[NTG-context] mp

22 Aug 2012

      Hi,

In the next version you can run mp files:

% test.mp

beginfig(1) ;

     fill fullcircle scaled 10cm withcolor 0.5red ;
     fill fullcircle scaled  4cm withcolor 0.5white ;

endfig ;

beginfig(2) ;

     fill fullcircle scaled 10cm withcolor 0.5green ;
     fill fullcircle scaled  5cm withcolor 0.5white ;

endfig ;

beginfig(3) ;

     fill fullcircle scaled 10cm withcolor 0.5blue ;
     fill fullcircle scaled  6cm withcolor 0.5white ;

endfig ;

as follows:

   context test.mp

and you'll get a pdf file with 3 pages that can be included with

   \externalfigure[test][page=1]
   \externalfigure[test][page=2]
   \externalfigure[test][page=3]

or used in different ways. Alteratively you can run

% test.tex

\starttext
     \processMPfigurefile{figures-001.mp}
\stoptext

In which case you can add styling directives in the preamble.
