I downloaded the latest (well yesterday's) version of the install iso for TeXlive 8. It is still beta.
Unlike TeXlive 7 Context did not work after install. The missing piece was the little script: /usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux/texexec So I copied that piece of code over from TeXlive 7 and waved my apprentice's wand over the system a few times, per the instructions in texexec.rme: cp ../texexec.rme texexec.ini texexec --verbose texexec --make fmtutil --all texhash (The last two just for a security blanket) ...and I now have Context up and presumably running correctly. So perhaps before TeXlive 8 becomes final final, someone should insert that little script where it belongs in the distro. To find the address for the beta google (groups ) under John Culleton and TeXlive. Someone was kind enough to give it to me. Unfortunately my internet connection is almost kaput thanks to that stupid Microsoft virus. I am connected but when I ping three packets I only get back one. This message may get there someday. Or maybe not. John Culleton John Culleton _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
