references to other garden projects

Use the following syntax to create links to the other contextgarden projects:

 [[source:type-akb.tex| type-akb.tex]]
 [[manual:cont-eni.pdf| ConTeXt, the manual]] or [[magazine:0008|Magazine 8]]
 [[modules:t-bnf| bnf module]]
 [[cmd:goto|\goto]] 
 [[gardenbugs:5| bug nr. 5]]
 [[article:80|A Few Dangerous Features]]
 [[publication:1|MAPS]]

Looks like:

• type-akb.tex
• ConTeXt, the manual or Magazine 8
• bnf module
• \goto
• bug nr. 5
• A Few Dangerous Features
• MAPS

Or (deprecated) use the <cmd> ... </cmd> syntax for texshow-web (next section).

references to texshow-web

<cmd> ... </cmd>

this links to the definition of the command in texshow-web. Example: <cmd>about</cmd> gives \about

prettyprinting

<texcode> ... </texcode> prettyprinting TeX source. Use like

<texcode>
 ...
</texcode>

same with <xmlcode>

inline ConTeXt

<context>
\setupcolors [state=start]
\framed [background=color,
         backgroundcolor=green,
         offset=1cm ]{hello world!}
</context>

runs ConTeXt on the fly. See also http://live.contextgarden.net/ for an online ConTeXt.

If you add source="yes" to the <context> tag, you have the source and the result displayed. Example:

<context source="yes" text="produces">
\setupcolors [state=start]
\framed [background=color,
         backgroundcolor=green,
         offset=1cm ]{hello world!}
</context>

The contents of the attribute text will be inserted between the text and the result.
