typing questions

[Peter Münster]

Hello,
here a few questions about typing:

- Is there a module for pretty-printing C-code?

- How could I change the tabulator-width?

- First tab is only 7 spaces, the other 8, why?

- How could I embed ConTeXt macros?

- Where does the vertical space in \framed come from?

Some of these questions are illustrated in the following example:

\starttext
\starttyping
void test()
{
12345678 the first characters of the next lines are tabulations
	int i;
	for(i = 0; i < 10; i++)
		do_something();
1234567812345678
Here I would like to \embed{ some context-code }
}
\stoptyping

\framed[align=lohi,
  top=\vskip-1.8\baselineskip,bottom=\vskip-0.8\baselineskip]{%
\starttyping
Why do we need special top and bottom options?
type type type
type type type
\stoptyping
}
\stoptext

Thanks in advance for any help!
Cheers, Peter

None that I know of, if anybody has a solution, I am
interested myself as well

   \chardef\spacespertab=1 % \t will now become *two* spaces,
                           % default is 7, making 8 spaces

Looks like a bug, try this patch:

   \def\doprocesstabskipline#1%
     {\bgroup
      \scratchcounter0 % TH: was \plusone
      \dodoprocesstabskipline#1\relax
      \egroup}

> - How could I embed ConTeXt macros?

   \setuptyping[option=commands] % enable commands

   \starttyping
   Here I would like to /BTEX \italic{some context-code} /ETEX
   \stoptyping

 From a bug in \startpacked. Sorry, I don't know how to fix
that without breaking other stuff.

Greetings,

Taco

I wrote one a while ago.  It's not great, but it works quite well.  It
even processes preprocessor directives correctly, albeit a bit
hackishly.  It's not too fun working with the verbatim code, though.
It's a bit restrictive in what can be done.

Anyway, I've attached it here.  Perhaps we can make something standard
of it?,

Hello,
thanks, Taco. Will this patch be integrated in the next ConTeXt version?

Does some other person know, how to fix this?
