I downloaded and installed Texlive. I am able to run Latex and some other programs, but I tried various ways, unsuccesfully, to run context. For example I tried running texmfstart texexec.rb hello.tex and some other combinations, and nothing happened. I went to the PRAGMA-ADE website and downoaded cont-tmf into the texmf-local directory and unzipped it. Then I tried texexec -make -all and a few other combinatins and nothing happened. I have Perl v5.10 installed, and I use editor EMACS with AUCTEX assistance would be much appreciated, Philip Brown ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
