Hi all,
I am experiencing some trouble using mswincontext.zip.
I have properly installed perl and ruby as the wiki says.
(http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_Installation#Stand-alone_ConTeXt_dist
ribution)
But when it comes to use cdemo.bat I got:
>texmfstart newtexexec.rb --autopdf --pdf demo-tex.tex
TeXExec | processing document 'demo-tex.tex'
TeXExec | provide ctx file
TeXExec | tex processing method: context
TeXExec | TeX run 1
TeXExec | tex engine: pdfetex
TeXExec | tex format: cont-en
TeXExec | progname: context
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.3-2.2 (Web2c 7.5.5)
\write18 enabled.
I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'!
TeXExec | runtime: 2.594
>Exit code: 0
I thought this was a "click and go" package installation. I guess I have to
do some format creation and all that, but I have nothing TeXy installed
(just the mswincontext.zip). What do I need?
Thanks in advance,
jima

I get exactly the same problem today. I decided to install the latest
mswincontext.zip since I hadn't updated for some time. I've never been sure
of the update process so I thought this would be the best thing to do.
Luckily I still have a an old versine which I installed and worked fine.
It's dated 23 september 2005. I have to say I would prefer the most
uptodate version with respect to bug fixes etc..
Thanks
Keith

Sorry, this step is missing on Wiki (forgotten).
Can you try the following:
Open command line (Start->Run->cmd) and do either a) or b):
a) "cd" to directory where cdemo.bat resides, execute it and exit
(this will set the path for you)
b) execute (this should be in one line):
C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat
C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex
(change "C:\Programs\context" to the proper folder)
Then execute
texexec --make --all
The last one is the crucial step for making formats.
Perhaps "making formats" should be present in menu in Scite (perhaps
it already is, I can't check from here).

Hi,
thanks ! that did it for me...
I did (a) and then (b) :)
Here is the sequence I used (assuming C:\Programs\context)
Start->Run->cmd
cd C:\Programs\context
cdemo.bat
Then I closed the SciTe thing but I remained in the cmd.
Then, in one line as Mojca says:
C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat
C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex
And
texexec --make --all
Then I closed the cmd, started by double click the cdemo.bat and voila !
Thanks !

there is also a colsole in scite itself (just key in texexec --make --all in the log pane)

And me to! Thanks!
Would some kind soul care to write up on the Wiki the best way to update the
windows stand alone version? Please.
