I wrote a simple context file for pdf form filling. Translates fine, but the
resulting pdf simply shows text but no fillable forms. What's needed to
actually get forms?
Here's the tex code:
% interface=en tex=pdfetex output=pdftex
\starttext
Field 1: \fillinfield[name]{text that defines
try \setupinteraction[state=start]

TeX (in terms of source code, and easy of configuration) which was developed
from scratch. The user interface is quite similar to TeX. I do not know much
about the internal differences between Ant and TeX.

Hi!
At the moment I use Emacs Muse for writing my study notes which I then
have to submit as *.doc file (muse -- html - OO -- doc).
I like it 'cause it enables me to combine all the notes and convert into
ConTeXt later.

Hi.
Practically speaking, I expect it would be a lot like lyx with
tex built in. Who would design a document language without
front-end these days?
Maybe using LuaTeX + wxLua + Poppler is a better approach?

hope the answer to my question is not too obvious: How do I split not

There are still some areas where you need a programmable system, even
trivia like chapter dependant running titles (in ConTeXt: headertexts).
Isn't indesign programmable too ?
