Dear Wolfgang and others,

I'll continue this here as the original thread is growing rather large.)

It finally took me longer as I decided to become a bit familiar with
XML and read through Eric Ray’s “Learning XML” first.

So now I went on to try the examples from said xml-mkiv.pdf and they
don’t seem to work.  Running context on them as they are will stop at
a TeX-prompt, typing \end into it will finish the run but no pdf is
produced.  The log file is quiet as usual.

However, naively adding

\starttext
TEST                                                                                                                       
\stoptext

to the document will result in a pdf that looks as if the XML part was
ignored.

Are those examples supposed to work as they are given in xml-mkiv or is
there some switch to get them working?

Thanks in advance,


Philipp


Btw there’s a typo in section 1.1: the xml declaration should read
<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>
                                   ^
