There is a utility called untex, that strips LaTeX formating from a tex file. I didn't test it with ConTeXt, but it may work too. If you can produce a dvi file, there is couple of programs: dvi2tty and catdvi that can extract text from a dvi file, Finally, pdftotext, which I believe is a part of the xpdf package, can extract text from many pdf files. Finally, there is a program called tex2page, that convert TeX to html. Unlike latex2html, it can handle at least some plain TeX, so it may be possible to use it on ConTeXt files. Again, I didn't try it. If you want to experiment with it, it is at http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/dorai/tex2page/tex2page-doc.html -- Jan Hlavacek (260) 434-7566 Department of Mathematics [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Saint Francis http://www.sf.edu/jhlavacek/ _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
