It is a simple mapping to a 256 codepage: To quote from the documentation: However, WinEdt can transparently convert Unicode (UTF-8) documents into ACP when they are loaded and back to UTF-8 when they are saved. This makes it possible to work with UTF-8 documents as long as they can be converted into ACP (Ansi Code Page). -- Ulrike Fischer ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

The limited utf-8-support has been there for years. And it is really very limited: WinEdt is not capable to handle utf-8 documents that require more than one code page (eg. a mix of Russian and French). I don't care very much as I'm not using other scripts. In the few cases I need access to chars from other codepages I can use -notation.

Re: [NTG-context] New Release Winedt WORKS with MKIV!!
Update on using MikTeX 2.9, ConTeXt MKIV, Winedt 6.?!!! First let me thank Mojca, Aditya, Ulrike and Hans for looking into this. I received a suggestion to remove Miktex Full and install Miktex basic. That did NOT work as I like lucida and lucida math which will not function correctly using Miktex basic. So here is what I did to make it all work: 1. uninstall Miktex 2.9 basic 2. Install Miktex 2.9 complete 3.Go to Miktex\doc\latex\circuitikz and rename context.tex some other name. For some reason known only to Christian Schenk Miktex searches until it finds that sample and attempts to use it. So renaming that file allows luatex to "kick in and start processing". Finally success! now all I need to do is figure out how to invoke bibiliographies in MKIV using bibstyle econometrica. Thanks to all!!! ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Thanks a lot for this notice (and thanks to Ulrike for debugging). This is indeed very nice to know (it used to be my favourite editor a while ago). I always thought that supporting ConTeXt needs heavy hacking of WinEdt.

The problem is that in line 113, we have .ge5rö in Latin-1 encoding, but XeTeX tries reading the file in UTF-8. Has anyone encountered this error? Is there a solution? I only have a nasty hack: In the patterns directory, run (in bash) for file in *.pat *.hyp do iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 <$file >$file-u done and in mult-sys.tex, change the lines reading \definefileconstant {patternsextension} {pat} \definefileconstant {hyphensextension} {hyp} to \doifundefinedelse{XeTeXversion} {\definefileconstant {patternsextension} {pat} \definefileconstant {hyphensextension} {hyp}} {\definefileconstant {patternsextension} {pat-u} \definefileconstant {hyphensextension} {hyp-u}} There probably is a much better place for this change, but cont-new.tex, afaik, is not read when generating formats and I don't know where the code really should go. It mayalso be possible to fix the behaviour by some regime switchting in the .pat and .hyp files, but I know very little about those commands and haven't tested it.

It looks to me like context found a cont-err.tex when it should not have. At the end of a job, ConTeXt looks for a file named cont-err.tex, in the directory path that is set by the \setupsystem command in .tmp. This file itself is generated by texexec, and the directory value is based on "setuppath"). In your case, it looks like this directory entry is either incorrect, or there is a bug in context, because it finds and then loads the file while XML mode is still active. I do not know how to proceed from here. Hans? Cheers, taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

This is one reason why I do not use the standard directories (like texmf-local and texmf-dist, but texmf.local, texmf.gwtex, texmf.tetex), to catch path `hard coding' errors as soon as possible. Another possibility (also a type of hard coding error) is parsing the wrong texmf.cnf file yourself instead of asking for the right paths by using kpsewhich.

Strictly speaking it's not OSX, but i've a FreeBSD distro, which is close, and it works fine. Are you sure you have the permission to write in any of these paths?

I haven't changed my texmf.cnf, so the behavior of texexec --make has changed during one of the last releases, I guess 2006.01.16. And I'm just wondering if I can have the old behavior back as I prefer it. All best Thomas ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Is there a reason for this change, and is it possible to have them installed in the old place? I preferred that way because it keeps everything in one location.
