Surprising changes in vers. 2012.01.11

[Steffen Wolfrum]

Hi,

testing the current beta gave me several errors and "Undefined control sequence", 

for example \showframe 
(must not be used before \starttext anymore?}

but what about
\definetolerancemethod[...][...]{...}


Is this repleaced or deleted?

Yes, these 'definers' were never party of the official interface and 
they are now all \install*method commands that take the same number of 
arguments but without []. I might (re)introduce \define variants at some 
point (probably with key/values then). This is just to make low level 
configuration more consistent. After all, some of these definers expect 
knowledge of internals.

It's a matter of font still not defined at that point: just pickup a body
font
\setupbodyfont[lmroman]
\showframe
\starttext
\input knuth\par
\stoptext

hm, i didn't know anyone was using it that way

\define\sampi{\greeksampi}

should work ok. I'll be a bot more tolerant then.

Was just about to write; I had found that too about two weeks ago. I 
don't know if it's incorrect syntax, but it had been working for many 
years, before you started rewriting TeX from scratch :-)

I made showframe work before \starttext but in general Luigi's advice 
has to be followed: if you do anything with fonts before \starttext then 
you need to load a bodyfont.

This example "hangs":


\def\nobreakspace{~}

\setupbodyfont[times,10pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=12pt]

\starttext

test~text

\stoptext

~ is \nobreakspace
\unexpanded\def~{\nobreakspace}

and you define
\def\nobreakspace{~}

i.e. an infinte loop, I suppose.

hmm ... this line "\def\nobreakspace{~}" is part of my environment file for more than 7 years now!
(can't remember if it was necessary back then ...  ;o)

indeed, and it's a bonus that ~ == nobreakspace (although I can imagine 
that we'd get rid of it) but defining other macros in terms of active 
characters is a bad idea

(in fact one can use the unicode nbsp character)

we're moving away from active characters and characters with special 
meanings so the reversal makes sense in mkiv

in fact, your definitions should have been some combination of skip and 
penalty as you cannot assume that ~ always has the same meaning (being 
activ emeans that its meaning can change)

I have a
\def\nobreakspace            {\penalty\plustenthousand\kern\interwordspace}
into  spac-gen.mkii (nov  5  2009 ...)
(and
\def~{\normalpenalty\!!tenthousand\ }
so your redefining is not a problem)

This one gives an "Undefined control sequence".
It is somewhere in that patch Wolfgang gave me some time ago:


\setupbodyfont[times,10pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=12pt]


\def\dofloatboxnormalbotstackbuilder
 {\setbox\scratchbox\vbox
    {\tempfloatwidth\wd\tempfloatbox
         \vskip5.0pt
     \ifparfloat
       \hbox{\hbox           {\box\tempfloatbox  }}%
       \dofloatboxbetweenstack
       \hbox{\locatesidefloat{\box\tempcaptionbox}}%
     \else
       \hbox{\locatefloat    {\box\tempfloatbox  }}%
       \dofloatboxbetweenstack
       \hbox{\locatetextfloat{\box\tempcaptionbox}}%
     \fi\vss}
  \getnoflines{\dimexpr\htdp\scratchbox-10\scaledpoint\relax}% get rid of inaccuracy
  \expanded{\doifinset{\v!overlay}{\floatcaptionparameter\c!location}}\bothangfloat
     {\vbox to \noflines\lineheight{\unvbox\scratchbox}}}
%% end.


\starttext

\placefigure[here]{blabla}{\vskip-9pt{\externalfigure[abbX][frame=off]}blabla}%

\stoptext

if you use that kind of low level hacks you should not harm your 
workflow by updating

all low level macros get renamed into their own namespace and are not 
supposed to be touched (unless of course one keeps also track of low 
level changes)

better is to extend the core code with options

spac-gen.mkii is used for MkII, for MkIV look into space-chr.mkiv.

I have always liked this TeX active character (~).

As information for users of X11:
setxkbmap -option nbsp:level2
(and the equivalent in "xorg.conf" or "etc/hal/fdi/policy/x11-init.fdi")
gives nbsp as shift+space.

On the subject of unicode characters,
I just discovered the ":dig" command (diagraphs)
under my favorite editor "vim"!

Follow-up:

... and what's wrong with this (only reproducible in project structure, see attached)?

chap_x.tex only has these 3 minimal lines:

\setupalign[line,block,hanging]

\setupexternalfigures[directory={./Figuren,../Figuren}]

\placefigure[force]{test}{\externalfigure[abb5][frame=off]}



Running it gives following error:

In vim, one can add this to his ~/.vimrc:

highlight NobreakSpace ctermbg=yellow
match NobreakSpace / /

(the space in / / is nbsp)

That's new... "\setfalse\raggedonelinerstate" wasn't needed with 2011.11.29, at least.
Why is it necessary now?

You don’t need it and you shouldn’t put it in your document. The problem is
the setting \setupalign[line] which breaks \externalfigure but when the conditional
\raggedonelinestate is false (can be also achieved when you set a value for
the align key in \externalfigure) it works.

indeed, that reset had to be added to the 'none' case

(but I had no time to make a new beta yet)

and the alignstate variable might become private anyway, so setting it 
in your style is not robust

And the numbers of the footnote (= the note's marker) are set smaller with current beta (when using the same settings as in December)!

How can they be addressed (and set a bit bigger again)?


[Just to be clear: I don't mean the footnote's text, nor the number in front of it. I only mean the number/marker in the text where \footnote{...} is placed]
