I have decided to try conTeXt. So far I had a very quick look at the
documentation, and tried a few files, but I have experienced a few problems.

I have tried to use the m-bib module, but, so far I have not been able to
produce the list of the publications. I have tried the following code.


\usemodule[bib]

\setupbibtex[database={string,tesi}]

\starttext

\cite[fitting:83]

\cite[smullyan:68]

\completepublications

\stoptext

and then

texexec --once <myfile>
bibtex <myfile>
texexec <myfile>

the file <myfile>.bbl has been generated successfully, as well as the
citations in the text, but the list of the publications is missing.

I would like to use calligraphic (\mathcal) and latex symbols in ConTeXt
(for example \Box). So far I have not found how to use them. Is there an
easy way?

I think there is a small bug in the math-tex.tex file (3/07/2001). \flat
produces the union symbol, and no command produces the flat symbol.

Finally, so far, I have not been able to compile successfully with
postscript fonts

\setupbodyfont[pos]

I use the last fpTeX distribution 0.5 on Windows XP.

Thanks
