Do you do any of that? I know about write18 and it is turned off bacause I have to ship a default `secure' setup. What the Metapost issue is, you'll have to explain. If so, what configuration steps do you take? Me personally, none. I use ConTeXt and it works fine as is. Let me be a bit more clear. If you want me to change my redistributions, you will have to make clear I understand what is needed and why. Most often it has just been something like add this or change size setting that. But here, I have no idea what does not work for you and in howfar configuration issues are the point to address. In cases like these, the best way is to send me a small example. If a change would require a non-secure standard config, I will not do it. Nor will I if there is a reasonable run-time (not configure time) workaround (e.g. adding -shell-escape to tex can be done runtime and is thus a better security strategy than turning it on by default). If it is possible to offer some configuration options to the user, I will investigate. G ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] texmfstart.exe vs. texmfstart.rb
Hi Hans and Taco, Thanks to all your guidance and a lot of trial and error, now I have a SciTE under windwos XP which works. There is one strange feature though. I had to put the .exe version of texmfstart into the scripts ruby scripts folder so that my files get compiled. SciTE can't understand that texmfstart.rb is there and ruby is installed. Before I copy the .exe version to this directory, I could run all texmfstart commands from the command line without any problem, but from within SciTE the commands won't run. What is the difference between the two versions? And why SciTE can't understand that ruby scripts are in system path and run them? Best regards, -h ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] New bib beta (release candidate)
Hi all, I have finally uploaded a new beta for the bib module. I really hope this is the last one before a normal release in a week or two. http://tex.aanhet.net/bib/m-bib-beta-20060205.zip I do not intend to do any more work on the still open limitations/ wishlist at this time, because synchronisation with the standard context distibution is becoming an issue. Only the documentation still needs to be fixed, and of course any fatal bugs that may be in this beta. Compared to the november 23 beta, the following things have changed (many thanks to the people who pointed out bugs and submitted fixes): * Make right-aligned labels work even if autohang=no * Use 'et al.' instead of 'et.al.'. * Additional headtext for cz * Keep whitespace after \cite with single argument * Fix broken \cite-with-braced-argument * Fix \usepublications not finding it's files * Fix compressed version of authoryear style !!* Renamed the \url and \type to \biburl and \bibtype Most of those are only fixes and should not bother you, but watch out for that last one, it breaks compatibility. I really had to do this, because \url and \type clashed heavily with predefined context commands, but it invalidates some existent bbl files, sorry.
