Hi every Context lover/user, I came to using xmltools for building an long (boring) list of folders&files, with the idea of sharing a cdrom with "automount" niceties (shellexec.exe & autorun.inf telling to open the generated pdf). The problem is that xmltool apparently ("skip" certain portions ?) don't "recognise" or "retranscribe" a full path, i.e if a real path is root(K:\MESDOC\COURS\05-TEB~1\000_ZI~1)\01-at1-repres_graphic_gene\01-s8910-metre_infra\cours-ppes-metre-go-0506.pdf firefox answer that (//media/cdrom0)/cours-ppes-metre-go-0506.pdf. is unreachable ------------.tex file for creating xmldir.xml : \useregime[il1] \enableregime[il1] \useencoding[ffr] \mainlanguage[fr] \executesystemcommand % {texmfstart xmltools --dir --recurse --root=K:/Mesdoc/cours/05-teb-0506/000_zip-tout --pattern={*.pdf,*.xls} --output=xmldir.xml} {texmfstart xmltools --dir --recurse --pattern=*.* --output=xmldir.xml} ---------- command for making pdf from xmldir.xml : texmfstart newtexexec.rb --autopdf --pdf --mode=colorscheme-red --xml --use=dir-01 --pdf xmldir.xml (I've tried also : texmfstart newtexexec.rb --autopdf --pdf --mode=colorscheme-red --root=K:/Mesdoc/cours/05-teb-0506/000_zip-tout --xml --use=dir-01 --pdf xmldir.xml : without success) ---------- TIA for any answer -- Olivier TURLIER CRP La Rouguière 101 Bd des Libérateurs 13367 MARSEILLE CEDEX 11 tel : (33) 04 91 18 56 00
