Cccoooolllll feature. Our company currently generates full product
documentation in different .pdf files.
Since these files have different authors, and sometimes even different
programs, it is a pain to combine these documents.

With this feature I could generate a correct table of contents, and include
all other .pdf generated documents. Ok, that needs some perl programming but
that's no problem.

The delay used for auto proceed to next page in acrobat full screen
mode. I needed that for the nts shifting puzzle (presentation).

Indeed, this one.

>   (\definecolor[StepColor][white])
> - adds \autopresentationstep

For the impatient: this option builds your page piecewise in
presentations.

No, extensions. Now one can also specify dimensions and scaled cells.

More the opposite, I extended table to conform tabulate.

Hi,

Some day taco will have to cook up a working ps-driver alternative.
Clipping currently only works in PDF, but my (DVI)PS knowledge is
inadequate to fill in the PS gap.

Experimental. Please report problems.

No, it fixes an unwanted brak after a sectioning command.

Ah yes, the experimental shading stuff.

The second one. This is not so much new as well more robust. Needed for
SGML processing.

Hm.

Yes, undocumented yet. For those who consider \vbox\bgroup \egroup ugly.

>   (\allocateMPslot, \deallocateMPslot).

Right, btw, reuse of MP was already supported, but is a bit more
efficient now. This allocation trick only works when in cont-sys.tex: 

  \recycleMPslotstrue

is set.  

> - yet another \convertexpanded (!!)

The old one.

Dedicated to Han The Thanh. 

> - changes to \dosetlocalsectieblok
>   (adds a counter and some syntax changes ??)

No, I used to use the first character of a sectionblock identifier to
distinguish among them. In english this resulted in (b)obymatter and
(b)ackmatter, which is buggy, so I now use a counter instead.

> - adds unknown default to \dosetparfloat

otherwise floattexts could disappear (especially with defaults as used
in the maps style)

extends.

and more changes to come.

Probably -) There also were some fixes due to better par breaking in
tables and so. 

> font-ini:

>   (optimization ??)

Ha, better, it now works. When reinplementing this feature I had
forgotten the class prefix (something \??xx that identifies the
parameter classes) so it didn't even work. Roef Ragas needed \tt with
line breaks so there it surfaced.  

> - new macros: \dostartclipping, \dostopclipping
>   (not OK ?? -> what's wrong ??)

I cannot test it because I haven't dvips installed. It's up to you to
fix it. It has something do  with (g)save and (g)restore and the famous
fuzzy specials; it needs to be inserted pretty raw (no save restore) but
work in the local coordinate space). 

> supp-mps:

>   \deallocateMPslot

Reuse of files actually, in pdftex only mpgraph.1 is uded, this saves
many temporary MP files.

Haha, not to you I suppose. 

Thanks again,

Context diff

[Taco Hoekwater]

Here we go again. Differences between the 25-6 version and the 20-7
version. This is not a clean diff this time since I got some
intermediate version from Hans (sorry, forgot to save the old one).

texexec: 
-  support for insertion of empty pages in pdf merge operations. 

core-pag:
-  support for insertion of empty pages in pdf merge operations. 

colo-ini:
-  disable colored marks inside \framed (\ifinframedtrue), 
   macro moved from cont-new.

core-not:
-  footnote fixes that were previously in cont-new.

core-ver:
-  color key that was previously in cont-new.

enco-ini/enco-ec/font-ber:
-  support fixes and a new encoding file for latex's ec encoding.
   (font-ber is still only correct for Times/Helv/Courier, yet
    waiting for completion of names)

supp-pdf:
-  safe testing for pdftex > .14
   (pdftex 0.14 syntax support is complete)

core-01a:
-  titlealign code for definitions that was previously in cont-new
-  minor (?) fix to \dosetlinkregister [internal]

supp-lan:
-  minor fix to \scanurl

syst-ext:
-  \stepwiserecurse now uses \nextrecurse instead of plain \next
   [internal, nesting bug fix]

Context diff

[Taco Hoekwater]

Here we go again. Differences between the 25-6 version and the 20-7
version. This is not a clean diff this time since I got some
intermediate version from Hans (sorry, forgot to save the old one).

texexec: 
-  support for insertion of empty pages in pdf merge operations. 

core-pag:
-  support for insertion of empty pages in pdf merge operations. 

colo-ini:
-  disable colored marks inside \framed (\ifinframedtrue), 
   macro moved from cont-new.

core-not:
-  footnote fixes that were previously in cont-new.

core-ver:
-  color key that was previously in cont-new.

enco-ini/enco-ec/font-ber:
-  support fixes and a new encoding file for latex's ec encoding.
   (font-ber is still only correct for Times/Helv/Courier, yet
    waiting for completion of names)

supp-pdf:
-  safe testing for pdftex > .14
   (pdftex 0.14 syntax support is complete)

core-01a:
-  titlealign code for definitions that was previously in cont-new
-  minor (?) fix to \dosetlinkregister [internal]

supp-lan:
-  minor fix to \scanurl

syst-ext:
-  \stepwiserecurse now uses \nextrecurse instead of plain \next
   [internal, nesting bug fix]

No so much a fix. I considered a global cross ref more convenient than a
local one (for those unfamiliar with this: context supports cross ref
namespaces).

> supp-lan:

More an adaption to the updated accent handler (fix could be undone i
think).

Less change on conflicts that way.

Ah, good that I do a double test somewhere else (otherwise I could not
generate a format at all), thanks.

For those interested, I'm currently testing pdftex version e. Apart from
some restructuring low level pdftex primitives, which is not of much
concern to context users, because the special drivers handle this, a
nice extension is to pick up a page from a pdf file: 

\externalfigure[file.pdf][page=4,width=10cm] 

On top of this, I implemented \insertpages. 

When the new version of pdftex is stable and public, one can say
(context is already prepared for that): 

texexec --pdfarrange --print=up --paper=a5a4  latexfile.pdf 

and get a nice booklet. In principle one can add all kind of other
things because the full context machinery is there.

additional keys are: --textwidth=dimension (needed when single sided
documents are input), --topspace=dimension, --backspace==dimension,
--pageoffset=dimension, --markings, so one can make slightly smaller
pages and cut them off, compensate for a staple in thick ones etc. By
providing more files, one can add titlepages and so. 

For context files, pleas use the normal mechanisms built in. 

texexec handles multiple filenames and makes it into one. Beware: you
need a big tex (2 meg plus some extra_mem_bot/top will do). 

This feature is present in the file I uploaded thi smorning. The next
release of context will bring multiple images (low res screen, high res
printing). Beware, you need pdftex-e, so be patient for some days.
