Hi all, Trying to use mpost with (today's) minimals, I get this answer: ................................... 16:55 jean@boldair /home/jean/graph % mpost ecindf

Do I have to make formats or something for mpost to work?

texexec --make metafun

But I should probably check what goes wrong as this format should have been generated automatically.

Hans, in the source code there is states.set("formats.cont-en", true) states.set("formats.cont-nl", true) states.set("formats.metafun", true) Maybe mpost should be added there as well (though I didn't test yet if that indeed helps).

maybe ... if someone is using mp directly in context -) in luatex/mkiv formats are generated on the fly ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
