[NTG-context] Can I use mkii and mkiv side by side?

[Gerben Wierda]

I don’t use TeXShop for these projects. I use a separate editor in a shell and a Makefile (very old-fashioned). The Makefile contains stuff like:

OPEN=echo
MODE=--mode=standalone
ONCE=

.SUFFIXES: .pdf .tex .open

.pdf.open:
        open $<

.tex.pdf:
        texexec --pdf ${MODE} ${ONCE} $<

once:
        make ONCE="--once" book-open

full:
        make ONCE="" book-open

prd_book.pdf: ${PRODUCTSDIR}/prd_book.tex ${ENVDIR}/env_cataoia.tex \
        $(TEXS) $(BOOKIMAGES) /Users/gerben/Library/texmf/bibtex/bib/gwierda.bib
        make MODE="--mode=editor" ONCE="${ONCE}" ${PRODUCTSDIR}/prd_book.pdf

I can do a quick compile with 'make once' and a full compile with 'make full’. And if I compile a separate chapter file it ends up being compiled differently from compiling a full book (e.g. the endnotes and bibliography end up at the end of the chapter) so I can work on separate chapters.

luna:chapters gerben$ make -n c_loosely.pdf
texexec --pdf --mode=standalone  c_loosely.tex
luna:chapters gerben$ make -n prd_book.pdf
make MODE="--mode=editor" ONCE="" ../products/prd_book.pdf

The latter turns into

texexec --pdf --mode=editor  ../products/prd_book.tex

And the environment file has:

\startmode[standalone]
  \setupfootertexts[pagenumber][{\jobname->\filename{\currentcomponent}}]
  \def\maybeendnotes
     {\subsubject{Notes} \placenotes[endnote] \subsubject{Bibliography}
        \switchtobodyfont[9pt]
        \placepublications[criterium=all]}
  \appendtoks \maybeendnotes \to \everystoptext
\stopmode

So, what would be easiest for me if I know what commend to use instead of the texexec command.
