This is not a good idea... see below: > --> texexec --make metafun > TeXExec 1.9 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2000 > fmtutil: no info for format `cont-metafun'. the texexec is way too old. The best thing is to download a new context distribution. See http://www.pragma-ade.com/ and the context download is at http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/cont-tmf.zip. I do not think that it makes any sense to stick with the old tools. You could of course generate a metafun format with inimpost metafun if you use tetex with linux (which I guess). And put this metafun.mem in a path that will be searched by kpathsea (try 'kpsepath mem'). Patrick -- I'll fade into the darkness
