Re: [NTG-context] Macro to write the euro symbol

[Otared Kavian]

Hi Fabrice,

I don't know about the \symbol[EUR], but you can use directly the € symbol as 
in:

\unexpanded\def\euros#1{#1\,€}
\starttext

\euros{100}
  
\stoptext 

Best regards: OK

Re: [NTG-context] Macro to write the euro symbol

[Fabrice Couvreur]

Hello Otared,
Thank you for your answer even though I knew we could do like that. In fact
I wanted to understand why a macro that works very well for several years
no works.

We don't load these symbol sets by default. Soon the tex gyre fonts will 
contain many more symbols which means that we will also get away from 
some currently traditional symbols taken from math fonts.

[NTG-context] how to change the colour of the footnote marker

[Robert Zydenbos]

Today I wanted to print an entire document not in standard black, but in 
blue. I added (Mk II) –


\setupcolors [state=start]
\define\kleur{blue} % so I can change the colour uniformly everywhere 
through this variable

\startcolor [\kleur]
\setupnote[footnote][before={\color[\kleur]}]
\setupfooter [color=\kleur]

– and everything becomes blue, but NOT the footnote number before the 
footnote itself at the bottom of the page (the marker in the main text 
is coloured the way I want).


Can anyone tell me how to change the colour of the footnote number in 
the note?


Robert

I have to ask this, beause MetaPost is all Greek to me.

i have no clue what you mean but this will change the direction


Many thanks for your reply, Hans.

I attach an image of what I mean.

I want a full circle in two halves with the same duplicated sentence.
The first one written clockwise and the second one written
counterclockwise (as in the commented path above).

I hope it is clearer now.


path p ; p := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm ;
path q ; q := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm rotated 180 ;

path q ; q := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm rotated 180 ;

\followtokens{~this way~}
\followtokens{\reversedtext{~this way~}}

we will have this in metafun:

followtext("this way",p) ;

so that one can do it all in mp ... a nice gimmick for the ctx meeting

[NTG-context] Build for Alpine Linux

[Brian Hunt]

Hello everyone,

Per this question on tex.StackOverflow, I am having trouble getting ConTeXt
(LuaTeX specifically) to run on Alpine Linux:

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/425463

Specifically, the build from ConTeXt standalone has a LuaTeX that seems not
to run against the musl libc6 library.  Here are symptoms:

/context/bin # ldd luatex
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7fd05109c000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7fd05109c000)
libm.so.6 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7fd05109c000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x7fd05109c000)
Error loading shared library ld-linux-x86-64.so.2:
No such file or directory (needed by luatex)
Error relocating luatex: __rawmemchr: symbol not found
Error relocating luatex: __isnan: symbol not found


Has anyone run ConTeXt on Alpine?

Many thanks.

Re: [NTG-context] how to change the colour of the footnote marker

[Tomas Hala]

Hi Robert,

I don't understand if you need solution for MkII, or
if you tried something from MkII. 

For MkIV you can use this:

\def\mycmd#1{\startcolor[\kleur]#1\stopcolor}
\setupnotation[footnote][numbercommand=\mycmd]

(But I don't know whether it will work witk MkII.)

The best,

Tomáš

Many thanks for the reply, Hans.

I don’t know what I’m missing here, but I cannot get your code working.
Here you have the full sample:

  \useMPlibrary[txt]

  \starttext
  \startuseMPgraphic{followtokens}
 path p ; p := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm ;
 path q ; q := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm rotated 180 ;

 path q ; q := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm rotated 180 ;
  \stopuseMPgraphic

  \followtokens{~this way~}
  \followtokens{\reversedtext{~this way~}}
  \stoptext

\reversedtext is undefined (I’m using beta from 2018.04.04 00:51).

But even commenting that second command, \followtokens seems to require
that path is named RotPath to be used the text. I get the standard line.

What am I doing wrong here?

This will be incredibly handy.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

We have a "nearly working" one. At least all the binaries should be
there, see for example:
http://distribution.contextgarden.net/setup/linuxmusl-64/

There are two to three remaining problems:

1.) I disabled automatic musl recognition (short after enabling it)
after this bug report:
https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2018/091094.html
I need to finish "parsing"
https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2018/091123.html
and a few other posts in that thread and maybe make some additional
testing. There was some "oh no, it has to be the other way around"
discussion where I no longer followed and I need some more time to

2.) Most likely a patch in mtxrun is still needed (but I admit that I
didn't check) for proper platform recognition. The fact that we are
struggling in shell doesn't really help doing this part either :)

3.) Ideally we need to set up some automated LuaTeX builds to be able
to get the latest LuaTeX binaries in the future.

> Has anyone run ConTeXt on Alpine?

At the moment it should work if you install TeX Live 2018 pretest with
the ConTeXt scheme or if you fiddle a bit with the installation (you
need to hardcode the platform name in first-setup.sh and then still
some minor things might still go wrong, not sure). But in fact very
little is required to fix the remaining issues.

Can you please remind us to pick this up again in a couple of days?

In the meantime, if you are willing to do some more extensive testing
of patches (see full thread linked above) on both musl & non-musl
linuxes, in various shells etc., as well as perhaps come up with a
patch for mtxrun, that might help.

  I was wondering if anyone had paid attention to that :-)  I realise
the explanation is a bit long, but there were many details and I thought
it was interesting to document the situation.  In summary:

  1. The flow of the current test is corect, making the GNU libc the default
  2. The string ^musl should be escaped, for example with single quotes
  3. grep -q has a confusing behaviour and should be replaced by grep >/dev/null
  4. (Not in the long explanation) grep -E is recommended when using regexps

That is to say:

if command -v ldd >/dev/null && ldd --version 2>&1 | grep -E '^musl' 
>/dev/null
then
libc=musl
else
libc=glic
end

  Best,

Arthur

Many thanks for the reply, Hans.

I don’t know what I’m missing here, but I cannot get your code working.
Here you have the full sample:

   \useMPlibrary[txt]

   \starttext
   \startuseMPgraphic{followtokens}
  path p ; p := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm ;
  path q ; q := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm rotated 180 ;

  path q ; q := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm rotated 180 ;
   \stopuseMPgraphic

   \followtokens{~this way~}
   \followtokens{\reversedtext{~this way~}}
   \stoptext

\reversedtext is undefined (I’m using beta from 2018.04.04 00:51).


of course it it ... it's basically the lua snippet i sent a few mails ago


But even commenting that second command, \followtokens seems to require
that path is named RotPath to be used the text. I get the standard line.


sure, that's how it works (at least with that module ... that trickery 
dates from mkii)



What am I doing wrong here?


probably using a mechanism in away that is a bit ovet the top

(so you can wait till the embedded variant shows up)


we will have this in metafun:

  followtext("this way",p) ;

so that one can do it all in mp ... a nice gimmick for the ctx meeting


This will be incredibly handy.


i wonder, not many users run into this feature (kind of coincidence that 
we have two reports this month) .. it's mostly that i was curious if it 
could be integrated that i looked into it



Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

This only blows up on Zsh.  I will contact the "config.guess" maintainer (from
where I stole that snippet).

  The unescaped caret is only a problem on zsh with EXTENDED_GLOB
activated, but the effect of grep -q is problematic, and not using -E
with a regexp is strange, for code that’s supposed to be highly
portable.

Mk II does not have \setupnotation[footnote] yet, and when I

However, Wolfgang gave the solution! I do not know why that is the 
solution :-), but it works.

Neither did the Wiki help me.


Is there some hidden documentation I do not know about?

You can look them up in the command reference which exists since a very 
long time (the current version is MkIV/LuaTeX only):

1. \setupnotation is the new command name for \setupnotedefinition

2. Which language do you use in your document?

Similar to TeX live I have set up an automated Travis CI build, which can deploy
binaries to GitHub releases.
https://github.com/hmenke/luatex/blob/master/.travis.yml

However, I just forked Adam's mirror and I am not planning to keep mine updated.
It would be nice to have some sort of “official” LuaTeX mirror on GitHub for
that.  Nevertheless, it might be worthwhile to check the '.travis.yml' I posted
above into the LuaTeX SVN.
