Hi,
Do I really have to install ruby? I downloaded it, but can't find
anything like install, setup or something like this. Even the
readme is not very helpful at all. And another question: for
using Ruby - and therefore ConTeXt - do I need cygwin?
Regards,
Juergen

no, try to avoid cygwin
just download ruby (mswin version), unzip/install it in say c:\ruby and
then add c:\ruby\bin to your windows path

There are two alternatives for installing ruby. Take this one:

No. It does more harm than good.

Thanks, I'll give it a try (installation is already running).

After doing (2), you (well, not exactly you...) need to copy the
resulting format file into tex's searchpath and perhaps you need to
run mktexlsr again, so the format file will be found.

this has to do with the fact that miktex does not use the web2c path
searching tools, so you have to set things up explicitly

You can see at the end of teh log or at the beginning of a run which
languages are loaded.
texexec --make --language=fr,en en
will make you an english interface with french patterns
\mainlanguage[fr]
will give you french.
texexec --make --language=fr en
will default to french.
> used setting : TeXFormatPath =
you need to set this path in texexec.ini

Hi all,
I'm new to Context but I'm using succesfully LaTeX with the MikTeX
distribution on WinNT.
I have just installed Context and made the format files (en, uk,nl,de) as
described in the installation manual (minstall.pdf). I copied the fmt files
in the directories where MikTeX searches.
However, when I try to compile a simple test file, cont-en is not found. I
think I'm not alone in this case from what I can see from other messages.
Also I would like to make a french format file if possible. So I modified
the file cont-user.tex and uncommented the corresponding lines, but no
format file was created for french.
I join below the output of the compilation of the file "text.tex".
Thanks for any clue.
Yanick Michou
