Architecture Sketch

Architecture Sketch

[Suno Ano]

hi folks,
I am new to ConTeXt. I had been a TeXinfo, Muse and LaTeX boy so far.
Now that I am into ConTeXt for the 2nd day it came to my attention that
there is for eample MkIV, luatex etc.

How do they fit together? Is there some sort of architecure chart
somewhere so newbies can get a hold within a few seconds?

Secondly, now that it seems MkIV is the new star will all my ConTeXt
knowledge be obsolete once luatex is going to be used? (Maybe I am just
making a fool out of myself even asking this but then I am totally new
to this whole subject so ...)

What I want is to write documents (papers, manual, theses, etc.) with
ConTeXt. So, is the time I am going to invest into learning and toying
around with ConTeXt a secure investment of my time or not i.e. ConTeXt
will be phased out or something (again, asking this might actually make
me look goofy :-)

tia for enlightening me!

Always make short examples of your problem .
And use linux.

Well Hans, the lead developer uses windows ;-) and from the messages I see

And I suspect these two facts are related.. :)

Nevertheless, I have used both and find the linux environment better
in general. Everything is "there" and my distribution (debian) takes
care of things. Sometimes I am impatient and want to "experiment" with
the latest and greatest, bypassing the distributions packaging
system. Then I get into trouble.

well, luatex/mkiv runs happily on our linux servers; my development 
machine runs vista, and taco's runs linux and we happily generatet 
multiple new formats per day ... the main ingredients for a working set 
up are: TEXMF, TEXMFCNF and sometimes TEXMFCACHE (keep in mind that 
traditional tex distribiutions can have hard coded paths and assumptions)

I am only teasing.

I love context, and have been using it for years now on linux. But I
only get to use it intermittently, and only rarely get involved with
the installation itself...

...so I forget the mechanics of how tex is configured and how it finds
everything.

Thanks,

nope, I do not get it especially for the latex part. What about this:


	      +--------------------------+
	      | ConTeXt, used for        |
	      | creating the source      |
	      | files to luatex          |
	      +--------------------------+
			   ^
			   |
			   |
		       	   |
			   |
			   |
	      +--------------------------+
	      | luatex, a bunch of       |
	      |	libraries and whatnot    |
	      |	which is going to replace|
	      | pdfTeX       	         |
	      |               	         |
	      +--------------------------+

So where do LaTeX and MkIV fit into this?

Which tells me exactly nothing :-) Actually to rephrase what I meant and
to what it boils down:

,----[ Question ]
| What will happen to folks like me who just need/want to write great
| documents using ConTeXt?
`----

If someone could shed some light onto this, I would be very thankful ...

For the rest
 - I took a look at the wiki, ml etc. but those could not answer my
   question -- usually I try another approach after 2 hours searching
   around 
 - yes, I am with Linux (DebianGNU/Linux)
 - GNU Emacs
 - my adorable cat :-)
 - a whole pile of ConTeXt manuals to read

pdftex, xetex, luatex: engines

context mkii: pdftex/xetex
context mkiv: luatex

no need to discard old knowledge ... there will be new mkiv-only

just see mkiv as a next version; the reason for calling it mkiv is that 
context never had fundamental versions, like latex (original, 2e, 3)

in order to prevent users asking "hey, there will be latex 3, when will 
there be acontext 3" i skipped the 3 and went for the 4 ...

... the mark part was inspired by deep purple using mk as tag for each 
new combination (which got my attention when i found out that steve 
morse was part of mk7 onwards, and the first code i wrote was with steve 
morse cd's in loop mode ...

... so now everyone knows why context mkiv is called mkiv; and yes, i 
only have DP mkvii/mkviii cd's/dvd's; and i'm not that no sure if there 
will be a context mkvii -)

I thought that while writing ConTeXt you (the Speed King of TeX,

well, often when writing tex code i feel more Like a Blind Man -)

anyhow, at some point i did realize that mkiv would have some Major 
Impact - two nice cd's -

(i wonder if users can deduce from the code what i was listening too, 
which is quite a broad spectrum ... for instance Canto Ostinato may lead 
to nice metapost graphics and i'm sure that my best code boils up while 
listening to Laughing Stock)
