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! ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
