Modules

< The ConTeXt Way

Modules are extensions to ConTeXt's core functions.

There are not as many modules for ConTeXt as packages for LaTeX, because a lot of LaTeX package features are in ConTeXt's core.

Included modules:

• t-bib: bibliography (maintained by Taco)
• m-chart: Flow Charts
• m-chemic: PPCHTeX (chemical structure formulae)
• m-cweb: CWEB pretty printing
• m-edtsnc: support for editor synchronization, will replace m-pdfsync
• m-educat: educational additions (for settings school tests or questionaires)
• m-gamma: Omega support
• m-graph: support for Metapost graph module
• m-layout: defines some Layout presets
• m-level: module for catching nesting errors
• m-newmat: support for some AMSmath features, is loaded by amsl, see Math
• m-pdfsnc: editor/PDF synchronization support (used by iTeXMac and TeXShop)
• m-pictex: needed for PicTeX without eTeX
• m-plus: loads some extra features (side bars?)
• m-pstric: connection macros for PSTtricks (PostScript tricks)
• m-quest: dutch only module for questionaires(?)
• m-steps: Step Charts, see XML step charts
• m-tex4ht: will become a tex4html interface for ConTeXt
