[NTG-context] Two questions related with bibliography
Dear all, I have a self-made bst file in the same folder with the main tex file. I cannot figure out how to enable it. I tried \setuppublications[alternative=mybst] and \bibstyle[mybst] Both do not work. How should I do? Another question is how to set the citations in main text to be subscript? BTW, will ConTeXt drop BibTeX one day?

[NTG-context] Font recognition with command context, but not with command texexec
Hi, this might be a very simple problem, but I tried to figure it out for some time now without success. Reading manuals, searching with Google, etc. did not help. So if it actually is very simple, I herewith apologize. I really tried to solve it without the mailing list. Here is the Problem: The command texexec ignores the bodyfont setup. When I process the following code \setupbodyfont[gentium] \starttext This little text is enough to demonstrate the problem. \stoptext with the command texexec /filename/, the default font is used. Only when i use the command context/filename/.tex, context uses the font gentium. The gentium font is a truetype font and stored on my system under /usr/share/fonts. I use Linux Mint Debian Edition 201204. My .bashrc file contains the following line: export OSFONTDIR=/usr/local/share/fonts;$HOME/.fonts;/usr/share/fonts I use the standalone version of context with pdftex. The command \contextversion returns 2012.07.27 16:41, i.e. the time I last updated it. Using the mkiv switch did not help. texexec mkiv /filename/ Any comments are welcome.

Re: [NTG-context] TeXlive 2012 and letter module
Am 28.07.2012 um 19:53 schrieb Martin 'golodhrim' Scholz scholz@googlemail.com: Hi followers of ConTeXt, does something in the lettermodule in the texlive version and the minimal version of ConTeXt has changed, as both no longer recognize the \useletterextension[addrentry,label] \useaddressfile[addrfile] lines and complain about an unknown command, if yes, what would be the way to fix this, or is this functionallity finally droped? I haven’t added this function to the new version because I don’t need it. When you really need it I can add it but context itself has a similar function with the \setvariables and \getvariable which takes only a few more lines than \addressentry does. Below you can see how the example from the KOMA-Script manuals looks with \setvariables (you’re free to use different keys) but it’s no problem to write a simple \addressentry wrapper around this and provide it with the letter module when you want to share your data with LaTeX. example source=scrguide.pdf \usemodule[letter] \setvariables [addressentry:frodo] [lastname={Beutlin}, firstname={Frodo}, address={Der Bühl\\ Beutelsend/Hobbingen im Auenland}, 1={Bilbo Beutlin}, 2={Rauchen von Pfeifenkraut}, 3={der Ringträger}, 4={Bilbos Erbe}] \setvariables [addressentry:sam] [lastname={Gamdschie}, firstname={Samweis}, address={Beutelhaldenweg 3\\Hobbingen im Auenland}, 1={Rosie Kattun}, 2={Knullen}, 3={des Ringträgers treuester Gefährte}] \setvariables [addressentry:tom] [lastname={Bombadil}, firstname={Tom}, address={Im Alten Wald}, 1={Goldbeere}, 2={trällern von Nonsensliedern}, 3={Meister von Wald, Wasser und Berg}] \startletter [toname={\getvariable{addressentry:tom}{firstname}~\getvariable{addressentry:tom}{lastname}}, toaddress={\getvariable{addressentry:tom}{address}}, opening={Lieber \getvariable{addressentry:tom}{firstname} \getvariable{addressentry:tom}{lastname},}, closing={„O Frühling und Sommerzeit und danach wieder Frühling!\\O Wind auf dem Wasserfall und Lachen des Laubes!“}] oder \getvariable{addressentry:tom}{3}, wie Dich Deine geliebte \getvariable{addressentry:tom}{1} nennt.
