[NTG-context] showcase on mac?
Willi Egger helped me get a minimal install working on my mac and I'm working on a collection of columns illustrated with pictures. It's been a while since I used Context so I want to download some basic manuals to refresh my memory and learn new things. On my Windows machine I can view/navigate and download manuals from the http://www.pragma-ade.nl/showcase.pdf page, but on my mac this doesn't work. In the Safari browser, nothing happens if I click on the manuals link. In Firefox, the showcase PDF is downloaded and I can open it. After allowing the file to go full screen, I get error messages for the links there was an error opening this document/ the file cannot be found', execpt on the quit link ;-) Is there a simple thing I should change to make it work on the mac as well?

I noticed that manuals are available from http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Main_Page as well so I won't worry too much about my Mac browsers' hesitations Frans On 28 sep 2008, at 14:08, Wolfgang Schuster wrote: Am 28.09.2008 um 13:40 schrieb Frans Goddijn: Willi Egger helped me get a minimal install working on my mac and I'm working on a collection of columns illustrated with pictures.

Re: [NTG-context] showcase on mac?
When I click on the showcase link, my Firefox 3.0.3 _downloads_ de PDF, doesn't show it in the browser. I then double click the downloaded file, Adobe Reader 8.1.2 starts up and if I click a link, it says There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found. I deleted the Reader and downloaded/installed Reader 9.0.0 from the Adobe website. This time no error message but also no action when I click on any link but quit Still, it must be something on my machine, since others don't have this problem.

[NTG-context] translation question
Note: this is not about ConTeXt (I have used ConTeXt but not actively these days) but I'm sending in this question as per suggestion to me by Hans Hagen. Sarah, the daughter of a friend, is studying at Carnegie Mellon University where she's designing games with a group called the Game Creation Society. One of the games produced popped up on a Czech download site with a Czech text and Sarah and her group would like to know what the text means... Any Czech here who'd care to translate or give a general impression in English of what the text says? Hans Hagen said there might me. Thanks for your time, Frans [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.rijksbinnenhaven.nl /// Sarah writes: This is about one of the GCS games... It's been put up on some free game downloading site, and he found a different foreign website that has it on it. Power Monkey je novinkou z dílny týmu Game Creation Society. Jejich díla je tøeba brát smrtelnì vážnì už jen proto, že jde o seskupení profesionálních vývojáøù, kteøí se ve volném èase baví tvorbou nezávislých titulù. Konkrétnì tenhle je roztomilou arkádou s opièkou v hlavní roli. Jako každá správná opice, má i tahle velice ráda banány. Nìjaký dobrodinec jí pøitom poházel po dvou na zaèátku dostupných úrovních spoustu kusù lahodného žlutého ovoce. Úkolem hráèe tedy není nic jiného, než se jimi proskákat a všechny banány v èasovém limitu sežrat. Povede-li se dokonèit dva poèáteèní levely, otevøe se ještì bonusový tøetí. Power Monkey se hraje dokonale pohodovì. Èas, který je na jednotlivé levely nasazen, není úplnì benevolentní, napodruhé èi nejpozdìji napotøetí už ale vìtšina hráèù úroveò dokonèí. K ovládání slouží základní kombinace WASD a myši, celkový dobrý dojem pak dotváøí audiovizuální zpracování, možná ne dokonalé, rozhodnì ale roztomilé a zejména v lesním levelu velmi stylové. Power Monkey je zkrátka pìkná 3D arkáda, jež potìší zejména mladší hráèe. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
