Re: [NTG-context] query re placing a float
Found the answer—
location={here,left,3*hang}
does what I want nicely.
Sorry for the noise.

[NTG-context] query re placing a float
I have a paragraph of text and I would like to place a float to the left so
that there a some lines above the float, some beside, and some below. Is
there a way to do this?
What I have so far breaks the paragraph in two: one before the float and
one beside it (with a few lines below). If I invoke the float before the
paragraph, there are no lines above the float.

nibh eget odio. Proin tincidunt, velit vel porta elementum, magna diam
molestie sapien, non aliquet massa pede eu diam. Aliquam iaculis. Fusce et
ipsum et nulla tristique facilisis. Donec eget sem sit amet ligula viverra
gravida.%

How exactly do you mean to combine "ffi" and "--shell-escape" to work
with latest ConTeXt/LuaTeX?
(I tried (rather amateurishly) to run "context --shell-escape
WinTest.mkiv" - but it didn't help.)
context doesn't use --shell-escape (control over executables happens via
the sandbox mechanism)
BTW:
WinCon.dll contains some functions to print COLORED text to the console
screen and enables some basic WinAPI functions (like capturing window
bitmap) to Lua;
I've been using especially colored printing in combination with ConTeXt
("warnings" in magenta, "errors" in red...).
local ansicolor = {
r = function(s)
return "[0;31m" .. s .."[0;1m"
end,
g = function(s)
return "[0;32m" .. s .."[0;1m"
end,
b = function(s)
return "[0;34m" .. s .."[0;1m"
end,
c = function(s)
return "[0;36m" .. s .."[0;1m"
end,
m = function(s)
return "[0;35m" .. s .."[0;1m"
end,
y = function(s)
return "[0;33m" .. s .."[0;1m"
end
}
local formatters = string.formatters
utilities.strings.formatters.add(formatters, "cr", [[cr(%s)]], { cr =
ansicolor.r })
utilities.strings.formatters.add(formatters, "cg", [[cg(%s)]], { cg =
ansicolor.g })
utilities.strings.formatters.add(formatters, "cb", [[cb(%s)]], { cb =
ansicolor.b })
utilities.strings.formatters.add(formatters, "cc", [[cc(%s)]], { cc =
ansicolor.c })
utilities.strings.formatters.add(formatters, "cm", [[cm(%s)]], { cm =
ansicolor.m })
utilities.strings.formatters.add(formatters, "cy", [[cy(%s)]], { cy =
ansicolor.y })
print(ansicolor.r("red"))
print(ansicolor.g("green"))
print(ansicolor.b("blue"))
print(ansicolor.c("cyan"))
print(ansicolor.m("magenta"))
print(ansicolor.y("yellow"))
logs.writer(formatters["this is in %!cr! or %!cg! or %!cb! or
%s"]("red","green","blue","oeps"))
logs.report("whatever","this is in %!cr! or %!cg! or %!cb! or
%s","red","green","blue","oeps")
(you can also use mtxrun --ansi )
Any way to re-enable user DLL loading into ConTeXt, even in the future,
would be appreciated...
Best regards,
Lukas

Reason:
I could not build usable binaries for the new sources by
linking dynamically lua-5.2.4 or luajit.
Thus I changed to link lua-5.2.4 etc. statically.

[NTG-context] Problem loading a DLL with the latest Ctx beta
How exactly do you mean to combine "ffi" and
"--shell-escape" to work with latest ConTeXt/LuaTeX?
In usual luatex, ffi needs --shell-escape, since ffi
is dangerous from the point of view of the security.
As you know, ConTeXt allows --shell-escape, so the
following works with context test.tex.
%
% context test.tex
%
\starttext
\placeformula
\startformula
j_1(2.387) =
\startluacode
local ffi = require("ffi")
ffi.cdef[[
double _j1(double x);
]]
local mscrt = ffi.load("msvcrt")
tex.print(mscrt._j1(2.387))
\stopluacode
\stopformula
\stoptext
In the above example, a function _j1(x) in msvcrt.dll
is evaluated. The msvcrt.dll must be loaded as above,
because standard C library is linked statically.
The following DLLs can be used without loading,
because luatex knows them:
SHLWAPI.dll
WSOCK32.dll
USER32.dll
ADVAPI32.dll
SHELL32.dll
KERNEL32.dll
WS2_32.dll
GDI32.dll
Note that you may not be able to use "DLL Lua Modules"
in this way. I don't know details. Try various cases.
Best,
Akira

[NTG-context] side caption top aligned on grid -- not implemented?
At http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/362215/6819 I asked: How can I place the top
line of the caption (location={left, high}) on the grid and have it align with
the figure at same height.
I hoped this to be solvable by some simple instructions that I just haven’t
been able to figure out. But Henri Menke suggested in a comment that the
mechanism might not be implemented.
Is this really the case?
And if so: is there any way to achieve the alignment anyway?
I’d greatly appreciate any help as this is an important requirement for my
present project!
Best regards,
Florian.
