Try
  kpsewhich -progname=context -format='other text files' texexec.pl
there is this PERL file.

(Besides: If you have a newer teTeX you should already have a
/usr/bin/texexec (which is a shell script that basically calls
  perl `kpsewhich -progname=context -format='other text files' texexec.pl` \
       ${1+"$@"}
)

You should alway start with a simple document and then extend it.

Which document are you talking about. Can you give the filename or
the full title?

If this is a specialized document: You should do some steps with pure
ConTeXt first.

Hi Walter

did you issue the following command at the beginning of the file:

\usemodule[chart]

to typeset the chart you have to issue the following command

\setupoutput[pdftex]
\usemodule[chart]

\setupFLOWcharts
     [option=test,
     nx=3,
     ny=3]

\startFLOWchart[grid]
\stopFLOWchart

\starttext
     \FLOWchart[grid]
\stoptext

When the option=test is set, the grid of the chart is drawn.

No not that I know

Other example:

\setupFLOWcharts
         [option=,
         nx=1,
         ny=2]

\startFLOWchart[Walter]
     \startFLOWcell
         \name {first}
         \location {1,1}
         \shape {singledocument}
         \text {Name: Walter}
     \stopFLOWcell
\stopFLOWchart

\starttext
         \FLOWchart[Walter]
\stoptext

This code works here....

Success Willi

hi list,
thanks for the hint with te_cont i was looking for *tex* so i never found anything.

So, i have installed all missing packets and the sample works fine.

Then i tried the first example from "typsetting flow charts".

\setupFLOWcharts[...]
\startFLOWchart[grid]
\stopFLOWchart

What is the mentioned "testmode" ? where i can see grid ?

the second example is the definition of a cell but i am unable to create any output because:
no legal \end found
but where ? the examples contain no end (in the sense
\begin{} \end{} )

Can i download the examples somewhere ?

walter
