Re: [NTG-context] Quick way to proofread / check index entries?
Bruce,
Did something of the sort a while back: redefined the index command to
something short, in capitals; then adjusted the syntax highlighting to pick up
the code. This was for emacs + auctex, so it was just a case of adjusting one
of the stock auctex files. I think Scite may let one do something similar.

Subject: [NTG-context] Quick way to proofread / check index entries?
Date: Sunday, 4 September 2022 06:51
My own fault for not thinking head :-) but I have a largeish text with a lot of
\index{...} entries. To make life easier for the proofreader I would like to
temporarily redefine \index to wrap it or replace it with something that will
highlight indexed items in the text where they occur, e.g. change their colour.
I could do this with a global find and replace (across many files) to replace
\index with \MyIndex, say, and then define a \MyIndex that understands the
various parameter options but this is a hassle. Before I do this, is there
anything already pre-built?
The ultimate aim is to enable a proofreader to see each indexed term where it
appears in order to judge whether the term deserves to be in the index at all.
(Working backwards from the index itself is possible but clicking a page
number, trying to find the term on the page, then reading the context to make a
decision is quite hard work - much easier to read through and deal with the
terms as they appear.)

Using
\startplacefigure[title={complete caption}, list={description in the
table of figures}]...\stopplacefigure
you can have different caption texts, like for titles.

I often use \ininner{\rotate[location=fit]{Copyright notice}}, but
it’s
a hassle to get the placement right, don’t use it within the caption.
Using \setlayer is most reliable.

[NTG-context] LMTX | (.\) at end of line causes fatal error
Something I've noticed for a little while now, although it may be long standing, I'm not sure. If one ends some of the lines in the input files with a full stop (.) and a back slash (\) then LMTX will fail to compile with a fatal error. The only way to recover is to go through each of the files and ensure that no line ends with (.\). Is this a bug?

> - initial indic transliteration support .. recent indic (font)
> experiences and transliteration tricks will be eplained by kauśika
Recently when we were troubled by incorrect rendering of certain
conjuncts in
malayalam, Hans added a new font-feature. More below*, but first some
background: from my testing, the main reason for the problems with
fonts seems
to come from the varied interpretations and/or implementations of OTF
specification. To add to this complexity there are two script tags
(v1, v2 in
OTF and -one, -two in ConTeXt) for each writing system (script). While
there
are fonts which work very well right away many others have issues and
the
feature was added to somewhat alleviate these issues.
*The feature is 'indic'. It has two aspects: 'movematra' and
'conjuncts'.
conjuncts takes values: mixed | continue | quit | auto
movematra takes values: default | leftbeforebase | auto
By default
indic=auto
for indic scripts. So this "should work" in most cases.
In case there are issues, I have seen that the following approach
usually
yields best result in debugging:
• try to switch between the -one and -two version of the features
(i.e. use
the v1 or v2 OTF script tag): some fonts may have some rules defined
only under
one of the script tags. (I am not an expert in fonts but with my
testing of
free fonts I have seen this).
• if that does not fix (the particular issue), revert to a working
feature and
then set the indic feature as indic={movematra=default,conjuncts=quit}
to see
• Please see:
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg99691.html
issues usually have a pattern (across languages/scripts so some hacks
might
work)
For conjuncts, 'mixed' and 'auto' are synonymous. Setting
conjuncts=mixed
ensures that for some fonts conjuncts with the reph forms are rendered
correctly. (This was tested with a relatively new font in malayalam
using the
mlm2 script tag).
For problematic fonts, if one can identify which conjuncts work under
which
script tag and/or with what settings for indic, then, using ConTeXt
feature
sets one can easily fix rendering in documents by doing, for instance
{\feature[=][devanagari-two] …}, and/or
{\feature[=][devanagari-one] …} accordingly
See the comprehensive wiki page:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Featuresets
for more details on how such feautresets might be built and applied.
Now, a brief note on the transliterations macros. First, one specifies
that
indic transliteration is desired with:
\usetransliteration[indic]
Now, one can transliterate sanskrit to and from various forms by using
\transliterate[scheme]{ … }
where scheme is one of:
• iast to deva
• deva to iast
• deva to mlym
which are respectively the following schemes :
• IAST → Devanagari
• Devanagari → IAST
• Devanagari → Malayalam
More schemes will be added in the near future for various other indic
scripts
as well. Currently there is only support for sanskrit language, which
we can
extend to other languages (wherever the script allows).
Additionally, there is also
\definetransliteration[…][…]
which can be used to define a specific transliteration block.
So, one just sets vector accordingly to get the desired
transliteration block.
Please see below a minimal example for both:
% SOF
\usetransliteration[indic]
\definetransliteration
[MyIASTtoDeva]
[color=blue,
style=bold,
language=sa,
vector={iast to deva}]
\starttransliteration[MyIASTtoDeva]%[color=green] can set a new
color here
idaṁ śarīraṁ kaunteya kṣetramityabhidīyate.
etadyo vetti taṁ prāhuḥ kṣetrajña iti tadvidaḥ.
\stoptransliteration
\transliteration[MyIASTtoDeva]{idaṁ śarīraṁ kaunteya
kṣetramityabhidīyate}
% or directly
\transliterate[iast to deva]{idaṁ śarīraṁ kaunteya
kṣetramityabhidīyate}
% EOF

I've been wondering if there is some syntax that one can use in:
\placetable or \placefigure
to control the Table of Figure Title appearing in:
\completelistoftables and \completelistoffigures
At the moment one can do this for the output of:
\completecontent
with something such as the following:
\startsection[title={Title in body},list={Title in contents}]
Such a thing would be *extremely* useful for a current
publication. :)
