[NTG-context] xmlfilter in lua

2013-07-28 Thread Thomas A. Schmitz

Hi,

hope this is comprehensible without a full example: I want to do some 
operations on my xml, and that's easier to do in Lua. However, I cannot 
find how to filter my results and pass them on to a command. In TeX, I 
would do this:


\startxmlsetups xml:a
 \xmlfilter{#1}{/b/command(xml:command:b)}
\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups xml:command:b
 \xmlconcat{#1}{/}\par
\stopxmlsetups

How would I do the same thing in Lua? Here's what I tried:

function xml.functions.a(t)
 local b = lxml.filter(lxml.id(t), "/b")
 process(b)
end

function process(t)
 xml.xprint(t)
end

but that doesn't work yet, I get no results printed. So my question: 
what would be the right syntax in Lua? (And bonus points for: what is 
the equivalent of \xmlconcat ?)


All best

Thomas

Replying to myself to correct: should have been

function process(t)
  xml.cprint(t)
end

obviously...

[NTG-context] Using backslash in chapter title.

2013-07-28 Thread john Culleton
Using MKIV and MyriadProBold for my sanserif font I have the following 
chapter title:
"Can You Type \bye?"
which I type as
\chapter{Can You type \backslash bye?}

The slash appears but a bit low and much too thin. I have tried
various games including creating a special font just for this
character but nothing changes. the \backslash command seems
invulnerable to change. Is there a way in MKIV to express a backslash
in another way (bigger and bolder)?

My solution to the missing or miscalled gui fonts is to reestablish
Slackware Linux 14 on a new partition and copy pertinent stuff over. 
Everything is OK so far. I used texlive 2013 since it is simpler to
setup and use then stand alone context. 

My solution to the original problem was suggested in part by a reply
on comp.text.tex newsgroup. Basically I gave up on trying to cajole 
context/luatex to use the fonts I have in /usr/share/fonts/OTF.
Instead I copied the ones I need for this project into
texmf-local/fonts. And I didn't use any subdirectory structure.  

Having been burned once I did not use OSFONTDIR at all. Instead I used
these methods:
context --generate
mtxrun--script fonts --reload
mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=Minion*
and the same except for my sanserif choice Myriad

Now I am in business.

\backslash is a math mode command. For text backslash, use \textbackslash 
or \letterbackslash. You can also try


\chapter{Can you type \tex{bye}?}

Use \textbackslash.

[NTG-context] Questions about mathfence

2013-07-28 Thread Aditya Mahajan

Hi,

Some questions/remarks about math fences

1. When using

\definemathfence[colorbracket][bar][middle=0x7C,color=red, 
command=yes]

\starttext

\startformula
  \colorbracket{\frac {a}{b}\fence a = b}^n
\stopformula

\stoptext

The delimiter is of the wrong color (black instead of red), and the clause 
after \fence is red. I am doing something wrong or is it a bug.


2. For some types of expressions, for example, probability, the middle 
delimiter should have the space similar to mathrel, rather than mathord. 
For example, while typing I often use:


\Pr\left( X = \frac {a}{b} \,\middle|\, Y = \frac{c}{d} \right)

Would it be worthwhile to add these extra spaces by default (not sure what 
is the convention in physics/quantum mechanics for bra and ket notation) 
or as an option.


3. Finally, why are the default values of left, middle, and right = 0x2E. 
Isn't 0x7C a better default?


Thanks,
Aditya
