Re: [NTG-context] Problem with first setup of StandAlone ConTeXt

2015-12-16 Thread Otared Kavian 
Hi Bruce,

You have three solutions in order to solve the TeXShop issue. Here they are: 

Solution 1: add the following line at the top of your source file:

%!TEX TS-program = mkiv

Note that in the above you should replace « mkiv » with whatever engine name 
known to your TeXShop installation (for instance « ContextSuite», or any other 
name you have, or (may God forgive both of us…) even « latex »…). When you 
typeset with ConTeXt, the TeXShop will use the chosen engine.

Solution 2: when your source file is open you should have at the top your 
window a small menu named « Program ». Click on that menu and among the 
programs (that is the engines) choose th eone you want.

Solution 3: open the TeXShop Preferences and in the « Typesetting » pane , on 
the upper left part of the resulting window choose the radio button « Command 
listed below » and type the name of your preferred engine.

Best regards: OK

I see, thanks.  I did use --engines=luatex.  I was aware that Mark II had been 
superseded by Mark IV, but I hadn't realized that texexec was the same thing as 
Mark II.  OK, so I won't worry about that issue any more.

It seems that my only remaining problem is the aforementioned TeXShop issue.  I 
will keep working on it.

Best,
Bruce

That document is a very old one. Nowadays context is preferred to
texexec (also known as Mark II or MkII). If you installed context with
--engines=luatex you explicitly did not installed prerequisites for
Mark II (pdftex with fonts etc.).

Re: [NTG-context] Problem with first setup of StandAlone ConTeXt

2015-12-16 Thread Bruce Boghosian 
Dear Otared:

Thank you for your reply.

I had indeed created the file "ConTeXt Suite.engine" in directory 
~/Library/TeXShop/Engines, per the instructions on the Mac Installation web 
page.  That web page recommended a tcsh shell version of your bash shell 
script.  I suppose that either should be fine; at this point, I have tried 
both.  Of course, I changed the path variable to include my local installation 
of ConTeXt.

Then I noticed that your engine was named "mkiv.engine," rather than "ConTeXt 
Suite.engine," so I tried that as well.

As of this morning, none of the above tactics seem to succeed in getting 
TeXShop to recognize ConTeXt.  When I try to process the test file from within 
TeXShop, it continues to terminate with the error that it does not recognize 
the command \startsection.

Again, however, everything works just fine from the command line.  So I think 
that the ConTeXt installation is fine.

Also, FWIW, I note that de Boer's document, "LaTeX in proper ConTeXt" 
recommends compiling from the command line using texexec rather than context.  
This does not work for me.  The command "texexec" exists, and I can run it, but 
it does not produce a .pdf file -- just a .tmp file.

Anyway, sorry for the newcomer questions.  Once I get over this hurdle, so that 
I can run ConTeXt easily from within TeXShop, I am confident that I will be 
able to learn the language without bothering the list so frequently.

Best regards,
Bruce
