Re: context w/ fptex?

[Thomas Porter <txporter@mindspring.com>]

Hans,

Thanks for the reply.  I did have a texexec.ini in the proper location. 

A little more research on my part found the trouble:  If I was in the home
directory for texexec.pl when I tried to build a format, I had no need to use a
FQPN for texexec.  This means that there were no '/' or '\' characters in the
program name perl was looking at in order to set the $pathslash variable, so it
defaulted to the UNIX style $pathslash '/' and the $IniPath = `$kpsewhich ....`
line failed since $kpsewhich contained 'C:/TEX/BIN/WIN32/kpsewhich' as opposed
to 'C:\TEX\BIN\WIN32\kpsewhich'

I also fixed the momory pool size problem, so now I am context'ing away under WIN98.

Thanks for the help and patience.
