Hi Hans Hi all,
since yesterday evening (Context 2010.02.25 19:46 MKIV) the Lua
fonttester doesn't
work anymore. After starting it with
mtxrun --script server --auto (MAPS 39, page E75 :-)
I can see the Startpage in my Browser.
After clicking fonttest the script breaks with following errormessage:
James,
How about this.
BL:=87;
z0=origin;
z1=(5,0);
z4=dir(BL); % Intermediate point
z3=10/y4*z4;
z2=z3+z1;
or alternatively without having to define z4
BL:=87;
z0=origin;
z1=(5,0);
z3=10/(ypart dir(BL))*dir(BL);
z2=z3+z1;

Aha! That certainly works. I suspected I would have to fall back on
"low-level" trig :). Many thanks!

James,
I apologize, but the previous information that I gave you was wrong.
Try this instead:
z0 = origin;
z1 = (5,0);
BL:=87;
r:=10/sind(BL);
z3 = r*dir(BL);
z2 = z3-z0+z1;

If your question is of interest t
James,
Try this:
z0 = origin;
z1 = (5,0);
z3 = 10*dir(87);
z2 = z3-z0+z1;

This isn't specifically a ConTeXt question, but via it I've run into a
seemingly simple problem in METAPOST that I just can't solve. I'm
trying to draw a parallelogram by specifying: (1) the length of sides
parallel to the x-axis; (2) the total height of the figure; (3) one of
the interior angles.
Wonderful! Those were good recommendations; I shall work through them.
Maybe I will buy the TeXbook eventually; however, I've just splashed out on
the METAFONTbook, so I'll give it a while.

Hi,
After a few days working in "do what the tutorials say" mode, I now want to
understand TeX from a programmer's mindset. I have not been able just by
practise to work out what the syntactic rules of TeX are, and I am hoping
that there is a sensible guide to this somewhere. However, searches

Thanks for the reply -- and sorry for the rather grumpy way in which I posed
the question. The problem for me was this mysterious "width=middle",
"height=middle" -- this is fairly undocumented at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layout . There is a mention of
"width=middle", but it's just

texexec has --passon option, so you can do
