TeXmacs as a part of a web publishing workflow in Rice's Connexions

Hi all,

Me and my studenst are thinking in use TeXmacs as a tool for the
creation of content that will be uploaded later on the Connexions
project of the Rice University ( www.cnx.org ). I have made some
preliminary test on:

http://cnx.org/content/m17522/latest/

The problem is that the Tralics software wich mades the translation from
LaTeX to cnxml (Connexions Markup Language) doesn't have the support for
the Color package of LaTeX, so the computer algebra sessions on the Web
document get markup like red sage blue Input. The quick solution is to
say TeXmacs that all CAS sessions are in black also. There is any way to
make this? There is any way to make this on the exported LaTeX doc only?

Also I would like to know if there is any way to say TeXmacs that uses
the Windows Look and Feel from the first time without going to the
manual configuration.

Cheers,

Offray

Pdt: Sorry about crossposting but the last time I check my mail didn't
arrive to users and is working fine on dev.

Wow, really a cool project !

Dunno.

One thing you definitely can do is to write an export function
in Scheme to rewrite the document to LaTeX, or any other kind
of markup language. This is initially a little bit more work,
but this way, you can do exactly what you need.

Change the Look and Feel manually once, and then diff the
files in .TeXmacs to know exactly how the configuration files
have been altered. Once you know this, you can write a script
which modifies the appropriate file to change the configuration.

The configuration files contain s-expressions, thus there's
no hard problems for reverse-engineering the encoding (which
should remain rather stable across versions, IMHO).

Eh, precisely, I post you an answer discussing possible hacks
to solve your problems, thus now it HAS to go on dev ;-)...
