Re: [NTG-context] TeXWorks and synctex SOLVED
For those searching in future, the minimum needed to make synctex work with ConTeXt and TeXShop on macOS Monterey is: 1) Reasonably new LMTX. I have version 2021.12.10 11:41. (It might well work going back a few versions but not too far.) 2) TeXShop version 4.68 3) TeXShop -> Preferences -> Engines -> Alternate path *must* be set to your LMTX installation. For me on an Intel Mac that is: /Users/bruce/Applications/context-osx-64/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin TeXShop uses this path to launch the program it needs to convert a synctex location into a file name and line number. If this path is wrong then the editor just does nothing. 4) These two lines at the top of each source file you want to sync to/from: % !TEX useAlternatePath % !TEX useConTeXtSyncParser 5) Either --synctex="1" on the command line in the .engine file or \setupsynctex [state=start, method=max] somewhere in your source (which can be in the current file or in an environment file). 6) Most times you will need to quit and restart TeXShop when you change any of the above. You *do not* need: 1) You do not need the "ConTeXt2021.engine" file: you can use your own engine file as long as it invokes your local LMTX. So, for me, the two key commands in the .engine file are: set path=(/Users/bruce/Applications/context-osx-64/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin $path /Library/TeX/texbin /usr/texbin /usr/local/bin) mtxrun --script context --autogenerate "$1" 2) You do not need the following magic line: % !TEX TS-program = ConTeXt2021 If you do include it then it will override the engine you select from the drop down. Hopefully this answer will help others with this problem:- at least until the version of ConTeXt shipped with TexShop is new enough to support the new synctex and then there won't be any need to configure anything. > On 13 Dec 2021, at 09:45, Bruce Horrocks via ntg-context > wrote: > > I'm having trouble getting the new synctex to work on a Mac.

Hi Arthur, I opened an issue on this topic at GitHub, but I didn’t know there were a mailing list. I have just subscribed to the list, but it seems I have to wait for moderation ;-). I read in the wiki (at GitHub) that adding a script could be an option. But this would be an option for me. Not for a newbie. I mean, I wouldn’t mind to add the script in a computer for a friend. But I would do that myself. Otherwise, it doesn’t have to be dangerous, but it would be extremely hard for people without previous experience. > I agree that TeXworks is probably on the best choices for newcomers. On the top of the feature that TeXworks is newcomers-friendly, it has also been designed with ConTeXt in mind.

Re: [NTG-context] TeXworks or TeXItEasy as ConTeXt editors
Hi Pablo, I use to work (to compile) on ConTeXt documents only with TeXworks (on Linux and Windows). Then I guess you're much more able to work with TeXWork than me ! It's very useful and it allows double windows simultaneously : on left your ctx code, on right the pdf output. You only have to configure two things : the path where texworks finds context executable (~/home/context/tex/texmf-linux32/bin or /.../linux64/bin, and the same for Microsoft Windows). And a to give a little parameter to TeXworks. I am afraid that you have to read my French explanation here : https://fr.wikibooks.org/wiki/ConTeXt#Installation_et_configuration_de_TeXWorks But I translate the most important (point 3 of the link given above): When TeXworks is open, go to "Typesetting/Composition" within the "Edition =>Preferences" menu. The inferior table "Processing Tools", just create a new tool by clicking on "+" and write "ConTeXt MKIV". In the field "Program", give the path to "context.exe", the same given above. Inside the mask "Arguments" add "$fullname" AND THAT'S ALL ! (Now you are under TeXworks : you must have "ConTeXt MKIV" just beside the green arrow. If your compilation doesn't work maybe it is because you are trying to compile your *.tex file with another executable (pdftex, pdflatex, or anything else...). Very good idea to build some Spanish documentation on ConTeXt ! Hope it may helps !

Renaming this solved it... has to do with the fact that these are user prefs and stored in a system dependent way (only windows can be configured); this will chang ein future versions of texworks * ... almost. In the TeXworks.ini file I also had to replace all occurunces of 'mtxrun.cmd' (doesn't work on linux, is this correct for Windows?) with 'mtxrun'. needs testing I wish I could help solve these points, but since I'm not much of a programmer I cannot solve the first issue, and the other are just a matter of renaming/replacing??

[NTG-context] texworks with context on linux
Hi, Yesterday I wanted to try out texworks for editing and typesetting my context documents. I installed texworks from the ubuntu launchpad ppa since '--goodies=texworks' doesn't work on linux-64, yet. Then I ran into a few problems: * The script mtx-texworks.lua wasn't able to start texworks because unable to locate texworks. In the loop that's searching all the binpaths I put in 'logs.simple(%s,p)' and found out that binpaths only consists of one element: the complete PATH variable. I guess it means that there's something wrong with the function file.split_path, but I don't understand what's happening there. When I replaced the loop with 'p=/usr/bin/texworks' texworks started as expected. * However the typesetting engines were not correctly set up. Texworks (at least on linux) seems to be looking for a file TeXworks.ini. The one in the minimals distribution is called texworks.ini. Renaming this solved it... * ... almost. In the TeXworks.ini file I also had to replace all occurunces of 'mtxrun.cmd' (doesn't work on linux, is this correct for Windows?) with 'mtxrun'. I wish I could help solve these points, but since I'm not much of a programmer I cannot solve the first issue, and the other are just a matter of renaming/replacing??

Re: [NTG-context] TeXworks
2008/11/29 Taco Hoekwater [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I actually found it to work nicely (on windows XP) as long as all the ConTeXt-related environment-variables are set, *and* given that the path to the context-executables has been set in TeXworks' properties dialogue. I am running it on linux with the context-minimals with exactly *no* variables set, just the additional path entry in the properties. found the problem wrong linked texmfstart Works nice now -- Diego Depaoli ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
