Willi Egger helped me get a minimal install working on my mac and I'm
working on a collection of columns illustrated with pictures. It's
been a while since I used Context so I want to download some basic
manuals to refresh my memory and learn new things.
On my Windows machine I can view/navigate and download manuals from the
http://www.pragma-ade.nl/showcase.pdf
page, but on my mac this doesn't work. In the Safari browser, nothing
happens if I click on the "manuals" link. In Firefox, the showcase PDF
is downloaded and I can open it. After allowing the file to go full
screen, I get error messages for the links "there was an error opening
this document/ the file cannot be found', execpt on the "quit" link ;-)
Is there a simple thing I should change to make it work on the mac as
well?
Groet,
Frans Goddijn

I use also the 8.1.2 version of Acrobat Reader on a MAC with OS 10.4. I have precisely the same problems als Frans mentioned. - I now realize that I encountered this already a longer time ago, but due to the fact that I download manuals directly from the tree, I forgot this.

The main page comes up but when I click on e.g., Manuals or Examples I get a File Not Found error. I experimented with Konqueror and Kpdf as the viewer. That seems to work, but slowly because of the download time.

Schaum @ 2008-10-07 16:22 UTC (permalink / raw) To: mailing list for ConTeXt users On my Mac I use the PDF Browser Plugin by Manfred Schubert www.schubert-it.com That makes everything work right on the web for Mac. And the browser has personal as well as commercial licenses. On Ubuntu Linux things work fine on the web. I still run (and shall continue to run) Windows 98 for me and Windows XP for the "family" computer. Thus, I don't do much TeXing on Windows. OTOH, the Debian-ish nature of Ubuntu allows one to DL the contect-nonfree pkg, but everything is gzipped. So either use evince or gunzip everything. Evince doesn't allow links at all, giving an "unknown mime type." If you gunzip and use Adobe Reader, some links create "file not found" errors but there is slightly more functionality. I always thought it was a file hierarchy thing. BTW, Free/PC-BSD is an environment where you can easily patch ports to let you install kile and the like without depending directly on a packaged TeX distro, allowing easy use of the tl-installer and the minimals as well. If KDE 4 is more stable in the next release cycle or if I remain a glutton for Gnome punishment, I may go that direction again, lack of Flash (except under Wine) or not.
