MKii and MKiv differ in their behaviour of \input with respect to the .tex suffix. Consider the following program: \starttext reading file1.tex: \input file1\par reading file1a: \input file1a\par \stoptext Processing with mkii reads both files, but mkiv chokes on the second \input: ! I can't find file `file1a'. <to be read again> \par l.3 reading file1a: \input file1a\par
This seems a very nasty difference to me, because it will necessitate me to rename a great many files. Is this behaviour intended?
I would advise against using filenames without an extension, but nevertheless it would be nice if aux.find_file (I hope I got the function name right) would at least test for the existance of ./<filename> Hans (Hagen), is that OK with you? Best wishes, Taco
