6) It is my understanding that pret-xxx.lua files are obsolete. Is it correct? (If so, it would be nice to update the wiki to reflect that).
no, they are not obsolete (the scite lexers are often also syntax checkers so they are more strict) ... the pret files are more or less working in the same way (they date from before scite got that kind of lexers)
Thanks for your answers. I'd like to go with \definetyping then, because I need /BTEX../ETEX. I have found an old document of mine, which uses a (slightly customized) pret-c.lua, located inside the project's folder. It compiles, but I don't get syntax highlighting. Is it because pret-c is not searched in the project's directory? (According to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Verbatim#Pretty_printing the file should be found.) This is a minimal version: \setupinteraction [state=start] \setupcolors [state=start] \setuptyping [option=color] \definetyping [C][option=C, tab=4] \definecolor [Ccomment][darkblue] \definetyping [CPP] [option=C,tab=2, bodyfont=small] \starttext \startC int main() { return 0; } // Comment \stopC \startCPP int main() { return 0; } // Comment \stopCPP \stoptext Nicola
