[NTG-context] standardmakeup and pages
Hi again, in my books I often use \startstandardmakeup for the initial pages. A typical use case is a bastard title (half-title) on the first page and the copyright information (imprint) on the second, like in this MWE: \setuppagenumbering[ alternative=doublesided, ] \starttext \startstandardmakeup[align=center] bastard title \stopstandardmakeup \startstandardmakeup[page=left] \vfill imprint \stopstandardmakeup \stoptext With a doublesided layout, the second (left) page is preceded by two empty pages. How can I avoid that?

I have XQuartz, of course, but not the outdated Apple version or any other in /usr/X11/lib, but the MacPorts version in /opt/local/lib (and a few within some Apps). Adobe Acrobat Reader DC doesn’t use X11 and isn’t callable as acroread, but only as /Applications/Adobe\ Acrobat\ Reader\ DC.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeReader *if* you installed it in /Applications.

Re: [NTG-context] coloring the logfile
Hi,
FWIW: ConTeXt can already do colours on the terminal:
context —ansi myfile.tex
(but that currently results in an empty log, I think because there is no
separation)
Since the engine internals know and expose the difference between terminal
and log file already, it is quite possible to split the lua messaging code
into separate 'log' and 'term’ cases, if desired. There is no need to patch
the engine for that, just some extra lua code that Hans has to be willing to
write/include.
However, if support for redirect of stdout is needed (because in that case
the ’term’ in internal TeX speak is not really a terminal), then isatty()
needs to be exposed to Lua in one way or another.
If you want color in the actual log, then someone has to rewrite the log
reporting lua code to generate RTF or HTML. Should technically be doable
as well...
BTW, it is not safe to assume that all ttys actually support ansi colours
(remote terminals quite often do not), so a command-line switch would still
be needed.
Best wishes,
Taco
