RE: [NTG-context] bug in latest ConTeXt (confirmed)
===== Original Message From Hans Hagen
===== Sounds like supp-dir needs a no-Omega check, as well. Hans?
attached for testing, i dunny what the pardir equivalents are for \beginL and \beginR -)
Not to belabor this, but I'm getting ### simple group (level 1) entered at line lines all over the place in my work that compiled fine with the old ConTeX, and I suspect that XeTeX may be responsible. Is there a way to completely isolate the new stuff because I'm going to lose a lot of time trying to track down every situation where my previously well-behaved stuff now gives errors because of this. This has been a really frustrating week... Idris ============================ Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

just put \endinput atthe topmost lin eof supp-dir.tex and remake the format 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------

sorry for that i played a it with the $engine stuff in web2c and (as adam already found out for xetex) somehow that mechanism does not work well [one can set en engine in texmf.cnf, like TEXFORMATS = .;$TEXMF/web2c/{$engine,} MFBASES = .;$TEXFORMATS MPMEMS = .;$TEXFORMATS TEXPOOL = .;$TEXFORMATS MFPOOL = .;$TEXFORMATS MPPOOL = .;$TEXFORMATS but when generating format files that way, pool files are not found and such. at the moment the best way of dealing with is is to use texexec's engine handler; locate texexec.ini (or rme) and set set UseEnginePath to true after that pdfetex, aleph, xetex, mpost etc will end up on their own path. (in case of the minimal distribution, TEXFORMATS are set to an os specific texmf tree, say texmf-linux/web2c or texmf-mswin/web2c, so don't worry about the cnf file; currently texexec prepends the engine subpath so it should work this way but it's kind of a hack because in the future i'd like kpse to handle it - also, problems will be less when pool files move into the binary - there have been some discussions about that recently) 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
