Hi, I uploaded new bzips, these are my minimal context trees: http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/linuxtex.zip.bz2 http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/macosxtex.zip.bz2 http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/mswintex.zip.bz2 and this is for windows users, i.e. a subset of fptex: http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/tex.iso.bz2 http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/tex.tar.bz2 These two are some 144 Meg. There is also the texsyncable tree. A few remarks: (1) the cd has an autorun file (2) and also start.bat and demo.bat files (3) whatever you choose, it will also start the example framework (4) which means that you have some goodies (recently added: font tester; interface is accessible from tools menu) (5) the demo files at least can prove that tex/metapost/xml work (6) afaik it works all right on spacy install paths (7) as well as (when running from cdrom) on the local (often spacy) user temp path (8) more example interfaced stuff will follow and the interface macros itself will be documented later i'll try to get this working for linux as well (alas, ruby is not yet standard on unix and i need to get rid of hard coded scite paths) as well as macosx (dunno how to make a texshop-using-small-context-tree-run-from-cd version yet; no scite on mac yet) I can add support for more editors later; the idea is that this provides a kind of standard. The example framework is now multi-threaded. The more extended client-server alternative will follow later.

no scite on mac yet
http://homepage.mac.com/atl/tex/#other I spent yesterday doing a "quick" port of SciTE for Mac OS X (XWindow system only!), and bundled up the libraries (and ConTeXt config files, with a couple mac-friendly mods) at the above URL. I mostly did it out of interest and to see what it was like. If other Mac users are curious, take a look (but don't expect any help ;p ).

great! i'll see if i can hook in my menus and thingies (i'll come back to this asap, tomorrow is the dutch user group day, so there is some delay) Hans

Your menus and thingies in (public) ConTeXt are already there. I actually stuck them in the scite/*.properties directory so that it opens up ready to go, ConTeXt-wise. Was that what you meant?

indeed, but now i have them 3 times in the prop edit menu, so maybe there are dups now; what we also need is a variant of --autopdf, i.e, is there a one-liner like: kill "the pid that has arobat open" i can now add mscite to the cdrom-image: #!/bin/sh . /usr/local/context/tex/setuptex /usr/local/context/tex # we need to extent the path for ruby and scite PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin export PATH SciTE & (how to auto start X) next week i'll start playing a bit with xetex and those unicode fonts (we need to move that code into pdftex -); i can work much faster with a scite like editor and this way i can use windows and mac along side Hans

oops. probably because they were already present and/or some of your local command-names/numbers have changed?
what we also need is a variant of --autopdf, i.e, is there a one-liner like:
kill "the pid that has arobat open"
% killall Acrobat (Although the free version is "Adobe Reader 6.0" now...)
SciTE &
(how to auto start X)
% open-x11 SciTE (no ampersand needed, and it seems to be nice: launches X11 if needed, brings the window forward if already launched...)
next week i'll start playing a bit with xetex and those unicode fonts (we need to move that code into pdftex -);
I'm blown away by XeTeX, but it has only given me a bus error since I had it going in its version 0.3. My tex trees need a clean...

Nice. It has a way to go before it replaces iTeXMac (or emacs!) for me. Perhaps if there was nice folding, SciTE would be more tempting. But I see the value in a uniform editor across platforms. adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Thank you for your work - but it doesn't run on Jaguar (my Panther isn't here yet). Could you distribute the sources, too? Grüßlis vom Hraban! -- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/

The sources are absolutely unchanged from the Scintilla & GTK+2.0 sources. I just traced through the dependencies that weren't already present on a Panther system. That's what took all day. Darwin Ports would probably get you GTK a lot quicker. You probably could build SciTE on top of that. If you're really interested, I made a little diagram of the missing libs I found. I could annotate that with what I can remember of the build tricks I needed. Nothing fancy, just drudge work. adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

I'd be glad if you could write together these tricks. But my installation is so messy (Fink stuff, a lot of self-compiled stuff and several different ports stuff...) that I probably should wait until I set up a clean Panther system. Grüßlis vom Hraban! -- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/

Thank you - I thought one must fix SciTE, not GTK. Did you try SciTE installation via Fink (unstable tree)? Works perfectly! (But needed a whole night to compile everything...) Grüßlis vom Hraban! -- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/

SciTE is pretty straightforward, once you have everything else in place. I did have to explicitly 'make GTK2=true' though.

Does it? I've always been a bit dubious about Fink (I've used it in 10.0 and 10.1), and I think it's less and less necessary nowadays. I particularly dislike the way it encourages full buy-in but doesn't play well with other, non-fink ports. cheers, adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

That's true - I sticked a while, for the basic libxml2 didn't compile - until I recognized that it stumbles over files from libxml.framework; moved the framework away - et voilá! (I don't understand C, so I don't always understand the messages why some tarball won't compile.) Oh, I wondered why there's no ConTeXt in SciTE - Fink has only version 1.5.1 instead 1.6.1...
