[NTG-context] Context meeting 8 in Bassenge-Poires

2014-06-30 Thread Willi Egger
Good evening!

The next Context meeting (nr 8) will be held from 8 september until 13 
september in Bassenge-Poires (Belgium).  This place is situated in a beautiful 
valley between Liège and Maastricht. We will reside in a castle like building 
and wil have all the premises to our disposition. In september we expect still 
nice weather and fine temperatures.  With other words it is the most suitable 
place to hold the Context-meeting! 

In addition to getting your questions answered, the meeting is the perfect 
place to discuss current and future developments. In that respect: don't 
hesitate to bring up topics! The sooner the better (so that they can be 
announced and prepared).

Please consider to join the community at this unique place. - If you register 
quickly you still can register as an early bird. If you are a first-time 
attendee you will get an extra discount! Please check-out the meeting’s website 
at http://meeting.contextgarden.net/.

We hope to see you in Bassenge and we are looking forward to cook together…

Kind regards

Will Egger

[NTG-context] Bibliography: only surname in small caps

2014-06-30 Thread Joshua Krämer
Dear list,

I would like to have in a bibliography only surnames in small
capitals, like this:

MÜLLER, B. and SCHNEIDER A.

(Müller and Schneider appear in small caps, but everything else
like and is still in the default typeface.)

At the moment, I'm using the old bibliography system.  I am a bit
overwhelmed by the new system, because I would have to setup everything
from the beginning, as I have setup my layouts with
\setuppublicationlayout.

Now my questions are:

Is it possible to achieve what I want (SC surnames) with the old and the
new system?

If I would do it with the old system, am I right that I would have to
redefine \normalauthor or define my own authorcommand?

How could it be done with the new system?  I've tried to understand the
file publ-imp-apa.mkvi, but there's only an author value, and I
don't understand how to access the name components (first name, last
name etc.).


Thanks and kind regards,
Joshua

Re: [NTG-context] win2k and context

2014-06-30 Thread Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini
 Just curious: is that the latest version that works according to your
 tests or did you actually try just this one?

The next version available in
https://foundry.supelec.fr/frs/?group_id=10
is 0.74.0 and didn't work.

I don't know if there are versions between?

Yes, in principle.

You would define your own command. Something like

\def\myinvertedauthor#1#2#3#4#5%
{{\sc #3}%
\bibdoif{#1}{\bibalternative{surnamesep}#4\unskip}%
\bibdoifelse{#2}{\bibalternative{vonsep}#2\unskip}{\unskip}%
\bibdoifelse{#5}{\bibalternative{juniorsep}#5\unskip}{\unskip}%
}


 How could it be done with the new system?  I've tried to understand the
 file publ-imp-apa.mkvi, but there's only an author value, and I
 don't understand how to access the name components (first name, last

The interface isn’t finished yet, so you’ll have to wait a bit. But this is a 
good occasion to remind Hans that formatting needs for bibliographies can vary 
widely, so we need as much configurability as possible.

There should be a pdf named mkiv-publications.pdf in your context directory.

Hi Joshua,
I suspect it can be done in the old system, albeit by some tricks that are 
maybe unworthy of ConTeXt.
I have not tried using small caps because I use a font that does't have them 
but I think it would be doable.

There a in fact two tricks. The first is to put everything in the booklet 
category and enter everything except author names, year of publication and city 
(or publisher) in the title. 
The second is to make a .bbl file and edit that, including ordering small caps 
where you want them, just as in a normal .tex-file. In your project you input 
the edited .bbl-file, not the .bib-file.

This way you can use all the nice  mechanisms of ConTeXt for citing, footnotes 
and bibliography without having to bother with the tweaking of codes.

I have done it this way for my wife's PhD thesis and it works perfectly.

Best regards,
Robert Blackstone

In the ConTeXt minimals distribution, the file resides in the
folder /tex/texmf-context/doc/context/manuals/allkind/.

If you use a Debian package of ConTeXt, look in the system-wide texmf
directory, which should be something like /usr/share/texmf/, and in the
system-wide documentation directory, which should be something
like /usr/share/doc/.

Thanks for your answer, Thomas.  This is how I've done it now:


\unprotect\def\myinvertedshortauthor#1#2#3#4#5%
  {\bibdoif{#2}{#2\bibalternative\c!vonsep}%
   {\smallcaps #3}%
   \bibdoif{#5}{\bibalternative\c!juniorsep#5}%

\protect

\setuppublicationlist [artauthor=\myinvertedshortauthor,
author=\myinvertedshortauthor, editor=\myinvertedshortauthor]


It works perfectly.

I'm looking forward to the new bibliography system, but on the other
hand, I'm glad I can stick with the old system for this project,
because everything else is already set up as needed.

Kind regards,
Joshua

Thanks for your answer, Robert.  But I'm reluctant to do such manual
hacks.  In this case, they would not make sense anyway, because my
database is too big (more than 200 entries), and I pull the entries from
Medline, I don't create them myself.  Minor tweaks are possible, but I
can't rearrange and manually format all the entries.

Anyway, it works now automatically (see my other mail), with a minimum
of work. That's why I love ConTeXt and automatic typesetting.  (-:
