I downloaded, reinstalled, made the usual incantations, and added 
the command you suggested:
texexec --make --alone en nl

Now things work. Only the spirits know why.

Re: [NTG-context] extensie pl

2003-12-31 Thread Willi Egger 
Hi Wilfried,

Of course I do not know what ind of installation zou run. Still the 
operating system must be able to find the executable "texexexec.exe". 
This file resides normally in the \texmf\bin directory. So what you need 
to do is to set the environment variable (Windows XP) or the path (other 
windows systems) also to this directory.

Ik ben overigens een absolute beginner in context. Ik vind op het net 
echter nergens een echte beginnershandleiding die alles van naaldje 
tot draadje uitlegt. Het lijkt een wereldje waar je zelf alles moet 
uitzoeken. Is dit zo?

I have done the essentially same for SGI Irix and linux (at home), and
also installed pdftex-1.11b from source and a newer cont-all.zip.  I do
keep my existing texmf-local/context/config/texexe.ini.  I can't reproduce
the problem on Irix using acroread 4.

d-en-all works here (except for the missing graphics):

This is pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.11b-2.1 (Web2C 7.5.2) (format=cont-en
2003.10.14)  31 DEC 2003 08:11

ConTeXt  ver: 2003.9.26  fmt: 2003.10.14  int: english  mes: english

Thinking the problem might be with the 2003.12.18 version of ConTeXt,
I installed http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/cont-tmf.zip and rebuilt the
formats:

ConTeXt  ver: 2003.12.18  fmt: 2003.12.31  int: english  mes: english

I also checked the default texexec.ini:

$ mv  ./context/config/texexec.rme  ./context/config/texexec.ini
$ texhash .
texhash: Updating /user/gwhite/texmf/./ls-R...
texhash: Done.

The next step would be to compare "texexec --verbose" for the two
configurations, and also the contents of the .tuo and .tui files.

If I TeX this

both n and D are \rm instead of italic. I know that it worked once.
it still does ...

add \bigmath before \starttext

(or: use \chardef\synchronizebigmathflag=2)

it's a kind of speedup to have it disabled, of course you can add it to 
your local copy of cont-sys.tex -)
