Something is wrong with the new beta. I downloaded the zip and regenerated the formats, but only metafun format is created. I am attaching the output of
texmfstart --verbose texexec --verbose --make --all actually, the problem is that the latest pdfetex is not called pdftex; can you remove all traces or pdftex[.exe] in your bin path and see what happens then?

No pdftex is in the path. I call context by using set PATH=E:\Ruby\bin call E:\isoimage\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat E:\isoimage\usr\local\context\tex so there should not be any mismatched executables. Aditya

Yes, this works. The formats are generated correctly. However, texmfstart texexec --mpgraphic file.mp does not give me a pdf file. I do understand why this is happening. I will dig into it a bit more and see what is going wrong. Aditya

In tex.rb def processmpgraphic ... if data =~ /output files written\:\s*(.*)$/mois then .... However, if the mp file contains only one figure, the output in the log is 1 output file written: figures-axis.1 Notice /file/ instead of /files/. So the regex should be changed according. Then everything works. Aditya

That does the trick. --mpgraphic is working correctly. However, there is no message on the console saying that a pdf file is created. Can you add report ("{#name}.#{number} converted to #{filename}.#{number}.pdf") and report ("#{name}.#{number} converted to #{filename}.pdf") after File.silentrename lines. Aditya

well, s* means zero or more s's so we also catch future typos in metapost, i.e. output filesssss -) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
