I am an ignoramus I know, but running context starts with the message: TeXExec | no ctx file found It seems quite normal because the "first document" on the wiki also shows this message. I searched the wiki in vain through "ctx" and ".ctx" for an explanation of its purpose. Can someone point me to that info? Hans van der Meer

Ctx files are optional, and contain commands for preprocessing sources (like running xsltproc). The relevant manual: http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/xmanipulate.pdf I must say I have never (knowingly) used one. Best wishes, Taco

harmless message; we use ctx file in our projects, so there the message is handy; by using ctxfiles one can simplify command lines; some of the functionality now present in texexec (--pdf*) will move to ctxfiles
