Dear Hans and the rest of the gang,

This is just a friendly reminder for the next ConTeXt version. There is a bug 
in the ctxtools.

Consider the original-public-lm.map. Lines such as

cmbsy10 cmbsy10
cmbsy5 cmbsy5
cmbsy6 cmbsy7

should become either

cmbsy10 default cmbsy10
cmbsy5 default cmbsy5
cmbsy6 default cmbsy7

partucularly when the name of the tfm and pfb do differ;

or just

cmbsy10 
cmbsy5 
cmbsy6

where the name of the tfm and pfb do NOT differ.

Otherwise dvipdfmx will fail-(

Probably easier to just do

<tfm> default> pfb>

for all such cases...

The map files are pdftex/dvips syntax (like before, i
believe). My guess is that dvipdfmx needs a private 
fonts/map/dvipdfmx/context subdir. Wouldn't that work?

Cheers,
Taco

It mentions "support for file preprocessing".  Is there any
documentation available?  I'm guessing that this is to allow us to add
things like syntax highlighting (me and Mojca?) through Vim.  Is this
correct?  If so, it would be nice to know how to use it soon, so that we
can get cracking.  I'd rather use Vim's Ruby highlighting than writing a
verb-ruby.tex...
