Re: [NTG-context] All NUL files in the Context distribution

Hi,

I was looking into the SciTE setup when I found that
tex/texmf-context/context/data/scite/context/scite-context-internal.properties
only contained NUL bytes.

Deleting and reinstalling doesn't fix it.

I have now checked the other files there and these files seem to have
gotten corrupted at some point.  Does anyone have a working copy to
restore them?

tex/texmf-context/context/data/scite/context/scite-context-internal.properties
tex/texmf-context/context/data/scite/context/lexers/scite-context-lexer-web-snippets.lua
tex/texmf-context/doc/context/sources/general/manuals/start/en/ma-cb-en-commands.tex

Thanks,


Same for me:
tex/texmf-context/doc/context/sources/general/manuals/start/en/ma-cb-en-commands.tex
contains NUL characters.

Re: [NTG-context] Text editors

Every user has his or her own preferred test editor. Over 
years I have used Emacs for just about everything except 
the kitchen sink, but not, as it happens, for ConTeXt.


For what it's worth here is what I use:

(1) TeXworks. All one has to do is indicate the correct 
path to ConText in the setup for this program, depending 
on your OS and where you have installed it, e.g. 
home/yourname/bin/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin if you 
are using Linux and have installed it in \bin. Then choose 
ConTeXt (LuaTeX) as the processing tool.


(2) But to make things a lot easier, I also use Federico's 
text expander Espanso 
https://espanso.org 
. This just saves so much time, 
especially for so many \start...\stop sequences.  For 
example, in espanso I might have:


You can do the same inside TeXworks. There are completion 
files in the folder 
C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\TUG\TeXworks\completion.


It is not yet completed for Context, but it should not be 
difficult to do that.


But thanks Julian, this is an interesting information

I've been using myself the simple_Context package for 
SublimeText which I scavenged a while ago before it was 
made unavailable (I wanted to attach but it's too big for 
the list). But it's sort of a dead-end.


Open to anything from vim/neovim to emacs or more exotic. 
Maybe it would be nice to show the config. (And yes I've 
seen the Wiki page

Is it a fresh installation? Or should I from time to time

Thanks for the advices!

And now I’d like to know if ConTeXt is capable of 
typesetting this variant of Arabic. (Just out of 
curiosity, I can’t read any Arabic and don’t know any 
African language.)

Afaiks that script has been known fro a while:


I also thought I heard about it several years ago. The 
article makes it sound like news, that might be the 
perspective of the US scholars or a necessary means to get 
funded. But the oldest sources quoted in Wikipedia are 
from 1971 and 1982.


The arabic alphabet was also used from the XIth century to 
write swahili and some bantu languages around Tanzania and 
Kenya (Mozambic, Malawi, Uganda, east of Kongo, Sudan).


There are articles in Wikipedia.

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphabet_arabe_swahili
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swahili_language#Orthography

also: https://www.mustgo.com/worldlanguages/swahili/  see 
"writing"

https://omniglot.com/writing/swahili.htm


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajami_script
so when there are proper fonts, as:
https://software.sil.org/scheherazade/
https://software.sil.org/harmattan/


I don’t dare to ask about the Husayni fonts... ;)

it should be doable. The script is supported by unicode. 
I get the impression that the arabic scipt is mostly used 
getting the way the languages sounds on paper so vowels 
matter. There is mentioning of transliteration and so 
that might need some specific support. Nothing tex 
(context) can't do but only users and usage can prove that.


Thank you for your insights!
Of course it’s a matter of use(r)s.

All the best for a happy new year!

[NTG-context] Help for using fonts Nupuram

[Alain Delmotte via ntg-context]

Hi!

I am trying to run the example Hans published on the 1st of 
December with a new upload.

It is about using the variable font Nupuram.

I downloaded the font in a big .zip file.
It contains: two explaining files and  folder with  
sub-folder "Nupuram", which in turn contains 6 subsub-filders:

- otf with 32 otf font files
- otf-variable with 1 file "Nupuram-VF.otf"
- ttf with 32 ttf font files
- ttf-variable with 1 file "Nupuram-VF.ttf"
- ufo with 32 subfolders xxx.ufo
- webfonts with 33 xxx.woff2 files

After looking to contextgarden,I tried to put the "Nupuram" 
sub-folder or only the folders with .otf in different places 
of my context-lmtx folder, and using "mtxrun --script font 
--reload".

But the example of Hans didn't work.

Then I install the .ttf font files in Windows\fonts; it 
works, but 1) trying to install the Nupuram-VF.ttf, I have 
the message that Nupuram-Regular is already installed; and 
2) I get the font in the example, but no changes of width or 
colour.


So, now I deleted all the Nupuram everywhere.
How could I have it fully working under context-lmtx?

I have different places for fonts in my context-lmtx:
- tex\texmf\fonts  mainly empty except \data
- texmf-context\fonts  populated
- texmf-fonts  empty
- texmf-modules\fonts  populated

Thanks for you help.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,
Regards

For me it looks alright, in particular if you have longer 
text in the \item. The figures are aligned with the \item's.


One thing which changes is the space between de items: 
between 2 and 3. I have no answer for that.

Re: [NTG-context] regular online meet-up

Unfortunately at that time I am not free.

Have a very good meeting.

All the best, Alain

écrit :
You’re invited to join on Wednesday, October 12th, 15:00 
CEST (UTC+2)


at https://lecture.senfcall.de/hen-rbr-rku-oke
(same, but shorter: https://v34h.de/ctxmtg)

ConTeXt users of all levels are welcome!

Next meeting will be on November 9th.


(Same blurb as every time:)

[Howto]
* No special software installation required; most modern 
browsers should work (WebRTC required).

* Open the above URL, accept the privacy statement,
* enter your name,
* click "join" (or "start" if you’re the first),
* click "with microphone", allow your browser to access 
it, check the audio.
* Your microphone is muted if you join. Activate 
microphone and/or camera with the buttons at the bottom.
* Minimize the default presentation with the "screen" 
button, bottom right.


* If you’d like to share your screen or upload a file, you 
can make yourself the presenter: Click on your user name, 
change the setting, then you’ll see the "screen sharing" 
button beside the camera button; also there’s now "manage 
presentations" behind the "plus" button.
Beware there is only one presenter at a time, so don’t 
kill someone else’s presentation.


[Technical hints]
* Sound is usually better if you use a headset (less noise 
for everyone).


* Connection problems are mostly due to low bandwidth or 
high latency on your side, e.g. with mobile connections.
* If audio/video doesn’t work for you, you can still use 
the text chat.

* Screen sharing needs a lot of bandwidth.

* BigBlueButton documentation applies: 
https://bigbluebutton.org/teachers/tutorials/


[Netiquette]
* Please use a name that we recognize from here. Some feel 
uncomfortable with anonymous lurkers.

* Mute your microphone while you’re not talking.
* It’s nice to show your face at least when you join.
* If there are connection problems, stop camera sharing.
* The room is set to “everyone’s a moderator“, I trust you...

See you, Hraban

Hi Alain,

as Hraban points out, "mtxrun --generate" is your friend.

I can simply reproduce you error with:

   mtxrun --scripts cache --erase

So I get:

   $ context
   mtxrun | unknown script 'mtx-context.lua' or 'mtx-mtx-context.lua'

Everything works fine again after I run:

   mtxrun --generate.

Before the first run after installation, this command is mandatory to
build the database.

I hope it helps,

Pablo


Hi Pablo and Haram,

When I was running mtxrun --generate, there was an 
interference with TeX Live, so I uninstalled it, then it 
worked. I do not know if that time I did run mtxrun. But 
under TeXworks when I selected context as program it kept 
electing luametatex, and it didn't work; so I manually wrote 
"context" and it worked!!


Thanks for your help,

  Hi,

How long do we want/need to keep running the builders for 32-bit OpenBSD?

It's taking 2 or 3 times longer to build binaries than for the 64-bit
OS (not that this is super relevant since ppc builder is a whole order
of magnitude slower anyway: building TL there takes about 6 hours) and
I suspect that nobody is using those 32-bit binaries anyway.

My portable is a 32-bit on which I am running Lubuntu 18.04; but
  i didn't upgrade ConTeXt lmtx for long as, as I did understand,
  there is no more new binaries.
But I can do without ConTeXt on that computer.

You should be able to change the space above and
  below a float with the spacebefore and spaceafter keys to
  \setupfloat. I think the default value is big for each, but
  you can override that with null. Something like
  
  
  \setupfloat[figure][spacebefore=,spaceafter=]
  
  
  Hope that helps.

Re: [NTG-context] TeXworks on Linux

[Alain Delmotte via ntg-context]

  
  
Hi Willi!
Le 9/04/2022 à 21:52, Willi Egger via ntg-context a écrit :

  Good evening!

Currently I am trying to test different editors on a Linux-box. — Tonight I installed TeXworks. Now I wanted to change the editor to use ConTeXt LMTX. I added in the tab “typesetting" the path to the executables in the TeX tree. Then I added funder editing the processing tools following the Wiki as a programme mtxrun and as parameters —script context $fullname.

After restarting the application I get the error:

“unknown script ‘mtx-base.lua' or ‘mtx-mtx-base.lua’” 

My question is, is there a user out there who knows how to fix this?

Kind regards

Willi

I have an old computer under Linux 18.04
In
TeXworks/Edit/Preferences/Typesetting I have an entry for
ConTeXt lmtx:
path:
/usr/bin
  /usr/local/sbin
  /usr/local/bin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
/bin
/usr/games
/home/alain/context-lmtx/bin
  /home/alain/context-lmtx/tex/texmf-linux/bin
/usr/local/texlive/2020/bin/i386-linux
Most of the path is automatically
created when installing TeXworks. You should perhaps take care
that the paths for context-lmtx is "before the one for texlive,
if you have it.
Now for the definition for the
program:
name:   Context (which will appear in the drop-down menu
program:  context
parameters: --synctex    (which is not fonctionnal)
    $fullname
  
That'all!
I hope it  will help.

Re: [NTG-context] Spellchecking for ConTeXt user on a Windows platform

[Alain Delmotte via ntg-context]

  
  
Hi Amine!
Do you mean spellchecking the content
of your document (not the ConTeXt commands)?
This depends on your editor! 
I use TeXworks and there is spellchecking using the dictionaries
of LibreOffice. You should copy the .aff and .dicfiles from
"C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\share\extensions\..."
subdirectories to the "C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\TUG\TeXworks\dictionaries"
folder (created when installing TeXworks), (I think not in
subfolders for the different languages).
You can then ask for spellchecking when you type or not.
I hope this help,
Alain

  Dear All,


I'm currently using ConTeXt on a windows machine. I'd like
  to incorporate some sort of automated spell-checking in my
  workflow. I've seen that there are two options:

  
spell check the .tex source file
spell check the resulting pdf
  
  For the first option many resources online seem to
suggest using aspell. aspell is however not
maintained for windows and therefore hopelessly out of date.
Furthermore many resources online seem to suggest skipping
TeX and LaTeX control sequences does not always succeed. So
I can only imagine how poorly it deals with ConTeXt control
sequences.
  
  
  The second option as shown on this StackExchange post suggests
using \loadspellchecklist. However, on of the
arguments to this command includes a text file listing - and
brace yourself - all of the correctly spelled words.
I find this both an amusing and tragic proposition, since I
basically need to spellcheck based on every word in a
  given language.


  
What options are out there for someone who would like to do
  serious spellchecking using ConTeXt on Windows platform, using
  Powershell as my command line?


Regards,


Amine

Re: [NTG-context] Regular online meet-up

[Alain Delmotte via ntg-context]

  
  
Hi!
I'll try to join and I have a question
regarding inserting floats in outer margins in double sided
document. The outer margins are large and the inner small. I
want to insert my floats (mainly figures) in the outer margins
and have them at level where they are called. Furthermore,
sometimes the float is to large, so it should take part of the
text, with the text surrounding it.
But this is perhaps answered in
context garden, but I didn't find where.
And if there are more fundamental
questions, my can wait.
See you on Tuesday.
Regards,
Alain

You’re
  invited to join next Tuesday, February 8th, 15:00 CET (UTC+1)
  
  
  at https://lecture.senfcall.de/hen-rbr-rku-oke
  
  
  ConTeXt users of all levels are welcome!
  
  
  Hans offered to give a Q&A session again – please announce
  subjects you’d like to discuss ASAP, so that he can prepare.
  
  
  
  Regarding the date:
  
  Denis, who originally suggested Tuesday afternoon, can’t take part
  due to other obligations. I could also offer Wednesday or
  Thursday.
  
  We could also change the weekday every time, but that might be
  confusing. I would keep the European afternoon time, since that
  makes participation possible for people from America and Asia.
  
  What do you think?
  
  Vote here: https://nuudel.digitalcourage.de/tB1MHH4jx6M5uwPg
  
  
  
  (Same blurb as last time:)
  
  
  [Howto]
  
  * No special software installation required; most modern browsers
  should work (WebRTC required).
  
  * Open the above URL, accept the privacy statement,
  
  * enter your name,
  
  * click "join" (or "start" if you’re the first),
  
  * click "with microphone", allow your browser to access it, check
  the audio.
  
  * Your microphone is muted if you join. Activate microphone and/or
  camera with the buttons at the bottom.
  
  * Minimize the default presentation with the "screen" button,
  bottom right.
  
  
  * If you’d like to share your screen or upload a file, you can
  make yourself the presenter: Click on your user name, change the
  setting, then you’ll see the "screen sharing" button beside the
  camera button; also there’s now "manage presentations" behind the
  "plus" button. Beware there is only one presenter, so don’t kill
  someone else’s presentation.
  
  
  [Technical hints]
  
  * Sound is usually better if you use a headset (less noise for
  everyone).
  
  
  * Connection problems are mostly due to low bandwidth or high
  latency on your side, e.g. with mobile connections.
  
  * If audio/video doesn’t work for you, you can still use the text
  chat.
  
  * Screen sharing needs a lot of bandwidth.
  
  
  * You can also join with a regular telephone (audio only, of
  course), call +49-6151-86275-22 (German landline); then you must
  enter a PIN that changes every time – if you need it, ask me for
  it via email. Mute/unmute your microphone with "0".
  
  
  [Netiquette]
  
  * Please use a name that we recognize from here. Some feel
  uncomfortable with anonymous lurkers.
  
  * Mute your microphone while you’re not talking.
  
  * It’s nice to show your face at least when you join.
  
  * If there are connection problems, stop camera sharing.
  
  * The room is set to “everyone’s a moderator“, I trust you...
  
  
  See you, Hraban

I remember having contact with people in the braille association

  To prepare braille text you need to follow certain rules, it is
  not just using braille symbols. 

So it is better to ask braille specialist about the requirements
  for good braille text.

[NTG-context] To prepare the online meeting of Tuesday

[Alain Delmotte via ntg-context]

  
  
Hi,
I asked to discuss or have some
suggestions about installing and using Scite for ConTeXt.
If it is possible OK, but it is not
urgent.
To give some background:
I use Windows 10 and lmtx (in its own folder).
I installed Scite in c:\wscite and copied there the
scite\context folder; I added the folder to the PATH.
If I comment the line (import
context/scite-context-user) at the end of SciteGlobalproperties
I can load .lua, .tex, .py files and I get the colours
highlighting. 
  
But if I uncomment: first I have Scite
opening full screen, which is annoying, and the colour
highlighting for .lua, and .tex disappears, but I have the
context/scite.xxx.properties listed in Options!!!
And I still need to configure to be
able to compile and...
  
Thanks for the advices.
Regards,
Alain
PS When I install lmtx, I have two
messages (but which disappear very quickly) about missing ??
with lua and lmtx (path?, ...)
How to be able to read the log of the installation? Thanks

[NTG-context] Strange result with the new upload

[Alain Delmotte via ntg-context]

  
  
Hi,
If I take the last piece of code from
Hans' message 28/10/2021 11:24, and run it with the new upload I
get clean paragraphs with the red ans the blue colour, but for
the paragraphs with the green colour, the text in colour
("keyword") is overwritten by the normal text in black.
I don't remember that before.
Alain
Here is the code:
%I need to ponder this usage:


\definelocalboxes

  [linetextA]

  [command=\LeftTextA,

  location=lefttext,

  style=\bs,

  color=darkblue]


\protected\def\LeftTextA#1{\llap{#1}\quad}


\definelocalboxes

  [linetextB]

  [command=\LeftTextB,

  location=left,

  style=\bs,

  color=darkgreen]


\protected\def\LeftTextB{\llap{\unhbox\localboxcontentbox}\quad}


\starttext


\dorecurse{10}{some
  text #1 }
\leftparbox
  {\red \bf keyword}HERE\leftparbox{}
\dorecurse{10}{some
  text #1 }
\blank


{\dorecurse{10}{some

\leftparbox
  {\red \bf keyword}test
\dorecurse{10}{some

{\dorecurse{10}{some

  Hi,


Some time ago I did prepare the files to support Esperanto
in Context (hyphenation and translation of terms).


I thought it was working, testing with the command \date,
which gives the correct format.


But today I remarked that the legends for Figure and Table
(and perhaps other) are in English.


The file lang-txt.lua is there and contains the translations
for Esperanto.

  
  
  The language definitions for esperanto in lang-def.mkxl are in
  the wrong order, the first definition has to be "eo".
  
  
  
  \installlanguage

Thanks Wolfgang, I did find the file and the wrong order.


Now, what should I do? I modified it outside context-lmtx in a
copy.


Replace the original and???

  
  
  You have to make the changes in the original file and afterwards
  generate the format file with
  
  
      context --make
  
  
  If everything works as expected report back and Hans can apply the
  fix on his machine to ensure they are included in the next release
  because when you make a update your changes are overwritten.
  
  
  Wolfgang
  

Thanks Wolfgang, it works perfectly.
You can report to Hans and thank him
for the nice work.

[NTG-context] Running the examples from METAFUN-p

Hi!
I am looking to METAFUN and I wanted
to follow the Growing Graphics demonstration (page 314-- ).
I copied the instructions and
everything went OK up to page 320; the command to place the
figure with a button returns an error:

  \startbuffer[b]
The
  control sequence at the end of the top line of your error message
  was never
\def'ed.
  You can just continue as I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

  It looks like \stopoverlay is not known!!! but \startoverlay is
  recognised!

How to make all the files in the distribution known to the compiler?

  
  

Note that there is currently no proper support for LMTX in PGF/TikZ.

OK, in fact it works in ConTeXt standalone, so I'll use that for

  Hi all,

already for a while I wanted to suggest a regular online meet-up, just to chat or discuss ConTeXt and the world.

Participants of the just finished meeting already know the BigBlueButton “room”, and without the difficulty of a auditory in presence and a weak DHCP, we should have even less problems with it.

I’d offer this monthly, 2–3 hours, and let’s see if it stands the test.

Now, if you’d like to participate, which times would fit you (weekdays, daytime...)?

Warm regards,
Hraban

What is the BigBlueButton “room”?
I am interested.
I hope that the “just finished meeting” was enjoyable, calm, not
  necessarily reposing😂 and of course fruitful.😁
Regards,
  Alain

Besides that, most antivirus solutions for Windows since

As I am the only one who reported this problem, it should be a
  local problem (not one coming from the cross compiler nor the

  the antivirus.
I'll test.
