Something broke with formula numbering, and it is due to the numbering changes. \preparethenumber is commented from core-sec.tex, dododoformulanumber in core-mat.tex still uses it. As a result even the simple \placeformula \startformula a = b \stopformula fails with ! Undefined control sequence. \dododoformulanumber ...@fmleft \preparethenumber \??fm \composedsectionnumb... <argument> \normalreqno {\doformulanumber [][][]{} } \secondoftwoarguments #1#2->#2 \dostopformula ->\doplaceformulanumber \getvalue {\e!stop \formulaparameter ... l.3 \placeformula \startformula a = b \stopformula Changing preparethenumber in dododoformula by preparefullnumber gets rid of the problem.

Same thing happens here... (Aditya was faster... ;) ) Renaud Aditya Mahajan a écrit :

I just tested Aditya's example \starttext \placeformula \startformula a = b \stopformula \stoptext and found that it worked fine (with 2006.08.08 21:51), so I guessed that some fast updating happened! I've added that example to the contexttest files as 'tex/context/base/core-mat.tex/test-005.tex'. I also included a test for \dontleavehmode mixing with \section headings (as core-sec.tex/test-001.tex). -Sanjoy `Never underestimate the evil of which men of power are capable.' --Bertrand Russell, _War Crimes in Vietnam_, chapter 1.
Hans, The latest ctxtools.rb has: def locatedlocaltree tree = `kpsewhich --expand-path $TEXMFLOCAL`.chomp rescue nil unless tree && FileTest.directory?(tree) then tree = `kpsewhich --expand-path $TEXMF`.chomp rescue nil end return tree end I know the Windows/Unix quoting isn't sorted out, but another problem is with --expand-path. If the kpsewhich --expand-path $TEXMF line would get run here (with '$TEXMF'), it would produce /home/sanjoy/.texmf-config:/home/sanjoy/.texmf-var:/home/sanjoy/texmf:/etc/texmf:/var/lib/texmf:/usr/local/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf:/usr/share/texmf-tetex which would eventually become the argument of an unhappy Dir.chdir(). Should localtedlocaltree() extract the first component before doing 'return tree'? -Sanjoy `Never underestimate the evil of which men of power are capable.' --Bertrand Russell, _War Crimes in Vietnam_, chapter 1.
What's the meaning of "automatically calls bibtex now". We don't have to call: texexec --once mydoc bibtex mydoc texexec mydoc anymore ? Renaud Taco Hoekwater a écrit :

This should work: \loadmapfile[koeieletters] \usetypescriptfile[type-cow] \usetypescript[cow][default] % only in 'default' encoding \definebodyfontenvironment[72pt] \setupbodyfont[cow,72pt] \starttext \rm Hello! % the typescript switches to sans by default \blank[big] $1 + 1 = 2$ \stoptext Cheers, Taco
Hi Taco, Thanks, this helps. Also \setupbodyfont[cow,rm,36pt] does the trick. Willi Taco Hoekwater wrote:

just load the symb-cow symbols (\usesymbols[cow]) as starting point (it defined fonts and such) there will be a manual Hans
Hi Hans, Thanks for the hint! Now I am able to display the symbolsets with \showsymbolset. However I can't get eg. \symbol[CowConTeXtComplete] I tried also the Marvosyms. I can display the a set e.g. \showsymbolset[atronomic], but can't get \symbol[astronomic:Mars] Is the \symbol command broken? Willi Hans Hagen wrote:

That reminded me that symb-cow.tex needs to be extended&changed a bit because the new release has 8 extra glyphs: \symbol[CowCowTeXtComplete] and all the 'Complete' logos are now also available without dots. New file attached. Cheers, Taco
Hi Mojca, thanks, that makes the difference! Willi Mojca Miklavec wrote:
