I'm sorry to trouble you but...

I applied the patch. When I try to compile my file it fails like this:

! Undefined control sequence. \presetfloatvariables ...atmethod \floatparameter

is it not possible to update to the current context? I'm running 3.0_p1 (on a Gentoo linux box so I'm acustomed to compiling from source).

Hello Jean & Peter, Jean Magnan de Bornier writes:

I did it like that because I have (setq-default TeX-master nil) in my .emacs so it asks then inserts the local variables that Peter mentioned. Having emacs recognise a context file by \starttext is fine except when you open a new file. This is drifting off topic but, if you have any tweaks to make AUCTeX work better with context than it does out of the box then I'd be glad to hear about them. Roger

I'm using the dual extension .ctx.tex as a way of telling my editor (emacs) to invoke the context mode of AUCTeX when I load a file with that extension.

Auctex automatically recognizes plain tex vs latex vs context files by the first few lines in the file. The main time when that method does not work is when starting a new file. Since almost every tex file I make these days is a ConTeXt file, I set the default for that case by using this .emacs line: (setq TeX-default-mode 'context-mode) -Sanjoy `Not all who wander are lost' (J.R.R. Tolkien)

Hi Thomas, "Thomas A. Schmitz" writes:

Gentoo version numbers are not something that many people around here will know. I assume that 3.0_p1 refers to gentoo's tetex ebuild. This is ancient, tetex has been unmaintained for almost two years (and gentoo should be ashamed that they still haven't gotten around to making texlive the default). Of course it's possible to upgrade, but you will run into trouble: you'll need to compile a newer version of pdftex and install that. The gentoo tex setup is quite complex, and finding out why it is still using some old config file etc. is a royal pain. I tried it for a while and in the end got fed up with it and installed texlive from the iso image (see http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TeX-live) . But if you want to give it a shot, there's a wiki page about it; some info may be slightly updated, but most of it should work as described: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Linux_Installation#Updating_Gentoo_Linux

This is what I have: TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texexec : TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.30.5-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5) context : ver: 2005.01.31 cont-en : ver: 2005.01.31 fmt: 2007.11.29 mes: english I think there is now a texlive ebuild that is marked "testing". Maybe I should try that first. I have a package built for teTeX so i can revert if disaster strikes. Cheers, Roger

Must update, I'd start with a fresh, clean TeX if I were you. It depends. Actually this configuration can produce a good pdf, in the sense that can be read by Adobe Reader 5.0 and following . Maybe a complety separete tree (pdftex1.4+ConTeXt) can be a solution.
