If it doesn't, the "standard ConTeXt" ways fail anyway and searching for files doesn't always work either - I often have problems after upgrading ConTeXt, but I can hardly tell you what to do. I try all the different tricks (updating filename database, building the formats, ...) without any success, but after two days it simply works again by some black magic. > << > texexec test.txt > > TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 > > unknown file type: texmfscripts > fixing texformat path : C:/localtexmf/miktex/fmt > fixing engine variable : pdfetex > > total run time : 0 seconds > >> That's the output that I get if the file doesn't exist. Can you make a file "test.tex" (not txt) and try to compile that one? Send the new report then (if there are any differences of course). > texexec --version > and > << > TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 > > unknown file type: texmfscripts > texexec : TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE > 1997-2005 > texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE > 1992-2004 > tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.4) > (preloaded format=3Dcont-en 2006.1.15) 15 JAN 2006 11:32 > context : ver: 2006.01.09 > cont-en : ver: 2006.01.09 fmt: 2006.1.15 mes: english > unknown file type: 'fmt' > unknown file type: 'fmt' > unknown file type: 'fmt' > unknown file type: 'fmt' > unknown file type: 'fmt' > unknown file type: 'fmt' > unknown file type: 'fmt' > unknown file type: 'fmt' > > total run time : 1 seconds I also get this output since December (I thought that ConTeXt was broken at first), but it is harmless and compiling the documents nevertheless works. Perhaps that extensive use of "unknown file type: 'fmt'" is the new Taco's inclusion that Hans mentioned in some other mail ;) "unknown file type: texmfscripts" should also be harmless and will disapear once MikTeX starts to support the new pdfTeX (if I understood correctly).
