\startcolumnset ... \stopcolumnset fatal error: return code 11

Hi, I have used newcolumnset module to make a test sheet. It was made by the help of experts in the list. It worked fine a month ago and also worked via TeXlive 2021. But I got error using the recent version. Thanks Nicola and John for testing. I have listed it before and tried to find out the cause. I have test the following file in the editors, vscode, vim, atom and even in the terminal. It might be an apple binary problem as Hans suspected. I’d like to know that it is the only problem for Mac users. Here is the code and the part of error message: It was tested in vscode, vim and terminal too. I am using Mac OSX, ConTeXt ver: 2021.12.03 15:20 LMTX fmt: 2021.12.9 int: english/english Thank you for reading.

by Ramkumar KB 16 Dec '21

16 Dec '21

Hello All, If I have to just upgrade my context version installed in my linux VM (x88-64 - amd - redhat) - is debain9 the correct package? https://build.contextgarden.net/#/ - So I just replace the luametatex binary after download the binary from the build server? Is this correct? Thank you, best regards, Ramkumar

Archlinux: updated BPKGBUILD for luametatex
by Aditya Mahajan 15 Dec '21

15 Dec '21

Hi all, I am changing the way modules are installed in the ArchLinux aur package for luametatex. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/luametatex/ Earlier, I was just sym-linking to the modules installed by context-minimals-git package (which I also maintain). However, some packages there were out of date (in particular pgf/tikz). The new PKGBUILD installs the modules directly from CTAN. The following modules are installed by default: filter, vim, visualcounter, pgf, pgfplots, circtuitikz You can install other modules by adding them in the PKGBUILD. I am not sure if anyone else actually uses this PKGBUILD to maintain an up-to-date installation of LMTX. If someone does use it, and wishes to add more modules to the default list, I'll be happy to do that. Aditya

Syntax highlighting using LMTX
by Thangalin 15 Dec '21

15 Dec '21

Hi all, There are a few technical hurdles with using the t-vim module in LMTX. First, users need to install the module using externally defined shell scripts. Second, it's awkward to communicate to users how to install it, especially for Windows users. Third, it likely requires installing vim, as a separate step. Fourth, making general-purpose XML setups that optionally rely on syntax highlighting when it is an optional install is a little laborious. If installing a module was as easy as "install.sh --module=t-vim" then that would leap over most hurdles. Although there'd still be a dependency on installing vim. Of course, it'd be pretty sweet if ConTeXt itself could automatically install the necessary module when encountered (or provide a command-line option to grant permissions to do so), but I understand that that would be a hefty undertaking. The following pages discuss creating syntax highlighters: - https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Verbatim_text - https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Custom_pretty_printer - https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/333620/2148 How would you go about creating a syntax highlighter for Java that can work with LMTX? Specifically, I'd like to know: - Where do the files need to be saved? (e.g., tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/) - What file name is required? (e.g., buff-imp-java.lua and buff-imp-java.mkiv) - How is the parser loaded? (e.g., \loadmarkfile{buff-imp-java} or \installprettytype[java][java]) Ultimately, this is going to be used with XML snippets along the lines of: <pre><code class="language-java">public final class Example { public static void main( String args[] ) { } }</code></pre> Having the ability to dynamically define the requisite start/stop environments based on the class attribute would be rather convenient. Thank you!

descriptions -- symbol between head and text

Hi, is there a way to get some text between the head and the text of a description. Enumerations have stoppers, but I couldn't find an equivalent setting for descriptions: The output should look roughly like this: ABC: asdfasdfasdf jklöjklööjklö CDE: asdfasdfasdf jklöjklöjklöö Denis %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \definedescription[deflist][ headstyle=normal, style=normal, alternative=hanging, width=fit, margin=1cm, distance=0em, ] \starttext \startdeflist{ABC} \input knuth \stopdeflist \startdeflist{CDE} \input knuth \stopdeflist \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
