hi everybody,
after a 2 year hiatus I'm just giving `context' a second try (so, really not much experience so far).
I updated to the latest version (0.63) before proceeding.
0.63 what? luatex? then you need to check things as we're beyond 1.00 now
I was refering to the `context --version' output: resolvers | trees | analyzing 'home:texmf' mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 0.63 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: path_to/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2017.01.17 17:37 I _was_ under the impression that this is current since I did an update and `current version' gives a date from last week. or that's what I believed would happen, when re-running `first-setup.sh': am I mistaken? if this is a stupid question I'd accept a RTFM answer ;-).
two observations:
1. in a new document including assorted equations everything went fine until I tried something like
\startformula x = \left 1 + 2 \right \stopformula
\left( ... \right)
left and right take an argument that has to be some known open or close operator
yes, I know. sorry for the glitch. I _meant_ \startformula x = \left ( 1 + 2 \right ) \stopformula and _that_ is what's still causes the `Undefined control sequence' (both, in the new as well as the two year old unmodified document) -- actually it is thus reported in the error message (in the previous mail, too): "l.472 x = \left ( 1 + 2 \right )"
which caused an error:
8<------------------------------------------------------------------ ! Undefined control sequence
\strc_synonyms_insert_meaning ...urrentsynonymtag {#2}\fastsetup {\??simplel... \math_left ...ame \??mathleft \meaning \nexttoken \endcsname \expandafter \l... l.472 x = \left ( 1 + 2 \right ) 8<------------------------------------------------------------------
2. an old document (not modified these 2 years) does no longer compile due to apparently the same problem (not understanding `\left', `\right'.
question: my understanding is, that `context' supports "everything" out of the box (notably equations) and there is no need for explicit loading of additional packages? so `\left' etc. _should be defined (and it _used_ to work 2 years ago)? what am I missing?
thx, joerg
