No hit for the older versions. That is expected since I take files from TL and not from the latest W32TeX. I can and probably will change that, but at the time when I set up everything it was easier to just take files from TL.

There are different ways to use MkII: - texexec - context --pdftex - Use “% engine=pdftex” as first line of your document Wolfgang ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

So I'm good for now, for me that's just on the "annoyance" level as the update won't stick to running in the background.

Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." It's a problem of my clumsy scripts. Akira warned me a few hours ago.

[NTG-context] Newest ConTeXt in Windows7: kpathsea60.dll is missing ?
So,
I went and updated my ConTeXt today as I've got nothing really
critical going on.
I'm running ConTeXt on Windows 7 (64-bit) and I used
firstsetup.bat --modules=all
to update it. Everything works fine otherwise, but during the
installation process both mpost.exe and pdftex.exe complain that "The
program can't start because kpathsea60.dll is missing from your
computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
I've never seen that complaint before, but now I get it consistently,
also after rebooting and updating directly after restart. Both
eventually stop complaining after I'd clicked on OK multiple times
("yes,yes, just go on, will ya").
It doesn't seem critical (I don't use MetaPost and I run MKIV anyway)
- or at least the first test file compiled without complaints, but now
I'm wondering whether my Windows has a problem (MS update related,
maybe?) or whether the Suite has a problem in Windows. And my ConTeXt
is the newest available, because I'm now running version ConTeXt ver:
2011.12.23 09:52 MKIV and that's more recent than my most recent
working day before this. :-)
Thanks,
Mari
