The vim module is demonstrated in my book (like most other modules that
make sense), otherwise I’m using the scite module für syntax highlighting.
As I said, I’ll investigate that later.
ok. it might relate to vim not being in the permitted executables list (in
the cnf file)
I have debugged completely, but part of the error is a failing check to see if
a file is writable.
\starttext
\ctxcommand{doifnot(file.is_writable("test-file.tmp"))}
{NOT}
Writable
\stoptext
On my system, it outputs "NOT writeable" with 2026.10.25.
we now have this:
file.canbewritten
so the iswritable is for an existing file (dir.* file.*) which is more
accurate
