Hi Hans, It doesn’t keep failing for me because the fix is well documented, so I fixed it on my machine. I am just imagining that it might be nice to put that fix in the modules that people download. For example, a teacher wants to help me test my book, so he followed the instructions on the wiki to instal ConTeXt (LMTX) and the modules (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules). Then he had to go in and change two commands the file: context-osx-64/tex/texmf-modules/generic/pgfplots/pgfplots.code.tex The changes are: Line 7928: change “\begin{axis}" to “\axis” Line 7934: change “\end{axis}" to “\endaxis” Then everything is great. I don't know where the modules live and how they are maintained, but if this fix could be put into those modules before people download them, that would be helpful as I add more collaborators. Thanks!
