metafun in LaTeX?

metafun in LaTeX?

[Jean Magnan de Bornier]

Hi all,

This question has been asked on the french tex group: is (would) it
possible to use the metafun macros with LaTeX - and how?

I said I'd ask here...
TIA

Metafun is a mpost format, and therefore it generally does not care how
it is embedded in a surrounding document. The only exception is when
you use metapost macros that run TeX for typesetting, these will
assume ConTeXt's texexec is running as makempx, and it therefore
generates ConTeXt-specific macros for labels and such.

Best wishes,
Taco
