 And if both texexec.ini's are removed:

 newtexexec.rb (which will replace texexec.pl) has no ini file but

 'texexec --verbose' tries to compile all the files in the aktuel
 path.

 but

 'texmfstart texexec.pl --verbose' works ok.

 same with

 'texexec --make --all' doesn't work

 but 

 'texmfstart texexec.pl --make --all' works!
 
 
 good
 

 upps?

 texexec (without parameters)

 compiles cscite.bat! Why?
   
strange indeed

can you run texmfstart texexec and see what happens then
  
   
 on windows: you need to associate the pl suffix to perl
 on linux you need to make  texexec into a script (suffixless)

 on both you can best use texmfstart to launch the scripts since
 that's 
 upward compatible (and in some respects this call is more clever);
 if 
 needef you can create stubs with texmfstart (see manual)
 

 This works!

 But next Problem:

 pdfetex can not find pk-fonts.

 I have written: 

 PKFONTS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/pk//

 in 'texmf.cnf'

 font-file lies in

 texmf-project/fonts/pk/ricoh/local/msl/msl50.pk

 what else can I do?
   
ok, that's another problem (once solved you know a bit about tex and fonts) ... 
it looks like there is a problem with locating fonts ... what 
font is that: msl50 ? 

(the minimal distribution does not have such a font)

  Is this normal? Or is this a symptome of the problem I am looking

 it depends on what system you use; the settinsg default to 
 tetex/fptex/gwtex so in that case no ini is needed

[NTG-context] Problems with Standalone distribution

2006-03-31 Thread wwl
Hallo!

Some months ago I have downloaded 'mswincontext.zip'.

There were a lot of Problems and I tried to solve them.
I could finally compile some files. But then I get new problems and 
so I decided to start over and ask the list for help.

First Problem (may be the mother of all the others):

The Batch-Files 'cdemo.bat' and 'cscite.bat' are using for example 
%~s1 for the first placeholder on the commandline.

My Windowssystem (ME) doesn't understand this.

Are there other Batch-Files that work on older commandoprozessors to 
download?

A second question:

There exists an directory 'usr\local\context\tex\texmf\texmf' which 
contains fontinformation to one single fontfamily 'cb'.

Is this ok: 'texmf' under 'texmf'? And why ist this there?

Wolfgang

hm, not on my machine; you can try:

@echo off

usr\local\context\cscite.bat

(i dunno if there's a way to test if we run me)

 A second question:

 There exists an directory 'usr\local\context\tex\texmf\texmf' which 
 contains fontinformation to one single fontfamily 'cb'.

thats a bug (i thought that i had solved it -)

As I said, I can change these two batch-files. But I am not shure if

Should I move this subtree one level higher or delete it?

ok! I have modified the batch-files.

Next Problems: 

texexec.ini is not found in 'context\config'
I copyed it in 'scripts\context\perl'
now it is found. 

'texexec --verbose' tries to compile all the files in the aktuel 
path.

but

'texmfstart texexec.pl --verbose' works ok.

same with

'texexec --make --all' doesn't work

but 

'texmfstart texexec.pl --make --all' works!

formatfiles will generatet under '.\pdfetex' relativ to the aktual 
path.
