Hello,

I just downloaded the letter module and installed it by unzipping the t-letter.zip file into /usr/local/context_minimal/.

When I try a test letter:

\usemodule[letter]

\starttext \startletter It is raining again. \stopletter \stoptext

context fails with:

systems : system commands are enabled system : module letter not found (/usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/sort-lan.tex loading : Context Sorting Macros (languages) (/usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/sort-lan.mkii)) (/usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/pdfr-def.tex) systems : begin file ltrtest at line 3 ! Undefined control sequence. l.4 \startletter

?

The log file tells me

"ConTeXt ver: 2007.08.08 14:35 MKII fmt: 2008.5.6 int: english/english"

This is on a Gentoo Linux system.

Update the file database with 'mktexlsr' or 'texhash'.

texhash: Updating /usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf/ls-R... texhash: Updating /usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-extra/ls-R... texhash: Updating /usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-fonts/ls-R... texhash: Updating /usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-linux/ls-R... texhash: Updating /usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-local/ls-R... texhash: Done. Unfortunately that did not fix it. I get the exact same error. Thanks for your help. Roger

Unzip the archive either in '/usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-local/' or in in the local TeX tree in your home folder.

Thank you both very much. It is working now. I should learn to read log files more attentively. Best wishes, Roger
