Re: [NTG-context] Galleries with photos from ConTeXt meetings: any ideas?
Am 2011-10-26 um 23:11 schrieb Mojca Miklavec: you could use jAlbum (album-only app) Thank you. I have not dealt with gallery software for ages, so this is the first time that I hear about it. It’s nice, provides lots of templates and is generally very customizable (even if you often lose your settings with a new release, since the templates change), but single-user. see jalbum.net iPhoto and Picasa are somewhat limited with OS and the person uploading photos. Of course; single-user, too. Or you use an album module of some CMS. Or you install a standalone album webapp (then chose a PHP or Ruby or Python or whatever based one...) I mostly asked because I bet that there are many people who tested many solutions and know why one solution is worse than the other. I guess Menalto gallery would be a good choice, never used it myself, but when I worked with Zikula CMS, its Menalto integration was the most popular gallery module (I used a simpler one that was better integrated into the CMS, because I merely needed a media manager for article pictures). Comparing with Menalto’s list of features: Requirements that come to my mind:most popular - ability to make protected albums (probably a strict requirement) permissions ✓ - ability to easily download a bunch of photos (it is not a strict requirement, but I would like to let participants download photos in full resolution without having to right-click hundred times) plugin DownloadAlbum ✓ - nice user interface for end user (pretty important) main feature ;) ✓ - not too difficult to upload photos (less important since it only has to be done once) main feature, via Flash ✓ - ability to export in some way if we decide to change gallery software at some point (not strict requirement) no function, just files in a directory ✗ - ability to manage permissions (to let just a few people upload photos) several users ✓ - not too commercial/limiting licence (I don't care if it is commercial software as long as it doesn't require me to pay a lot of money if more than three people browse through album) GPL ✓ Greetlings from Lake Constance!

Re: [NTG-context] accessibility of PDF (inter word space
thanks for your answer Hans.
Now i found some examples. Bot for me it doesnt work. I tried the documents in
http://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/context/test/doc/context/tests/mkiv/tags/
but there are no spaces between words in reflow-mode.
I am using adobe reader 9 for Linux and

there are no interwordspaces. I know that there is no space-character in Tex.

OK, I'm slowly making progress processing xml in lua. One naive question now:
how can I have access to and manipulate the textwidth dimension? In other
words, given
0.4\textwidth
what would be the equivalent in lua code? I tried
0.4 * tex.dimen.textwidth
or
0.4 * tex.dimen[textwidth]
but couldn't make that work. Also tried grepping the tex/context/base/*.lua
files for width, but couldn't find anything immediately obvious.
With “tex.dimen[…]” you get the value in scaled points but util-dim.lua
provides some functions to convert the value in points, centimeter etc.
\starttext
\startluacode
context.blackrule{ width = number.topoints(tex.dimen[textwidth]/2) }
\stopluacode
\stoptext

I like the design by Hraban a lot, but the problem is that when a LaTeX user comes to the site and sees an advertisment for a garden, with a photo of garden and CTOETNT title, he has absolutely no idea what the advertisment is about. My first association would be some gardening tools. Even though it is visually nice, I would probably not click on it unless I was interested in flowers. The attachment by Hans is very nice, but doesn't tell anything, while the picture of a castle is really nice and does tell some story even to someone unfamiliar with ConTeXt: MathML, Metapost, XML, Lua, ...
