I can't find file `metafun'. <*> metafun Please type another input file name: ! I can't find file `'. <*> metafun ---------------------------------------------------------------------- i'm trying to install the latest beta version of context (well, a version from a couple weeks ago) on top of TeTeX. i followed the context installation manual to the letter up to the command to make the metafun format. instead of doing what the manual says, i tried what hans suggested. (both ways fail the same way.) this is the only file that looks like metafun that i have: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- bwv988 0/24 /usr/share/texmf# find . -name '*metafun*' ./metapost/context/metafun.mp ---------------------------------------------------------------------- is this the file that the previous command should process? any idea why it's not being found? yes, i ran mktexlsr. there are some more details on what i've done in previous posts i made to this list, but i don't think the details are relevant. i can dig them up though, if the solution to my problem isn't apparent. > Hans thanks, david
