If you don't know why I had trouble, >try running it manually through MPto -tex, TeX, and DVItoMP. you have a name clash with a system file (somewhere else in your tex path); this can be solved by making sure that in case of context, tex searches on the local path first (can be done in texmf.cnf); i'm a bit puzzled, because context should make a fake file on the current path). Another option is to protect your temp job files with (in cont-sys.tex): \protectbufferstrue or more obscure, you can change the name of the temp files, \def\MPgraphicfile{\bufferprefix mp\ifMPrun run\else graph\fi} say mp -> mps , but first try the buffers 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
