On my system, it's in texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf -- if that helps at all.
  

Well, on web2c-based systems (fpTeX, teTeX, TeXLive) one should be able
to find it using
kpsewhich texmf.cnf. If the TeX is not based on web2c, well, then you
have to look for another config file ;)
If I remember correctly, MiKTeX has a different file.

Under Windows there is under Start|Find (or something like that) the
possibility to search for a file (texmf.cnf);
Unix: locale texmf.cnf (or rather brutral: find / /usr /etc $HOME
-name texmf.cnf)

PS: I also get
   bash: texmfstart: command not found
Seemingly, it's time for a newer Linux (with teTeX 3) and a newer ConTeXt.

OK, I'm using MikTeX so obviously I should change the memory settings in
a different file then. 

MikTeX users out there - any pointers to what file I should be looking
for? I checked the installation PDF but there is no reference to the
name of the file.

Best regards,

Google is your friend. Try
http://www.miktex.org/manual/miktexinilayout.html#id585308
and there Memory Settings for TeX  Friends. the file is seeminly
named miktex.ini.

Many thanks, Tobias. I browsed the archives and it seems memory settings
for MikTeX can not be changed. Approx. 2 years ago, Sebastian Rooks

Drats, it looks like the hash size cannot be changed ... I'm
discussing this and similar issues with Christian, so I'll forward
the problem to him. If everything goes well it should be fixed in
the next upgrade. I'll keep you informed.

Pity! What TeX distributions are the other Windows users running, if not
MikTeX?

Thanks for all listmembers' help, anyway.

Well, TeXLive, fpTeX or Hans' stripped-down TeX version comes into my mind.

If you don't have the TeXLive CD (as several TeX user groups send their
members), try
- http://www.tug.org/texlive/
- http://www.fptex.org/
- http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-1.htm - minimal and stand-alone
ConTeXt distribution

Maybe some Windows users know others or can recommend which one is best
(with which editor).
(My last TeX under Windows was web2c/Windows [now named fpTeX], before
that YY TeX and before that emTeX; now I use teTeX under Linux.)

 this style is not adapted to low level english
 
 reimplementing this style could be a nice exercise (and tutorial) in doing xml
 with context, so if there are docbook users out there, a way to go can be:
 
 - someone makes a sample showing one docbook element usage
 - i make a mapping (thereby showing how/what mappings are needed)
 - someone else describes how to configure this
 
 we can collect this in a manual and the wiki
 
 if it's done stepwise i can spent spare time (i.e. big jobwaiting time) on it

Hi Hans  all,
I'm interesting about converting a Docbook file into ConTeXt source. 

Already read DocBook In ConTeXt of Simon Pepping and Michael
Wiedmann. But I would like to know if there is other way to obtain a
ConTeXt source from Docbook input (I'm Docbook's newbie).

Thank you,
Q.

Re: [NTG-context] Language issues

Hi MAts,
I use different installations:
c:\alpha-context a minimal distribution of Hans with the alpha version 
of ConTeXt (mswintex.zip + cont-lmt.zip)
c:\mytex a TeXlive installation based on TeXlive 2004
c:\newcontext a minimal distribution with the beta-version of ConTeXt 
(mswintex.zip + cont-lmt.zip).

I can only say, that Hans his minimal distributions are great. Minimal 
and still complete!

Kind regards
Willi

[NTG-context] creating horizontal space

2005-03-06 Thread Paul Tremblay
I am trying to create horizontal space in a footer and am having not
luck. Here is what I have tried; 


\definetext[chapStart8Footer][footer][\vbox{ {\hspace{2em} skip} space

Interestingly, the \hfill command works here, but \hspace doesn't.
