Re: [NTG-context] new beta

[Thomas A . Schmitz]

Hmm, I just downloaded the latest and greatest beta, and it seems to be 
broken. The output of "texexec --version" is

texexec --version

Every run of context hangs with this message:

ConTeXt exited abnormally with code 1 at Thu Apr 14 16:26:26
I get the same error both under Mac OS X and linux, so it doesn't 
appear to be anything platform-specific. Hans?

Hi,
There is a new beta as well as a new magazine:
  http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/magazines/mag-0010.pdf
concerning the beta, i hope that engine path support is now better in 
texexec; there is also a new version of pstopdf (for the moment called 
newpdftops); when   inkscape is installed (v 0.41) you mag give svg to 
pdf a try

concerning on the fly conversion ... i need to make a new manual (or 
magazine) explaining it first;

among the new things is 'typescript definitions in your source file' 
(makes sense for small typescripts, not for large ones); see 
cont-sys.rme for a new option (\preloadtypescripts; it burns some 
memory but it's faster)
