Dear Hans & Adam,
Thanks!
It was indeed my installation of perl on my Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 "Woody"
rev2 that was simply incomplete! After having installed the Digest
module texexec did run!
Adam. after having solved the problem with Perl, your hints to use
oldfigures in combination with the Latin Modern font worked with TeXLive
2005!
A do have a final question about fonts in ConTeXt. Most of the time it
suffices to use the pre-defined typefaces that come with ConTeXt, but
what if one wants to alter them slightly? Well, one can try reading the
manual Fonts in ConTeXt and TeXfont Explained! But to me those manuals
are too difficult to read. So perhaps I should refrain from considering
to modify typefaces and leave that to the experts. But I'd like to
understand a bit more about the fonts stuff in ConTeXt.
Maybe a very, very basic description of typescripts, fonts and typefaces
will do a good job for the less advanced ConTeXt users?
Regards,
Gerard
