New context Release notes

New context Release notes

[Taco Hoekwater]

Hi there,

For those of you who are interested, Hans has released a new ConTeXt last 
week, and I've created a release notes pages for it here:

	http://contextgarden.net/Context_2004.12.06

Highlights:
* texfont.pl is now version 2.2.1. From now on, it uses internal filename 
  globbing (using a new switch: --pattern=<wildcard>) instead of the shell 
  wildcard expansion. 
  Obviously, this means that the commandline has changed.

* most other changes are bugfixes, follow the link for those.

Greetings, Taco

this extension is downward compatible; i added the --pattern option because on 
unix wildcards in type-*.dat runs can give funny side effects because they may 
get expanded at the shell level (depending on place and time)

Hello,

In http://contextgarden.net/Context_2004.12.06 :
    ctxtools.rb: no understands a new option, --jeditinterface (generates syntax
                     descriptions for 'jedit')

Great news for a jedit user. How could I use it ?

Thanks,

  Seb

(normally one cna generate the files locally; i'll add them to the distribution)

see attachedment; support for tex/etex/pdftex/omega primitives as well as 
context commands

you should put the files in your local jedit modes path (watch out for 
overwriting the catalog)

if you have figured out how to comfortably run tex (see scite files for calls) 
we can add that as well

patrick: how about some editor specific threads in the wiki (scite, jedit, ...) 
(maybe they're already there);

it's no problem to generate specific command lists for other editors

Now that Gerben Wierda has updated the Mac installer to support this
version, everything should be in place for Mac users to try this release.
There's a chunk of documentation in place on the wiki:

Nice. 

> cont-log.tex: new logo \XeTeX, and a synonym for it: \PDFETEX (why?)

Indeed, that can't be right. Perhaps:

\let\XETEX  \XeTeX

?

   Lindsay)
