Hi, I'm uploading an update. This fixes the missing texmfstart in the windows related zips. I also added format generation entries in the toolsmenu of scite. Because luatex runs from temp paths, you need to regenerate a format after updating. I also extended ctxtools --update (not tested). luatools and mtxrun now accept a --selfupdate flag that will replace the existing one in the bin path by the one in the script path 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Hans,
Thanks for the update. But the newer version of setuptex just does not
work for me. Commenting out all the "unset" sentences and it is fine
for me.

Hi,
I'm uploading an update.
Thank for MKIV. It looks pretty good. I am assuming that the speed issues will be sorted out by the time of the final release.

Something is broken at the garden. It says luatools not found. Luatex was working yesterday on the garden.
I also extended ctxtools --update (not tested).
Some initial remarks. * A newline is missing somewhere in luatools. I get LuaTools | running command: luatex --fmt="D:/Profiles/fkb384/LOCALS~1/Temp/luate x-cache/context/30023ed61c3aac84b97b84c266f644dc/formats/cont-en" --lua="D:/Prof iles/fkb384/LOCALS~1/Temp/luatex-cache/context/30023ed61c3aac84b97b84c266f644dc/ formats/cont-en.lua" "test.tex"This is luaTeX, Version 3.141592-beta-0.10.1-2007 080317 (Web2C 7.5.6) There should be a \n after "test.tex" Also LuaTools | runtime: 54.791 secondsTeXUtil | parsing file test.tui there should be a \n after seconds. * There is something wrong with typescripts. \definetypeface[mainface][rm][serif][charter][default][encoding=texnansi] \setupbodyfont[mainface,11pt] \starttext \input tufte \stoptext gives me <to be read again> \relax \xxdododefinefont ...tspec {#4}\newfontidentifier \let \localrelativefontsiz... \fontstrategy ...me \fontclass #2#3#4#5\endcsname \tryingfontfalse \fi <inserted text> ...yle \fontalternative \fontsize \fi \iftryingfont \fontstr... \synchronizefont ...strategy \the \fontstrategies \relax \fi \iftryingfont \... <argument> \getvalue {\@style@ \fontstyle } \edef \fontstyle {\fontstyle }\if... ... l.2 \setupbodyfont[mainface,11pt] The above code works fine with pdftex. * I really like the new pretty printing module. The single quote correct displays correctly. And the state machine for pretty printing is much easier to understand in lua than it was in tex. Aditya

party, but keep in mind that control has its price (esp with regards to fonts) but we can gain some speed when traditional code is swapped by lua based code

There should be a \n after "test.tex"
some tricky interference between tex and lua (buffering) since the newline is there
* There is something wrong with typescripts.
\definetypeface[mainface][rm][serif][charter][default][encoding=texnansi] \setupbodyfont[mainface,11pt]
\starttext \input tufte \stoptext
hm, maybe a missing font ... we're open type gyre now

I am confused. I do not have open type version of charter. I thought that it was still possible to use traditional type 1 fonts with mkiv. The above code also fails on the garden, which means that it will fail on traditional installations. So, how do I use the free bitstream charter that ships with tex distributions? I am using the context standalone distribution and have afm version of charter (bchb8a.afm, bchbi8a.afm, bchr8a.afm, bhcri8a.afm) and the pfb versions of the same fonts. I do not have otf version of charter. Aditya

should work, but for the moment wait till luatex is fixed for indexing such fonts btw, mkiv will not use the tfm files but the afm files

well, in principle we no longer have font encodings, when the afm file is found, it will be used and > 256 chars are possible then ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
