Hello,

It's a repost, because version 2008.04.10 still fails:


What about the integration of this patch from Wolfgang Schuster into the
distribution:

This is tooo long.

\usemodule[chemic] is enough to produce the error with mkiv.

Replace the following lines in m-chemic

\ifx\beginpicture\undefined
  \let\normalgrid\grid
  \let\normalaxis\axis
  \input pictex.tex \relax
  \let\pictexgrid\grid
  \let\pictexaxis\axis
  \let\grid\normalgrid
  \let\axis\normalaxis
\fi

with

\ifx\beginpicture\undefined
  \let\beginpicture\relax
\fi

and the module works.

Wolfgang

i have fixed something (will be in next release) but not that way ... 
loading must permit pstricks usage as well

btw, does \usemodule[pictex,chemic] work?

loading pictex directly in mkiv will fail because it uses a different 
catcode management system; thrd-pic is a copy of pictex but contexified

Yes, this test file compiles well:

% engine=luatex
\usemodule[pictex,chemic]
\starttext
test
\stoptext

Cheers, Peter
