Apr 25	comment	Odd vertical gap with multicol, scrreprt and parskip=half Agreed. As I said in my answer this is associated to the last column balancing of `multicols`.
Apr 25	revised	Odd vertical gap with multicol, scrreprt and parskip=half Added more explanation
Apr 25	comment	Odd vertical gap with multicol, scrreprt and parskip=half `parskip=full` just makes the left column longer so the effect disappears.

Apr 25	comment	Mutliple inputs with line breaking Welcome to TeX.sx! This is a good to suggestion. To help future visitors please make this in to a complete minimal working example (MWE), cf. Gonzalo Medina's answer.
Apr 25	revised	Mutliple inputs with line breaking Fixed markdown
Apr 25	comment	How do I get italic texts figures in ConTeXt? If I run `context` on your examples then `mkiv` is used and the `otf` version of the latin modern fonts are used, and I get italic old style numbers. On the other hand if I run the older `texexec` command, then `mkii` is used and `.pfb` files for latin modern are loaded. Perhaps these don't have the required glyphs or `mkii` calls oldstyle numbers in a different way.
Apr 25	comment	How do I get italic texts figures in ConTeXt? `\em` is a command for emphasising text relative to its context, in particular `\em` inside `\em` will produce roman. If you want to definitively switch to italic use `\it` instead.
Apr 24	comment	Are there any editors or packages with auto-correct for LaTeX commands? Similar features are available for auctex in emacs.

Apr 24	comment	microtype has issues with mathdesign \mathsf font That log shows the different machine using an even older microtype from 2007. You need to upgrade.

Apr 24	comment	Intersection of paths with constructed names That works fine for me, the `global` option makes the names globally defined and I can use them in other groups and loops. May be you have a typo in your code.
Apr 24	comment	Index with accented letters @daleif That will work nicely provided the text font italic matches math italic, which might not be the case if a font package has been loaded.

Apr 23	comment	Referencing bib files with spaces in the filename I don't see that this is a duplicate. It is the bibtex stage that chokes on the space in the filename.
