Hello, I'm trying "ConTeXt on CD" using http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/tex.iso.bz2 First of all: it is really amazing ! Everything needed for ContTeXt on one CD and ready to use. I'll keep this CD in my pocket for now :-) Since I'm a nasty user, here are a suggestion and some problems: 1/ What about adding a shortcut to cscite.bat under the CD's root or an autorun.inf? It would be much more natural than usr/local/context/cscite.bat 2/ With the last version, 29-Mar-2004 21:35, when I try to "compile" readme.tex (copied on hard-disk and opened with scite) with Ctrl+F7 (concheck readme.tex) I've got a "file not found" error. 3/ When I try to build the same file I've got the following error: fonts : [palatino] [texnansi] [] ! I can't find file `.\type-syn'. <to be read again> \relax \dodoreadfile ...normalinput \readfilename \relax \the \everyafterreadfile \dododousetypescript ...ile \donothing \donothing \popmacro \currenttypefile... \next1 #1,->\dododousetypescript {#1} \doprocesscommaitem <argument> \relax type-syn, type-enc,type-siz,type-map,type-spe,type-exa,type... \doprocesscommalist ...aitem \gobbleoneargument #1 ,]\relax \global \advance ... ... l.5 \setupbodyfont [palatino,12pt] Please type another input file name: If I replace \usetypescript[palatino][\defaultencoding] \setupbodyfont[palatino,12pt] with \setupbodyfont[12pt] A readme.pdf file is produced. 4/ I can open the readme.pdf file with acrobat but Crtl+2 (Tools/View PDF file) a message box pop up with the message: Error while launching "gsview32.exe" with Params: "readme.pdf" The specified file was not found. Thank you once again Mr Hagen, for ConTeXt and now for its CD :-)

i'd like that but somehow i cannot get the icon working; i'm thinking of a root startup as well (extra); the /usr construct is needed because we have more than context -)

hm, will check it
3/ When I try to build the same file I've got the following error: fonts : [palatino] [texnansi] [] ! I can't find file `.\type-syn'.
i ran into that too and spent the weekend sorting it out; i'll upload a new version tomorrow
4/ I can open the readme.pdf file with acrobat but Crtl+2 (Tools/View PDF file) a message box pop up with the message: Error while launching "gsview32.exe" with Params: "readme.pdf" The specified file was not found.
hm, will check I also found some ways around the tmp path problem (spaces in names of paths and so) Hans
