Re: [NTG-context] SciTE configuration to use mkiv instead of mkii

Thanks for your responses. I should have specified that I am using Linux (Ubuntu). I don't have any previous SciTE configuration files in my home directory. I used the instructions from contextgarden and scite-context-readme.pdf, including creating a launch script that sets the PATH to include my context standalone binary. What I don't understand now is that SciTE finds the correct standalone binary but uses texexec to run mkii instead of mkiv as is supposed to be the defuault: ConTeXt ver: 2011.12.31 15:44 MKII and calls an old pdftex from a separate TexLive installation: This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.11 (TeX Live 2010) Any suggestions? Thanks.

It looks like you need to point Scite to /home/peter/context1220/texmf-mswin/bin (assuming you are using windows) in your PATH.

Hello, I installed and configured SciTE today to try it out. I am using the standalone distribution. When I try to process a context document with F7, SciTE calls texexec and uses mkii instead of mkiv (I always use mkiv/luatex). How do I configure SciTE to use mkiv?

Here's the beginning of the output:
