compiling cont-eni

compiling cont-eni

[Shiv Shankar Dayal]

Hi,

I have sources of context cont-eni.pdf. When I try to compile them I
get lots of errors. I am using Mark IV. However, I am successfully
able to compile Metafun manual using texexec. Any clues?

Maybe you are able to compile cont-eni with markii ie, something like
$>texexec cont-eni.tex

This is the error I get with MarkII.

I got another interesting point. Adobe Reader reports that the
application which generated original cont-eni.pdf is TeX. But for my
compiled cont-eni.pdf it is ConTeXt - 2009.10.2 13:14. Why it is
different?

For the original file it says "ConTeXt/www.pragma-ade.com/cont-en.tex"
as creator. I wonder how is that possible. :)

Re: compiling cont-eni

Hi,

Thanks for being so patient and helping me. But we should not get
diverted from the original problem. What do you think is the reason
for that error? Also, I am getting tex size exceeded[parameter stack
size=6000] with MarkIV. In mailing list there is a thread which
mentions about tex.ch but I cant find it. I have installed using
rsync.

I never tried to compile manuals, because I consider them a property of
pragma .
For me, having  cont-en(i).pdf and sources is enough.
But, true, can be a bug in markii .
Or a misconfiguration that I don't understand now.

cont-eni was written in 2001. It will not compile with MKIV. There has 
been many changes in the internals since 2001, so it is not surprising 
that it does not compile even with MKII. Usually, such errors can be 
corrected with a few changes. Where did you get the source files that you 
are testing on?

I do not remember exactly when I got the source but I remember it was
through some link of wiki.contextgarden.net. If you recall Aditya we
had a discussion regarding vim syntax highlighting. It is of that
time.

Also, I have a fresh setup of context and I found that you t-vim.tex
has a line "source kpse:2context.vim" which I had to modify to "source
kpsewhich:2context.vim".

The reason I was asking for the source is because I do not get the errors 
that you mention with the latest svn version of the manual. Specifically,

svn checkout svn://ctx.pragma-ade.nl/manuals
cd manuals/context

texexec cont-en

gives me a working pdf file. There are two errors: the first

! Font \**test**:=texnansi-lbr at 60.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file 
not found.

because I do not have lucida fonts, and the second

! Undefined control sequence.
l.3 ...espace \let\ShowTokenFont\relax \ShowTokens
                                                      Serif\end}  {}

which I did not investigate. In any case, pressing enter a couple of times 
lets me continue. The resulting pdf is not exactly same as the one on 
pragma's website, but you can compile the manual.

kpse:2context.vim used to work. I will check that again, and perhaps 
replace the kpse searching with a luatex function (Hans showed how to do 
that a while back).
