Hi,
at the context meeting it was concluded that there is no reason for mkiv
to be fully downward compatible.
one thing that i consider removing is the 'background=screen' option
from \framed. After all, screens internally already are just grayscales
and the old 'method' mechanism is no longer valid given postscript and
pdf technologies
in practice it means that those who use it (in mkiv) will have to use
colors (grayscales) instead (the last time that i used screens myself is
sometime last century)
Hans

I read on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mark_IV
Troubleshooting
The environment variable TEXINPUTS has to be empty or unset. If not, you can
get errors about "file.tex not found".
Indeed, I wrote under "mtxrun TEXINPUTS bug"
that setting TEXINPUTS also causes mtxrun to fail.
What is the proper technique to find (custom) file input under Mark_IV?
Thank you.

Great!
Could you then also repair the "align=left|right" issue?
Thanks, Peter

no, because that would affect too many existing things
also, you can use
flushleft
flushright
center
which more reflect the result

Can you now add left|right|top|bottomoffset to \framed.

maybe when core-rul gets two versions, mkii and mkiv (and even then i
need to check for interferences); the whole structure system comes first
(sectioning, lists, references, numbering, blocks etc)

I apologize in advance for my trivial questions, but... there is a
command/way to set the PATHS where ConTeXt can search for \input
files?
