RE: [NTG-context] automating initialization

Dear gang,

How do I automate initialization of the separate context tree (from mswintex.zip)? A simple batch file such as

======================================== setuptex c:\context texexec foo ========================================

does not work; the batch file always turns itself off before texexec can be invoked. Can I make the initialization global so that all batch files (such as those called by WinEDT) will work properly? I added c:\context to the path but that is not enough.

BTW: Can initialization be turned off as well?

you can associate batch files to a cmd window, (open action);

can you give me an example?

in winedt you shoul dadd the lines to their bat files (or ask the author to provide an initialization option)

Well, the following seems to work for now: ======================================== call setuptex c:\context texexec foo ======================================== I am pretty ignorant of DOS but <call> seems to solve the problem for now. Now my WinEDT batch files for pdfetex and aleph can work. Best Idris Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523
