Anybody using fpTeX or teTeX know about this? --tex=binary --format=formatname personally i think that gamma should just use a cont-* file, but with an ofmt extension; where etex can be distinguished by suffix, omega cannot, which is a bad thing since now one gets format clashes; i didn't experiment with this, but it may be possible to set the texformat paths in texmf.cnf on a per progrma basis (omega.texformats => .../web2c/omega) Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf ------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ref.ntg.nl http://ref.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
