I believe it is, but it seems that learning curve is steeper, while GeoGebra is quite easy to easy...However, I downloaded MetaPost manual and will test how it goes. > Because your (or someone's) mail application replaced -- with > emdashes. That I spotted and corrected, but I'm getting another error, I suppose: $ cat mp.tex \starttext Lorem Ipsum… \startMPcode draw ( (0,0)--(1,0)--(0,1)) with color red ; \stopMPcode \stoptext gives: $ context mp.tex mtx-context | run 1: luatex --fmt="/var/lib/texmf/luatex-cache/context/b47c3d3cee7cb6c86268d0595268c442/formats/luatex/cont-en" --jobname="mp" --lua="/var/lib/texmf/luatex-cache/context/b47c3d3cee7cb6c86268d0595268c442/formats/luatex/cont-en.lui" --no-parse-first-line --c:currentrun=1 --c:fulljobname="./mp.tex" --c:input="./mp.tex" --c:kindofrun=1 --c:maxnofruns=9 "cont-yes.mkiv" This is LuaTeX, Version 1.07.0 (TeX Live 2019/dev/Debian) system commands enabled. open source > level 1, order 1, name '/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-yes.mkiv' system > system > ConTeXt ver: 2018.04.04 00:51 MKIV beta fmt: > 2019.4.24 int: english/english system > system > 'cont-new.mkiv' loaded open source > level 2, order 2, name '/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-new.mkiv' close source > level 2, order 2, name > '/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/mkiv/cont-new.mkiv' > system > files > jobname 'mp', input './mp', result 'mp' fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded languages > language 'en' is active open source > level 2, order 3, name '/home/gour/prj/tex/mp.tex' fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (second stage) fonts > 'fallback modern-designsize rm 12pt' is loaded metapost > initializing instance 'metafun' using format 'metafun' metapost > loading 'metafun' as '/usr/share/texmf/metapost/context/base/mpiv/metafun.mpiv' using method 'default' metapost > initializing number mode 'scaled' tex error > mp error on line 6 in file /home/gour/prj/tex/mp.tex: >> currentpen.with !

Sincerely, Gour -- An intelligent person does not take part in the sources of misery, which are due to contact with the material senses. O son of Kuntī, such pleasures have a beginning and an end, and so the wise man does not delight in them. -- One must deliver himself with the help of his mind, and not degrade himself. The mind is the friend of the conditioned soul, and his enemy as well. ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
