Thank you very much Wolfgang. You were a big help, as usual. It never came to my mind, that the Textadept lexer file context.lua in my working directory could interfere with mtxmrun, which is located elsewhere. I should also have tried to process files from another directory instead of trying it from another PC. But since on my tablet PC I only have one single TeX directory, it didn't come to my mind to try another one. So again, thank you.

Cheers, Lars.

P. S.: From what I read so far you're a real TeX genius. It's always a pleasure to write with you.

P. P. S.: Some people really should learn from you, not only when it comes to TeX.

mtxrun loads the wrong lua file, while it should load mtx-context.lua it actually uses context.lua.

Since there is no context.lua in the distribution I guess context.lua is one of your files you put in the text directory, remove this file (or put it in a different folder) and ConTeXt should work again.

Hello list,

since one of the last beta updates (now I have 2018.09.01) I can't use ConTeXt on my Win 10 32bit tablet anymore. I can't make PDFs because I get an error message. In fact, with CTX in my system path of course, even when I type the following into my command prompt, I get the same error:

mtxrun --script context

./context.lua:11: attempt to call a nil value (method 'add_rule')

This could have to do with the last adaption to Textadept 10. On my Win 10 x64 PC there is no problem. Any clues?

Cheers and thanks, Lars.
