* '''Q:''' In the "recent changes" page, it's often hard to notice the "N" designations ("New page") in the midst of a long line of "M" ("Minor edit") changes. Would it be possible to highlight the "N" in red or something? --[[Brooks]]<br>I agree with it. It is possible to hide minor edits, but it would really be better if <b>M</b> would become <i>M</i> or if the color of <b>N</b> would change. --[[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]] '''A:''' Done --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]]

'''could somebody please give me feedback if the google search in the [http://sandbox.contextgarden.net sandbox] is ok? Then I'd put it in the regular wiki --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]].
:Looks fine to me [[User:Taco|Taco]] 13:04, 11 November 2005 (CET)
:Thanks, Patrick! You keep surprising us. It's exactly what I was looking for. I looks OK & google doesn't list three copies of wiki any more. --[[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]]

* Yet another humble wish by [[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]] (& thanks for realizing the rest):
** <nowiki>[[doc:style.pdf]]</nowiki> to link to http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/style.pdf
: would <nowiki>[[manual:foxet.pdf]]</nowiki> be ok? I like it slightly more than 'doc' Yes? -> go ahead and use it :)

* '''Q:''' Are the <code><context></code> images rendered using gs? In that case, could [http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/cvs/Devices.htm#PNG <code>-sDEVICE=pngalpha</code>] be used to get transparent images? '''A''': [update2] Transparent images don't look right in IE, so I reverted the change. (Note for myself/1.5 wiki: see js at [http://homepage.ntlworld.com/bobosola/pngtestfixed.htm] for a fix. Thanks Mojca for this hint.)

Here's a an <b>old</b> wish list for [[User:Patrick Gundlach|the gardner]] :)
== Ideas ==
: '''A:''' I'm not sure yet; it looks sharper, but the sharpening seems a bit uneven compared to the old version. So I don't know whether I prefer "sharper" or "more even". ... After looking at this some more, I think I slightly favor the old version, because it does look more even. On the other hand, the images are a lot smaller on the new version, which is a definite boon on a modem connection! --[[User:Brooks|Brooks]]
* '''Q:''' adding <code><xmlcode></code> (code highlighter is already written) or, if not too complicated, something more general like <code><code type="xml"></code>, <code><code type="mp"></code>, ...
:'''A:''' This is quite hard I'd guess. Addition: in the new wiki software which I will eventually install (I am currently testing a lot -- MW sofware doesn't behave as expected) will be able to handle those parameters (note for myself: [http://metawww.wikimediamediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_extensions_FAQManual:Tag_extensions#How_can_I_pass_XML-style_parameters_in_my_extension_tag.3F instructions here])
* '''Q:''' adding <code><latex></code> counterpart to <code><context></code>; mostly in order to be able to compare LaTeX and ConTeXt results or to be able to describe the desired result in [[:Category:From LaTeX]]
:'''A:''' [update] I didn't remember what <code><context></code> does... Would we need a multiple pass solution? --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]]
: '''A2:''' Brooks seems to like LaTeX, perhaps he can tell more; I don't really remember how many time one needs to run it. I guess that we won't need BibTeX, but perhaps some proper indexing/cross referencing would be handy. Is running it two times enough? More than three times is probably already to much. --[[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]]
: '''A3:'''In most cases, LaTeX really only needs one run. It needs two runs to resolve any references that are referenced before they are created -- which, for Wiki examples (which don't have floats floating to later pages) is probably likely to be so infrequent as to be unnecessary. It occasionally needs more than two runs, but only in really rare cases, and we definitely won't see those on the Wiki. So, my answer would be to do two-pass (call "latex filename" twice) if it's easy to do, otherwise one-pass is probably sufficient. --[[User:Brooks|Brooks]] 06:10, 9 Sep 2005 (UTC)
* '''Q:''' We now have the the <nowiki>{{{cmd|command}} template and the <cmd>command</cmd></nowiki> tag. The template works beautifully, although it prints the command in proportional text instead of the rather nice fixed-width font used on this wiki. The latter doesn't work. Would it be possible for the maintainer to do a wiki-wide find-and-replace of <nowiki>s_<cmd>_{{cmd|_g and s_</cmd>_}}_ ?</nowiki> It will make every single page on this wiki hugely more useful in an instant.
=== [http://archive.contextgarden.net archive] ===
* if the user comes from google, parse the URL for <code>&q=somequery</code> and add <code>?search=somequery</code> at the end of the new URL
:'''Example''': if someone searches for ''hack'' in google and follows the link to [http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/supp-vis.tex supp-vis.tex], the site http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/supp-vis.tex?search=hack would open instead
=== general ===
* this is probably not so easy, but it would be great if there would be a way, similar to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Interwiki_linking interwiki] functionality, which would allow linking from one garden module to another, say:
** <nowiki>[[source:context.tex]]</nowiki> to link to http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/context.tex
** ??? to link to messages/threads in the archive
* What about different tulip colors on icons for different modules? (so that one sees the difference between wiki/source browser/texshow and others already from the color; I would perphaps leave three colors for wiki and make the rest "mono"chromatic: blue for source browser, red for live, ...). Maybe a stupid suggestion, but I usually have approximately 10-15 tabs per browser opened and this makes a difference ;) --[[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]]
