Hallo!

I wanted to test the examples in 'metafun' from Hans Hagen:

The first Example, just metapost ('red circle'), was translated in a
PostScript-File.
I viewed the output with bmv and got a blue quarter circle at the left
lower origin.
I viewed it then with gv and got a centered grey circle.
The files rgb values are ok: 1,0,0

The second Example, with context, dosn't work.
texexec couldn't find texexec.ini.
I couldn't neither find texexec.ini nor texexec.rme, so I decided to
install 
a new version of context.

I unzipped cont-tmf.zip in /usr/share/texmf/

I missed the afm file for the included type1-font!

I renamed texexec.rme to texexec.ini and edited the following two lines:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
set  UsedInterfaces     to  de en nl metafun mptopdf 
set  UserInterface      to  de
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

then I renamed cont-usr.ori and cont-sys.ori to cont-usr.tex resp.
cont-sys.tex

texexec --make nl en de

worked, but

cont-de.efmt is copied to web2c
cont-en.efmt and cont-nl.efmt is copied to /context/config

(don't know if this was ok?)

texexec --make metafun

doesn't work (couldn't find cont-metafun)

There is an other interface in UsedInterfaces in texexec.ini 'mptopdf'
Should I make a formatfile for this too?

There is an other way to make the formates with texconfig.
Is that an alternativ way?

I tried the above second example (named tst2.tex) and got:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 TeXExec 2.1 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2000

            executable : pdfetex
                format : cont-en
             inputfile : tst2
                output : standard
             interface : en
          current mode : all
               TeX run : 1

sh: cont-en: command not found

              run time : 0 seconds
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-14f-released-20000525-2.1 (Web2C 7.3.1)
**
! End of file on the terminal... why?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

What happend?
Why is cont-en used. I have selected 'de' as  UserInterface in texexec.

So I don't know what to do.

Is there a fiendly answer to all of my questions?

Wolfgang
