Math Euler and mp-graph

Hello, Hans, all,

I'm trying to finalise my euler-math typescripts and type encodings. It
seems to work everywhere, except in metapost mode. It's a mystery. My
latest math-eul and type-eul are attached, (play along at home! put them
in your tex/context/third directory! Now with eulerbold!) and when the
following is run with them, I don't get any decimals in the numerical labels.

\usemodule [graph]

\startMPenvironment%[global]
\usetypescriptfile[type-eul]
\usetypescript[eul]
\setupbodyfont[eul,10pt]
\stopMPenvironment

\starttext

\startMPcode
draw begingraph(100mm,50mm);
  setcoords(linear,log);
  setrange(0,0.01,2,1.0);
  autogrid(itick.bot,itick.lft) withcolor .75white ;
  endgraph;
\stopMPcode


\stoptext

...I've tried the same code with math times and computer modern, and they
work fine. Does anyone have a clue why metapost/metafun would be
inserting something other than a normal mathperiod? That's the only guess
I have as to where it might be happening. I spent a morning meditating on
mp-form, mp-grph, and the like, but did not reach enlightenment.

Can anyone else using m-graph confirm this behaviour?

Cheers,
adam

Hi Adam,

I tried the two files contained in the zip archive.
They work fine but it seems that some characters in mathmode are 
missing such as:

\geq
\ge
\leq
\le
:= (which is actually ":" followed by "=" but, with the two files you 
sent us, it appears as ".=" on the typeset file)
\backslash (it produces "n" on the typeset file)

I woudn't say that this list is exhaustive...
However with the previous versions of the files "zeuler" everything 
seems to work fine.
I tried your files on the files "math-knuth.tex", "math-stein.tex", 
"math-show.tex" and "math-functions.tex" which I send you previously.

Best regards: OK

Part of the problem is that I have to partially rebuild these files due
to an accident. ahem.

But I think the main issue here is that you're not finding the new math-
eul.tex file that is intended to over-ride the existing math-eul. Did you
do a 'sudo texhash'? does 'kpsewhich math-eul' actually find the new
math-eul or the old one (perhaps move/rename the old one if so...)

Cheers,
adam

Hi Adam,

Indeed I tested again your files after renaming the math-eul.tex file 
which already existed among the usual ConTeXt files, and did also "sudo 
texhash".
But the missing characters I mentioned are still missing. The strange 
fact is that your previous files "*-zeul.*" do not present this feature.

Best regards: OK
