Re: [NTG-context] typescript and font features bug?
Maybe that's why text in The Elements of Typographic Style disable the dlig feature? (In fact I love them and always enable dlig in my documents) BTW, all Adobe Fonts have a bug: they puts ligatures like Th into the liga feature, not dlig. But it is strange that other engines render it well... I know why now: I have two different copies in texmf-fonts and osfontdir... ___ 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 ___
Re: [NTG-context] Updating LuaTeX after MacTeX-TeXLive 2008 (again)
Hello Mojca, I seem to have run into the same or similar problems as Otared Kavian. I followed the instructions on the ConTeXt wiki, but the command ''luatools --generate'' gives the error message: 'LuaTools | error unable to identify cnf file LuaTools | error unable to identify cnf file LuaTools | no cnf files found (TEXMFCNF may not be set/known) LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.008 seconds', regardless of the directory from which I issue the command, and though there is a 28 KB file texmf.cnf sitting in /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf/web2c. As you succeeded in updating ConTeXt, luatex binary and ConTeXt scripts manually, could you please share the method with us. I for one am not sufficiently trained in unix to go there all by myself. (I'm working on a G4 PowerBook under OSX-10.4.11) Thank you in advance.

This has been known before the TL freeze, but Hans and Taco were
afraid to break other things if they upgraded ConTeXt. The issue only
affects mkiv on MacTeX, but users of mkiv should update frequently
anyway.
As you succeeded in updating ConTeXt, luatex binary and ConTeXt scripts
manually, could you please share the method with us. I for one am not
sufficiently trained in unix to go there all by myself.
(I'm working on a G4 PowerBook under OSX-10.4.11)
There are many different ways to do that. I use(d) the following
(hopefully no typos):
# update luatex - single line
# you can also use osx-ppc instead of osx-universal
# alternatively, use /usr/local/texlive/2008/bin/universal-darwin
instead of /usr/texbin
# on other platforms change accordingly
rsync -av
rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/bin/luatex/osx-universal/bin/luatex
/usr/texbin/
# update context - single line (you can also use beta instead of last current)
rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/context/current/
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/
I have also created (but it's not really needed)
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf/web2c/texmfcnf.lua
with
local conf = {}
conf.TEXMFCACHE = ~/Library/Caches/luatex
return conf
Of course you also need:
mktexlsr
texexec --make --all
texexec --make --xtx --all
luatools --generate
context --make

How can one find out how to adapt the new parameters (TEXMFCNF, and alike)? I would not adapt anything apart from TEXMFCACHE. I updated ConTeXt, luatex binary and ConTeXt scripts manually, and it works fine now, though I never use --updatecontext. What do you mean by manually? Do you mean unzipping the file context/current/cont-tmf.zip or context/beta/cont-tmf.zip into /usr/local/texlive or into either of /usr/local/texlive/2008 or /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local ? Thanks again for your attention: OK See the other post. I update ConTeXt directly into /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist, though updating into texmf-local or into ~/.texlive2008 would be just as valid. I update with rsync, but using the zips is just as fine. Apart from ConTeXt you also need to update LuaTeX binary (/usr/texbin = /usr/local/texlive/2008/bin/universal-darwin).

Now the problem is that my usual procedure for generating mkiv doesn't

with the previous version of MacTeX-TeXLive 2008).

I should say that I execute also the commands

None of these setting should be necessary any more, except for
TEXMFCACHE that you might set if you don't like luatex-cache to be
created in your home. But some answer is in the other thread.
