Issue with italics
by Jean-Pierre Delange 26 Feb '24

26 Feb '24

Dear list, When handling the preamble to a document in which I would like to treat the text in French, with sometimes italics text and phrases in ancient Greek, I encounter the following difficulty: if I use TeX Gyre Pagella as the main font, everything works fine, except for the Ancient Greek text, which I don't like the look of. But the Greek text is displayed, as are the French italics. On the other hand, if I use GFS Didot as the main font and Theano Didot for the Greek, the italics disappear and the Greek text looks better. The CTX version I use is: mtx-context | current version: 2024.01.24 22:39. Herewith are two MWE attachments (*.tex + *.pdf) with different fonts. What am I missing ? Thanks for your answers. JP

Thank you for your interest, Aditya. The error was kindly fixed by Hans introducing the following fix at line 993 in tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/back-exp-imp-mth.lmt: function extras.msubsup(di,element,n,fulltag) local data = di.data local nuc = found(data) local sup = found(data,"sup") local sub = found(data,"sub") data[1] = nuc or dummy_nucleus data[2] = sub or dummy_nucleus data[3] = sup or dummy_nucleus data.__i__ = 3 local sp = specifications[di.fulltag] if attributes then attributes.mathsupindex = sp.supshifted attributes.mathsubindex = sp.subshifted else di.attributes = { mathsupindex = sp.supshifted, mathsubindex = sp.subshifted, } end end This solved the issue. -- Andrés Conrado Montoya Andi Kú andresconrado(a)gmail.com http://sesentaycuatro.com http://messier87.com http://chiquitico.org ---------------------------------------- Los fines no justifican los medios, porque la medida verdadera de nuestro carácter está dada por los medios que estamos dispuestos a utilizar, no por los fines que proclamamos. ---------------------------------------- “You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it.

Strange error at lxml-mms.lmt:749
by Andres Conrado Montoya 25 Feb '24

25 Feb '24

I keep bumping into this error, I have no idea what may be causing it, in a statistics book with lots of math: registered function call [250]: ...mtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/lxml-mms.lmt:749: attempt to index a nil value (local 'a2') I have checked everything. I have tried commenting out many things and the weird part is that it fails in a simple math expression: \math{E_{i}j}. Even a simple $y$ or \math{a+b} will trigger the error. However, this same file Im working on has many formulas before that, those work fine. I changed all the $...$ to \math{...} just in case, but with no success. Already tried remaking, regenerating, updating the distribution. Do you have any ideas to work this out? I don't know how to provide a MWE for this because it's a very big project (statistics book). I have tried 2 versions, the system-wide one, just upgraded: mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.06 mtx-context | current version: 2024.02.22 18:31 And a less recent version, attached to the project: mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.05 mtx-context | current version: 2024.02.14 13:38 Any help will be much appreciated. -- Andrés Conrado Montoya Andi Kú andresconrado(a)gmail.com http://sesentaycuatro.com http://messier87.com http://chiquitico.org ---------------------------------------- Los fines no justifican los medios, porque la medida verdadera de nuestro carácter está dada por los medios que estamos dispuestos a utilizar, no por los fines que proclamamos. ---------------------------------------- “You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it.

typing with scite module and escape
by Henning Hraban Ramm 24 Feb '24

24 Feb '24

Hi, I’m trying to use escaping in a typing environment. It works until I load the scite module. I need that only for btx highlighting, but I can’t limit it to that. What should I do? \usemodule[scite] \define[1]\SAY{\hfill{\rm #1}} \setuptyping[TEX][ option=tex,% scite sets cld escape=yes, ] \starttext \startTEX \starttext/BTEX\SAY{Text starts here}/ETEX \input tufte \stoptext/BTEX\SAY{Text ends here}/ETEX \stopTEX \stoptext

MetaPost lines in tables?
by Henning Hraban Ramm 22 Feb '24

22 Feb '24

I guess I asked this a while ago, but I can’t find an answer: Is it possible to replace the lines of a TABLE with my own MetaPost graphics? ATM I’m trying to place my MP lines behind a frame-less TABLE; it will probably work, but it’s a crutch… Hraban

using an end of line as parameter
by Miguel Diaz 22 Feb '24

22 Feb '24

Dear list, I want to format some language tests that different people are preparing. Each one uses different software and there are always problems in format that i want to solve. for a a/b/c questions I receive text that I will format to a list (comments are mine) In den Büchereien gibt es auch … %the question … Kuchen. %option a … Theater. %option b … Workshops. %option c I need to detect \par or whatever sign marks the newline character as an argument delimiter so that I dont have to paste hundreds of times braces for each argument. For the example, I use this macro definition (which does no work!) \long\def\prueba #1\par#2\par#3\par#4ñ{\framed[frame=off,width=0.8\textwidth,corner=round,offset=1em,align=flushleft]% {{\bf Beispiel}: #1\\ \qquad a) #2\\ \qquad b) {\bf #3}\\ \qquad c) #4 } I get: tex error on line 493 in file ./prueba.tex: The file ended when scanning an argument. the macro seems to read to the end of file not detecting \par; I know its the \par that causes the problem; I used ^^M also which I read is a sinonym for return but it also does not work. Help would be appreciated (my computer keyboard would appreciate it too...)
