Message-ID: <87abjvxncs.fsf@googlemail.com> (raw)
hi folks,
I am new to ConTeXt. I had been a TeXinfo, Muse and LaTeX boy so far.
Now that I am into ConTeXt for the 2nd day it came to my attention that
there is for eample MkIV, luatex etc.
How do they fit together? Is there some sort of architecure chart
somewhere so newbies can get a hold within a few seconds?
Secondly, now that it seems MkIV is the new star will all my ConTeXt
knowledge be obsolete once luatex is going to be used? (Maybe I am just
making a fool out of myself even asking this but then I am totally new
to this whole subject so ...)
What I want is to write documents (papers, manual, theses, etc.) with
ConTeXt. So, is the time I am going to invest into learning and toying
around with ConTeXt a secure investment of my time or not i.e. ConTeXt
will be phased out or something (again, asking this might actually make
me look goofy :-)
tia for enlightening me!
