Not sure if it's for every package, but should be just "http://mirrors.ctan.org/"; .. data.ctan.path .. ".zip" in scripts.ctan.details. E.g. from https://ctan.org/json/2.0/pkg/lm: ctan.path = /fonts/lm => zip url = http://mirrors.ctan.org/fonts/lm.zip I think it may be better to get packages from TeX Live.

Re: [NTG-context] Errors in source files return success
Hi Hans, a followup to our conversation in the meeting: here's an MWE demonstrating that errors aren't passed on to the runner script, except for "logs.errors=missing characters", which in fact do return failure, all others do return success. %% enables logging of errors same as --errors \enabledirectives [logs.errors] \starttext %% ### semi simple group … entered at line \startalignment [middle] foo \stoptext Marco ___ 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 ___

[NTG-context] Syntax highlighting using LMTX
By the way: there exists a module which is capable of highlighting Java:

Hi,
is there a way to get some text between the head and the text of a description.
Enumerations have stoppers, but I couldn't find an equivalent setting for
descriptions:
\definedescription
[deflist]
[alternative=hanging,
width=fit,
headcommand=\groupedcommand{[BEFORE] }{ [AFTER]}]
\starttext
\startdeflist{Knuth}
\input knuth
\stopdeflist
\stoptext
