The way miktex is configured, it provides a texexec.exe file in its bin directory. Context provides a texexec.bat file in its bin directory. Normally, texexec is supposed to be run using texmfstart which picks texexec.rb from the script directory and everything works fine. There are however some macros that call texexec without texmfstart. As a result the miktex texexec (texexec.exe) is called over context's texexec.bat. I am listing the files that call raw texexec. Shouldn't all of these be called using texmfstart? 1. core-fig.tex has a line \executesystemcommand{texmfstart texexec.pl --batch --pdf #1 #3}} Notice the texexec.pl 2. page-app.tex has a line \executesystemcommand{texexec \bufferprefix\@@texapp.tex --once --batch} No texmfstart 3. supp-mps.tex has a definition \def\executeMPTEX#1% {texexec .... } No texmfstart Some support scripts also use texexec without texmfstart 1. mptopdf.pl has a line $mpbin = 'texexec --mptex $PassOn' } 2. texfont.pl has if ($show) { system ("texexec --once --silent $texfile") } 3. texsync uses system("texexec --make --alone #{str}") 4. ctxtools.rb uses one = "texexec --make --alone --all #{interface}" two = "texexec --batch --silent --interface=#{interface} x-set-01" 5. pdftrimwhite uses $result = `texexec --batch --once --purge $resultfile` } 6. makempy.pl uses $tex{context} = "texexec --batch --once --interface=en --pdf" ; -- Aditya Mahajan, EECS Systems, University of Michigan http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~adityam || Ph: 7342624008
