[NTG-context] Hyphenation documentation
Hello all, I've just pulled together some questions of mine and their answers, and written them up into a hyphenation Q&A. http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Hyphenation http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/definebreakpoint Unfortunately, there are still some holes in the documentation I wrote. Questions I still have, and which I now pose to the list: 1. how do I protect a single instance of a word against hyphenation? Does ConTeXt, like LaTeX, use \hbox{myfragileword}, or something different? 2. In the command \definebreakpoint, what do these keys do? I can't get them to do anything (MWE below) ** left ** middle ** right 3. Is there perhaps a bug in breakpoints of type 2 and 3. (MWE below.) The key 'type' seems to control where hyphens appear. If 1 is a hyphenation character of type 1, etc, this is the observed behaviour (`/` is the linebreak): ...1...1 / ... ...2... / 2-... % I would expect: ...2... / -2... ...3...-3 / ... % I would expect: ...3...3- / ... ...4...4 / 4... ../ ... % breakpoint of type 5 just disappears If this behaviour is not a bug: is there a way to set a breakpoint X that produces ...X...X- / ...?

It seemed to me to be a strange use of TEXpage, but I was just following your own suggestion of Fri, 01 Oct 2010 09:13:39, see, http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg49606.html so nonsense indeed! :) > It’s hard to tell why you need this without a example but you can try > to force the table width with \bTABLE[textwidth=\textheight]. Indeed, this is the proper solution (and gives a better result). I had tried "width=\textheight" but this set the width of *all* columns to \textheight! Thanks again!

This is nonsense because \startTEXpage … \stopTEXpage is supposed to create a standalone page on your document where you can control the width/height of the page.

Re: [NTG-context] Kile for ConTeXt
Being lazy, I'll copy-paste an answer I wrote elsewhere: I use Kile. I found a syntax highlighter at KDE-files.org. I modified it based on the LaTeX highlighting file to (1) allow spell-checking only in text sections and (2) show section* headings in bold. I prefer to use the extensions, .mkii and .mkiv to prevent confusing the text editor. You may want to change that. You can find it at http://pastebin.com/Ac3Lt369. Save it as ~/.kde4/share/apps/katepart/syntax/context.xml. Auto-completion works on all words, including keywords, but it's not "smart": the suggestions are based on what you have written so far.

Hello, On October 1, 2010 Mojca asked about inserting a rotated page content (landscape) in an otherwise portrait document, keeping the headers and footers upright. The suggested solution was essentially \rotate [rotation=90] {\startTEXpage [width=\textheight,height=\textwidth] ... \stopTEXpage} I would like to place a wide table rotated as above, keeping the page headers and footers upright. In other words, I would like to do something like \startplacetable [location=page,orientation=90,title=Table caption] ... \stopplacetable That is, rotate the table contents *and its caption*, but not the page header and footer.
