You need to run something like (single line!!!): C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex in command prompt. For "texexec --module --pdf core-tab.tex" to work you need to be in context base folder (tex/context/base; kpse makes sure that you find & take the proper file automatically), and you probably need to report a few problems in the source to be able to compile that particular source file :) Mojca ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
