[NTG-context] Number formatting in \unit

2011-12-11 Thread Robin.Kirkham
All,

I have put together some suggestions to extend the number formatting
capability in \unit, particularly for scientific and engineering purposes,
including basic support for tolerances and uncertainties.

It is a bit long, so source is attached and a PDF is at

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36891398/units6.pdf

Of course, this is just my opinion, so I welcome any feedback from the list.

Best,

Robin

I like your suggestions. Especially the current handling of `e-23` etc.
is not intuitive but rather confusing and does not meet the standard.

I do not know if there is already a solution for automatically
shortening the number of digits in the output, but that would be nice, too.

I just wanted to bring this topic up again since it is still
reproducible with ConTeXt MKIV 2011.11.25 21:29.

Yes, it does.

Using XITS it does also work although in display math mode(?) ∫ and
$\intop$ are not scaled.

I use the following example.

\setupbodyfont[xits]

\setupinteraction[state=start]

But $\int$ by \type{\int} and $∫$ by UTF-8 character look differently. 
As Mojca pointed out \type{\intop} is also not type set correctly: $\intop$. 
This suggests that it is a problem with the Latin Modern font. \type{\intop} 
was added in \from[context2008].

Is there a chance to fix `\intop` in Latin Modern (and XITS).

Would it be a good idea to map ∫ to $\int$ instead of `\intop`? Do
people use `\intop` a lot?

apart from this IMHO very useful change (mapping  to \int), maybe we should
create a unicode-math module which replaces some commands with symbols. i
find myself always using this for chemical and mathematical documents:

\catcode`→=\active

\catcode`√=\active
\def√{\sqrt}

Do you mean symbols by commands?

Sorry for being a noob. I thought for the first three that is somehow
done already. If not, such a mechanism would indeed be useful.

The message were delivered to the subscribers. You can also check that

Have a look at char-def.lua. All the symbol mappings are defined there. 
Please feel free to complete the table (it is a boring and time consuming 
process, and I have only managed to cover about half of the table).


Regarding your mappings, IIRC -> etc are mapped to \rightarrow etc, (not 
\xrightarrow). We can talk about including style variants for the 
mappings.

Re: [NTG-context] ∫ and $\intop$ is not displayed correctly compared to $\int$.

2011-12-11 Thread Philipp A.
wow, there is really much magic going on in context. one reason why i love
it.

i once wrote a script that showed some nice little gui for a similar file
(i.e. xkb/symbols/??) that displayed the characters on a grid similar to
the keyboard layout and allowed displaying of the different layers. i used
it to customize the standard ubuntu keyboard layout to have some much-used
symbols, but haven’t really got around to try switching to another layout
than quertz (as it would tie me even stronger to my own pc and would take
significant time to master)

maybe it would be nice to have a similar program that displays the mappings
in the char-def.lua since i can’t search for the symbols directly, have no
overview and editing would involve looking up the codes or names in a char
map, finding it in the file, and so on.

xrightarrow and friends are nice, because they adjust their length to the
over-and underscripts and work without parameters, too. so $A → B →{woo} C$
would work flawlessly and look nice both in code and the document.

[NTG-context] wider right margin when it shouldn't be

2011-12-11 Thread Pablo Rodríguez
Hi there,

compiling this document:

\setuppapersize[A4]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=singlesided,location=middle]
\starttext
\showsetups
\dorecurse{4}{\input dawkins \par \input knuth \par}
\stoptext

I should get the exact same length for left and right margin (defining
margin as the total distance from the page edge to the text body edge
[sorry, it isn't as accurate as it should, but I would like to avoid
misunderstandings]). Setups show also that margin width and distance are
equal for both sides.

What I see on my laptop (and what I have seen on the printed version) is
that the right margin is wider than the left one. Is there something
wrong or which is the measure I'm missing?

Thanks for your help,

The margins are unrelated to the position of the left border of the text block.

ConTeXt use the value from “backspace” for the inner (left) space and the 
“cutspace”
value (normaly calculated by ConTeXt when you set a value for “backspace” and 
“width”)
for the space on the outer (right) side.

These are the three values for the horizontal dimensions:

| backspace | width | cutspace |

Why MkII? MkIV is much better for this.

Anyway, the old approaches are obsolete, since LM now has the glyphs for
02BE (hamzah) and 02BF (alif). OTOH, they may be needed for other fonts.
Let's start with something REALLY obsolete:

\define[4]\AYN   {\definecharacter Ayn

  \SHIFT{#3} c\SHIFT{#4}}{}}}
\define[4]\HAMZAH{\definecharacter Hamzah
  {\leavevmode\kern#1em\raise#2ex\hbox{\CUPD{#3}{#4}}{}}}

\AYN{0}{0.9}{4}{-4} %
\HAMZAH{0.07}{0.9}{7}{-5}

\def\'{\Hamzah}
\def\`{\Ayn}
\endinput

% mkii-trans.tex
\starttext
\def\ISHA{\`i\v sha\'}
For Muslims, \ISHA{} is the last prayer of the day.

For Muslims, {\em \ISHA{}} is the last prayer of the day.

For Muslims, {\it \ISHA{}}  is the last prayer of the day.
\stoptext
===

Brr... Or you have to have to define an encoding that includes the 02BE
02BF chars. I wrote an article on that, and I NEVER want to go back to
that again, ever :-)

Now we can do better, at least in LM. In MkIV, we simply:


\starttext
For Muslims, ʿišaʾ is the last prayer of the day.

For Muslims, {\em ʿišaʾ} is the last prayer of the day.

For Muslims, {\it ʿišaʾ}  is the last prayer of the day.
\stoptext

The italics/slants look better, no need to fight with italic correction
etc. I use a transliteration keyboard on Windows that I can send you if  
you like.


Anyway: It's time to switch to MkIV, my man :D

[NTG-context] MetaFun: MetaPost example works with `mpost` but not embedded in ConTeXt: `! Redundant equation.`

Dear ConTeXt folks,


looking for graphics example and therefore searching the list I found
the answer from David Arnold in the ntg-context list thread »OT: looking
for metapost/fun examples« [1].

It is for plain MetaPost and works fine with `mpost` after making sure
to remove the line breaks inserted by the mail program.

I then copied it into `\{start,stop}useMPgraphic`, removed the `end ;`
and `{begin,end}fig` and replaced `{e,b}tex` by `textext()` but still
get the following error.

! terminal: ! Redundant equation.

[NTG-context] MnSymbol (math) support in ConTeXt

2011-12-11 Thread Peter Park Nelson
Hello,

I have been developing a new layout environment using Adobe Minion Pro for
the main body font. My document will include a significant number of math
formulas. I found a thread from earlier this year on the possibility of
adding support for the LaTeX MnSymbol font package in ConTeXt, and wondered
if anyone has gone farther with this idea.

The last recommendation on the thread (
http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/057426.html) was to merge the
Opentype MnSymbol font with Minion Pro using FontForge -- I tried that
using the steps outlined, but reached the same obstacle mentioned by the
last poster: the new (merged) font is not recognized by ConTeXt.

That approach probably violates the Adobe font license anyway...

In a 2009 thread on dev-context, Wolfgang Schuster mentioned an attempt to
create a virtual font and typescript for MnSymbol, but he encountered
problems with Greek characters. (
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20091122.164136.5757ec1f.en.html)

So, as I don't know how to proceed further, I would be interested in
hearing from anyone who has experimented with MnSymbol support, or in
finding out what specific steps would be involved in adding support.

Also, any recommendations of other math fonts suitable for use with Minion
Pro would be welcome. I am currently playing with XITS math, which is
Times-like but not too bad a fit.

Thanks,
PPN

[NTG-context] gnuplot: `! Undefined control sequence.` with format specifier %

2011-12-11 Thread Paul Menzel
Dear Mojca and ConTeXt folks,


I compiled gnuplot 4.5 from source (master) and got everything running.
Mojca, thank you so much!

Trying the example from the gnuplot page in the Wiki [1]

\usemodule[gnuplot]

\setupGNUPLOT[terminal=mp,option=color]

% general settings for the whole document
\startGNUPLOTinclusions

   # you may use TeX commands to format the titles and axes
   set title '\bf Trigonometry'
   set xlabel '$x$'
   set ylabel '$y$'
   set format y '\%.1f'
\stopGNUPLOTinclusions

\startGNUPLOTscript[tan]
   plot tan(x) t '$\tan(x)$'
\stopGNUPLOTscript

\startGNUPLOTscript[sin]
   plot 4*sin(x)+x t '$4\sin(x)+x$', x t '$x$' lt 3
\stopGNUPLOTscript

\useGNUPLOTgraphic[tan]
\useGNUPLOTgraphic[sin][width=10cm]

even with the comments removed as above I get the following though.

[1.1] [1.1] [1.1]
! Undefined control sequence.

I hope that is not related to the used ConTeXt version.

I didn't  check you  code (try to  make a  minimal example
next time), but the problem seems to be the combination of
equations and labels. When labels are present, the file is
processed twice and the equations  are also read twice (in
MkIV). It hasn't been fixed  for ages, that probably means
it will stay.

One  workaround  is  to   substitute  the  equations  with
assignments or to “save” the values beforehand.

This should have been without the backslash.

In beginning the text was processed with TeX, not it is taken
literally (% doesn't start the comment any more), so maybe it's a
leftover from the very early days. I will check the wiki.

> Actually I hope that it is since then upgrading would fix my issue. ;-)

... however I still have some problems. For some reason ConTeXt only
generates dvi files from metapost code which has never been the case
before. I need to figure out what is going on.

But one question. Why do you say that you compile the latest source of
gnuplot (which finally has context terminal built in, after 5 or 6
years), and yet you use the "mp" terminal instead of the default
"context" (or at least "tikz")? The mp terminal has been there
forever, and hardly ever improved. It also doesn't integrate too well
(if you change the typeface, that won't be reflected in you plots).

Yes, I thought about that, of course, but did not put it forward because to do 
it properly the correct numeric rounding/significant figures rules should be 
applied, and that I guess means the Lua code needs to interpret the number, 
rather than just treat it as a sequence of digits.

However if the Lua code did interpret the number into an internal format it 
would enable other things like normalisation to scientific or engineering form, 
etc. However the internal format would have to support arbitrarily long numbers 
and exponents ... Lua's built-in internal number format (a double precision 
float, I think) would not do, so there would be a bit of coding involved.

Wow! I have never seen this one (metapost unable to write the log file :) :) :)

It seems that there are some problems with mptopdf converter.

But in any way - can you please try to remove
\setupGNUPLOT[terminal=...] command?

I just realized that I forgot to update a whole lot of information on
that wiki page (in particular there is no single mention that the
terminal has been included into official CVS). I also assume that the
windows builds from Tatsuro should contain the terminal, but I have
never really tested them.

Thank you for the follow up. I just blindly copied the example from the
Wiki and did not pay any attention. In my thesis, I of course use the
ConTeXt terminal.


Thanks,

Paul


PS: Do you have a BibTeX entry for your gnuplot module?

What is the thesis going to be about? (I just noticed that mptopdf
complains about missing bibtex files. :)

> PS: Do you have a BibTeX entry for your gnuplot module?

Do you suggest me to publish an article about the terminal in arXiv,
to get at least some citations by the time when I need to submit my
thesis? :P

But no, I don't have it. I could try to create one though, but I'm not
even sure what the webpage should be. Many scientific programs just
ask to cite their first article in some scientific journal if one uses
the software, but I neither have an article nor homepage apart from
that (still outdated) wiki page.

There is some additional documentation on
https://github.com/mojca/context-gnuplot/tree/master/texmf/doc/context/third/gnuplot
(possibly also in minimals, but I'm not sure when I last synced the
version), but even that is outdated now since they required from me to
strip down terminal options parsing code.

The topic is how long integrated random walks stay positiv. Not being
able to prove that formally for double-integrated(?) random walk, I am
doing some simulations.

It seems to work for me.

That is an idea. ;-)

I thought asking does not hurt. ;-) So I guess I will just reference
ConTeXt and gnuplot then.


Thanks,

Paul
