Re: [NTG-context] Can I use mkii and mkiv side by side?

Hi Keith, I got it! With the proper setting of paths it works without sourcing setuptex. Thus I have for my installation of mkii: ---------------------------------------------- #!/bin/bash export PATH=/Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH texexec --autogenerate --synctex=1 "$1" ---------------------------------------------- Many thanks again! Best regards: OK

Hi Otared,

actually, just setting the PATH variable will work, but you have to set it with the proper command!

The Standard TexShop engines use the tcsh shell and not bash !!

either change the first line to #!/bin/tcsh

or set the path bash style export PATH=/Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH

I put the standard PATH behind the minimals path so that it is searched first!

Hi Keith,

Thanks for your attention. Indeed I use the latest TeXShop (version 3.49) but regarding the content my mkii.engine file if I remove the line

source /Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/setuptex

then I cannot typeset with my standalone installation of Context: I tried to use a set path such as

set path = ($path /Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin)

but I get an error message telling me:

/Users/kavian/Library/TeXShop/Engines/mkii.engine: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `(' /Users/kavian/Library/TeXShop/Engines/mkii.engine: line 3: `set path = ($path /Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin)’

So at this point I have to keep the instruction to source the setuptex file in order to typeset either with mkii or mkiv, using the standalone Context.

Best regards: OK
