Re: [NTG-context] Problems with column sets?
Sigh. I should have mentioned that that I reinstalled LMTX from scratch on
both machines, and that my mac is running macOS Monterey 12.3.1.

[NTG-context] LMTX mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force isn't finding fonts in tex/texmf-fonts
Hello. I'm trying to get LMTX to use my fonts on Fedora 33 Linux. I've got LMTX installed in the directory /sw/versions/context/lmtx and I've put copies of the fonts I'd like to use in /sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts. Some of them are truetype and some of them are opentype. When I run mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force it says fonts | names | scanning path '/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for otf files fonts | names | 0 otf files checked, okay and later fonts | names | scanning path '/sw/versions/context/lmtx/tex/texmf-fonts' for ttf files fonts | names | 0 ttf files checked, okay Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong? -- T.

[NTG-context] \startplacetable[location=none] doesn't have a "Table X" label, but \startplacetable[location=force] does
I've got three questions:
1.
I've got a document with some xtables. If I use
\startplacetable[location=none] the tables *don't* have a "Table X"
label, but they float and end up in locations where I don't want them. If I
use \startplacetable[location=force] the tables *do* have a "Table X"
label (which I don't want), but the tables *do* show up where I want
them, that is, they don't float.
How do I get rid of the "Table X" label when I use
\startplacetable[location=force]?
2.
Also, when I constructed the example I used
\startmode[locationforce]
\startplacetable[location=force]
\stopmode
\startnotmode[locationforce]
\startplacetable[location=none]
\stopmode
so I could build both outputs from the same input file. When the
locationforce mode was *not* set the command finished with no errors,
but when the locationforce mode *was* set the command finished with the
error:
tex error > tex error on line 229 in file
./table-location-label-wrong.ctx: The file ended when scanning an
argument.
however, when I used
\doifmodeelse{locationforce}{\startplacetable[location=force]}{\startplacetable[location=none]}
instead, it worked fine.
3.
Even when I use the --noconsole option on my context invocation, there
is a lot of information that is written to the console. It looks like the
information is repeated for each run context makes over the file. Is there
some way to get this information to show up in the log file, instead of on
the console?
ConTeXt's version information:
ConTeXt ver: 2021.06.13 19:21 LMTX fmt: 2021.6.13 int: english/english.
I've attached my example (table-location-label.ctx), the GNUmakefile I use
to build it using --mode so that the same source produces both the version
with location=force and location=none, and the two PDF output files (
table-location-label-none.pdf and table-location-label-force.pdf).
I've also attached the version where I tried to use \startmode/\startnotmode
(table-location-label-wrong.ctx).

I think that it would be useful. I use Unicode characters extensively in
my ConTeXt input, but only because I edit it in Emacs and can set up
keymaps that map to the Unicode characters in a way that I can actually
remember. I think that this would add an easily remembered way for people
to add combining characters to their documents. Sometimes a slightly more
verbose way to do something is helpful when it is more easily remembered.
(Honestly, I can't remember the hex codes for any Unicode characters after
you get out of the range that maps to plain ASCII

Re: [NTG-context] How can I make "natural table" be exactly as wide as the textwidth?
Here's a MWE that produces the oddly distributed columns:
\setuplayout[backspace=0.5in,width=4.5in,topspace=0.5in,
top=0in,topdistance=0in,
header=0in,headerdistance=0in,bottom=0.25in,bottomdistance=0.125in,
footer=0.25in,footerdistance=0.25in,height=7.75in]
\setuppagenumbering[location={footer,middle}]
\setupwhitespace[quarterline]
\setupbodyfont[pagella,9pt]
\definepapersize[digest][width=5.5in,height=8.5in]
\setuppapersize[digest]
\starttext
\startplacetable[location=force,title={Stun Levels}]
\definecolor[back-3][r=.8,g=.8,b=.8]
\setupTABLE[background=color,frame=off,framecolor=white]
\setupTABLE[row][odd][backgroundcolor=back-3]
\setupTABLE[row][1][topframe=on,bottomframe=on,framecolor=
black,rulethickness=0.75pt]
\setupTABLE[row][4][bottomframe=on,framecolor=black,rulethickness=0.75pt]
\bTABLE[width=broad]
\bTR\bTD {\bf Damage >\\Soak by:}\ \eTD\bTD {\bf
Stun\\Level}\eTD\bTD {\bf Stun\\Effects} \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD 0 or less\eTD\bTD Unharmed \eTD\bTD None.
\eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD 1 to 8 \eTD\bTD Stunned \eTD\bTD -1D on all actions for
2D rounds. \eTD\eTR
\bTR\bTD 9+ \eTD\bTD Severely\\Stunned\eTD\bTD The character is
knocked unconscious for 2D minutes.\eTD\eTR
\eTABLE
\stopplacetable
\stoptext
Naively, I expected the third column, which has the longest text, to absorb
more of the width, rather than the three columns getting about the same
width.
I added the following two lines before the \bTABLE:
\setupTABLE[column][1][width=6em]
\setupTABLE[column][2][width=6em]
This caused all the space not used by the first two columns to be used by
the third column.
Thinking about it a little more, the first result makes sense: there is
probably no way for ConTeXt to figure out that the third column should be
wider unless it is given some constraints.
Interestingly, groff's tbl has a Column Specifier, x or X, that, after
computing all the widths of columns without an x specifier, uses the
remaining line width for the columns with an x, distributing them equally
across the columns with x specifiers. (I often use groff for
quick-and-dirty documents, or where ConTeXt is not installed; I use ConTeXt
for documents that are more complex, or ones that need their appearance
customized.) This is particularly useful when one column has paragraph
length text contents, and the other columns don't.
I don't suppose there is a bTABLE equivalent? Or an equivalent in one of
ConTeXt's other table types?

[NTG-context] Confusion with fonts
I've got a small ConTeXt source file, that is a minimization of a file generated by the the ConTeXt output of pandoc using pandoc features to set the main font to ebgaramond: \definefallbackfamily[mainface][rm][CMU Serif][preset=range:greek, force=yes] \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][ebgaramond] \definefontfamily[mainface][mm][Latin Modern Math] \definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Latin Modern Sans] \definefontfamily[mainface][tt][Latin Modern Typewriter][features=none] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext Is this text in Pagella? \stoptext When I run it through context it works and produces output that uses the EBGaramond font. The following also work: antykwapoltawskiego, asana, cambria, charter, ebgaramond, gentium, inconsolata, iwona, kurier, lato, punknova, stix, and xits. But other things, like palatino and pagella and dejavu. Those end up using Latin Modern Roman. I realize I don't understand ConTeXt's font handling and typescripts very well, could someone explain why some of those things work, and others don't? I'll note that pandoc generates this because it lets users of pandoc specify different fonts for the main body font, the math font, the sans font, and the mono font.

Re: [NTG-context] How can I make "natural table" be exactly as wide as the textwidth?
That did the trick! It did distribute the new width oddly, with adding more width to the the first and second columns, while the third column, which had the most text to wrap, was not as wide as it could have been. I had to set widths for the first and second columns, and had to experiment to get them right. Thanks for the help! On Sun, Dec 6, 2020 at 2:20 AM Aditya Mahajan wrote: > On Sun, 6 Dec 2020, T.

wasn't a \setupalign[line] !

Re: [NTG-context] How do I get rid of the ct and st ligatures in EBGaramond?
Interesting.
Here is a an example that sort of works, Variant 1:
\definefontfamily[english] [rm] [ebgaramond] [features={default, dlig=no}]
\setupbodyfont[english,10pt]
\starttext
Variant 1:
Does this look like EBGaramond?
fi fl ffi ffl ct st
\stoptext
However, it turns of *all* the ligatures.
Here is an example that works as expected, Variant 2:
\definefontfeature[english][dlig=no]
\definefontfamily[ebgaramond] [rm] [EB Garamond]
[features={default,english}]
\setupbodyfont[ebgaramond,10pt]
\starttext
Variant 2:
Does this look like EBGaramond?
fi fl ffi ffl ct st
\stoptext
It turns off just the ct and st ligatures.
I've attached the generated PDF files for both variants.

Re: [NTG-context] How do I get rid of the ct and st ligatures in EBGaramond?
Ah, ok.
Here is a minimal NONWORKING example: the resulting PDF shows the ct and st
ligatures. What commands should I use to turn them off?
\definefontfamily[english] [rm] [ebgaramond] [features={default,dlig=no}]
\setupbodyfont[ebgaramond,10pt]
\starttext
ct st
\stoptext

Re: [NTG-context] LMTX running on macOS Catalina; fuzzy paragraphs; unwanted whitespace
It turns out that the extra whitespace before and after the section headers
in the body appears when I put \startcolumns[n=2] before the body text and
\stopcolumns after it. Here's the MWE, just slightly modified from your
example:
begin example
\setuphead
[chapter,section,subsection,subsubsection]
[before={\blank[nowhite]},
after={\blank[nowhite]}]
\setupwhitespace
[medium]
%\showgrid
\starttext
\startcolumns[n=2]
\completecontent
\chapter{Chapter}
\samplefile{knuth}
\section{Section}
\samplefile{weisman}
\subsection{Subsection}
\samplefile{weisman}
\subsubsection{Subsubsection}
\samplefile{weisman}
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
end example

[NTG-context] LMTX running on macOS Catalina; fuzzy paragraphs; unwanted whitespace
I got LMTX running on macOS Catalina. I followed the directions here
<https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Installing_ConTeXt_LMTX_on_MacOS> for
versions prior to Catalina, including authorizing the mtxrun script through
Security & Privacy General tab. The first run of install.sh stopped with
the errors:
cp: cannot stat
'/Users/tkb/context-osx-64/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua':
No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat
'/Users/tkb/context-osx-64/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-install.lua':
No such file or directory
So I ran install.sh again. This time it said a bunch of things were
missing and downloaded them. It seemed to finish ok, so I ran context on
my document and it produced a PDF! (The ConTexT with TeXLive 2018 and
TeXLive 2019 both died on this document with different unhelpful errors, by
the way.)
Both LMTX and TeXLive 2019 ran 5 to 10 times slower than TeXLive 2018, and
both complain about "fuzzy paragraphs" with a list of U+ codepoints.
What's that mean?
However, the PDF has unwanted whitespace in many areas.
- It has unwanted whitespace between the entries in the Table of
Contents.
- It has unwanted whitespace before and after section headings, despite
me having "before={},after={}" in the \setuphead commands for all the
levels of sections.
- And it had a large unwanted white space between paragraphs until I
\setupwhitespace[none]. I'd prefer a little bit of white space between
paragraphs, but I tried \setupwhitespace[0.5ex] and
\definemeasure[between][0.25ex] with \setupwhitespace[\measure{between}],
and \setupwhitespace[5pt] but all those went back to way too much white
space between paragraphs.
Any ideas?

[NTG-context] Extend is indented after section (2nd try)
[This is a second try at sending this message, after I got the not that I'm
on the mailing list now.]
Hello,
When I'm using an exdent after a section command, the first line of the
exdented paragraph is indented, instead of exdented. Here's an example:
=
\definestartstop
[exdent]
[before={\startnarrower[left]\setupindenting[-\leftskip,yes]},
after=\stopnarrower]
\starttext
\startcolumns[n=2]
\section{Heading 1}
Some text.
\startexdent
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
\stopexdent
\section{Heading 2}
\startexdent
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
This sentence needs to be long enough to wrap at least once.
\stopexdent
\stoptext
=
The paragraph after "Heading 2" is indented. If I delete the text "Some
text." after "Heading 1", the exdented paragraph is is also indented
instead of exdented.
What can I do to prevent this?
