Is there any rationale not to have texmfcnf.lua alongside context.cnf and contextcnf.lua under web2c with the current standalone installation? Because on TeX Live infrastructure alone, I have my doubts that that file will be somehow generated magically. would it? Of course I could probably scrounge it off somewhere but it's also besides the point On the current installation of a standalone relying solely on what tewmf/webc holds is… well. > ___________________________________________________________________________________ > If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the > Wiki! > > maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / > https://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context > webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net > archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ > wiki : https://contextgarden.net > ___________________________________________________________________________________ > -- Time sharing: The use of many people by the computer. ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : https://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
