Dear all, I have a working version of context mash-laptop:~$ context --version mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 0.60 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2013.11.07 15:28 However, I edit files in emacs/AUCTeX and the compile command "C-c C-c" calls "texexec" instead of "context" and so can't compile in emacs. Does anyone know how to change the command from "texexec" to "context" in emacs/AUCTeX? Thanks.

I have that in my preference.el (I use aquamacs) : --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (defun rol-context () (interactive) (save-current-buffer (save-buffer) (TeX-save-document "") (setq TeX-PDF-mode nil) (let ((nomdufichiersansextension (file-name-sans-extension (buffer-file-name)))) (shell-command (format "context --autopdf %s.tex" nomdufichiersansextension)) (TeX-view)))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I have bound this function rol-context to the key "F7", it works fine but it's definitely non optimal ! Regards, Roland (math teacher in a high school)
Thank you very much for the advice on configuring AUCTeX to compile context
files.
Inserting the following snippet in my .emacs (emacs configuration) file
worked.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(eval-after-load 'tex
'(add-to-list
'TeX-command-list
'("ConTeXt" "context --nonstopmode %t"
TeX-run-TeX nil (context-mode) :help "Run ConTeXt")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This fix is imperfect because even though context runs properly, AUCTeX
reports "ConTeXt: problems after [0] pages"
AUCTeX doesn't believe that the file has been compiled and C-c C-c offers
to run context again. It is necessary to select "View"
Some googling suggests that the return codes from context are not properly
interpreted by AUCTeX. I'm not sure if this is a context
non-standardization or an AUCTeX problem. thoughts?
Best,
Michael

Dear all,
I have a working version of context
mash-laptop:~$ context --version
mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 0.60 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2013.11.07 15:28
However, I edit files in emacs/AUCTeX and the compile command "C-c C-c" calls "texexec" instead of "context" and so can't compile in emacs. Does anyone know how to change the command from "texexec" to "context" in emacs/AUCTeX?
Thanks.
Best, Michael

It's on my todo-list to fix it, but at very low priority. In this case "problems after [0] pages" just means "success", so it's only a cosmetic issue.
AUCTeX doesn't believe that the file has been compiled and C-c C-c offers to run context again. It is necessary to select "View"
Also on my todo-list, but again at low priority: "View" is in my history, so just pressing "up" does it. And once the viewer (evince in my case) is launched, there is no further need for "View".
Some googling suggests that the return codes from context are not properly interpreted by AUCTeX.
I don't think so, the return code is 0 (success). It's probably more a matter of parsing the last lines of the terminal output.
I'm not sure if this is a context non-standardization or an AUCTeX problem. thoughts?
An AUCTeX problem. If you have some time (I don't) and you like to program with Emacs Lisp, then you could solve it. -- Peter

What is the recommnded way to configure one's preferred viewer in AUCTeX to by used when processing ConTeXt files? Sincerely, Gour -- As the ignorant perform their duties with attachment to results, the learned may similarly act, but without attachment, for the sake of leading people on the right path.

I don't know what is recommended, but this works for me: (setq-default TeX-PDF-mode t TeX-default-mode 'context-mode TeX-view-program-list '(("Okular" ("okular %(oo)" (mode-io-correlate "#src:%n%a")))) TeX-view-program-selection '(((output-dvi style-pstricks) "dvips and gv") (output-dvi "xdvi") (output-pdf "Okular") (output-html "xdg-open"))) -- Peter

You use "TeX-run-command" instead of "TeX-run-TeX". Thus you're not able to handle errors the usual way. -- Peter
