TEXINPUTS was quite useful, because every user could put his own personal directory in it, and there did not need to be an ls-R file.

[NTG-context] Keeping section head with index
I want to put an index in its own section using \section{Index} \placeindex I cannot use \completeindex because that starts a new chapter, not section. Unfortunately, the header often gets separated from the index, being left as the last line on the page. I searched the mail archive and found a suggestion to use: \setuphead[section][before={\testpage[4]}] but this affects the vertical spacing of all section heads. Can anyone either: 1) suggest an alternative way of keeping the section head with the index, or 2) show me how to maintain the vertical spacing of headers when using the above construct.

This depends on your system, on windows you could place them in c:\windows\fonts and context finds them, on a Mac you could put them in your local font directory and the y are also found. On linux you could set the OSFONTDIR variable with the path to your font directory.

[NTG-context] Interesting Bug with LuaTex, \setfontfeature{oldstyle}, colors and tikz
Hi! I wanted to use colors in my tikz-graphics. The following example gives a nice red line with "texexec": >>> \enableregime[utf-8] \mainlanguage [de] \setupcolors[state=start] \usemodule[tikz] \definecolor[zeug][r=1, g=0, b=0] \starttext \starttikzpicture \draw [zeug, line width=1ex, cap=round] (-7.65cm,-1mm) -- (7.65cm,-1mm); \stoptikzpicture \stoptext >>> When I compile my document with "texexec --lua" I get a black line.
