yes this works great. every change i make is directly visible after a
single texexec hit.

i use the LiveTeX PC version.

where do i do this?
in C:\texLive\texmf\tex\context\user\cont-sys.rme ?
and what do i type there?
Also i noticed a strange thing happening in the following file.
What i expect is a single line with a dotted label on each point of
the line. i see two lines, a single row of dots and two rows of
labels, one small one large...
You can tell that i'm not very good in telling the right thing to the
compiler :-)
but what should i tell?

running it twice is something i can live with, but if it will not solve the problem, then it is... what do i do wrong?
