alpha release

alpha release

[Hans Hagen]

Hi

I've put an alpha release on the website

- no beta as mkiv needs the trunk version of luatex
- a close to complete split in mkii/mkiv
- cleaned up mkiv code
- cleaned up mkiv backend (some pending issues)
- some speedups in mkiv
- a few fixes in mkii
- updated mkiv typescripts (more to come)
- fixes in mkiv structure

this version is not replicated on the context garden as we run older 
luatex binaries there (0.45 release by the end of this month)

you can unzip this file on your locla tree but best first rename the 
tex/context/base directory and make a fresh one as otherwise you end up 
with a weird mixture (due to the definitive split in .mkii/.mkiv there 
are not that many shared .tex files any more)

on the upcoming tex live there will be an updated mkii (either this one 
or the current beta which is basically a current for mkii) and an old 
mkiv (maybe the beta) or a new one but that one will not run then with 
the luatex on texlive as it is too old; this is no big deal as you can 
either use the minimals or use the new updater in the upcoming tex live 
to fetch newer binaries (norbert and mojca showed that trickery at 
bachotek 2009)

next on the mkiv agenda is an upgrade/rework of everything related to 
page building but it might as well be postponed till we have a bit more 
access (which will happen sometime after eurotex); the first priority is 
to get the new structure related code right but as idris is already 
publising books made by mkiv it's not that bad as it sounds.

Hi Hans,

with the alpha and luatex 0.41, I get no hyphenation for Greek. The  
pattern file is loaded, so it may be a problem with luatex itself.  
Example:

\usetypescriptfile[type-gentium]
\usetypescript[gentium]
\setupbodyfont[gentium,12pt]

\starttext

{\agr \hyphenatedword{φιλοσοφία}}

\stoptext

Works with beta, not with alpha.

All best

Thomas

alpha: mkii format problems

[Peter Rolf]

Hi,

there are some minor problems with mkii.

syst-gen
syst-ext
syst-new

are loaded in 'context.mkii' (using \loadcorefile), but only the *.mkii 
versions are present. Also

supp-eps

is loaded in 'supp-tpi.mkii', but only the *.mkii version is present. No 
further (format) problems after changing that.

I couldn't test mkiv yet, as my mp special code must be adapted first.


Best wishes,  Peter

Sorry to disturb you again but I have still problems with indices,
there is no longer a problem when there is only one after a header
but when I put there two or more extra whitespace is inserted.

\starttext

\chapter{Knuth}

\input knuth

\chapter{Zapf}\index{zapf}

\input zapf

\chapter{Tufte and Weisman}\index{tufte}\index{weisman} % extra  
whitespace
%\chapter{Tufte and Weisman}\flushatnextpar{\index{tufte} 
\index{weisman}} % works

\input tufte

\input weisman

\stoptext


Another question, is the feature in floats to create a empty caption  
with
\placefigure{none}{...} now deprecated and \placefigure[none]{}{figure}
should be used or is it a bug when I get a error in combination with
interaction.

\setupinteraction[state=start]
\starttext
\placefigure{none}{figure} % error
%\placefigure[none]{}{figure} % no error
\stoptext

Wolfgang

It works for me with a slightly older beta but not with alpha
(always with and the most recent luatex, 0.42.0)

To be precise, with the older version I get: φι-λο-σο-φία  which
looks like the right hyphenation to me.

Best wishes,
Taco

since you're looking into lua code ... there is some new playground 
(unfinished of course) ... (the true arg is just for pretty printing and 
can be omitted)

context.chapter({ "label" }, "title", true)
context.chapter(function() return { "label" } end, "title", true)

context.startchapter({ title = "test" }, { more = "oeps" }, true)

context.starttext(true)
context.bTABLE(true)
for i=1,10 do
     context.bTR()
     for i=1,10 do
         context.bTD()
         context("%#2i",math.random(99))
         context.eTD()
     end
     context.eTR(true)
end
context.eTABLE(true)

context.stopchapter(true)
context.stoptext(true)

no syntax checking involved (yet), just some magic

Yep, this is the right hyphenation. Works now with latest alpha;  
thanks Hans and Taco!

no, i simply added a final 'else' here. and no tests yet... still trying 
to understand the new code. i'm currently not in 'lua mode' and the

Nice feature to shorten code when some data comes from a lua table but  
it did not work
when used in the lua environment, the code for the table appears only  
on the terminal.

\starttext

some text

\startluacode

context.bTABLE(true)
for i=1,10 do
    context.bTR()
    for i=1,10 do
        context.bTD()
        context("%#2i",math.random(99))
        context.eTD()
    end
    context.eTR(true)
end
context.eTABLE(true)

\stopluacode

\stoptext

indeed, and there's also some problem with complex nesting which i kind 
of solved (i'l do a talk about this at the context meeting)

(i'll make a new version that you can pick up from the ftp)

Re: alpha release

[Alan BRASLAU]

Hi experts,

Would someone please provide a basic recipe to correctly install the new alpha 
release locally.  I would like to test the new alpha code but am a bit 
confused as to what exactly to install and how.


1. "on the website", is this indeed
	http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/current/cont-tmf.zip
as
	http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-3.htm
currently lists as (not available)?

Should this be unzipped under /usr/local/context.alpha/tex/texmf-context
for example?


2. "no beta as mkiv needs the trunk version of luatex"
Does this mean
	http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/download/frsrelease/350/1332/luatex-
snapshot-0.42.0.tar.bz2
to be compiled and then somehow installed into the local tree.

>From luatex-snapshot-0.42.0/INSTALL

> Post-compilation installation should be a simple matter
> of copying the executable to a normal place for web2c
> binaries and generating the desired formats.
> 
> You may want to install the executable under the names

I currently work with the contextgarden minimals.
Under the minimals, these are located at
	tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/texlua
	tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/texluac
on my machine.


Sorry for such basic questions.

Thanks

Alan

True. Now you can either use beta or current and it should give you
the latest functionality for both ConTeXt and LuaTeX (2009.07.17,
0.42.0).

Alpha has disappeared in the meantime.

Thanks.
I can do that!

-> ConTeXt  ver: 2009.06.14 21:01 MKIV  fmt: 2009.7.19  int: english/english
-> this is luatex, version beta-0.42.0-2009071807

OK

However, I was expecting

\usetypescript[postscript]
\starttext
default: $A = \pi r^2$
\switchtobodyfont[postscript]
postscript: $A = \pi r^2$
\stoptext

at least to be fixed. Not yet...

I'll continue other tests (and keep reading the mailing list).

Alan

I'm sorry, I forgot to uncomment a line, so there's actually a newer
version. By the time when you replied this has been fixed, but you
have probably synced earlier.

But it's not fixed in 2009.07.17 either, so updating won't help too much.
