== The LaTeX standard tools bundle ====== 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</cmd>}}
<texcode>
</texcode>
==== array =amsmath ===This is a latex specific the most popular packagefor typesetting mathematics in LaTeX. All relevant features of amsmath are in ConTeXt-core.
=== array ===This is a LaTeX specific package. ConTeXt has built-in support for math arrays. === babel ===ConTeXt is multilingual by default; see {{cmd|mainlanguage}}, {{cmd|language}}, {{cmd|setuplanguage}}. === calc ====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]] === dcolumn ===
==== dcolumn ====
The dcolumn package makes use of the array package to define a "D" column format for use in tabular environments.
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>. === enumerate ===
==== ConTeXt has builtin support for all the functionality of the enumerate ====package. Look at the documentation of {{cmd|setupitemize}}
Context has builting support for all === fileerr ===Provides files to be used in subverting the functionality of enumerate packageresponse to TeX’s "file not found" errors, when running LaTeX. Look at the documentation of <cmd>setupitemize</cmd>
==== fileerr ====Provides files ConTeXt LMTX never stops to be used ask for a file name, either it breaks or there’s just a warning in subverting the response to TeX's "file not found" errorslog (for modules, images, when running LaTeXfonts etc.).
==== fontsmpl ====
Provides a package which defines a command \fontsample (which will print a sample of the current font), and a document which prompts for a font family name (such as "cmr") and prints a sampler of the whole family.
In ConTeXt, you can see the details of a font by <{{cmd>|showfontstrip</cmd> }} which shows a summary of the current font, and <{{cmd>|showfont</cmd> }} which shows the current font, and can also show an arbitrary font.
==== 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>
</texcode>
==== layout ====Context has an inbuilt <ConTeXt’s {{cmd>|showlayout</cmd> }} command, but that does not give has a ''visual'' output like the layout packagesimilar function.
==== 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 can elaborate on this. --[[User:Adityam|Aditya]] 04:10, 25 August 2006 (CEST)
[[Tabulate]] can break over pages. For [[TABLE]] floats, you can set <tt>split=yes</tt>.
==== multicol =makeindex ===Context ConTeXt has <cmd>startcolumns</cmd> and columnsets that builtin (multi-)index support the features of multicol.
==== rawfonts =minted ===This is a latex font specific packageConTeXt’s {{cmd|starttyping}} has syntax highlighting options. See [[Verbatim_text]] for more details. The `vim` and `scite` [[Modules]] provide even more options.
===multicol = showkeys ==See [[Columns]]. === noindentafter ===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 does not have this functionality. A partial solution is using This package provides macros <code>\NoIndentAfterEnv</code> and <cmdcode>version[temporary]\NoIndentAfterCmd</cmdcode> which gives a list to disable indentation even if there is empty line after an environment. In ConTeXt, similar functionality is achieved by `indentnext=no` setting of refernces used on the current pageenvironment. For single cases, use {{cmd|indentation}} or {{cmd|noindentation}}.
==== somedefs =pdfdraftcopy ===This is package allows one to place a latex specific packageword "Draft" on the page background. In ConTeXt the same result can be achieved using [[Layers]]. See [[Alternating backgrounds and repeating layers]] for an example.
==== theorem =polyglossia ===This ConTeXt is not a recommended latex package. Context's <multilingual by default; see {{cmd|mainlanguage}}, {{cmd>startenumeration</|language}}, {{cmd> has a lot of the functionality of theorems|setuplanguage}}.
==== tabularx =rawfonts ===This makes 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).
==== trace ====This AFAIK, ConTeXt does not have this functionality. A partial solution is using {{cmd|version[temporary]}} which gives a latex specific package for debugginglist of references used on the current page.
==== varioref =somedefs ===LaTeX specific package trickery, makes no sense in ConTeXt.
Context provides similar functionality using <=== theorem ===This is not a recommended LaTeX package. See {{cmd>somewhere</cmd>|startenumeration}} how to setup theorems.
==== verbatim =tabularx ===This is a reimplementation Unfortunately, none of Latex'ConTeXt’s table modes has columns that “take the rest width”; with [[TABLE]]s verbatim environment. Context has , you can set <cmdtt>starttypingoption=stretch</cmdtt> which is equivalent to verbatim environment in Latexspread the remaining space over all columns. See [[Verbatim_text]] for more details
==== xr =trace ===The This is a LaTeX specific package provides a means of creating references to labels in another filefor debugging.
==== xspace ====Context ConTeXt has several <cmdtt>autoinsertnextspace\show…</cmdtt> which is equivalent. However, this is (commands as well as [[Trackers]] and will) remain undocumented and unsupported, since Hans does not like this kind of behaviourdirectives.
== Other Packages ====== amsmath =varioref ===This is the most popular package for typesetting mathematics in LaTeX. Most of the features of amsmath are in ConTeXt-coreprovides similar functionality using {{cmd|somewhere}}.
=== verbatim ===
This is a reimplementation of LaTeX’s verbatim environment.
==== glossaries ====ConTeXt has {{cmd|starttyping}} which is more powerful than LaTeX’s verbatim environment. See [[Verbatim_text]] for more details.
This is the most popular === xr ===The package for typesetting glossaries. Similar features are available using <cmd>definesynonyms</cmd> provides a means of creating references to labels in ConTeXt.another file
==== 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 layersReferences#References_to_an_external_file]] for an example.
=== noindentafter xspace ===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.
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.
