I went to pragma-ade and followed the links to find pdftex 14h. By the way, I am a little confused about the stable pdftex numbering scheme (like 1.11a) and how it relates to the 14h numbering scheme. I got the cont-tmf-20030925.zip and unpacked it in my texmf directory. I copied each foo.pl file in context/perltk to ../bin/foo (no ".pl" extension), made sure /opt/tetex-2.0.2/bin was in my $PATH, made sure texexec.ini was there, ran fmtutil --edit to activate the context formats, ran fmtutil --all to generate the formats. OK, but texexec was just showing the usage. I read the minstall.pdf document to see if I missed anything, but I couldn't find anything. Just to see what would happen, I then got pdftex 14h and unzipped it in the bin dir, moving the pool files to texmf/web2c. Then I did mktexlsr and fmtutil --all, but I see this error message in the output: running `pdfetex -ini -jobname=cont-en -progname=context *cont-en.ini' ... pdfetex: unrecognized option `-jobname=cont-en' Try `pdfetex --help' for more information. Error: `pdfetex -ini -jobname=cont-en -progname=context *cont-en.ini' failed ...

The --verbose option doesn't change that. Any suggestions or pointers would be most appreciated. -- --Ed L Cashin | PGP public key: ecashin@uga.edu | http://noserose.net/e/pgp/
