to compare textext and \sometxt. The points to compare
were those you mentionend in your MyWay as advantages of \sometxt. The
testfile »t.tex« is attached. I processed it with

That is the same. Maybe my test file is not appropriate to test the speed. I'm

The second definition is a math expressions with fractions. It seems to work.
th emkii variant has some more limitations than the mkiv version
-Less characters to escape
Yes, that's the topic of this thread. I don't know, I didn't check. The only
check I performed was the ampersand and it needs the same workaround using
\letterbackslash as textext.
I know, your MyWay is old. Maybe some things are fixed now. But I don't see
many advantages for me using it.
don't expect mkii and mkiv to be 100% compatible in this area (mkii is
somewhat stretching things to the limit)

There are two versions of the same code in the attached files. The test.tex uses environment test-env and test2.tex does not. Then why test.tex compiles while test2.tex does not?

Ah, I see. I don't need it at the moment as I can use textext with the
code you provided.
Thanks for your explanation. I hope I'm not completely mistaken if I
conclude, that there are some advantages when using \sometxt in MkII,
but in MkIV both variants are basically the same.

I don't know exactly which transformations are considered as »string
manipulation«. I've read your MyWay on \sometxt. Brilliant piece of doc. But
I've three questions.
i) Is it about MkII, MkIV or both?
It's mostly about MkII. In MKIV it should work, but it doesn't make
such a huge difference since textext works as well as \sometxt in
MkII. textext in MkII can sometimes be very inefficient.
ii) Is it still up-to-date?
Apart from a recently reported bug I don't know of any changes in
MkII, but maybe I should write a few words about MkIV.
iii) Why should I better use \sometxt?
What do you mean by »more reliable«? After having read your MyWay I would say
that textext is more reliable because it can do dynamic text.
Dynamic text counts as feature for me, not as something that'
I created a testfile to compare textext and \sometxt. The points to compare
were those you mentionend in your MyWay as advantages of \sometxt. The
testfile »t.tex« is attached. I processed it with
ConTeXt ver: 2010.05.08
luatex, version beta-0.60.1-2010042821
As already mentioned by Hans, the only difference,
Here are my results:
-There is one obvious reason: speed
Average runtime:
textext variant: 56s
\sometxt variant: 57s
That is the same. Maybe my test file is not appropriate to test the speed. I'm
sure you have performed more advanced tests.
For gnuplot-generated graphics compile time has been reduced from 10
minutes to 20 seconds. But that's another story (many graphics, many
text labels inside each graphic; textext was not optimized).
-Document-wide definitions are seen
[...] definitions with arguments will fail to work.
The first line, a document-wide definition with arguments works in both
versions.
But that's only true with MkIV. In MKII it's another story.
-Problems with expansion
[...] as far as I remember math expressions (fractions perhaps) never
worked as they were supposed to
The second definition is a math expressions with fractions. It seems to work.
Many math expressions have later been made unexpandable and started
working, but it felt like a neverending story. Almost the same as the
example that you were asking for.
I know, your MyWay is old. Maybe some things are fixed now. But I don't see
many advantages for me using it.
If you are using MkIV and don't run into the same problem again, there
is hardly a difference.
In fact, I have a problem getting random colors working. Take the following
example (taken from my earlier thread).
% This line is needed to get »withcolor« to work?
Yes, in MkII. In MkIV Hans wanted to take a different approach.
\chardef\TeXtextcolormode\zerocount
% Produces empty rectangles
for i=0 downto -3:
ran;
label(\sometxt{\bold{Test}}, (7cm,-4cm))
rotatedaround ((7cm,-4cm),i*20)

endfor;
Hans replied.
All in all - true, the most difference is seen in MkII.

Don't know. I don't use it.
-Problems with expansion
[...] as far as I remember math expressions (fractions perhaps)
never worked as they were supposed to
The second definition is a math expressions with fractions. It
seems to work.
Many math expressions have later been made unexpandable and started
working, but it felt like a neverending story. Almost the same as the
example that you were asking for.
I think I can comprehend the problems you had with textext.
In fact, I have a problem getting random colors working. Take the
following example (taken from my earlier thread).
% This line is needed to get »withcolor« to work?
Yes, in MkII. In MkIV Hans wanted to take a different approach.
\chardef\TeXtextcolormode\zerocount
% Produces empty rectangles
for i=0 downto -3:
ran;
label(\sometxt{\bold{Test}}, (7cm,-4cm))
rotatedaround ((7cm,-4cm),i*20)
withcolor transparent(normal, .2, (r,g,b));
endfor;
Hans replied.
Yes. I will use textext for this job.
I know, your MyWay is old. Maybe some things are fixed now. But I
don't see many advantages for me using it.
If you are using MkIV and don't run into the same problem again, there
is hardly a difference.
I conclude by saying that \sometxt ist first choice if using MkII. In MkIV
first choice is textext.
Thanks for your reply (and your MyWay), it helped me get some insight into
proper use of text in metapost.
