beta

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

I uploaded a beta. Not that many fixes (if someone can collect structure 
related bugs ...), only a few.

For those who keep an eye on the source ... i'm rewriting ppchtex and it 
will be integral part of the core of mkiv (so that we have chemistry on 
board). It's not yet finished but i'm getting there.

Hans

Let me raise several issues about luatex-plain.

First, newly released beta breaks luatex-plain,
because "luat-sto.lua" is not included in luatex-fonts.lua.
Without this, luatex-plain fails when trying to define
"storage.shared.attributes_last_private".

Secondly, "name:" method of font searching does not work.
The reason is version mismatch between font-dum.lua and
luatex-fonts-names.lua.  The former requires "data.version == 1.07",
while the latter's version is 1.08, if it is generated with current beta.

Thirdly, some fonts have extension "TTF" rather than "ttf",
so that function "resolvers.find_file" fails while finding,
for example, gentium font (filename: GenR102.TTF).
Here is my patch:

- return kpse.find_file(name,(kind and kind ~= "" and (remapper[kind]
or kind)) or "tex")
+ return kpse.find_file(name,(kind and kind ~= "" and
(remapper[string.lower(kind)] or kind)) or "tex")

Lastly, current beta does not support subfonts contained in
TTC (truetype collection).  TTC fonts are becoming more and more
difficult to find, but we still can find them especially in CJK world.
It's quite simple to support them:
just commenting out three lines from font-dum.lua

-- function fonts.define.get_specification(str)
--     return "", str, "", ":", str
-- end

Thank you for your great work, as always.

OK, here is a collection of some assorted bugs. Most of them have been  
posted several times. Of course, everybody will have their own feeling  
of what is more and what is less urgent, but I will just add a few  
words about my own situation:

1. bib-module

\usemodule[bib]

\setuppublications
[refcommand=num,
numbering=yes]

\startpublication[k=bertellihecataeus,t=incollection,
a={{Bertelli}},y=2001,
n=1,s=Ber01]
\artauthor[]{Lucio}[L.]{}{Bertelli}
\pubyear{2001}
\arttitle{Hecataeus: From Genealogy to Historiography}
\editor[]{Nino}[N.]{}{Luraghi}
\crossref{luraghicraft}
\pages{67--94}
\pages{67--94}
\pubname{Oxford University Press}
\stoppublication

\startpublication[k=luraghihistorian,t=book,
a={{Luraghi}},y=2001,
n=2,s=Lur01a]
\editor[]{Nino}[N.]{}{Luraghi}
\pubyear{2001\maybeyear{a}}
\title{The Historian's Craft in the Age of Herodotus}
\city{Oxford}
\pubname{Oxford UP}
\stoppublication

\starttext

Citation: \cite[bertellihecataeus]

List:

\placepublications[criterium=all]

\stoptext

Taco's bib module does not work with the current beta. For me, this is  
a showstopper, I will have to give up on mkiv as long as this does not  
work.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

2. Section numbers in markings are duplicated

\setuphead
[section]
[page=yes,
style=normal]

\setupuserpagenumber[state=start,way=bysection]

\setupfootertexts[{\getmarking[sectionnumber]} – \userpagenumber]

\starttext

\section{One}

\input tufte

\page

\input linden

\section{Two}

\input bryson

\page

\input davis

\stoptext

Urgency=high, I use these markings in lots of documents.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

3. trep and tlig features don't work in node mode

\definefontfeature
   [mytest]
   [mode=node,script=latn,trep=yes,tlig=yes,kern=yes]

\starttypescript[serif][Test]
\definefontsynonym[Serif][name:texgyretermesregular][features=mytest]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[Test]
\definetypeface[Test][rm][serif][Test][default][features=mytest]
\stoptypescript

\usetypescript[Test]
\setupbodyfont[Test,12pt]

\starttext

fine's flops: 1 -- 2 --- 3

\stoptext

priority: medium for me (since it can be worked around, but still  
needs fixing)


%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

4. Spaces, esp. after periods

\font\one=cmr10
\font\two=file:texgyrepagella-regular

\bgroup

A A A

\primitive\sfcode`A=2000

A A A

\egroup

\bgroup\one

A A A

\primitive\sfcode`A=2000

A A A

\egroup

\bgroup\two

A A A

\primitive\sfcode`A=2000

A A A

\egroup

\bye


This test file has been given by Wolfgang Schuster a few days ago. It  
shows a problem that is especially annoying after periods because it  
disrupts frenchspacing/nonfrenchspacing. For me, very high priority  
because the quality of the output is severely reduced (with this bug,  
it would be impossible to typeset a book for publication with ConTeXt  
mkiv right now).

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

5. Labels

\definelabel[SlideNumber][headstyle=normal,way=bytext]

\starttext

\incrementSlideNumber \nextSlideNumber

\stoptext

Fails in current beta. For me, urgency=medium.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

6. Cross-references

\starttext

\startitemize[n]

\item[one] One

\item[two] Two

\item[three] Three

\stopitemize

As we can see in item \in[one] and \in[three].

\stoptext

Urgency=medium

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

7. Line breaks between quotation marks:

\setuplayout[width=3cm]

\starttext

\quotation{This is a \quote{test.}}

\stoptext

Urgency: low, but non-nil.

OK, this should be enough for the time being. For almost two weeks, I  
haven't been able to connect to the supelec website to bring my luatex  
to the latest version; is this a problem on my end, or is access to  
the svn repositories currently disabled?

Would be nice to hear about these bugs; some of the have been posted  
several times, but we never heard back about them.

All best

Thomas

I add my vote for this, too.
(however, I do remember reading some discussion related to this around the 
beginning of April...)

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Also, \placeindex (\placeregister in general) is broken. However, I have been 
unable yet to produce a "minimal" example as my simple tests all work 
correctly!
In a big project (book with many references, etc.), under mkiv I get (compiles 
fine under mkii):

I feel sorry for you, but I do not know what to do about it anymore.

Yes, in your recent mail (http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20090514.080826.d48ffa7a.en.html

Taco, hi,
could you please include a feature that allows listing the set of pages that
an item was cited on, I'm sure this is present in LaTeX.

I just tried commenting out
%\placeindex
and friends in my current book project
and compiled under mkiv.
I wish to report that the bib module gives empty references []
and a new first page of numbers appears
1 2 3 4 ...
(must be the lost reference numbers)

LuaTeX gives lots of warning messages, such as:
\placepublications[criterium=all]                                        
                                       LuaTeX warning (ext4): destination with 
the same identifier (name{Friedel1922}) has been already used, duplicate 
ignored

Additionally, to be able to access TTC subfonts with "name:" method,
a patch should be inserted into font-dum.lua as follows:

         if found then
             local filename, is_sub = found[3], found[4]
+	    if is_sub then is_sub = found[2] end
             return filename, is_sub
         else

As I can't even get the core functionality working, this is a very
bad moment for feature requests, but I'll keep this in mind while
designing the new module.

hm, i gave it another try ... also in next beta ... is  bit tricky as 
this is a feature that does not fall in some script/lang category (i'd 
put it in default (which works) but we need more

in node mode they are implemented by faking real features (a mechanism 
that was somewhat extended recently to support anum and pnum for arabic
