PracTeX Journal Number 2 out

[Adam Lindsay]

Hey all,

The second issue of the beginner-oriented PracTeX Journal is out now:

 <http://tug.org/pracjourn/>

There are a couple ConTeXt font articles, Steve Peter's usual column on
ConTeXt editing environments, and other interesting items across the TeX
spectrum, including a nice introduction to XML for TeXers.

(concerning the journal ... don't hesitate to write !)

We would need the OK from the authors because of copyright.

Thanks to the authors for their permission to mirror the nice
articles. I have added a link to

I agree that they should be archived, (I'm susceptible to bit-rot like
everyone else), but boy, some of them feel really out-of-date already! I
retract any disparaging comments (don't think I made many) I might have
made about the state of ConTeXt's docs. :)

that;s the drawback of electronic publishing, but i like the idea of a archive 
since it also show the state of context at a certain time.
