Units and XML

Units and XML

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello,

Has anyone come up with a sense making way of coding units in XML and
mapping them onto ConTeXt's 'units' module ... makes a knot in my brain ...

Thnaks, Joh

there is a manual on the website ... physml

the old module:

\usemodule[physml]

the new one (newmml):

\usemodule[newmmu]

as in:

\usemodule[newmmu]

\starttext

Quick and dirty in||line units:

\startbuffer
<phys>
  <cn> 10 </cn>
  <cu> <Newton/> <Square/> <Meter/> <Per/> <Sec/> </cu>
</phys>
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer \processXMLbuffer

A more \MATHML||like unit application:

\startbuffer
<phys> <apply> <unit/>
  <cn> 10 </cn>
  <csymbol> <Square/> <Meter/> <Per/> <Sec/> </csymbol>
</apply> </phys>
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer \processXMLbuffer

A bit more compact:

\startbuffer
<phys> <apply> <unit/>
  <cn> 10 </cn>
  <cu> <Square/> <Meter/> <Per/> <Sec/> </cu>
</apply> </phys>
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer \processXMLbuffer

A bit more complicated:

\startbuffer
<phys> <apply> <unit/>
  <apply> <divide/> <ci> a </ci> <cn> 10 </cn> </apply>
  <cu> <Square/> <Meter/> <Per/> <Sec/> </cu>
</apply> </phys>
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer \processXMLbuffer

An alternative (equivalent) for \type {</cu>}:

\startbuffer
<phys> <apply> <unit/>
  <cn> 10 </cn> <cunseq> <Square/> <Meter/> <Per/> <Sec/> </cunseq>
</apply> </phys>
\stopbuffer

\typebuffer \processXMLbuffer

\stoptext

<phys><apply><unit/><cn>4</cn><csymbol><Degrees/><Celsius/></csymbol></apply></phys>

works with physml, but not with newmmu.

Geee, looks like I'm starting to find things in the guts of this ;0)

P.S.: What's your favorite beer/drink?

Re: Units and XML

Something else:
How to define a custom unit (basepairs, bp) with physml/units?

something

\unit [Basepairs]  {bp}  {Base Pairs}

\defineXMLsingular [Basepairs]     {\handlePMLunit\Basepairs}

newmmu is now newpml and works with newmml (the old and new methods 
cannot be used mixed because they use completely different internals 
[direct xml handling using stacks versus xml->tex expansion]

system          : module newpml not found
system          : module newmml not found
system          : module newcml not found

Is the answer to '\usemodule[newpml,newmml,newcml]'. What am I doing wrong?

newcml is in the making (not that hard, will do that asap) 

the other x-new* modules will be in the new current i'll upload (i saw that i'd forgotten to included them)

Hans, 

Since you seem to be working on this: when using inline physml I noticed
that 
<phys><apply><unit/><cn>1</cn><csymbol><Micro/><Gram/><Per/><Milli/><Liter/></csymbol></apply></phys>
when used in a figure caption formated like this:
\setupcaptions[style=small,width=\textwidth]

does not scale properly - it remains at 12pt, since
\setupbodyfont[12pt,modern].

small == \tfx 

what you need is a full switch: style=smallbodyfont (or as command \smallbodyfont) 

... wikify ...

\setupcaptions[style=smallbodyfont,width=\textwidth]
did it. Thanks.

> ... wikify ...
Thesis first than this ;0)

How would I add singlespacedness to the command above?

Serves me right ... coming up with my own lingo ... my document is doubly
spaced (\setupinterlinespace[line=2\bodyfontsize]) and I was trying to get
the float captions singly spaced. Have stuffed commands
like '\setupinterlinespace[small]' (which I believe is the ConTeXt default)
pretty much anywhere I can think of
into '\setupcaptions[style=smallbodyfont,width=\textwidth]', but can't
figure it out. Was hoping you could toss me another bone ...
