In the installation manual (minstall.pdf) it is said that if I want to change the defaults, I have to edit the 'cont-sys.tex' file to, say, enable '\setupoutput[pdftex]' as default. However, I cannot find the file. I am using teTeX from Debian 3.0, and when I run 'locate cont-sys' (after a 'updatedb') I get emil:~# updatedb emil:~# locate cont-sys /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/cont-sys.ori /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme Is this a bug in the installation manual? Note that it make the changes suggested in minstall.pdf in the cont-sys.rme file; is this the correct thing to do? Regards, Emil -- Emil Hedevang Lohse http://home.imf.au.dk/emil/ Alle spørgsmål er lige dumme. Og spørgsmålet "Kan ænder flyve?" er ikke dumt.

Not exactly. ConTeXt reads cont-sys.tex, but doesn't include it, since otherwise your file might get overwritten every time you unzip cont-tmf.zip. Thus simply copy cont-sys.rme to cont-sys.tex and make the necessary changes. Tobias
