Hallo Hans,

In the newest metafun-s.pdf om page 231:

----------
\startMPcode
draw btex Meta is a female lion! etex
xysized (\the\textwidth,\the\textheight) ;
\stopbuffer
----------

I assume that should probably be \stopMPcode.

The following does work for me (with a few hurdles):

----------
% output=pdf
\starttext
\startMPenvironment[reset]
   \setupbodyfont[pos]
\stopMPenvironment
\startMPcode
   draw btex Meta is a female lion! etex 
                  xysized (\the\textwidth,\the\textheight) ;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
-----------

'texexec test1' complains:

Randomizer initialized to 949889678.
figures        : figure mpgraph can not be found
[1.1{/usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/pdftex.map}]
.........
Sorry, I can't find the mem file `metafun.mem'; will try `mpost.mem'.
(mpgraph.mp )
Transcript written on mpgraph.log.

mpgraph.log says:

This is MetaPost, Version 0.641 (Web2C 7.3.1) (mem=mpost 2000.4.26)  26 
APR 2000 18:56
**&metafun mpgraph
(mpgraph.mp )

'mpost mpgraph.mp' does generate mpgraph.1.
'gv mpgraph.1' shows the correct figure.
A second run 'texexec test1' now generates a complete PDF file.

Can you tell me why texexec cannot get this right in one run?

My system:
   Linux, tetex-1.0.7 with updated pdftex and context.
