Hello, I'm a LaTeX user trying to move to ConTeXt Mk IV. I'm having
trouble configuring my system on OS X. As a complete ConTeXt novice I'm
not sure how to debug this, but I really want to get Mk IV working for
some upcoming journal and book projects. Any suggestions would be
appreciated.
I understand that the current MacTeX/TeXLive 2009 testing versions have
a broken Mk IV due to an old Luatex, so I installed MacTeX 2009 for
testing and then upgraded Luatex to version 0.43 using the Contextgarden
instructions for Running Mark IV, regenerating the Context formats
etc. using:
luatools --generate
context --make --all
context --make cont-en
(is this necessary if I do --make --all?)
No, you can do without.
So far I can run a minimal test document and get pdf output, but I can't
use \showaccents, \showcharacters, etc. -- I get an undefined control
sequence error, The console output is below. I see the last line is
referring to a .mkii file, I suspect that's the problem but I don't know
how to get it to .mkiv...
You've got a working installation. These exact commands just happen to
be undefined in mkiv.
Best wishes,
Taco
