cld feature request
by Taco Hoekwater 15 Jan '15

15 Jan '15

Hi Hans, Lately, I am doing quite a lot of work with CLD, and sometimes I do not trust my Lua code completely. To allow some rudimentary debugging, I have patched my local cldf-ini.lua to contain this: local dumpfile = io.open('dumpfile.txt', 'w') local function flush (z,...) if type(z) == 'number' then dumpfile:write(string.format('%02d ', z)) else dumpfile:write(' ') dumpfile:write(z) end for _,v in ipairs({...}) do dumpfile:write (v) end dumpfile:write ('\n') texsprint(z,...) end instead of the normal local flush = texsprint That way, I can look in dumpfile.txt to make sure that the correct ConTeXt code is generated. Is there any chance that you could offer a tracker/messaging feature with similar functionality? Patching cldf-ini.lua is not nice ;) Best wishes, Taco

Hi, there is a bug with the number conversion code when values from a commalist are used, e.g. \starttext \dorecurse{10}{#1:\convertnumber{set 1}{#1} } \stoptext The bug is in the "convert" function from the Lua part. local function convert(method,n,language) local converter = language and converters[method..":"..language] or converters[method] if converter then return converter(n) else local lowermethod = lower(method) local linguistic = counters[lowermethod] if linguistic then return do_alphabetic(n,linguistic,lowermethod == method and lowercharacter or uppercharacter) end local sequence = sequences[method] if sequence then - local set = sequences.set - if set then - local max = #set + local max = #sequence if n > max then - return set[(n-1) % max + 1] + return sequence[(n-1) % max + 1] else - return set[n] + return sequence[n] end - end end return n end end Wolfgang

Luatex 0.79.2 announcement
by luigi scarso 11 Nov '14

11 Nov '14

New luatex release, 0.79.2 . Changes: * WARNING: the structure of the format file is changed. After the Web2C \TeX's magic constant: "W2TX" there is now a FORMAT_ID, a 32bit field that cannot be between 0 and 256 (included) so that there are no conflicts with the preexisting structure of the format. The value can be seen with --debug-format and currently is 907 (the sum of the values of the bytes of the ASCII string "don knuth"). * There is a new set of lua functions for StructElement and Attribute, convenient (even if not indispensable) for tagged pdf. * several bugfixes and improvements. The archives can be downloaded from supelec as usual: https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/luatex/ You could also check out the sources via anonymous svn: svn co --username anonsvn --password anonsvn \ https://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/tags/beta-0.79.2 <https://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/tags/beta-0.79.1> Bugs and feature requests can be added to the issue tracker at http://tracker.luatex.org Have fun, Hans, Taco, Luigi -- luigi

patch: fix character alignment on long tables
by Brian Landy 16 Aug '14

16 Aug '14

Hi, here is a patch for consideration. The character alignment code would fail on tables with more than 100 rows, as it was encoding the row/column number into a single integer 100*column+row. I modified the code to pass in the row and column using separate attributes.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed
by Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

[This announcement is dedicated to the 110% recovery and return of our visionary and fearless leader Hans Hagen: Three cheers to you, Hans!!!] Dear gang, It's my pleasure to announce the release of Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed, a monospaced font that extends TeX-Gyre Latin Modern Mono 10 Regular. It has been uploaded to CTAN, although I do not know how long it will take for the CTAN people to approve and publish it. Eventually it will make it's way into the ConTeXt minimals as well. Until then, you may use this private link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pulgaxshzr5bcmy/almfixed.zip README.txt is reproduced below. Future plans include both bold and proportional versions. Enjoy and Best wishes Idris -- Idris Samawi Hamid Professor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523 ==========README.txt========== Typeface Family: Arabic-Latin Modern Font: Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed Style: Regular Version: 0.92 Author: Idris Samawi Hamid Date: August 5, 2014 License: Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed is licensed under the GUST Font License with one important adjustment: It is requested, as well as legally *required*, that derived works be distributed only after changing the names of the fonts comprising this work. http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-foundry/licenses/GUST-FONT-LICENSE.txt/vi… Contains: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/doc/almfixed-dtk.pdf http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/ps; http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/tt; Some notes, in no particular order: 1. For more extensive documentation, examples, and background; see almfixed-dtk.pdf. 2. The final version number (per any future fixes, maintenance etc.) is intended to be Version 1.10. 3. Arabic-Latin Modern Fixed is an extension of TeX-Gyre Latin Modern Mono 10 Regular. Every glyph and opentype feature of the Latin Modern Mono has been retained, with minor improvements. On the other hand, we have changed the vertical metrics of the font. Although the Arabic script is designed to use the same x-size as Latin Modern Mono, the former script needs greater ascender and descender space. And there are cases (such as certain kinds of academic assignment and definitely mixed Latin and Arabic text) where Latin can use the extra vertical space as well. Otherwise, only the vertical metrics prevents this from being a drop-in replacement for Latin Modern Mono . Of course one can always set the vertical metrics in TeX to match LM Mono. 4. Every Arabic glyph in each Unicode-code block is supported (up to Unicode 7.0): Arabic, Arabic Supplement, Arabic Extended, Arabic Presentation-Forms A, and Arabic Presentation-Forms B. 5. This is a totally original design, using the Knuthian letters as inspiration. Indeed, virtually all Arabic characters were developed on the foundation of a study of the Latin Modern Mono letters 'l', 'r', and 'c'. In other words, this is a genuine extension of the original Knuthian design to an authentic and culturally authentic Arabic typing font. 6. There are two versions of the font: ps and tt. The Type~1 version is for print applications (and usually the default for TeX). The TrueType version is for on-screen applications such as text editors. Hinting in the tt version is much better for on-screen, at least on Microsoft Windows. 7. The most unique feature of Arabic-Latin Modern is in its treatment of vowels and diacritics. Each vowel and diacritic (ALM Fixed contains a total of 68 such glyphs) can now be edited horizontally within any text editor or processor. I believe this is the very first opentype Arabic font ever to have this capability. Editing complex Arabic texts will now be much easier to input and to proofread. 8. At least 12 additional format characters are included; see almfixed-dtk.pdf for details. Also designed a glyph representation for U+00A0 (no-break space), as well as U+25CC (dotted circle). 9. Arabic-Latin Modern Mono will be a boon to scholars, academics, coder editors, and anyone who wants to manage the entry of the wide array of Unicode Arabic text for editing, verbatim, or other purposes. ==============================

\startframed
by Wolfgang Schuster 24 Jul '14

24 Jul '14

Hi, I guess the following changes are useful to ensure the spaces at the begin and end of a framed environment are removed. A minimal example to show the problem: \starttext L\startframed[offset=none] M \stopframed R \stoptext pack-rul.mkiv: \def\pack_framed_start_framed[#1]% {\bgroup \advance\c_pack_framed_nesting\plusone \expandafter\let\csname\??framed>\the\c_pack_framed_nesting:\s!parent\endcsname\??framed \iffirstargument\secondargumenttrue\fi % dirty trick \edef\currentframed{>\the\c_pack_framed_nesting}% \pack_framed_initialize \pack_framed_process_framed[#1]% can be inlined - \bgroup} + \bgroup\ignorespaces} % till here -\let\stopframed\egroup +\unexpanded\def\stopframed + {\removeunwantedspaces\egroup} Wolfgang
