I have downloaded
cont-mpd.zip cont-ppc.zip cont-tmf.zip
and unzipped them into
texmf-dist of my 2014 TL (and rebuilt the formats and ls-R).
I have tried mtxrun --script update but it fails with
resolvers | tds | no 'texmf-linux-64' under tree
'/opt/luatex/texlive/2014/tex'
(with a missed newline in my linux box)
The example works if one copies colo-rgb.mkii as colo-rgb.tex in the same
folder of the example
so I guess that we need to find a suitable location for colo-rgb.tex in the
tds
(I dont know if it's safe to add colo-rgb.tex to the base folder of
context, but I suspect it is not)

Re: [NTG-context] PSTricks in Context
Hi Luigi,
The example works if one copies colo-rgb.mkii as colo-rgb.tex in the same
folder of the example ...
It is OK by changing
line 46 in m-pstricks.mkii:
\loadpstrickscolors{colo-rgb}}
to
\loadpstrickscolors{colo-rgb.mkii}}
as Herbert said.
In the recent beta's, the change was already done.
Best,
Akira

yes right --- I have downloaded the "current" into TL,
but one can do the same with the zips of "beta" and have the correct

I have a script cpCTX2TL which installs the current beta and
then copies all relevant files into the current TL installation.

[NTG-context] problem with \processaction
Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\def\SystemUser{whoami}
\def\CheckUser{\processaction[\SystemUser][whoami=>whm]}
\starttext
\doifelse{\CheckUser}{whm}{This is the right user.}
{This is the wrong user.}
\doifelse{\SystemUser}{whoami}{This is the right user.}
{This is the wrong user.}
\SystemUser\ is \CheckUser
\stoptext
Why doesn’t the first \doifelse work? What am I missing there?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

[NTG-context] command to get the text value?
Dear list,
sorry for writing again on the same topic. The issue is important and I
don’t know how to solve it.
I have a different sample:
\def\firstcommand{AAA}
\def\secondcommand{aaa}
\starttext
\doifelse{\word{\firstcommand}}
{\secondcommand}{Equal}{Not equal}.
\stoptext
I understand that A and a are different characters. Is there no command
to get the pure text from another command?
Or how could I get equal values in the sample above?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

if really needed i can write such a comparison but keep in mind that
\word is not some simple string manipulator so you can never rely on
such a comparison

Many thanks for your reply, Hans.
Is there no other way to get the text value (so that it could be
compared with \doif) from a command that assigns values using
\processaction?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
