Hi,
I'm trying to get the list of currently known fonts through
mtxrun --script fonts --list
under SciTE/Ubuntu and get the following message
...text/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/font-syn.lua:278: attempt
to index field 'data' (a nil value)
What's that ?

probably a failure to either save or load the database; could be
anything; is there a names.tma in the cache?

Did luatools --verbose --generate, then searched for *.tma, then names
in /opt/context and the only one found was contextnames.txt
Then ran mtxrun --script fonts --list again and now there's names.tma
and names.tmc.
Thanks.
