how to make url's active

Hi all,

How I can type URL's in ConTeXt and make them active?

Greetings,

Hai Grzesiek,

> How I can type URL's in ConTeXt and make them active?

First you need an interactive document:

	\setupinteraction[state=start]

Second, define your URL's with:

	\useURL
		[contextsupport]
		[http://www.pragma-ade.nl]

(this command has 2 more options, see manual or code).

Thirdly, use the URL's as follows:

	The \ConTeXt\ support site is \from[contextsupport].

Groetjes,

Berend. (-:

After that become I a error:

What can I do with them?

Hmm, not sure. This file works for me:

--------------------------
% interface=en output=pdftex

\setupinteraction[state=start]
\useURL[contextsupport] [http://www.pragma-ade.nl]

\starttext
The \ConTeXt\ support site is \from[contextsupport].

\stoptext
--------------------------

I'm using the latest context, pdfetex (Web2C 7.3.1) 3.14159-0.13d-2.1 (from
teTeX 1.0). Maybe try to upgrade?

Hm. Looks like the active polish / is spoilong things. I'll have a look at
it. Using the / as active character is dangerous anyway, since it also
influences filenames! I have been playing with making it robust but i've
forgotten to finish it.

Quick fix: in core-ref.tex change: 

\def\gebruikURL%
  {\bgroup
   \catcode`\#=12\catcode`\%=12\catcode`\/=12
   \catcode`\_=12\catcode`\~=12
   \dodoubleempty\dogebruikURL}

and regenerate a format.

Thank you, it's working now.

BTW. When I try to typesetting docu, the error is coming:

loading        : Context Multilingual Macros / System
) (mult-con.tex
loading        : Context Multilingual Macros / Constants

                   [

?

and this is independent from preloaded (or not) polish language into format
files.

The doc files need setupb.tex, the more abstract definition of he commands.
I put the latest doc at the beta page too, since it has to be in tune with
the beta. (In the end all low level commands will be english). So, in order
to process documentation of the beta's you need the latest doc files.
Technically, these definitions expand to the user current interface, but
the doc is english anyway.

I tend to say that the patterns should set " to its expected catcode, but
since this will probably not be done, I've added some restore myself in
advance to loading the patterns.

This brings me to another question: how is " and / expected to behave in
math mode? 

Btw, I now let "" => " and // => /

Hallo Hans,

In Latex, I get get:
$"a$ -> $"a$
$/$ -> $/$   with english

and $"a$ -> $ä$ with german.sty
I don't know whether this makes sense. (I never needed " in mathmode,
but it would be a fast way to get \ddot r = \frac{\partial^2 r}{\patial t^2} ;-)

Ok, so I suggest to ignore " and / in math mode, since, when one wants some
text in math, an \hbox is used, which isn't mathmode anyway.
