My goal is to be able to use LaTeX. Also I don't have a "context space": As non-Miktex-files I use currently only the executables luatex, mktexlsr (and kpswhich) and a texmf.cnf-file. > eventually i will make a plain variant (probably a bit more more plain > than plain) with basic open type support (for other formats you might > need to add --compile to the make call) If you mean a complete plainTeX-format: I at least don't need it much ;-) But what would be really fine were extracts of the context code: E.g. a bundle of self contained lua-code and tex-code that leds to an extended \font command (or a \font command with extended syntax similar to xetex) with opentype/ttf-support. If such a primitive were present it would be probably quite easy to write the LaTeX support e.g. by adapting fontspec. Or a bundle which can be used to convert other input encodings to utf8. Or a bundle of the code which sets catcodes and lccode etc. -- Ulrike Fischer ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
