I’d like to use MetaPost to generate all sorts of standalone graphics (ultimately converted to SVG). For various reasons (among others, MetaFun and advanced text processing) I want to use MetaPost as embedded in ConTeXt rather than a standalone installation.
---- metapost.mp ---- fill fullcircle scaled 10cm; ---- Whether I run context metapost.mp or mtxrun --script metapost metapost.mp I get a PDF document that contains no page. The mtxrun version generates the following temp file: ---- mptopdf-temp.tex ---- \starttext \startMPinclusions fill fullcircle scaled 10cm; \stopMPinclusions \stoptext ---- Looking at the wiki, it seems that \startMPinclusions is not meant to actually render any content, just to include MetaPost code like function definitions. I guess I would have expected \startMPpage instead. Am I doing something wrong, or is that an error in ConTeXt?
