Or is it just me :) Is Vista that different? On WINE, with TL installed to C:\texlive\2008, I got a little further, after editing context.cmd because wine set %~dp0% to the current path: @echo off setlocal REM set ownpath=%~dp0% set ownpath=C:\texlive\2008\bin\win32\ texlua "%ownpath%mtxrun.lua" --script context %* endlocal Having done this, I still see "not found" errors: $ context --make [... locating, loading ...] MtxRun | using script: C:/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua/mtx-contex t.lua MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile cont-enFile not found MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile cont-nlFile not found MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile mptopdfFile not found Have you tried using luatools to see if "mtx-context.lua" is found? It should be a trivial exercise to just move your TeXLive to a path without the space. Somewhere the changes to the registry are mentioned and are minimal, just the PATH setting, Also, watch for problems with settings left from old TeX installs (many MiKTeX users have TEXINPUTS). -- George N.
