[NTG-context] String single quote in \tt

2006-09-11 Thread Aditya Mahajan
Hi, I just noticed that in the preprocessing manual, the single quotes are wrong. Look at the output of \starttext \starttyping let a = 'string' ; \stoptyping \mono{ let a = 'string' ;} {\tt let a = 'string' ;} \stoptext The singlequote character is converted into rightquote. This

[NTG-context] Making context produce dvi file.

For one recurring task I first produce a booklet version 5.5. x 8.5in, then a straight pdf 8.5 x 11in, all controlled by modes. The third format is plain text. Others recommend dvi2tty for this conversion. But how do I get Context to produce a dvi file? The Context manual does not make this clear.
