Left margin of vim module output

Left margin of vim module output

[Marco Patzer]

Hi,

how can I adjust the left margin of the output of the vim module?

The core typing mechanism implements a “margin” key for this. The
vim output also does not react to the “leftoffset” setting of the
background mechanism.

\usemodule [vim]

\definetextbackground [code]
  [location=paragraph,
   %leftoffset=1cm,
   topoffset=5mm]

\definevimtyping [C]
  [syntax=c,
   before={\starttextbackground[code]},
   after=\stoptextbackground]

\setuptyping [typing]
  [margin=1cm,
   before={\starttextbackground[code]},
   after=\stoptextbackground]

\starttext

\startC
/* This MEMB() definition defines a memory pool from
 * which we allocate neighbour entries. */
MEMB(neighbours_memb, struct neighbour, MAX_NEIGHBOURS);
\stopC

\blank

\starttyping
/* This MEMB() definition defines a memory pool from
 * which we allocate neighbour entries. */
MEMB(neighbours_memb, struct neighbour, MAX_NEIGHBOURS);
\stoptyping

\stoptext

Currently, vim module does not provide any option similar to the margin 
key for typing mechanism, but you can wrap the code around a `narrower` 
environment.

\usemodule [vim]

\definenarrower
   [code]
   [left=3cm,
    default=left]

\showframe
\starttext

\startC
/* This MEMB() definition defines a memory pool from
  * which we allocate neighbour entries. */
MEMB(neighbours_memb, struct neighbour, MAX_NEIGHBOURS);
\stopC

\stoptext

Sorry, this does not work because of the \forgetall in 
t-syntax-highlight.mkiv (I was testing with that line commented out).

I'll add a margin key to vim module (but not the oddmargin and evenmargin 
keys; they would require a complete low-level rewrite of the module).

The dev version on github now includes a margin key, so you can add 
margin=<dimen> to \setupvimtyping or \definevimtyping. (I haven't tested 
it too much, hence no new release at the moment).

Note that this works differently from \definetyping. The typing 
environment honors the leftskip set by its parent environment (for 
example, if typing is inside startbackground); vimtyping environment 
resets all the settings of its parent environment.

Thanks a million. That was fast :)

Does it? I just can see a new test file in the recent commit history
(without margin key, however). Did you already push the changes to
the public repo?

That's my part, I guess

No problem, I'm totally fine with the git repo.

That's why the hacks that I tried before all miserably failed.

Thanks again!

You are right. Pushed this time.
