I defined some things I will use often. At the moment I do something like: \input /home/cecil/Documenten/context/include/standard-init.inc But I would prefer to do something like: \input standard-init.inc Is shorter and when the path changes there is nothing to update. How should I implement this? Also is it possible to \input a file relative to the current document? For example in my standard-init.inc I have: \ctxloadluafile{/home/cecil/Documenten/context/include/lua/getdate} but I would prefer something like: \ctxloadluafile{lua/getdate} -- Cecil Westerhof

Make a module out of the code and put it in texmf-local. Wolfgang

Or modify TEXINPUTS and LUAINPUTS variables. Aditya

Both where not defined in my environment. I now have defined: export TEXINPUTS=.:${TEXROOT}:${HOME}/ConTeXt-inc This takes care of my defined stuff. There is only one problem. I do: \usemodule[fancybreak] \definefancybreak[myblank][indentnext=no] This worked before, but now I get: resolvers > modules > not found: 'fancybreak' ! Undefined control sequence. system > tex > error on line 27 in file /home/cecil/ConTeXt-inc/layout-init.inc: Undefined control sequence ... 17 \setuphead[subsection][before={\myblank[big,small] \testpage[10]},style={\bf}] 18 19 \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] 20 21 \definelayout[pagenumbers][ 22 footer=10mm, 23 ] 24 25 \usemodule[fancybreak] 26 27 >> \definefancybreak[myblank][indentnext=no] What else do I have to do? -- Cecil Westerhof

I remember, that setting TEXINPUTS is not recommended. See also: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mark_IV#Troubleshooting Did that change? -- Peter

The mentioned problem is circumvented by using: export TEXINPUTS=.:${TEXROOT}:${HOME}/ConTeXt-inc The dot makes that first is looked in the current directory. But the module fancybreak is not found. So there is still a problem. -- Cecil Westerhof

For the moment I defined a shell variable. I just have to call context like this: context --path=${TEX_INC} ebookTimeManagement Does not work for lua files, but they will only be loaded from included files -I think-, so that is less of a problem. -- Cecil Westerhof
