[NTG-context] macro string in metapost
The goal is to make the following string in metapost:
string s; where s must become "\MPcolor{Blue}".
and ultimately execute this at the right moment with: scantokens s;
The following makes s = "MPcolor{Blue}":
s := "MPcolor" & char oct"134" & char oct"173" & "Blue" & char oct"134" &
char oct"175";
But I seem unable to add a \ in front of it without expanding the string by
TeX. Thus it does not work to put:
s := char oct"134" & "MPcolor" & char oct"134" & char oct"173" & "Blue" &
char oct"134" & char oct"175";
Placing a \noexpand in front does not help.
How to?

So, afaict, assuming standard catcodes you should be safe with
escaping »~|\{}$%#« (of which the bar was missing in the snippet
I posted).
Good luck,

The old \inmargin command is gone, Hans rewrote the whole code for \inmargin
etc.
You can change the alignment global with \setupmarginframed[align=outer] for

[NTG-context] ConvertToConteXt 0.2 - convert special ConTeXt-characters (PHP)
At first: I am ConTeXt-newby and know PHP very well.
@Peter Münster/Aditya Mahajan : I think \startasci and
\stopasci is not the solution, when you generate
ConTeXt-code with php full of ConTeXt-macro-calls:
because sometimes the special-characters are
ConTeXt-special-characters and sometimes they are purely the
wanted text.
@Philipp Gesang: I think Luatex could do the same job for me
as PHP - however I am familar with PHP.
@all: of course not every Character, i am converting, is a
ConTeXt-special-character. Though I don't know all important
characters I took all I could imagine. Shurly I converted
too much however it is no problem:
I have tested my function "ConvertToConteXt" with 400 Pages
full of text and lots of ConTeXt-special-characters and
ConTeXt-macro-calls and compiled a nice book with ConText.
Which character must not be converted?
I had a mistake in the function, below is the next version:

The data necessary for converting HTML entities is already in
Context, have a look at “char-ent.lua” if you are interested.
Based on this you could write the deentitizer (== your
“html_entity_decode” function?) + character handler in “pure”
Context (no PHP needed) as follows:
··· deent.cld ···
thirddata = thirddata or { }
thirddata.myfunctions = thirddata.myfunctions or { }
local myfunctions = thirddata.myfunctions
local entities = characters.entities
local utf8byte = unicode.utf8.byte
local lpegmatch= lpeg.match
local P, R, S, Cs = lpeg.P, lpeg.R, lpeg.S, lpeg.Cs
local fmt, stringupper = string.format, string.upper
do
local s_hex = [[{\char"%s}]]
local s_dec = [[{\char%s}]]
local replace_hex_entity = function (hexnum)
return fmt(s_hex, stringupper(hexnum))
end
local replace_dec_entity = function (decimal)
return fmt(s_dec, decimal)
end
local replace_named_entity = function (name)
return fmt(s_dec, utf8byte(entities[name]))
end
local replace_unsafe = function (char)
return fmt(s_dec, utf8byte(char))
end
--local backslash = P[[\]]
--local escaped= backslash / "" * 1
local semicolon = P";"
local ucase_letter = R"AZ"
local lcase_letter = R"az"
local decimal_digit = R"09"
local decimal_number = decimal_digit^1
local hex_digit = decimal_digit + R"AF" + R"af"
local hex_number = hex_digit^1
local entity_char= ucase_letter + lcase_letter + decimal_digit
local entity_chars = entity_char^1
local entity = (P"&#x" / "") * (hex_number / replace_hex_entity)

local unsafe = S[[{}\$~%]] / replace_unsafe
--local p_characters = Cs((escaped + unsafe + entity + 1)^0)
local p_characters = Cs((unsafe + entity + 1)^0)
myfunctions.convert_to_context = function (str)
return lpegmatch(p_characters, str)
end
end

Most of the chars you substituted have no special semantics in

Hello,
I am just programming a catalog which should be printed.
I have a lot of data, text and pictures in a MySQL-database and want to
generate a nice catalog with ConTeXt.
To get the data from MySQL to ConTeXt I use PHP as an Interface:
MySQL -> PHP -> ConTeXt
And lot's of ConTeXt-macros will make a nice layout :-)
To give something back to this ConTeXt-community, I will put some helpfull
PHP-functions into the wiki of contextgarden.net.
Today I wrote the function "ConvertToConteXt" which converts special
ConTeXt-characters. You can see it below.
Before I put it into contextgarden.net ...

2. You see three characters, where I don't know the code-number \char??? for

[NTG-context] ConvertToConteXt - convert special ConTeXt-characters (PHP)
Hello,
I am just programming a catalog which should be printed.
I have a lot of data, text and pictures in a MySQL-database
and want to generate a nice catalog with ConTeXt.
To get the data from MySQL to ConTeXt I use PHP as an Interface:
MySQL -> PHP -> ConTeXt
And lot's of ConTeXt-macros will make a nice layout :-)
To give something back to this ConTeXt-community, I will put
some helpfull PHP-functions into the wiki of contextgarden.net.
Today I wrote the function "ConvertToConteXt" which converts
special ConTeXt-characters. You can see it below.
Before I put it into contextgarden.net ...
1. ... please test it.
2. You see three characters, where I don't know the
code-number \char??? for ConTeXt. Do you know them?
3. Did I forget to convert a character?
Regards
Jannis

* Convert special ConTeXt-characters with php
* Works with PHP5
*
* Call it with the string you want to convert ...
* ConvertToConteXt ($xstring);
*
* ... and you get back the converted string
*
* e.g.:
* Input:
* $string = "My root-Directory: /home/hans";
* $string = ConvertToConteXt ( $string );
*
* Output/Return:
* $string = "My root\\char45Directory\\char58
\\char47home\\char47hans";
*
* When you write this into a file ...
* file_put_contents ( "example.tex", "My
root\\char45Directory\char58 \\char47home\\char47hans",
FILE_APPEND );
*
* ... You will find the following in example.tex:
* My root\char45Directory\char58
\char47home\char47hans
*
* An when you compile example.tex with ConTeXt
* context example.text
*
* You can read the following in the resulting

* My root-Directory: /home/hans

[NTG-context] adjusting accents under slant

I need to adjust the horizontal position of the dot under the slanted
char. I would assume the third parameter would control it but nothing
seems to work.
Of course LM does not look so bad but I'm using a different font so this
is just an illustration.
Best wishes

quick hack:
\placefigure[split,fixed,none]{}{...}
currently only the the float related splitter will check the available
space, so in your case you have a regular flush with skips between the
rows and a header/footer only

[NTG-context] color and textext
After some struggling with text colouring in metafun I finally encountered on
the wiki:
Another difference is the way text is handled in mkiv. In particular, color
(withcolor) is not applied to metapost text. For example,
draw thelabel(decimal i, (i, 0) scaled 1cm) withcolor red ;
currently does not work in mkiv. However,
label(textext("\color[red]"& decimal i), (i, 0) scaled 1cm);
does work. This second solution works both in mkiv and in mkii. (Note that
\color[red] can be abbreviated \red.)
My question: is currently in "currently does not work in mkiv" in fact
permanently or will this restriction soon be lifted? If the restriction is here
to stay, I will have to find a workaround for my label-typesetting code in
metapost.
Or perhaps someone can tell me how to make "textext" use a color existing in
the "metapost world". That would work as well.
Explaining my setup:
The colors are taken up in metapost with
def defineColors (expr outlineColor, …) … outlinecolor_ := outlineColor …
enddef;
which is called in ConTeXt as …(\MPcolor{aColor}…
But I do not know how to transform the \MPcolor{aColor} back into a form to be
used as for example
textext("…
