Re: [NTG-context] ntg-context Digest, Vol 22, Issue 1
ok! I have modified the batch-files.
Next Problems:
texexec.ini is not found in 'context\config' I copyed it in 'scripts\context\perl' now it is found.
Is this normal? Or is this a symptome of the problem I am looking for?
'texexec --verbose' tries to compile all the files in the aktuel path.
but
'texmfstart texexec.pl --verbose' works ok.
same with
'texexec --make --all' doesn't work
but
'texmfstart texexec.pl --make --all' works!
formatfiles will generatet under '.\pdfetex' relativ to the aktual path.
I have found TWO different files 'texmf.cnf'. One in 'tex\texmf\web2c' the other in 'tex\texmf-local\web2c'. Meight this be an Problem? Which of them is the right one? I have NOT found any file 'pdftex.cfg'. Ist this normal? In 'texmf.cnf' are some pathes written with '/' and '\' mixed. Should this be korrekted. Wolfgang

it depends on what system you use; the settinsg default to tetex/fptex/gwtex so in that case no ini is needed newtexexec.rb (which will replace texexec.pl) has no ini file but uses some heuristics to determine what environment it runs in

good on windows: you need to associate the pl suffix to perl on linux you need to make texexec into a script (suffixless) on both you can best use texmfstart to launch the scripts since that's upward compatible (and in some respects this call is more clever); if needef you can create stubs with texmfstart (see manual)

normally the local one will be loaded first and variables set in the environment are ignored

yes, that file is gone in recent pdftex's (best not use an old pdfetex with a new tree

normally no problem since kpse normalizes paths Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
