When context generates the mpgraph.mp and metapost is run its log file is: This is MetaPost, Version 0.641 (Web2C 7.3.1) (mem=metafun 2000.9.14) 14 SEP 2000 07:21 **&metafun mpgraph (mpgraph.mp) ! Emergency stop. <*> &metafun mpgraph *** (job aborted, no legal end found) However, if I manually say metapost &metafun mpgraph everything is fine. Groetjes, Berend. (-:
