Hi All,

Attached you find an example of pdftex's impressive protruding character
capabilities. I'm still experimenting with the right values, as well as
with the high level layer around the low level primitives. 

Since protruding is font design specific, it's part of the filename spec.
This functionality is present in the latest beta release.

Dear gang,

Is there a Context way of stamping a greyed <Draft> on each page of a

see metafun manual, you can put it anywhere you want.

or use brute force:

\setuptexttexts
   [\hbox to \hsize
      {\dorecurse{4}
         {\rotate{\gray\WidthSpanningText{Idris S Hamid}{\textheight}{Mono}}%
          \hss}\unskip}]

Ah, so the manual sucks -)

Well, i hope that the next example shows you the way to even more dirty 
trickery. The \cpos macro will be added to ppchtex.tex

[beware: this example only works in context]

[i'll send you the file off line]

% output=pdftex

\usemodule[chemic]

\def\cpos#1#2%
   {\bgroup
    \pushmacro\dowithchemical
    \gdef\dowithchemical##1{\hpos{#1}{##1}\popmacro\dowithchemical}%
    #2%
    \egroup}

\starttext

The idea is this:

\startMPpositiongraphic{connect}
   initialize_box_pos(1, \MPpos{\MPvar{from}}) ;
   initialize_box_pos(2, \MPpos{\MPvar{to}})   ;
   pickup pencircle scaled 1.5pt ;
   draw pxy[1] ; draw pxy[2] ;
   drawarrow (cxy[1] -- cxy[2]) dashed evenly ;
   anchor_box(\MPanchor{\MPvar{from}}) ;
\stopMPpositiongraphic

\setMPpositiongraphic{chem:a}{connect}{from=chem:a,to=chem:b}

\hpos{chem:a}{A} \hskip3cm \hpos{chem:b}{B}

Applied to a chemical:

\startMPpositiongraphic{connect}
   initialize_box_pos(1, \MPpos{\MPvar{from}}) ;
   initialize_box_pos(2, \MPpos{\MPvar{to}})   ;
   pickup pencircle scaled 1.5pt ;
   drawarrow (cxy[1] {up} .. cxy[2]) dashed evenly ;
   anchor_box(\MPanchor{\MPvar{from}}) ;
\stopMPpositiongraphic

\setMPpositiongraphic{chem:1}{connect}{from=chem:1,to=chem:2}

\startchemical
   \chemical[SIX,B,R,RZ][A,\cpos{chem:1}{B},C,D,\cpos{chem:2}{E},F]
\stopchemical

Or crossing chemicals:

\startMPpositiongraphic{explain}
   initialize_box_pos(1, \MPpos{\MPvar{from}}) ;
   initialize_box_pos(2, \MPpos{\MPvar{by}})   ;
   initialize_box_pos(3, \MPpos{\MPvar{to}})   ;
   pickup pencircle scaled 1.5pt ;
   draw fullcircle scaled 1cm shifted cxy[2] ;
   drawarrow (cxy[1] .. cxy[2] .. cxy[3]) dashed evenly ;
   anchor_box(\MPanchor{\MPvar{from}}) ;
\stopMPpositiongraphic

\setMPpositiongraphic{chem:3}{explain}{from=chem:3,by=chem:4,to=chem:5}

\startchemical
   \chemical[SIX,B,R,RZ][A,\cpos{chem:3}{B},C,D,\cpos{chem:4}{E},F]
\stopchemical

\startchemical
   \chemical[SIX,B,R,RZ][A,\cpos{chem:5}{B},C,D,E,F]

Hi all,

I am new to this list, and to context also. So I apologize if my 
questions were already asked... (is there a FAQ or an archive list, 
btw?)

First as I am a mac-user, I made an enco-mac file (seems to work), 
and as I am also a french user I need to make double ponctuations ( 
";" "!" "?" ":" ) active in order to add a non breakable thin space 
before ";" "!" and "?" and a non breakable word space before ":" 
(that is the rule in french typography).

But of course I expect these characters dont remain active when 
coming back to an other language...

Any Idea ?

Hm. Can you explain this a bit more? Maybe there are better ways (|:| etc
or so);

Currently yes, but you may say:

  \def\noftabcolumns{20}

or in (pdf)etex 

  \def\noftabcolumns{3000}

Since the max number of columns is limited in tex, I should use a box stack
[slower] but i can default to a larger value for etex. What is the max
needed?

You can change the 16 in core-tbl.tex into a larger value, of patch core-tbl: 

   \tabulatewidth\!!zeropoint
   |#1X|\relax
   \dorecurse\tabulatecolumns
     {\doifundefinedelse{\@@tabbox@@\recurselevel}
        {\expandafter\newbox\csname\@@tabbox@@\recurselevel\endcsname}%

{\global\setbox\csname\@@tabbox@@\recurselevel\endcsname\box\voidb@x}}%

(add the \dorecurse after |#1X|\relax) which is a dynamic allocator. I'll
change this.

Concerning fonts (2 questions): 

I suppose taco knows more about this. Are you sure the ss is in
the font? Are you also sure that the font is in ec encoding? If
the glyphs are there and the encoding matches, things should go
ok. 

For those characters, try: texnansi, ec or il2. 

(Fonts is one the most complex things in tex, since one should
match input encoding with internal and font encoding).

I cannot duplicate this error message here. One reason can be that I catch
this situation (in which case you should update), but more likely is that
there is an error in your source (since itemize is rather old and normal
cases should not gove troubles). Are you sure that you have matching
\start-\stop's? 

If this problem is persistent, you can mail me a larger piece of failing
code (with preceding paragraphs).

Terribly sorry to say, that I've overlooked a typo. Twenty times...

Hi all,

If i use many backgrounds
without %-sign as last char of the line
the first background of the new line
not will be typeset.

\setupbackgrounds [page] [background={tabel,%
NameI,AmtI,RefI,TelefonI,LohnI,WohnI,%
NameII,AmtII,RefII,TelefonII,LohnII,WohnII,%
DKfzJa,DKfzNein,SelFaJa,SelFaNein,Halter,AmtlKz,Hubr,AntTrif,%
UrlLfd,VomBis,Nach,UrlEin,UrlBew,AbschlI,AbschlII,AbschlIII,OrtDatum}]

Is this the case where a % is needed?

I use ConTeXt beta 15.11.99

Indeed. This is one of the few places where I use the fast commalist processing routine, which does not capture spaces. Using the 'normal' one would slow down too much. When computers will be faster, I'll start using the better alternative. 

(Why do you need so many backgounds btw?)

Hallo Hans,

(the following msg is in dutch because it concerns dutch hyphenate rules)

Als ik dutch96.pat gebruik, wordt er inderdaad anders afgebroken. Echter, de
volgende regel:

Bij woordafbreking vervalt het trema: ruïne wordt ru·ine.

wordt niet gehandhaaft (bijv. 'financi"eren'). Is dit een bug? Je steekt
toch heel wat op van zo'n ntg dag.

Groetjes,

Berend. (-:

(1) deze afbreekpatronen veronderstellen 8bit fonts (vandaar de x in nlx)

(2) met obsolete in de taal files wordt bedoeld dat ze nu standaard zijn, echter, ik verkeerde in de veronderstelling dat dutch96 inmiddels de oude patronen had vervangen, wat nniet zo schijnt te zijn

Het toevoegen van 

\definefilesynonym[lang-nl][dutch96]

is de uiteindelijke oplossing, maar dan moeten de dutch96 patronen wel in de standaard distributies zitten. Daartoe moet piet het copyright aanpassen en eea met thomas esser ovcerleggen.

Dit kan inderdaad (zie ook recent maps artikel). 

Je kiest eerst het goede papierformaat:

  \stelpapierformaatin[A5][A4]

Wellicht moet je de layout nog aanpassen (de standaardinstellingen
schalen overigens netjes mee).  

De laatste run voeg je toe: 

  \stelarrangerenin[2UP,geroteerd,dubbelzijdig]

Let wel, alleen de laatste run!

Voor pdftex output zeg je: 

  \steluitvoerin[pdftex]

Handiger is echter het gebuik van texexec: 

Je stelt dan alleen het papierformaat in, en tijden het texen de rest: 

  texexec --pdf --output=2up --paper=a5a4 <filenaam>

In dat geval wordt eerst eea netjes gezet in de standaard arrangering
(dit is nodig om alle nummeringen ok te krijgen) en in een laatste
run wordt het boekje gemaakt.  

Het best is wat te experimenteren met het maps artikel bij de hand, je
kunt namelijk ook dingen doen als: 

\stelpapierformaatin[A6][A4] \stellayoutin[nx=2,ny=2]

etc etc

Haal wel even de laatste versie van context op van Erik's server cq. de
NTG site.
