minor problem with utf-8 inside \startintertext
by Mojca Miklavec 13 Mar '07

Hello, I have something for (most probably) Hans/Taco/Aditya to resolve: \enableregime[utf-8] \starttext \startformula\startalign \NC a \NC = b \NR \startintertext Še četrta možnost % For those with problems with encoding, \ccaron should be enough to reproduce the bug. \stopintertext \NC c \NC = d \NR \stopalign\stopformula \stoptext I remember seing similar problems inside \cases some time ago. Thanks, Mojca

XeTeX and fontconfig in the minimals?
by Mojca Miklavec 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hello Hans, I really rarely work on windows recently, but it would be great if the windows minimals would support xetex & fontconfig properly. Currently XeTeX fails to work since some libraries are missing (icuuc34.dll is reported, but others are missing as well). These was true some time ago: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_Installation#XeTeX_Installation Most things still hold, the only thing is that binaries could now be taken from TeXLive. This is a list of missing files in bin: fc-{cache,case,cat,glyphname,lang,list,match}.exe icudt34.dll icule34.dll icuuc34.dll TECkit_x86.dll I don't know what these are, but they might be needed as well (no idea): nkf.exe ole32.dll oleaut32.dll rpcrt4.dll I don't have the TeXLive here, but if you take a look into ftp://akagi.ms.u-tokyo.ac.jp/pub/TeX/win32/xetex-w32.tar.bz2 the following is also *really* needed: - texmf/fonts/ {everything except opentype} (-doc/xetex/XeTeX-reference and xetex-guide might be useful, but not needed) "Setting up fontconfig" still holds as written on the wiki. Would it be possible to add these files and fontconfig settings? I would really like to remove that portion of instructions from the wiki. Thanks a lot, Mojca

Meanwhile, I checked out cont-fnt.zip, but it does not have the lbm* files either, only text font metrics are included. Cheers, Taco

It has been like that almost since day one, so I am not at all sure Hans would consider it a bug, just different from LaTeX (plain). Cheers, Taco

Debian ConTeXt packages 2007.02.20
by Norbert Preining 25 Feb '07

25 Feb '07

Hi all! Ok, it took a bit of time, but there is now also a Debian packages for ConTeXt release 2007.02.20. deb http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ context/ deb-src http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ context/ BUT!!! You need the new lmodern 1.01 Debian package for this: deb http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ lmodern/ deb-src http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ lmodern/ I will upload both of these packages soon to Debian EXPERIMENTAL (!!!). Since Florent (main responsible for the lmodern package) and I agreed that we don't want to push lmodern 1.01 into etch (and there it is not necessary since there is no independent context package), the upload will go to experimental. As long as you have the above apt-get source nothing will change for you, but for people only using Debian/unstable source there will be no update. If you have any questions please let me know!
