Hi, I am currently working on a new modules section on contextgarden. I might finish it tomorrow. Edit and upload will be possible then. And I'll answer some mails tomorrow (many to go...) Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

modules setup
by Taco Hoekwater 04 Apr '06

04 Apr '06

Hi all developers, FYI, here is the new t-lettrine.zip, and the tpm.dtd (from texlive). The zip has the structure we discussed over the past few days (I think so, at least). The sizes in the embedded tpm file are estimated, and just a tad higher than the actual sizes.

latest beta (tests needed)
by Taco Hoekwater 03 Apr '06

Hi, Hans, you are almost there, afaik. A few notes still: * The new bibliography module. It would be more comfortable if the t-bib was in tex/context/bib like before. It is now in tex/context/third, like in my zipfile, but that is searched later, so I now had to delete the old one manually. And if you want to promote it to core status anyway ... * A small fix to verbatim (color) * The improved version of math substacks. (looks fine) * The xtag-mml patch. * The \dodoregister patch. Duncan, can you check if these last two items are ok now? Taco

It is an RDF syntax that should do all we need already. There even is a filled one for context (TL2005): http://www.tug.org/texlive/devsrc/Master/texmf-dist/tpm/context.tpm Taco

Extended unic-032 and unic-033
by Taco Hoekwater 30 Mar '06

Hi, I guess the two symb-xxx.tex files in the zip should be merged with some other stuff like math-uni.tex and (maybe?) a reinstated enco-uni.tex. Cheers, Taco

xtag-mmp.tex patch
by Duncan Hothersall 24 Mar '06

At line 492 in xtag-mmp.tex: \def\pMULTISCRIPTmmlPRE#1#2#3#4% {\ifdone \ifodd\scratchcounter ^{\naturalxmlr{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}}{}% \else _{\naturalxmlr{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}}% \fi \else \doif{mprescripts/}{#1}{\donetrue{}}% weak, the / here \fi \ifdone \advance\scratchcounter 1 \fi} I think the super/sub scripts are the wrong way around; suggest swapping fourth and sixth lines: \def\pMULTISCRIPTmmlPRE#1#2#3#4% {\ifdone \ifodd\scratchcounter _{\naturalxmlr{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}}% \else ^{\naturalxmlr{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}}{}% \fi \else \doif{mprescripts/}{#1}{\donetrue{}}% weak, the / here \fi \ifdone \advance\scratchcounter 1 \fi} According to the MathML spec http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-MathML2-20031021/chapter3.html#presm.mmultisc… the syntax is <mmultiscripts> base (subscript superscript)* [ <mprescripts/> (presubscript presuperscript)* ] </mmultiscripts> Thanks from the strange world of presentational MathML, Duncan

kpse
by Hans Hagen 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

Hi, Attached is a zip with ruby stuff. Not perfect, also not best organized but it shows some ideas. compare kpsewhich texnansi.enc tmftools.rb texnansi-enc the first alternative is a bit faster, the second can be faster when we use a serialized hash. now, say (windows) set KPSEMETHOD=drb set KPSEPORT=7000 and run tmftools --serve and next tmftools.rb texnansi-enc since we now run kpse as a service, we have a pretty fast response. One may wonder why we need such things ... but imagine (as part of a workflow): texmfstart bin:xsltproc --output whatever.xml kpse:something.xsl whoknows.xml texmfstart rlxtools --manipulate kpse:test.rlx whatever.rlg we can now save calls to kpsewhich. texmfstart already has many built in optimizations to limit the number of calls and kpsefast also has some caching. Btw, the server serves multiple trees at the same time. (I have to reshuffle the kpse classes/modules a bit.) Other new features involve passing environment variables. In threaded scripts the problem is that the environment hash is shared. This means that one cannot easily do something ENV['TEXMF']= = "..." system("texexec ...") in treads because each thread may have different assignments to TEXMF. For this purpose, texmfstart already had: --tree=/mytex/version-1 with setuptex.tmf is part of the minimal distributions and and is just a series of assignments. This file is put in the root of a tree. (btw, this makes it easy to put several trees on the wiki and to select a version; it's juts a matter if adding the --tree switch) # usage: texmfstart --tree=f:/minimal/tex ... # # this assumes that calling script sets TEXPATH without a trailing # slash; %VARNAME% expands to the environment variable, $VARNAME # is left untouched; we also assume that TEXOS is set. TEXMFMAIN = %TEXPATH%/texmf TEXMFLOCAL = %TEXPATH%/texmf-local TEXMFFONTS = %TEXPATH%/texmf-fonts TEXMFEXTRA = %TEXPATH%/texmf-extra TEXMFPROJECT = %TEXPATH%/texmf-project VARTEXMF = %TMP%/texmf-var HOMETEXMF = TEXMFOS = %TEXPATH%/%TEXOS% # OSFONTDIR = %SYSTEMROOT%/fonts TEXMFCNF = %TEXPATH%/texmf{-local,}/web2c TEXMF = {$TEXMFOS,$TEXMFPROJECT,$TEXMFFONTS,$TEXMFLOCAL,$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN} TEXMFDBS = $TEXMF TEXFORMATS = %TEXMFOS%/web2c/{$engine,} MPMEMS = %TEXFORMATS% TEXPOOL = %TEXFORMATS% MPPOOL = %TEXPOOL% PATH > %TEXMFOS%/bin PATH > %TEXMFLOCAL%/scripts/perl/context PATH > %TEXMFLOCAL%/scripts/ruby/context EXAMPLEROOT = %VARTEXMF% TEXINPUTS = MPINPUTS = MFINPUTS = In addition to this file, one can also feed an extra file with the --environment option. This means that one can leave most dirty details to texmfstart and keep scripts simple.
