Yes. If you use _both_ ConTeXt and LaTeX (and some of us - including me - are kind of forced to use LaTeX, too, because of: * having a number of old LaTeX files which wuold be a trouble to convert; * sending papers to journals accepting LaTeX; * writing LaTeX stuff to order) Personally I'd find it inconvenient to have two TeX trees and having to change my environment to use one or another. (Possibly, I could arrange it so that I don't have to change any environment variables, but still, since I don't need the state-of-the-art MkIV, texlive is ok for me.) > > If the "minimal ConTeXt" is the only standard way of using a full > ConTeXt, then it could be rename "maximal" ;-) > or more seriously something lire "standard", "hot" or > "independant" (longish) Well, it is "minimal" in the sense of dependencies, I guess. > > -- Maurice Greets -- Marcin Borkowski (http://mbork.pl) Wołałem Pana w moim udręczeniu; mego Boga, mego Boga przyzywałem! I usłyszał mój głos ze Swej świątyni, i dotarł do Jego ucha mój krzyk! I ziemia poruszyła się i zadrżała, i fundamenty świata się odsłoniły; I wyciągnął Swą rękę i mnie pochwycił, wydźwignął mnie z głębokości wód! ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
