Hi Hans,
Looks like am never going to get out of my installation problems without getting the write way to do it.
Back to Bill's mc clain method, i have done the equivalent of this in XP:
mv cont-tmf.zip /usr/TeX/texmf cd /usr/TeX/texmf rm tex/context/base/* # safer to clean out old files first rm metapost/context/base/* # ...also remove metafun files rm metapost/context/*.mp # ...and any from an obsolete version unzip -a -L -o cont-tmf.zip # overwrites existing files
# Edit texexec.ini afterwards? cp context/config/texexec.rme context/config/texexec.ini
# Edit cont-sys.tex afterwards? Specifically: uncomment the line: # # \autoloadmapfilestrue # # For Metapost use, make sure these lines are uncommented: # # \runMPgraphicstrue # \runMPTEXgraphicstrue # \useMETAFUNformattrue cp tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme tex/context/user/cont-sys.tex
#
# Edit /usr/TeX/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf and ensure that "shell_escape = t". This
# is what TeX people somewhat obscurely call "write18 enabled".
#
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux # root doesn't have this on my system
texhash texexec --make en # en = english texexec --make --alone metafun mv metafun.mem /usr/TeX/texmf-var/web2c/metafun.mem texhash
exit # from "su root"
Now, nothing changed within my context version, still ConTeXt ver: 2003.9.25 fmt: 2004.8.17 int: english mes: english.
When i use a straight file (e.g AllInOneFile.tex) without the project structure another version of Context is used: ConTeXt ver: 2004.11.06 fmt: 2004.11.15 int: english mes: english
Things stay the same wether i use the --pdf option or not.
Many thanks :)
Dirar.
