Hi Taco,
I was just re-reding your release notes 2007.04.17. What do you mean by "... texexec (once again) support the handling of LaTeX files" ?
Does it mean I can "envelope" latex files/snippets in regular context files and then process?
Checking this, it didn't work, So I googled and found:
Context 2005.07.27: map \end to \finalend (for t-latex module)
But (at least in the latest cont-tmf.zip) I could find a t-latex module...
What does this all mean?
Cheers,
Steffen

It means you can
texexec mylatexfile
instead of
latex mylatexfile
as this is sometimes needed for metapost labels.
The t-latex module is something completely different. Quite a while back, Brooks Moses started work on a module to run latex files on top of context, but that is not related to this texexec feature at all.
I've used that module for a book I typeset that came as latex source with >200 tabular tables that I did not want to convert.
Best wishes, Taco
