Hi Willi, I used vim/gvim in the past and switched to emacs. I write all my stuff with ConTeXt and with some tweaking of the commands you can also make mkiv run inside of emacs. also nice is to write your metapost and use the metapost mode for it that can generate a preview inside emacs for you.

Hi John, What Wolfgang said: `\product X` should be processed once inside `\startproject` environments, and never otherwise. And you should probably have products as your build targets, not projects. @Hans: when I looked at the `processors` table in file-job.lua, I found some discrepancies
