I would be very happy if I could make a Bibliography with several
sections. (This wish has been expressed on this list before and I just
want to add my vote to it.)

I looked again at what features I would need added to the bibliography and it's mainly two things: 1) Possibility to have several sections in the bibliography; 2) and advanced ordering of it. Use case: What my faculty wants from me (and it's not an uncommon request AFAIK) is to have the bibliography at the end of the thesis divided into sections: * books (* books with more then one author) * chapters from reviews, collections etc. * articles * laws, legal acts, conventions etc. * internet And then inside every section they want the entries to be alphabetically ordered by surnames of the authors or editors (as applicable).

Hi David,
For what it is worth, I have done side by side Italian-English texts
in columns with the help of paragraphs. I wanted the Italian original
slanted. So In the preamble I have
\defineparagraphs[mypar] [n=2,distance=1em]
\setupparagraphs[mypar][1][style=slanted]
\setupparagraphs[mypar][2][style=normal]
In the text:
\startmypar
Some text in language Italian, slanted.
\mypar
The text translated in English, regular.
\stopmypar
etc.
So your example could be done as follows
\defineparagraphs[mypar] [n=3,distance=1em]%or some other distance
\setupparagraphs[mypar][1][style=slanted]%or
\setupparagraphs[mypar][2][style=normal]
\setupparagraphs[mypar][3][style=normal]
\starttext
This is a side by side translation in columns.
\startmypar
Original Language
\mypar
First Translation
\mypar
Second Translation
\stopmypar
\startmypar
Bla bla bla \dots
\mypar
Blu blu blu \dots
\mypar
Ble ble ble \dots
\stopmypar
\stoptext
Maybe you could teach me how to do side by side translations on opposite pages.
Regards,
Robert Blackstone

I once tried to list the different points missing regarding the french language support and think of a way to integrate them as a module for ConTeXt, as frenchb [1] does for LaTeX.

The module is just for people like Sebastien, who like to find the same things as in the frenchb LaTeX package. At some point, someone should decide, what is triggered by \mainlanguage[fr] and what is provided by such french-module. For me, "\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]" is the border case. >>> 2. `double punctuation' (: ; ! ?) is made active > > remark: in mkiv not active using active chars as we have better mechanisms Of course, the module is for mkiv and uses \setcharacterspacing.

I believe that "No" means that \primo, \secundo, ... and \No, \Nos, ... make absolutely NO sense in mkiv, nor does \degre as we have unicode input. Nothing, of course, prevents a user from defining \degre, etc. if he/she prefers to write input in this way. (I suppose that one could take a similar position on other, traditional TeX definitions like \ldots and many others...)

Most of the things what it does you can do with ConTeXt much more easily expect (i think) one thing: placing more than one picture in a given width with automatic rescaling of the images so all images in one row have the same height. This feature is really handy for me. Maybe there is something in ConTeXt which does the same and i´m missing something? best regards Bernhard ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 109+ messages in thread

This module could be significantly developped, in particular though abstraction of node placement, color, etc. One could go further, drawing tree diagrams. Here, I am thinking about some of the possibilities of pgf/TiKz. Something probably already exists in Metapost, but it would be nice to have such tools native in ConTeXt. pgf/TiKz is a nice package, and I like its support for ConTeXt. However, a simpler, cleaner interface and syntax can be achieved natively in ConTeXt and Metapost... Going a bit further, I suppose that the same logic could be applied to drawing schematic diagrams for electronics. And why not abstract this further? One could then flexibly logically place (and connect) containers of any sort. I use collectors and columnsetspan to put together posters (A0). This could be made easier.

I've only used BibTeX a few times, and never BibLaTeX (because I'd already switched to ConTeXT), but it's inflexibility makes it unworkable. Ideally ConTeXt could provide its general sensible-ness (and Lua power) to do for bibliographies what it has already done for TeX. CSL support and something similar to string.format('%s. (%s). %s.', author, year, title) or something just as easy for defining a new output style would be the two features most desired. If MLA were finally implemented (or implementable) for \cite{} in TeX, I would be a very happy masters student indeed ;) (BibLaTeX's MLA did not work for me in LyX, which is about as far as I'm going to go into LaTeX). Until then I'll just use the MLA setup environment from the ConTeXt wiki and input my refs by hand.

First of all, Context is great and I love it. I think I miss the geometry package of the latex. It makes setting margins very easy. I think setting margins (left, right, top and bottom) could be easier in Context. I am glad that tikz has started working well with context. That is a big relief. I hope (and this perhaps has nothing to do with the brilliant Context development team) is that journals start accepting Context files. While I use context for my personal and class notes, for articles I am still forced to go to latex because journals do not accept context files.

One has to use something other than ConTeXt as an input language (it can translate LaTeX input but so far no ConTeXt; I use Markdown but reStructuredText and HTML are also available. The standalone LaTeX files generated (meaning they include the header setup) compile fine, at least the ones I've tested (ConTeXt standalone seems to require Mk.II). I must say I'm very impressed with this software. It turned all of my ""s into \quotation{}, for instance, and it knows to do {\it italics} rather than \it{italics}. One could also generate a Word document (via OpenOffice.org ODT format output). Not to mention HTML.

ConTeXt use a more sofisticated page model than LaTeX, you have not only left and right margin but also left/right edges and each page consists of three separate layer, one for the paper, on for the page and on top the layer for the text, headers, footers and margin texts.

If just one of you was unable to continue your excellent work, FAR too much of the world knowledge of ConTeXt would simply be gone, and that's not a good situation.

I haven't really missed any particular feature, since each time I wanted to do something less elementary, I found out that the feature is actually waiting there, and I have just to be a little bit patient and look in the manuals or on th wiki. And if I am not patient (that is most of the time…) some wizards on the list are so patient and so wise that they know how to do things. Now, that said, I do all my presentations with ConTeXt, and there is one thing which should be added for more ease of use: a stepwise procedure which can do better than the RawSteps module I use (see http://wiki.contextgarden.net/RawSteps), and which would also work with the simpleslides modules set up by Thomas A. Schmitz and Aditya Mahajan. Another problem one may encounter is that, as far as I know, the Mathematics journals do not accept yet a paper written in ConTeXt. So at some point, when submitting the source file of the paper, one has to « translate » ConTeXt commands into plain-TeX or LaTeX. I wish I had a script, for instance go-back-2-latex.lua (or any other language) which would take as input the file my-beautiful-article.tex written in ConTeXt and turn it to my-ugly-article.in-latex.tex. Actually I do this manually and, despite being time consuming, I prefer to write in ConTeXt and to translate my paper into LaTeX at the very last step.

While TeX has been very strong at typesetting math traditionally its rivals are closing up and even surpassing TeX in this area partly. However, none of today's tools (including TeX) seem to be capable of laying out (2D) formulas fully automatically with the finest typographic results from their mathematical meaning alone. For example, in TeX I always find myself tweaking the spacing of glyphs or adjusting the size of brackets (among other things) once a formula becomes a little more involved. If TeX could make these decisions on its own it would help tremendously. Of course, there's a limit to what extent visual aesthetics can be cast into algorithms ultimately but I do think that TeX can be improved significantly in this direction. I think what will help most is teaching TeX to not only think in terms of boxes but work with the actual glyph shapes. For example, one could tackle the problem of delimiter sizes in the following way. First TeX needs to keep track of how deeply a given pair of delimiters is nested. This directly sets a certain minimal size if one wants nested brackets to increase in size towards the outside. Next TeX typesets all the material enclosed by the delimiters in question and inspects how the ink is actually spread out on paper. Based on knowledge about various features of the subformula's actual shape TeX can now make an informed decision about the surrounding delimiters. It is clear that for a visually pleasing result this decision will have to be different depending on whether the ink is, say, concentrated in one spot predominantly or smeared out over a long narrow band. So far TeX has only examined the total height of this ink distribution which usually leads to excessively large delimiters. If one wants to quote a metaphor from optics TeX could analyze how much the ink distribution resembles an hourglass shaped light beam travelling back and forth between two facing round mirrors (i.e., the delimiters). One could then demand that the brackets' size is chosen such that a certain fraction of the enclosed ink is contained in the beam profile. An approach based on glyph shapes could also help TeX to decide on how it places exponents. At the moment one has to decide manually whether an exponential is typeset as e^{\dots} or exp(\dots). Many more cases come to mind. However, as far as I recall from conversations with Taco and others there are already some efforts underway to extend TeX's math skills :-) 2. I'd love to see better support for figures within formulas (in ConTeXt). I often use diagrammatic notation and find it difficult to align diagrams with the rest of the formula. For example, I'm missing a way to specify the math axis from within MetaPost code. That is, I'd like to mark an invisible point in the drawing which will later be aligned with the formula's math axis automatically. 3. I'd very much like to second Alan's suggestion to provide containers for text to flow in and out! Perhaps one could even go further and root ConTeXt entire page model in such an approach. After all, it's just text flowing in and out of pages together with fixed containers for headers and footers. This might also provide a consistent yet flexible foundation for all things columns. While I'm at it (and because this is a wish list) having configurable page templates as in XSL-FO or Docscape would also be very nice :-) Oliver ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 109+ messages in thread

If things where so easy in TeX we won’t have the problems with text in columns etc. as we currently have. Changing the line distance in the normal text can influence also header and footer texts and frames are not so easy too because once a text is typeset by TeX the linebreaks are fixed and you can't change them.

An implementation of Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm[1] and automatic, script based font switching, Unicode Script Property[2]. Editing mixed RTL and LTR text is mess already, adding to the mix LTR TeX commands for every directionally switch makes it a nightmare. I ended up doing my first pass without any directional commands at all then using some regular expressions to post process the text, but this is no fun and needs manual review not to mention that post editing that text still a nightmare. I've attempted to write the BiDi implementation several times myself, by never managed to actually allocate enough time for it. ConTeXt already has a BiDi implantation (typo-mir.{lua,mkiv}), but I gave up using it because it is buggy and can be hardly used for any thing.

That is a bit beyond me... I am guessing this means that there is now a facility whereby certain commands could be instrumented? In the future? What I was asking for was a general "switch" that could turn on parameter error checking for all commands.

Indeed I miss a huge documentation. A very good one is the documentation for Tikz : starts with case- studies then encyclopaedic définitions. Maybe a less supra-human task : a site with example as texample (always for tikz) : http://www.texample.net/ . We learn a lot seeing the way others do.

It would be great if there were a ConTeXt module that supported GraphXML or another XML graph format, so that users could draw graphs using GUI tools and then let the module typeset the graphs in MetaPost. I imagine the setups for the module would allow users to pass layout hints and styles to the layout engine.

Loading it after doesn't have any influence. It would be really nice if there was some more elegant way to use UTF-8 in bookmarks than \input spec-tst.mkii.
