Re: simpleslides with minimals

["Amaël Broustet" <context@amael.net>]

Thank you for the advice.
I followed it but still run in some problems :
I used

~/context$ sh ./first-setup.sh --extras="t-simpleslides"

then 

:~/context$ source ./tex/setuptex

Everythings look fine :

~/context$ luatools t-simpleslides.tex
/home/amael3/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/third/simple-slides/t-simpleslides.tex

~/context$ kpsewhich t-simpleslides.tex
/home/amael3/texmf/tex/context/third/simple-slides/t-simpleslides.tex

~/context$ type texexec
texexec est haché (/home/amael3/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/texexec)

~/context$ type luatools
luatools est haché (/home/amael3/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatools)

My essai.tex file is :

~/context$ cat essai.tex
\usemodule[simpleslides][style=BigNumber,font=Helvetica,size=24]

\setupTitle
[   title={Essai / Try SimpleSlides},
 author={Amaël Broustet},
    date={6 mai 2009},
]

\starttext
\placeTitle
\SlideTitle{Le premier slide}
Essai 
\stoptext

but when I run mark IV :

Do you have any suggestion ?


Sorry for the long logs inside the body of the email.

Best,
