Lua script not registered

Lua script not registered

Replying to the list in this manner--having to retype the subject--is
unusual to me, and I hope it does not create problems for the list. Please
help me on how to reply within the mail archive to make more efficient.
Many thanks to those who have replied on the topic!

Thank you, Aditya--

I had run C:\context\tex\setuptex.bat and then tried

C:\context>context firstfile.tex

which worked (now down to 3+ secs from 11+ at first run--file = \starttext
Hello World \stoptext)

I think I can get this setuptex.bat automated for random context runs but,

for some reason(s) C:>context somefile.tex will not work globally on my
personal computer (Lenovo x100e) over which I have admin control (maybe I
am not a good admin?) and I have added C:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin to my
PATH

I still get "Lua script not registered" complaint when I try to compile
outside of C:\context directory

I suppose I could live with keeping all binaries and docs in C:\context,
but that is not so inviting compared to being able to pdfLaTeX a doc over
Dropbox via MikTeX for example.

You need to have C:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin in front of MikTeX's
bin, else the command "context" will use LuaTeX from MikTeX and that
one won't find ConTeXt scripts.

However, you might stumble into some problems with LaTeX then, but it
might be possible to remove pdfTeX (during installation of ConTeXt you
can say --engines=luatex) and then it will be unlikely that you will
want to use the same binary with ConTeXt and LaTeX (I have no idea how
kpathsea would work in such a scenario).

are you subscribed to the list? If yes, have you set up to get the
digest mode?

In either way, when participating in a discussion it is a good thing to
subscribe [1] and then configure the list to send you all messages. Then
you can reply to the list like you are used to and the threading is
kept.

To get the reference you can also download the archive as a mbox file
[3] and get the reference there or configure the correct message headers
(In-Reply-To, References).


Thanks,

Paul

I use windows here and it works ok, so it should be possible to get it 
working. In principle the only thing needed is to add the tex bin path 
to the environment variable PATH (beware there are two of them). From an 
editor, you can best run 'mtxrun --script context ...'.

Is the cache generated? Has there been an initial 'mtxrun --generate'?
