== The LaTeX standard tools bundle ==
I think that Calculations are possible with etex{{cmd|numexpr}} or {{cmd|dimexpr}}, these things are trivial also in contextarguments to counters. I am not sure of the details. --[[User:Adityam|Aditya]]
Context has support In ConTeXt, you can define the alignment character for such featuresthe different tables. In [[Tabulate]], howeveryou use a <tt>cg(.)</tt> column, I need to look up the details. --in [[User:Adityam|AdityaTABLE#Using_character_alignment TABLE]]you use <tt>alignmentcharacter={.},aligncharacter=yes</tt>.
Context ConTeXt has builting builtin support for all the functionality of the enumerate package. Look at the documentation of {{cmd|setupitemize}}
Context has an inbuilt ConTeXt’s {{cmd|showlayout}} command, but that does not give has a ''visual'' output like the layout packagesimilar function.
Context has See [[Columns]]. === noindentafter === This package provides macros <code>\NoIndentAfterEnv</code> and <code>\NoIndentAfterCmd</code> to disable indentation even if there is empty line after an environment. In ConTeXt, similar functionality is achieved by `indentnext=no` setting of the environment. For single cases, use {{cmd|startcolumnsindentation}} or {{cmd|noindentation}}. ==== pdfdraftcopy ====This package allows one to place a word "Draft" on the page background. In ConTeXt the same result can be achieved using [[Layers]]. See [[Alternating backgrounds and columnsets that support the features of multicolrepeating layers]] for an example.
This is a latex LaTeX specific packagetrickery, makes no sense in ConTeXt.
==== trace ====This is a latex specific package for debuggingConTeXt has several <tt>\show…</tt> commands as well as [[Trackers]] and directives.
Context provides similar functionality using {{cmd|somewhere}}==== verbatim ====This is a reimplementation of LaTeX’s verbatim environment.
==== verbatim ====This is a reimplementation of Latex's verbatim environment. Context ConTeXt has {{cmd|starttyping}} which is equivalent to more powerful than LaTeX’s verbatim environment in Latex. See [[Verbatim_text]] for more details.
Context ConTeXt has {{cmd|autoinsertnextspace}} which is equivalent. However, this is (and will) remain undocumented and unsupported, since Hans does not like this kind of behaviour. == Other Packages ====== amsmath ====This is the most popular package for typesetting mathematics in LaTeX. Most of the features of amsmath are in ConTeXt-core. ==== glossaries ==== This is the most popular package for typesetting glossaries. Similar features are available using {{cmd|definesynonyms}} in ConTeXt. ==== pdfdraftcopy ====This package allows one to place a word "Draft" on the page background. In Context the same result can be achieved using Layers. See [[Alternating backgrounds and repeating layers]] for an example. === noindentafter ===
This package provides macros <code>\NoIndentAfterEnv</code> and <code>\NoIndentAfterCmd</code> to disable indentation even if there is empty line after an environment. In ConTeXt, similar functionality is achieved by `indentnext=no` setting of the environment.
updates, re-ordering
==== afterpage ====
Implements a command that causes the commands specified in its argument to be expanded after the current page is output. Context ConTeXt gives finer control using {{cmd|startpostponing}}
<texcode>
\starttext \dorecurse{4}{\input tufte \page} \stoptext
</texcode>
==== amsmath ====
This is the most popular package for typesetting mathematics in LaTeX. All relevant features of amsmath are in ConTeXt-core.
==== array ====
This is a latex LaTeX specific package. ConTeXt has built-in support for math arrays.
==== calc ====
==== dcolumn ====
The dcolumn package makes use of the array package to define a "D" column format for use in tabular environments.
==== enumerate ====
==== fileerr ====
Provides files to be used in subverting the response to TeX's TeX’s "file not found" errors, when running LaTeX. ConTeXt LMTX never stops to ask for a file name, either it breaks or there’s just a warning in the log (for modules, images, fonts etc.).
==== fontsmpl ====
==== ftnright ====
Assembles footnotes on two-column pages at the bottom of the right hand column.
(Don’t know, never tried.)
==== glossaries ====
This is the most popular package for typesetting glossaries. Similar features are available using {{cmd|definesynonyms}} in ConTeXt.
==== hhline ====
This is a latex LaTeX table specefic specific commandfor double horizontal lines. [[TABLE]]s can have lines in different styles (color, thickness), no double lines per default, but you can use [[MetaPost]].
==== indentfirst ====
In context ConTeXt you can achieve the same effect by
<texcode>
==== layout ====
==== longtable ====
Longtable allows you to write tables that continue to the next page. Context has support for this, but I do know too much about it. Perhaps someone else [[tabulate]] can elaborate on thisbreak over pages. --For [[User:Adityam|AdityaTABLE]] 04:10floats, 25 August 2006 (CEST)you can set <tt>split=yes</tt>.
==== minted ====
ConTeXt’s {{cmd|starttyping}} has syntax highlighting options. See [[Verbatim_text]] for more details. The `vim` and `scite` [[Modules]] provide even more options.
==== multicol ====
==== rawfonts ====
This is a latex font specific packagemakes no sense in ConTeXt (and not even in LaTeX).
==== showkeys ====
The showkeys package modifies the \label, \ref, \pageref, \cite and \bibitem commands so that the "internal" key is printed, without affecting the appearance of the rest of the text, so far as is possible (the keys typically appear in the margin).
AFAIK, Context ConTeXt does not have this functionality. A partial solution is using {{cmd|version[temporary]}} which gives a list of refernces references used on the current page.
==== somedefs ====
==== theorem ====
This is not a recommended latex LaTeX package. Context's See {{cmd|startenumeration}} has a lot of the functionality of how to setup theorems.
==== tabularx ====
Unfortunately, none of ConTeXt’s table modes has columns that “take the rest width”; with [[TABLE]]s, you can set <tt>option=stretch</tt> to spread the remaining space over all columns.
==== trace ====
This is a LaTeX specific package for debugging.
==== varioref ====
ConTeXt provides similar functionality using {{cmd|somewhere}}.
==== xr ====
The package provides a means of creating references to labels in another file
See [[References#References_to_an_external_file]]
==== xspace ====
