All,
What is the state of the math module? And is there more explanation yet on
how to use it? The last documentation was rather brief. I am wondering how
things are progressing with this work.

Currently I'm documenting and debugging my private version as well as
having some talks with M. Downes (Michael is working on a new release
for the latex version). Expect a version with better docu somewhere
next week, and a large bugfix release in two weeks or so.
greetings, taco

Dear list members,
It seems that ConTeXt is caught in an infinite loop when processing
the following text:
\usemodule[math]
\steluitvoerin[pdftex]
\starttekst
\startformule
-y_i/\beta_i
\stopformule

Already included, through amsmath's \pmb command.

Wouldn't it be nice if Context's math module would also support
poor man's boldmath like LaTeX's bm package?
I have no idea how hard it would be to make that package more
generic, I'm just asking.

You'd better fetch a new one anyway, since the example compiles OK
with my local version. I just uploaded a new one:
http://www.cybercomm.nl/~bittext/temp/m-math.zip
But \boldmath needs new aliases for the fonts that are not in the
current fontdef files. For LucidaBright, add the following after
the \usemodule line:
\definefontsynonym [ExtraMathRoman] [LucidaBright-Demi]
\definefontsynonym [ExtraMathExtension] [LucidaNewMath-Extension]
\definefontsynonym [ExtraMathItalic][LucidaNewMath-AltDemiItalic]
\definefontsynonym [ExtraMathSymbol][LucidaNewMath-Symbol-Demi]
\definefontsynonym [ExtraMathAlpha] [LucidaNewMath-Arrows-Demi]
Sytse> 2. it seems that the compiler is

Obviously I fixed that somewhere in the last weeks (at least I assume
such). If the problem stays, try downloading a new context distrib.

I have the following problems with the math module:
1. \boldmath is not producing boldface characters (at least not with lucida bright)
2. it seems that the compiler is caught in an infinite loop when trying to
compile \max
Any hints?

Sample program that doesn't work:
\starttekst
\steluitvoerin[pdftex]
\usemodule[math] % works without this line
\startformule
z=\max(x,y)
\stopformule
\stoptekst

Ah, you mean the *beta* version. It compiles now with
ConTeXt ver: 1999.12.21. We are really up to date now.
Thanks!

You just need the very latest context. Some macros were
added to the core precisely for the math module.
