synonyms with MKIV

synonyms with MKIV

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

I get unexpected output with this test-file:

% engine=luatex
\definesynonyms[test][tests]
\test{testOne}{first test}
\test{testTwo}{second test}
\starttext
\testOne
\placelistoftests
\stoptext

I would expect:

testOne
testOne     first test

but I get:

testOne
test        testOne

(Perhaps a problem with parameter numbers #1, #2 etc. ?)

Cheers, Peter

Hi Peter,

this is a bug in the mkiv sorting macros, I posted a similiar message
a few days ago but got no answer.

\def\mksavesortedlistentry#1#2#3#4% class key entry meaning
 
{\immediatewriteutilitytua{ti(js['#1'],{'e','#2',\!!bs#3\!!es,\!!bs#4\!!es})}}

seems to work

this line should be

\def\mksavesortedlistentry#1#2#3#4% class key entry meaning
  {\immediatewriteutilitytua{table.insert(js['#1'],{'e','#1',\!!bs#2\!!es,\!!bs#3\!!es})}}

but there is also a big in core-syn.lua

the following works for me, the order is "key, value" and not "value, key".

I patched this at the moment in my format files and the output of
the synonym table is now correct :-)

function job.loadsortedlist(class)
    if job.sortedlists[class] then
        if not sorters.list.data[class] then
            sorters.list.data[class] = {
                language = 'en',
                entries  = { },
                flush    = function(s) tex.sprint(tex.ctxcatcodes,s) end,
                sorted   = false,
                class    = class
            }
            local entries = sorters.list.data[class].entries
            for k,v in ipairs(job.sortedlists[class]) do
                if v[1] == 'l' then -- language
                    sorters.list.data[class].language = v[2]
                else
                    entries[#entries+1] = {
                        v[1],               -- kind (e)
                        { { v[2], v[3] } }, -- key, entry
                        v[4]                -- optional meaning
                    }
                end
            end
        end
        sorters.list.process(sorters.list.data[class])
    end
end

Hello Wolfgang,

Indeed, now I remember...

Both versions give wrong output with optional arguments. But the following
version works for me:

% engine=luatex
\unprotect
\def\mksavesortedlistentry#1#2#3#4% class key entry meaning
  {\immediatewriteutilitytua{table.insert(js['#1'],{'e','#3',\!!bs#3\!!es,\!!bs#4\!!es})}}
\protect
\definesynonyms[test][tests]
\test[bbb]{short text}{long description}
\test[aaa]{a short text}{a long description}
\starttext
\bbb~\aaa
\placelistoftests
\stoptext

Cheers, Peter

I forgot to mention you have to regenrate the format with my solution, your
seems to work but I found a way to stop processing because you the optinal
argument can also be used to write a mcro in the first pair of braces and this
can produce problems.

You can try to add the following synonym and TeX give you a error message.

\test[zB]{z.\thinspace B.}{zum Beispiel}

I've also regenrated the format. But now I understand better: it works well
with your patch for core-syn.lua and Hans' patch for core-syn.mkiv:
  {\immediatewriteutilitytua{table.insert(js['#1'],{'e','#2',\!!bs#3\!!es,\!!bs#4\!!es})}}

Cheers, Peter

Hi Hans,

the first part was your change in core-syn.mkiv to wrote all elements to the
tua file.

The scond correction is on line 108 in core-syn.lua

The order of key and entry is, the same as in the mkii macro

{ { v[2], v[3] } }, -- key, entry

but you wrote

{ { v[3], v[2] } }, -- entry, key

and can give the wrong entry in the synonymlist, e.g.

\definsynonyms[test][tests]
\test[A]{\TeX}{Description Text}

give

A  Description Text

and not

TeX  Description Text


I tested already in my own installation and this did work.

Wolfgang

ok, fixed

just wondering ... now we move to a mix of tex and lua code, how complex 
is it to piece together what's happening now inside context

I think that it is going to be easier (once you get the hang of it). When 
I started reading mkii code, I understood the steps that were being 
followed, but the fine details were pretty hard to understand. With 
luatex, the broad steps are still in tex, so that part is the same, but 
the fine implementation (that needed a real programming language) are in 
lua. This makes it much easier to understand. I could read the new mkiv 
pretty printing code and see what it was doing. With the mkii pretty 
printing  code, I spent about a week and was still clueless (rather, I 
understood bits and pieces, but there was no way I could extend it to 
another language).

I think that this is enough to overcome to compensate for the overhead 
between going back and forth between lua and tex code.
