Re: [NTG-context] french quotation marks
Here is what the french Wikipedia page says: Méthode avec doubles guillemets-apostrophes : « L’ouvreuse m’a dit : “Donnez-moi votre ticket.” Je le lui ai donné. » Recommandée en français canadien[19],[20] et utilisée par de nombreuses publications françaises tel que le journal Le Monde[21]. Méthode avec doubles guillemets répétés : « L’ouvreuse m’a dit : « Donnez-moi votre ticket. » Je le lui ai donné. » Recommandée par l'Imprimerie nationale et aussi sur Wikipédia en français, conformément à ses conventions typographiques. Noter que l’Imprimerie nationale recommande l’omission de l’un des guillemets fermants en cas de cumul de guillemets quand une citation se termine sur une citation incluse[22]. Méthode avec simples guillemets : « L’ouvreuse m’a dit : ‹ Donnez-moi votre ticket. › Je le lui ai donné. » Recommandée en typographie suisse, avec des espaces fines insécables[23].

The least-squares fit (to a polynomial) is a deterministic calculation, not an arbitrary non-linear search. As such, it is very robust. Certain (useful) functions, a Gaussian peak for example, can be suitably transformed to a polynomial function, so these are handled as well, robustly. Examples are given as comments in mp-grap.mpiv that you can follow. I can send you off-list an adapted version of the original John Hobby documentation, with extensions described. Note that the m-graph module is simply a re-write of the John Hobby graph macros, taking advantage of floating-point MetaPost (thus simplified). I have been working on a completely new luagraph module that does much in lua. It has, notably, arbitrary coordinate systems. This has been a moving target as I put more and more into lua and less and less in Metapost. I have also been playing chase with the development of luametatex (and have fallen behind).

You can set these strings in your source file, no need to have a private copy of mp-grap.mpiv Autoform := "@.0e" ; or, if you want different formats for the X and Y axes: string Autoform_X ; Autoform_X := "@.0e" ; % or whatever you want ... string Autoform_Y ; Autoform_Y := "@.0e" ; A few notes: Autoform_X and Autoform_Y are used if known, otherwise it falls back on the string Autoform.

Luigi, many thanks for your reply. I was totally wrong. LuaTeX in LMTX is working fine. It was my fault. I have just discovered that I wasn’t able to generate the format file, because texlive-luatex is a dependency in Fedora. "export PATH=~/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin" solves the clash of paths and it allows to generate the format file.

My real problem is that I have a double-sided book with new chapters starting
on a right hand page. If an extra left-hand page gets added then that extra
page is blank except for the header which continues from the previous chapter.
This makes the page look a bit odd and I'd rather the header was blank.
I used aftersection=\directsetup{...} for the same purpose.
In LMTX, \directsetup makes no sense any more, just use \setup{}.

I can fix this by ensuring each chapter emits a final page (to ensure the headers on the last text-bearing page of the chapter are shown) and then clearing the header temporarily using: \stopChapter\page\setupheader[state=empty] This works so I wondered if there was a way of adding it to \stopChapter ?

btw, you can do this:

inspect(pfr)
pfr.stretchorder = 0
pfr.stretch = 0
as well as use
tex.show(broken)
