If you so happen to have the link, please post it. And a question directed to the developers, why didn't you chose 'ConTeX', google doesn't like 'ConTeXt' it gets confused. I'm pretty sure users have noticed this. -- Thanks Mohamed Bana ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
