I can also recommend Git.  It's fast, easy to use (no, really!), and
very actively developed.  What's most important about using Git,
though, is that it seems to be the most future-proof alternative.  I'm
sure Mercurial will be around for a long time, just as Subversion
will, but of all the SCMs Git has the best foundation.

[NTG-context] Incorrect bookmark title of \completelistofabbreviations and no abbreviations are listed

2009-03-10 Thread Nikolai Weibull
Hi!

Long time no post.  Anyway, I’m writing a document where I’m using
abbreviations.  In neither --lua nor --xtx do I get a list of
abbreviations with \completelistofabbreviations.  The bookmark text is
\headtext {abbreviations} for both.  With --pdf I get a list of
abbreviations and the bookmark text is abbreviations.  Here's a
minimal example:

\setupheadtext[en][abbreviations={Abbreviations Used in This Document}]

\abbreviation{CSS}{Cascading Style Sheets}

\setupinteraction
  [state=start,
   menu=on]
\placebookmarks[chapter]

\starttext

\startbodymatter
\CSS\ stands for \infull{CSS}.
\stopbodymatter

\startbackmatter
\completelistofabbreviations
\stopbackmatter

\stoptext

All the vim latex suite is really doing is packaging a bunch of (not

 concerning id ... it's non free, never sure what happens in ten years (adobe 
 dropped pagemaker, (i'm told) messed up frame, so ...) and in order to

 because they can keep changing per page which is more proffitable than change 
 for a simple stylesheet once); and ... publishers don't really care about

I'd just like to add that InDesign is often misused by its users, so
don't expect other people to use InDesign like you think you will.  I
work at a company that does translations, and, for us, dealing with
InDesign documents is about the most painful job there is.  Sure, the
documents may look good, but the means to getting the documents are
often not justifiable.  But I guess it's more of an issue of the users
not knowing how to use their software than there being a problem with
the software itself.

To that I'd like to add that I really don't like WYSIWYG because it's
rarely true.  And if you want to do professional work you really want
something as flexible as TeX.  Also, TeX scales really well, from
small pamphlet-like documents to large books.  The same can't be said
for InDesign.

[NTG-context] List of builtin TeX commands

2006-03-25 Thread Nikolai Weibull
Hi!

Is there a list of builtin TeX commands anywhere on the net?  I need
it for a syntax definition of  the plain TeX format.

With builtin TeX commands I mean stuff like \def, \global, and such.

A list of commands defined in plain.tex would be great as well, but at
least that's easier to compile by myself, as I can just look in the
actual file.

The tex source is a bit harder to overview...

how to complement this on the ConTeXt side (i.e., defining \highlight)
and things will depend on how this is done.  Some sort of \type
environment would be nice, as it is better to not do escaping of special
characters on the Vim side.  Someone with better knowledge of how to do
this than I have is welcome to finish it.  The \highlight command should
be defined something like this (pseudo-tex-code):

\pdef\highlight[#1]{#2}%
  {\bgroup
   \setupcolorforgroup[#1]%
   \type{#2}%
   \egroup}

#1 is a group name, such as Statement, Operator, or Comment.  #2 may
contain multiple lines, and I don’t know how well this will work on the
TeX side.  It may also contain special characters like {, #, , and so
on.  Suggestions?

 Then again, most (all?) of publishers require Latex source, if my

 Context..
 
 None of them individually fit all (I admit, vague) requirements..
 Context being able to chew up Latex .cls files and still allowing for
 its advanced formatting directives, long tables, and other goodies
 would be a perfect match.

We were planning on using Vim for preprocessing things like this instead
of hacking TeX to do the lexing.  I think Mojca (?) had some ideas for
this and perhaps even a simple implementation, and given that there is
now structured support for preprocessing in texexec I think that this
can be done quite easily.  A lot easier than writing something in TeX.

[NTG-context] Building and installing pdftex 1.30 on teTeX 3.0

2005-11-28 Thread Nikolai Weibull
I've followed the instructions listed at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TeTeX_3.0_installation, but it won't quite
give.  The problem is that I use the Gentoo installation setup as a base
and have the latest ConTeXt installed in /usr/local/share.  Does anyone
know what options to pass to pdftex's configure-script to match the
setup on a Gentoo system (where stuff is stored in /etc/texmf and
/var/lib/texmf)?

Thanks.

 It would be simplest (and definately justified) to ask this to the 
 Gentoo maintainer, because (s)he has apparently succeeded in setting
 that up (Gentoo's trees seem to bear only a passing resemblance to
 teTeX and would be more accurately called Gentoo-TeX).

Sadly, there's no separate pdfetex ebuild for Gentoo.  If there was, I
wouldn't have to mess with this :-).

 My best guess: find the non-etc version of texmf.cnf (I'm fairly
 certain there is one), and attempt to pass the root of texmf tree
 that contains it as  --datadir to the configure script.

Yes, there's one in /var/lib/texmf/web2c.  The reason for this layout is
to separate architecture-dependent files and non-architecture-dependent
files.  I can't say that the added complexity justify this separation.

 What do you do with ConTeXT?

I use ConTeXt for any document that I figure someone will want to print

even considered typesetting software documentation with ConTeXt, but
haven’t yet decided if PDFs are the right medium for that kind of text.
I also typeset my master’s thesis using ConTeXt and probably spent as
much time hacking ConTeXt as I did on doing “actual work” for the
content.  Not because ConTeXt couldn’t do what I wanted, but because
ConTeXt allowed me to do anything I wanted.  Having a lot of options can
be time-consuming, as you want to try them all before deciding on the
one that works best.  This is both the good and the bad thing about
ConTeXt.  You can tweak and tweak and tweak, whereas with something like
LaTeX you have a few boring designs and you just choose the one that
suits the type of document your writing.  And your document will look
like five million other research papers outh there.  I wanted something
unique and ConTeXt was just the right tool for it.

 I'm not sure what you mean by lay closer to a standard baseline.

Neither am I...

 The baseline of the glyph inside the key is aligned with text outside
 the key. I waffled back and forth trying to find the most attractive
 position while building the font. The majority of keycaps fonts I
 looked at chose the same baseline.

Ah, of course.  That's perhaps as good as it gets,

I reported this bug back in April but no one replied.  The problem is
that the first character is read and then not given back the right
catcode so that the typing stuff can process it correctly.

This mainly affected me when I was trying to write inline C code, such
as \type{int a}, because the int wouldn't be highlighted as a keyword.

 I'm thinking about piping the code to vim, letting the vim process it
 and return something like
 
 \highlight[Conditional]{if}\highlight[Delimiter]{(}\highlight[Identifier]{i}
 ...
 One should modify the 2html.vim file (vim can already nicely transform
 the highlighted code into HTML, so ConTeXt shouldn't be so difficult).
 Vim already has over 400 sytax file definitions (probably equivalent
 to some hundred thousans lines of syntax definitions in ConTeXt).
 Well, I don't know (yet) how to do it, but if someone on the list has
 more experience with vim, please feel free to contribute.

Yes, this would definitely be a good alternative way of getting
highlighting (for free).  Writing a converter shouldn't be that hard,
and writing ConTeXt code shouldn't be impossible either.  Alas, I don't
have time at the moment.  I need to find myself a job first; which sadly
probably won't be found in Sweden...Sweden is such a boring place when
it comes to IT,

Hm, probably not.  The problem with TeX is that it's so goddam flexible
when it comes to syntax.  The whole deal with turning $ on and off, %
into something else, and so on is really hard to capture in a syntax
highlighter.  To do so successfully, the highlighter would more or less
have to parse the TeX document itself to understand when and where to do
what.  I guess special cases like the one above (with a very weird URL
indeed) so that \useURL would be parsed differently, but it's impossible

  I was astonished as I saw autocomplete work. There are only a couple of 
  lines with an extraordinary functionality. I think that if someone 
  writes a good script to convert texshow to vim syntax highlighting 
  script, than autocomplete will be able to provide good hints for all the 
  existing commands in ConTeXt and the corresponding parameters. I'll try 
  to see what I can do, but please don't excpect any results too soon.

There's always the ever-simple CTRL-P/CTRL-N as well.

 What is the syntax? I can exten ctstools to spit out a vim keyword table; 
 it already handles scite, jedit and bbedit so adding vim is not undoable

Download vim and run :help syntax.  But the short version is

syn keyword contextKeyword  ...
^-- group name  ^-- keywords

But that won't work for stuff beginning with \\.  Then you'll have to
use regexes and

syn match   contextKeyword  ...
^-- regex

Exactly what kind of keyword table are we talking about?,

[NTG-context] Old-style numerals

2005-06-16 Thread Nikolai Weibull
To get old-style numerals as the default, the accepted solutions seems
to be the following:

\usetypescript [modern][\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript [map] [latin-modern-os] [\defaultencoding]

\setupbodyfont[modern]

However, this causes old-style numbers to be used for \type as well,
which looks weird.  Is there a way to override the switching to
old-style numerals for the fixed-width typeface?

Example:

\usetypescript [modern][\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript [map] [latin-modern-os] [\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[modern]
\starttext
1 2 3 \type{1 2 3}
\stoptext

Thanks,

 Normally, all paragraphs are indented in Chinese documents. But when I 
 use \setupindenting[first,medium] to setup indentation for every 
 paragraph, it has no effect on the first paragraph at all. I can't 
 change the indentation even I put indenting[...] before the first 
 paragraph.

Yes, I get the same results.  \indent doesn't work either.

I took a look on the code dealing with \setupindenting and it seems as
if first is being processed correctly.  The problem seems to be in
\presetindentation, and redefining it slightly seems to help:

\setupindenting
  [first,medium]
\def\presetindentation
  {\ifindentfirstparagraph\doindentation\else\noindentation\fi}
\starttext
\chapter{First}
\input tufte
\stoptext

I don't in any way guarantee that this is the right way to solve it, but it
works,

 Try something like
 
 \startitemize[1 (or whatever symbol you want), 2*serried]

I tried that, but the problem is that when one uses inmargin, this
doesnt seem to work.  It seems that the interplay between width and
distance isnt working as I would expect.  Anyway, thanks,

The first paragraph will only be the first character, f, the reason is
made clear from the following two paragraphs.

In the second paragraph, function comes out, but it isn't highlighted as
a keyword, as the initial f has been consumed and thus the unction
part doesn't match any keywords.  I guess this is due to the
type-handling checking for double characters, like in \type ... ?

In the third paragraph, only the initial space is output.  The rest will
never be output, as \PLsequence never gets a chance to be printed.

Only in the fourth paragraph is function output correctly, although it
is now surrounded by two spaces.

Any suggestions on possible solutions, other than removing the
option=JS?,

Re: [NTG-context] table won't break across page

2005-04-10 Thread Nikolai Weibull
Paul Tremblay, April 10:

 I am trying to create a table that breaks across pages. I used the
 example from the wiki. The table repeated its headers like it should
 have, but it did not break across a page; it stuck the table on one
 page. 

The example on the wiki is messed up.  I guess I could have fixed it,
but I haven't had time:

\splitfloat
  {\placetable{Percentage of People without}}
  {\starttablehead
   
   \stoptablehead
   \starttabletail
   
   \stoptabletail
   \starttables[]
   
   \stoptables}

Enjoy,

 When I got your email, I saw the ???. I assumed you put them in to
 indicate I should fill in the blank. What characters were you trying to
 convey here? I wasn't aware that my emailer was messing things up. It is
 the mutt emailer.

Those are supposed to be ellipses of the horizontal and vertical kind to
the effect that you perceived them to be (as ?, though).  Anyway, you
can compile mutt with unicode support.  You need to enable unicode
support in ncurses as well.  Anyway, it doesn't matter much I suppose,

[NTG-context] Problem with the bib module (yeah, so what else is new)

2005-03-30 Thread Nikolai Weibull
OK, another one of those hey, the bib module has an issue-kind of
mails.  The problem is that \bibdoif and its relatives don't work.
They always evaluate to true.  I have tried to figure out why this is
so, but I'm just not good enough at reading TeX macros (yet).  The main
problem is that I want to do something like this for my
\setuppublicationlist:

\doglobal\newif\ifBIBLoutputbeforesurname
\global\BIBLoutputbeforesurnamefalse

\def\BIBLwholename#1#2#3#4#5%
  
{\bibdoif{#1}{#1\unskip\bibalternative\c!firstnamesep\BIBLoutputbeforesurnametrue}%
   
\bibdoif{#4}{#4\unskip\bibalternative\c!firstnamesep\BIBLoutputbeforesurnametrue}%
   \bibdoif{#2}{#2\unskip\bibalternative\c!vonsep\BIBLoutputbeforesurnametrue}%
   \ifBIBLoutputbeforesurname \else
 \unskip%
 \BIBLoutputbeforesurnamefalse%
   \fi
   #3\bibalternative\c!surnamesep%
   \bibdoif{#5}{#5\unskip}}

The problem is that one can't have

\author[]{}[]{}{Organization}

without extra spaces appearing before the Organization.  Another issue is that
extra spaces occur between the first and last name in the \normalauthor
style,

Yeah, that will work.  The problem is, though, that I'd really like it
to be in one \type as I am actually using something called \TypedRegex

I guess I could fake the quotes and use the split-\type trick,

[NTG-context] Title-page overlay

2005-03-20 Thread Nikolai Weibull
I would like to put a rather large and complicated regular expression
into the title-page of a document I'm writing.  So far, I haven't had
much luck defining an overlay that uses \starttyping ... \stoptyping.

Basically, what I figured I should do was to write

\defineoverlay
  [TitleGraphic]
  [{
\starttyping
...
\stoptyping
}]

and then

\setupbackgrounds[page][background=TitleGraphic]

But that doesn't work:

! Argument of \copyverbatimline has an extra }.

Have any suggestions on what I might try?  Basically, what I want is a
background with some arbitrary text, more or less like the pdfTeX user
manual document does it [1],

[NTG-context] Right aligned caption text.

2005-02-12 Thread Nikolai Weibull
I would like two different methods of typesetting the captions of
figures.  Short captions should be aligned in the middle, while longer
ones (spanning more than one line) should be aligned to the right (well,
ragged right...).  What I did to achieve this was to

\definefloat[describedfigure][describedfigures][figure]

\setupcaption
  [describedfigure]
  [align=right]

\placedescribedfigure
  []
  [figure:...]
  {A long description of the figure...}
  {...}

and this works fine (is there a simpler way?).  What I would like now is
to have the caption of describedfigure to have a small margin, so it
doesn't quite fill the width of the described figure.  I couldn't find
this described in details.pdf (http://www.pragma-ade.com/ is down at the
moment so I couldn't check for any other doc's either).

Any suggestions?,

problems getting fonts loaded in ConTeXt.

seems innocent enough, but produces two identical tables.  pdfetex is

Warning: pdfetex (file all-base.map): cannot open font map file

Well, if it's already out there, there's really not much to do about it,

 It might not be the only way, this should work:
 
 \placefigure
  [here]
  [fig:somelabel]
  {Caption}
  \placelegend{Figure}
  {Text}

 Hm, yeah, that works OK.  I was hoping for something that made a little

 ik, let's give you a cue:

I don't understand...is that an ik, as in I disapprove?

 \placefigure
   {What a caption}
   {\placelegend
  {\externalfigure[cow.pdf]}
  {\input zapf \relax}}
 
 \placefigure
   {What a caption}
   {\placelegend[location=right]
  {\externalfigure[cow.pdf]}
  {\input zapf \relax}}

 using buffers makes sense here:

 \startbuffer
 lots of text
 \stopbuffer
 
 \placefigure
   {What a caption}
   {\placelegend
  {\externalfigure[cow.pdf]}
  {\getbuffer}}

Yeah, that's a good suggestion,
nikolai

[NTG-context] using \startfiguretext ... \stopfiguretext

2004-12-09 Thread Nikolai Weibull
How do I get a figure with text that is displayed like

Figure
Text
Caption

where we first have the figure, then a description of it below, and
finally a caption?  So far I've only managed to get the text to appear
to the left or right of the figure.
