Re: [NTG-context] Installation problem (was Updates without rsync)
I wanted to get a clean, up-to-date installation of Context on Windows (without using rsync), so started from scratch as follows: 1. Downloaded http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/install/minimals-snapshot-mswin.zip 2. Unzipped to C:\Tools\context 3. Renamed C:\Tools\context\texmf-context to texmf-context-old 4. Downloaded cont-tmf.zip and unzipped contents to c:\Tools\context\texmf-context 3. From command window, ran: cd \Tools\context setuptex mktexlsr luatools --generate luatools --selfupdate mtxrun --selfupdate texexec --make context --make 4. To generate new pdf, ran: context testdoc.tex Everything seemed to execute without errors until the last step which returned: MtxRun | loading configuration for C:/Tools/context/texmf/web2c from C:/Tools/context/texmf-cache/luatex- cache/context/b7bcb6722e1fe509b85ff004c33e8274/trees/90e2367b37b32bcc25e442581c9e72e2 MtxRun | run 1: luatex --fmt=C:/Tools/context/texmf-cache/luatex- cache/context/b7bcb6722e1fe509b85ff004c33e8274/formats/cont-en --lua=C:/Tools/context/texmf-cache/luatex- cache/context/b7bcb6722e1fe509b85ff004c33e8274/formats/cont-en.lua ./testdoc.tex luatex.exe: C:/Tools/context/texmf-cache/luatex- cache/context/b7bcb6722e1fe509b85ff004c33e8274/formats/cont-en.fmt: No such file or directory MtxRun | fatal error, code: 1 Looking at the source directory, a file testdoc.top has been created but nothing else. Can someone please point me towards a next step? Thanks, Richard P.S. I tried copying cont-en.fmt from C:\Tools\context\texmf-mswin\web2c\luatex\pdftex to the cache directory but got Fatal format file error, I'm stymied. I was trying various things and downloaded the beta version of cont-tmf.zip (from http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-2.htm ) instead of the current version and it all works, hooray! Thank-you, everyone, for your help. I'm so pleased to be able to use MKIV now for the first time - it even gives me Helvetica when I ask for it.

Why not Emacs :) It's also quite nice for ConTeXt.

Re: [NTG-context] Installation problem (was Updates without rsync)
All I've got to do now is get Scite working again :-( Why not Emacs :) It's also quite nice for ConTeXt. P. I used Emacs when I was young and idealistic, but over the years all those keyboard commands have been beaten out of me and it's beyond me now ;-) I did try it again recently in a flood of nostalgia, but I just couldn't get to grips with it again. Scite is okay, and hitting F7 to build a document is handy. It's missing a few features, though, which would make it great e.g. a user-configurable toolbar, so that we could add toolbar icons for ConTeXt commands (I'm always forgetting the order of options and a button which inserted a \placefigure command with reminders would be fantastic). Anyway, that's a bit off topic. Regards, Richard Converteam UK Ltd. Registration Number: 5571739 and Converteam Ltd. Registration Number: 2416188 Registered in England and Wales.
