Subject: metapost: unable to make mpx file error
Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2010 16:08:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201009281608.24932.alan.braslau@cea.fr> (raw)
\startOT
Wow! "experimental metapost version two"
(does this mean that we get to play with precision?)
\stopOT
\startQUESTION
The following minimal example yields an error:
\starttext
\startMPcode
input circle ;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
where circle.mp contains a btex...etex sequence:
draw fullcircle scaled 1cm ;
label (btex 1 cm etex , (0,0)) ;
The "input circle ;" will work if I comment-out or remove label ;
The minimal example will work, of course, if the mp code is
in my tex file.
The error message is:
mplib : loading 'metafun.mp' (experimental metapost version two)
! mp terminal: (circle.mp
>> circle.mp
>> circle.mpx
! Unable to make mpx file.
l.2 label (btex
1 cm etex , (0,0));
