A circle appear under the frame. But I have 3 runs ( texexec, mpost,

Now, what is my goal ?
To achieve a circle under the frame as quick as possible.
For 3.a, in f.log I find
mpost -progname=mpost -mem=metafun f-mpgraph
system()...disabled.
An attempt to run mpost failed: no circle, goal unsatisfied.
For 3.b, I run manually mpost (and then again texexec): goal satisfied.
With shell_export=t, 3.a) is ok, but f.log says
system(mpost -progname=mpost -mem=metafun f-mpgraph)...executed.
So it seems that my goal can be achieved only with a run of mpost.
With XYPic, a similar result can be achieved without mpost:

Of course this doesn't mean that XY is better/worse than mpost, nor that
using mpost coupled with context will be always slow than others ways;
but sometimes a faster alternative may be required.
Sure for XYPic, name spaces collisions, cpu/memory required, syntax are
(some) items
to consider: but it also comes with a bunch of features and may be
faster than mpost
in some circumstances.
[OT] XFIG: fig2dev can be export to metapost and in multi-metapost.
Hence, from the moon, I see that xfig can be used with context.

No circle under frame, right? If not, I have a bad installation; please

A circle appear under the frame. But I have 3 runs ( texexec, mpost,
texexec).
Yes, the cases 3a = 3b should have at least 3 runs. With shell_escape=t
only 2 are needed. You are right.
With XYPic, a similar result can be achieved without mpost:

All right, I agree for somebody and sometimes xypic might be use with
advantage. I was thinkink about general recommendation.

Export to context is good news. But still no parametrization possible :-(

Re: [NTG-context] XYpic
Vit, the last things.
After that I consider this topic closed.
+ limitation by substance: drawing is mostly done via fonts
Yes, I forget to write it.
[XFIG]..Export to context is good news. But still no parametrization
possible :-(
..maybe something to play this summer...
Now for metapost:
shell_escape= f
in texmf.cnf
so \write18 is disabled.
$texexec --pdf f
No circle; it seems right, because f.log says
systems: randomizer starts with 797065300
mpost -progname=mpost -mem=metafun f-mpgraph
system()...disabled.
$ shell_escape=x ; texutil --purgeall; texexec --pdf f
As before.
$ shell_escape= ; texutil --purgeall; texexec --pdf f
As before.
$ shell_escape=t ; texutil --purgeall; texexec --pdf f
Circle ok; again it's right, f.log says
systems: randomizer starts with 800565448
system(mpost -progname=mpost -mem=metafun f-mpgraph)...executed.
$ shell_escape=f ; texutil --purgeall; texexec --pdf f
Strange:circle again.
I found into texexec.pl
if (($ENV{shell_escape} eq 'f') || ($ENV{SHELL_ESCAPE} eq 'f')) {
$AutoMPRun = 1 ;
}
Hence texexec/texutil has called mpost instead of \write18; it's like
shell_escape=t
(for this task, not in general sense, of course)
Hmm, it's not crystal clear:
shell_escape=f means shell_escape is False
shell_escape=t means shell_escape is True
but for processing f.tex 'True and False are the same'
$shell_escape=; texutil --purge; texexec --pdf --automprun f
Circle ok; it seems right, because I force execution of mpost.
Again, many thanks

Dear Henning,
before I started to use context I had prepared some diagrams in xypic.
It was the only way I knew for creating vector graphics for both tex and
pdftex with text and graphics interaction possibility.

1) Xypic has the most obscure syntax I have ever seen.
2) Nobody knows if there are not some name-space problems (redefinitions).
3) Metapost is naturaly incorporated to context, strongly supported,
