Hello, 1. is there the same in Context than the Latexian \begin{comment} ... \end{comment} --------------------------- 2. In the Minimal tree there are many .afm, .tfm and other font files. Is there a sort of font catalogue (visualization of the fonts) ? The source of such a catalogue would be a good example for beginners - like me. -- René Bastian www.pythoneon.org www.musiques-rb.org http://www.soundsurvey.org.uk/

There is a luatex-based web server that shows all the OpenType fonts, but I'm not sure how to call it and whether it still works. (There are many more fonts in the TeX Live tree or on CTAN.) Mojca

The server is started with mtxrun --script server --auto and serves http://localhost:31415/mtx-server-ctx-startup.lua however, the fonttest fails because I forgot to adapt the cache path to the new situation .. i'll upload a fix. The help systems seems to work.

Hello Hans. Ist the fix applied yet (beta from 04-Aug-2010 18:52)? For me it ends with: MTXrun | request from: 127.0.0.1 MTXrun | requested action: /mtx-server-ctx-fonttest.lua?selection=hoeflertextregular MTXrun | performing action: /mtx-server-ctx-fonttest.lua?selection=hoeflertextregular MTXrun | requested file '/mtx-server-ctx-fonttest.lua?selection=hoeflertextregular' MTXrun | handling error 404: Not Found Greeting Andreas
