The output looked good. I am not going to approve the message for the list (not needed, and it is another 110Kb for people to d/l)
But when I try
texexec -pdf temp
I get:
TeXExec | processing document 'temp' TeXExec | no ctx file found TeXExec | nothing to process TeXExec | runtime: 0.001625
This means texexec cannot find "temp.tex". Cheers, taco

taco, I renamed my input file to temp.tex. Now I get: kpathsea: Running mktexfmt cont-en.fmt mktexfmt: No such file or directory I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt' The file cont-en.fmt is in texmf-linux/web2c/pdfetex I added the following line to texmf/context/config/texexec.ini TeXFormatPath texmf-linux/web2c/pdfetex fmt files That didn't help, so I copied texexec.ini to texmf-linux/bin but that didn't help either. Please let me know if you'd prefer I take this back on list (I will anyway if I miss you, I'm in California so it's morning here). Thanks, Neal

Now I get:
kpathsea: Running mktexfmt cont-en.fmt mktexfmt: No such file or directory I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'
The file cont-en.fmt is in
texmf-linux/web2c/pdfetex
I added the following line to texmf/context/config/texexec.ini
TeXFormatPath texmf-linux/web2c/pdfetex fmt files
When you run ". setuptex
That didn't help, so I copied texexec.ini to
texmf-linux/bin
but that didn't help either.
The kpsewhich utility is used to search the ls-R databases and can
also display the values of variables. Unfortunately, the documentation
is probably not in the minimal configuration you have. If you can
find another system with TeX, try "info kpsewhich".

The instructions I was reading ( http://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/manuals/minstall.pdf ) do not mention the restriction on file name extension Neal

The '-a' option shouldn't hurt. I don't see any files flagged as "text" in the archives. $ mv tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr.orig $ unzip -a linuxtex.zip tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr Archive: linuxtex.zip inflating: tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr [text] $ ls -l tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr.orig -rw-r--r-- 1 gwhite bod 5310 May 18 15:15 tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr -rwxr-xr-x 1 gwhite bod 5310 May 18 15:15 tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr.orig so, permissions are lost, but: $ diff tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr tex/texmf-linux/bin/mktexlsr.orig 115,118c115,116 < && test "x`sed '1s/ < $//;1q' \"$db_file\"`" != "x$ls_R_magic" \ < && test "x`sed '1s/ < $//;1q' \"$db_file\"`" != "x$old_ls_R_magic"; then --- $//;1q' \"$db_file\"`" != "x$ls_R_magic" \ $//;1q' \"$db_file\"`" != "x$old_ls_R_magic"; then an embedded ^M in a sed rule is being munged. This should be changed to use '\r' in place of '^M'.
texexec --make en de nl texexec --make metafun
Both seem to run fine (output attached in a separate post).
But when I try
texexec -pdf temp
I get:
TeXExec | processing document 'temp'
I see Taco has answered this.

Hmm. I expected a 't' in the 'unzip -l' or 'unzip -lv', but clearly
unzip -a thinks mktexlsr is a text file and (since it is run on linux)
is deleting the '^M' characters.
