I have some plaintex code to run from the ConTeXt beta-distribution, because I didn't install the complete TeXp-distribution (and if possible prefer to keep it that way).

I did not fare well with running "texexec --make plain" and "mtxrun --script plain myfile.tex" The first command does not give a sign of dumping the plain format somewhere, the second command complains "I can't find the format file luatex-plain.fmt"

It looks if I am on the wrong track for using luatex with plain. Will someone please be so kind to turn me in the right direction?

mtxrun --script plain --make

While you’re at it, could you please report back whether this succeeds immediately or bombs out like so:

Preloading the plain format: codes, registers, parameters, fonts, more fonts, ! Font \preloaded=manfnt not loadable: metric data not found or bad. <to be read again> \par

Hans

However the plain TeX format from the standalone does not produce anything with the following minimal example:

%%% begin test-plaintex.tex This is intended to test Plain \TeX\ from the ConTeXt stand-alone.

An elementary identity: $(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2$. And a well-known identity due to Leonhard Euler in which the five most important numbers appear: $$ {\rm e}^{{\rm i}\pi} + 1 = 0, \qquad \hbox{where }\; {\rm i} := \sqrt{-1}. $$

\bye %%% end test-plaintex.tex

Saying in the Terminal: mtxrun --script plain basic-plaintex.tex

results in mtx-plain | running command 'luatex --fmt=luatex-plain "basic-plaintex.tex »’ This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.79.1 (TeX Live 2014/dev) (rev 4972) \write18 enabled.

Sorry for the mismatch in the names: the file I tested is named basic-plaintex.tex, that’s why the message from Plain LuaTeX refers to that name. While putting that minimal example in my message, I surrounded it with

%%% begin test-plaintex.tex

%%% end test-plaintex.tex

I should have said %%% begin basic-plaintex.tex

indeed…

Thanks for testing, but actually this is not a big issue, since one can use the plain LuaTeX from TexLive 2014. But maybe it is useful to understand what is lacking in the stand-alone ConTeXt for this to run correctly.

indeed, also (at least for me) the plain shipped with context is the reference Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hello Werner! ·········

I can’t figure out how to change the chapter heading. More important: I have no idea where to find the needed information. What I want to see is for example:

Kapitel: Blablabla

Several unnumbered structures are predefined. \setuphead [subject] [before=Kapitel~] \starttext \startsubject [title=foo] \input knuth \stopsubject \stoptext If you wish for the styles of the label and the title to match, you’ll have to assign them manually: \definealternativestyle [subjectstyle] [\italic \tfd] \setuphead [subject] [ style=subjectstyle, before=\bgroup \subjectstyle Kapitel~\egroup, ] \starttext \startsubject [title=foo] \input knuth \stopsubject \stoptext The reason as to why this isn’t as easy as \setuplabeltext [chapter=Kapitel] \setuphead [chapter] [number=no] is that the section label is treated as part of the number. Consequently, Context exposes no option to typeset the label independently. However, it can be made work by passing an appropriate command that omits the number: \setuplabeltext [chapter=Kapitel] \setuphead [chapter] [deepnumbercommand=\gobbleoneargument] \starttext \startchapter [title=foo] \input knuth \stopchapter \stoptext

Where can I find these informations?

In the manual [0]. The \title and \subject structurals even made the second place on the “top ten” ladder of important commands (cf. section 1.10). The numberless versions also feature promintently on the wiki [1]. PS Next time you ask a new question, please open a new thread with an adequate subject to keep the list tidy. Best regards, Philipp [0] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_reference_manual [1] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles#Default

Anayway. Thanks for your response. In the meantime I found another solution:

\starttext

\define[2]\MyChapter {#1.\,Kapitel: #2} \setuphead [chapter] [command=\MyChapter, page=no]

Yes, that a valid solution as well. Good luck! Philipp

Aha. I see. Two possibilities more. But I forgot another problem. All these solutions give me »1.2. Kapitel« - »1.2. Kapitel« etc. if it’s the first part. I don’t unterstand the mechanism and so I don’t know where to look for the solution.
