t-bib - publicationlist space between [111] and items // luatex // error for \currentdate [y, -, mm, -, dd]

[Tobias Burnus]

Hello,

I use \setuppublications[numbering=yes,refcommand=num] and have more
than 99 references. Thus in the reference list the "]" of "[111]"
overlaps with the entry behind.

I tried \setuppublicationlist with samplesize= and with
distance=/width=, but this did not help.

Any idea how to solve this (best would be of cause automatically).

I'm now trying to get LuaTeX running with a TeXLive2007 system and the
current cont-tmf.zip.

I did:
- Compiled luatex and installed luatex
- Created symbolic link from texluac to luatex
- Set TEXMFCNF=<dir> to the directory which contains texmf.cnf

Questions and problems:

a) Where do I find mtxrun ? I found ./scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua, but
   lua ./scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua
gives the error message:

lua: ./scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua:3949: attempt to index global
'lua' (a nil value)

The line is:
if lua.bytecode then -- from 0 upwards


b) If I run:
   texmfstart texexec --make --lua
the metafun.mem is nicely generated but cont-* is not:
LuaTools | version 1.1.1 - 2006+ - PRAGMA ADE / CONTEXT
LuaTools | loading /home/tob/texmf/texmf.cnf
LuaTools | preparing configuration in /home/tob/luatex-cache/

LuaTools |
LuaTools | runtime: 0.3 seconds
TeXExec | generating tex format cont-nl
Error in lua file loading: ?:0: attempt to index global 'instance' (a
nil value)


Which seems to be the same error as in (a).

Since the update of cont-tmf.zip, I get an error (pdfetex) for:

\currentdate [y,-,mm,-,dd]
\bye

! Missing number, treated as zero.
<to be read again>
                   {
\convertnumber ... \s!default \fi \fi \endcsname {
                                                  \number #2}

Any idea what goes wrong here?

Tobias

This was not enough for me, I also had to set TEXMF and TEXFORMATS. It
seems to me, that texmf.cnf is not read by luatex, even if TEXMFCNF is set.
(I also made a link for texlua.)

I just made a symbolic link:
ln -s .../scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua .../bin/mtxrun
(with all other lua-scripts too)

You can look into my spec-file in
http://pmrb.free.fr/texlive/texlive.nosrc.rpm to see what I needed to do to
get MKIV running on TL-2007 (or better: TL-trunk)

Confirmation: here too...

Only answering this because I have to run:

   \setuppublicationlist[width=3in]

works for me (t-bib says it is 2006.12.07)
