Hi, yesterday I posted my problems configuring SciTE under Linux. Thanks to the tip of Hraban I came to the following solution: In the SciTEUser.porperties file setup the paths to the perl and ruby scripts. Do not forget the slash at the end of the line. path.context.rubyscripts=/usr/local/tex/texmf-local/scripts/context/ruby/ path.context.perlscripts=/usr/local/tex/texmf-local/scripts/context/perl/ In the context.properties file change the menu issues as follows: name.context.concheck=ruby $(path.context.rubyscripts)concheck.rb name.context.texexec=perl $(path.context.perlscripts)texexec.pl --autopdf name.context.texshow=perl $(path.context.perlscripts)texshow.pl name.context.texutil=perl $(path.context.perlscripts)texutil.pl name.context.examplap=ruby $(path.context.rubyscripts)texmfstart.rb --file=examplap.pdf --program=context --browser name.context.showcase=ruby $(path.context.rubyscripts)texmfstart.rb --file=showcase.pdf --program=contextname.context.concheck=ruby $(path.context.rubyscripts)concheck.rb So may be that there is still a better solution to this. Any comment is welcome. Kind regards Willi
