While I don't doubt that it is possible to use context minimal beside a miktex installation to some extent and also to use some of the miktex ressources when doing it (I have done something similar when miktex hadn't luatex yet) I doubt _very_ much that one can get a "Context latest beta running under MikTeX" in this way. If this context is running the newest luatex from the minimals I don't see how it should be able to see the roots of miktex without manipulating the texmf.cnf first, or use the filename database of miktex (FNDB) at all, or use the tools of miktex (like on-the-fly installation, or format generation through miktex settings). Barney is probably simply using context minimals and this will work fine as long as miktex doesn't interfere (e.g. through name clashes in the executables). -- Ulrike Fischer ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : [email protected] / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
