Hello,
I'm trying "ConTeXt on CD" using
http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/tex.iso.bz2
First of all: it is really amazing ! Everything needed for ContTeXt on one CD
and ready to use. I'll keep this CD in my pocket for now :-)
Since I'm a nasty user, here are a suggestion and some problems:
1/ What about adding a shortcut to cscite.bat under the CD's root or an
autorun.inf? It would be much more natural than usr/local/context/cscite.bat
2/ With the last version, 29-Mar-2004 21:35, when I try to "compile" readme.tex
(copied on hard-disk and opened with scite) with Ctrl+F7 (concheck readme.tex)
I've got a "file not found" error.
3/ When I try to build the same file I've got the following error:
fonts : [palatino] [texnansi] []
! I can't find file `.\type-syn'.

[palatino,12pt]
Please type another input file name:
If I replace
\usetypescript[palatino][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[palatino,12pt]
with
\setupbodyfont[12pt]
A readme.pdf file is produced.
4/ I can open the readme.pdf file with acrobat but Crtl+2 (Tools/View PDF file)
a message box pop up with the message:
Error while launching "gsview32.exe" with Params: "readme.pdf" The specified
file was not found.
Thank you once again Mr Hagen, for ConTeXt and now for its CD :-)

i'd like that but somehow i cannot get the icon working; i'm thinking of a
root startup as well (extra); the /usr construct is needed because we have
more than context -)

hm, will check
I also found some ways around the tmp path problem (spaces in names of
paths and so)
