It is possible that it is searching for a single executable
like in this example?

 total 16

[NTG-context] [OT] compiling pdfTeX 1.2 on MacOS X

2004-10-08 Thread Henning Hraban Ramm
Hello together!
I know, this is a bit OT, but...
The latest beta of ConTeXt needs pdfTeX 1.20, and I'd like to use it 
but the latest pdfTeX doesn't compile completely on my Panther, I 
always get the following last words after some making and compiling:

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile "gcc -no-cpp-precomp" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H 
 -I. -I../../../src/texk/kpathsea -I.. -I../../../src/texk/kpathsea/..  
 -g -O2  -DMAKE_KPSE_DLL -c ../../../src/texk/kpathsea/tex-file.c
"gcc -no-cpp-precomp" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../src/texk/kpathsea 
-I.. -I../../../src/texk/kpathsea/.. -g -O2 -DMAKE_KPSE_DLL -c 
../../../src/texk/kpathsea/tex-file.c -o tex-file.o
../libtool: line 1: gcc -no-cpp-precomp: command not found
make[1]: *** [tex-file.lo] Error 1
make: *** [../kpathsea/libkpathsea.la] Error 2

I don't speak C, so I don't understand if it tells that "gcc 
-no-cpp-precomp" is wrong (can't be, it works anywhere) or that libtool 
is wrong or what?

BTW: Is there any reason why sarovar.org is not reachable so often?
Now I got 1.20a from http://freshmeat.net/projects/pdftex/
Grüßlis vom Hraban!

Hello,

I've done all the things I can, but it just doesn't work, as the final result now I 
can use the old version, and very possibly I'll stay with it. anyway thanks a lot for 
all the quick replies!

Greetings,
Minchao

Re: [NTG-context] was: figuretext problem --- is: how to modify (presentation) styles

I have another question, though:
After looking at various 'built-in' documentation styles I am 
wondering about the best way
to modify one of these. I couldn't find any documentation besides how 
to use the
styles as they are. So, if I want to make (say) the "green style" blue 
and with smaller buttons,
are there setups for this? If yes, do I learn about these by looking 
at the source, or,  if no,
do I copy the source and try my best to mess around with it?

just overload them in your own style:
yourstyle.tex :
\usemodule[pre-green]
.. your modufications ..
yourdocument.tex:
\environment yourstyle
.. the text ..
I didn't figure out yet how to know which s-pre-xx.tex defines which 
style, but if you want to use and modify the green one, take a look at 
s-pre-02.tex or even better: general/sources/s-pre-02.pdf at pragma-ade 
website. The documentation there is not visual (like in other manuals), 
but pretty self-evident for someone with at least some minimal 
experience with ConTeXt.

To change the background color, after finding the following line in 
s-pre-02.tex:
   \definecolor [OrnamentColor][r= 0, g=.7, b=.4]

it is not difficult to guess that an additional line anywhere at the 
beginning of your document or style file, like:
   \definecolor [OrnamentColor][r= 0, g=.4, b=.7]
will change the color from green to blue.

To get smaller buttons, notice the \bottomheight used overall where the 
buttons are drawn. (In page-run.tex you can see that that 'bottom' is 
resposnsible to set the proper bottomheight.) So
   \setuplayout[bottom=.4cm]
should solve your problem. If you want to change the look of buttons 
more dramatically, simply copy and modify the lines:

\startuniqueMPgraphic{RightArrow}{height}
...
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
You can try to play with single portions of settings. A very beautiful 
thing in TeX is that one definition simply overloads the other, so it's 
not too difficult to modify a properly designed style.

[NTG-context] supp-mps

2004-10-08 Thread Vit Zyka
Hi,
there is an additional space in the end of the line 653 in supp-mps.tex
(latest alpha):
   \immediate\write\MPwrite{verbatimtex \MPinputtranslation etex ;}
It causes e.g. wrong left bbox border in

\startuseMPgraphic{c}

\stopuseMPgraphic
\startTEXpage
  \useMPgraphic{c}
\stopTEXpage

what file has the \c!richting?
from now on context is low level english, so either that file is a wrong

[NTG-context] Context release differences

2004-10-08 Thread Taco Hoekwater

Hi,

For those of you that are interested in such things, I've created a new
item on the wiki for the current ConTeXt distribution. It's not as detailed
as usual, because the amount of changes is staggering.

Did you regenerate your formats?

If no, do it.

Did you install MiKTeX's own ConTeXt package?

If yes, remove it (Before regenerating the ConTeXt format)
