I really like the support that AUCTeX gives for ConTeXt. Actually, in general it does well with any flavor. I'll have to RTFM to see what I can do to start a new file specifically in ConTeXt, plain, or whatever, not just LaTeX. The weird thing is that it reports unspecified "problems" at the end of running context but no such problems really exist. The trivial snippet: \starttext Hello, world! \stoptext yields the message buffer: Updating define menu... Updating setup menu... Updating other macro's menu... Updating project structure menu... Updating section block menu... Updating section menu... Updating...done Type `C-c C-l' to display results of compilation. ConTeXt: problems after {1} page. The pdf generated is, however, entirely satisfactory, as are all texted documents. My strategy is to ignore it. This appears specific to AUCTeX, in this case running on GTK Emacs 22 / Ubuntu 8.04. By contrast, I have minimal to no problems on my OS X installation. Charles

What are the exit codes for texexec? Perhaps these are different from what auctex is expecting. Jesse -- Jesse Alama (alama@stanford.edu)

I think this is a problem in context.el. David Kastrup helped me with this problem at last year's ConTeXt meeting. Open the file auctex/ context.el in your favorite text editor. Now search for this line: ((re-search-forward "^ TeX\\(Exec\\|Util\\)" nil t) ;; strange regexp --pg Insert a question mark right before TeX, so the line reads ((re-search-forward "^ ?TeX\\(Exec\\|Util\\)" nil t) ;; strange regexp --pg That should fix your problem. pg, a.k.a. Patrick Gundelach, are you reading this? :-) Thomas

Hi Thomas+Charles, As an auctex user, I have the same problem; but the question mark is already in the context.el file. So I imagine the root of the problem is somewhere else... :-( cheers, -- Jean
I did put the question mark where there was none, and I still got the behavior. Charles On Mon, 2008-06-30 at 08:10 +0200, Jean Magnan de Bornier wrote:

Hello Thomas,
That should fix your problem. pg, a.k.a. Patrick Gundelach, are you reading this? :-)
yes, I am reading this. But I hope that there is somebody else maintaining AUCTeX at the moment :-) Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net
