Hi

I've been playing about with Export in Context with a view to producing 
ePubs.

When I run the script:

/mtxrun --script epub --make test.specification

/the test.tree is prepared but no epub file.  The output shown below has 
a couple or 'error' messages which are probably due to the way my text 
editor is set up (Scite Version 2.02).  If anyone is using Scite and 
producing ePubs I be grateful for some hints on how to set this up so 
that inkscape and zip works.

%%Script Output

I'm using Minimals ConTeXt  ver: 2011.09.27 20:05 MKIV  fmt: 2011.11.19  
int: english/english on a Windows 7 machine and the test.tex file is the 
|export-example.tex file renamed from the Minimals distribution|.

Thanks
Keith McKay

This is unrelated to scite (btw, you run a pretty old scite).

you need to install inkscape (just google for it) as well as zip (often 
part of gnu binutils)

Hans
Thanks for the hints.

I downloaded inkscape but but still get the same error message.  I'm not 
too concerned about that just now.  Unfortunately I couldn't find zip so 
I played about with 7-Zip and managed to get the script to work.  It's 
still work in progress since I'm not sure I have the switches right but 
I edited the epub generation part of mtx-epub.lua to look like this:

os.execute(format("7z a -tzip -mx0 %s %s",epubfile,"mimetype"))
os.execute(format("7z a -tzip %s %s",epubfile,"META-INF"))
os.execute(format("7z a -tzip %s %s",epubfile,"OPS"))

and using a simple css file I can view the test epub in Adobe Digital 
Editions.

I'm used to using Sigil to edit ePubs and Context but luatex is all new 
territory for me.

Thanks
Keith

I've added this method too, so when zip is not found, 7z is tried ... I 
didn't test it.

Updated Context and ran my test file.  It seems to work as I would 
expect on my computer.  The output from Scite is below.

Thanks again for your help.
