These are not users in the system! > How and where are these variables acquired? texos is only used to guess the texmf-[texos]/bin path so, indeed, if you don't conform to the minimal structure it is not that meaningful anyhow, you have no configuration file in a known place so you can try to set it yourself (TEXMFCNF=path_to_your_cnffile) you cannot expect the minimals to work with arbitrary tree setups normally this problem is just a side effect of putting binaries in a spot that the SELF* variables cannot relate to you can have extra bins of course, for instance I have (as i need to test it): texmf-mswin texmf-mswin-new texmf-mswin-texlive and set up my console with: SET PATH=%MYTEXROOT%\texmf-mswin-live\bin;%PATH% SET PATH=%MYTEXROOT%\texmf-mswin\bin;%PATH% SET PATH=%MYTEXROOT%\texmf-mswin-new\bin;%PATH% so, the newest bins are taken first (under texroot are also the regular minimal paths as wel as texmf-mine that has some dev files) ... so there are plenty of ways to extend the minimals also, I have a couple of dev paths added to the regular paths and do that in a local extra texmfcnf.lua file (multiple files are supported) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl ----------------------------------------------------------------- ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
