Re: ConTeXt and Aleph

[Steffen Wolfrum <context@st.estfiles.de>]

Hi,

in order to use Aleph in ConTeXt I switched from MacOSX to WinXP.

I installed fptex from the latest TeXLive CD (Sept.2003)
installed the recent ConTeXt beta in my local tree,
installed also the latest (?) Aleph version from CTAN ("bin-aleph-1.15--2.2--RC2-win32-static.zip")
in the main tree and followed the steps Hans once wrote here:

The result was not working:
***

 TeXExec 4.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2003



            executable : aleph

                format : cont-en

             inputfile : alephtest1

                output : dvipdfmx

             interface : en

          current mode : none

               TeX run : 1



Der Befehl "aleph" ist entweder falsch geschrieben oder konnte nicht gefunden werden. 
[the command "aleph" is either misspelled or could not be found]

Der Befehl "cont-en" ist entweder falsch geschrieben oder konnte nicht gefunden werden. 
[the command "cont-en" is either misspelled or could not be found]



           return code : 256

              run time : 0 seconds



        total run time : 0 seconds

Then I tried the steps Idris recommend once:

> eomega --ini *plain \dump
> eomega --ini *cont-en
> texexec --make en -tex=eomega
> 
> are the relevant commands. eomega _is_ aleph.
> 
> ...

> Idris


The result was the same error output as above.


Could someone who has Aleph successfully running tell me his/her secret, please?

Thank you,
Steffen
