Marco, many thanks. By the way, how can I load the `luatex-plain.fmt` by default when typing "luatex somefile.tex"? Date: Sat, 20 Apr 2013 12:05:25 +0200 From: homerow@lavabit.com To: ntg-context@ntg.nl Subject: Re: [NTG-context] use plain LuaTeX in ConTeXt standalone On 2013�C04�C20 Tim Li wrote:
Hi, many context users are also luatex user, and the context standalone also contains luatex binary (windows). I input the 'luatex' in the cmd, but it can't work. The message is as follows: d:\>luatex luatex This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.77.0-2013041621 (rev 4633) \write18 enabled. **\relax I can't find the format file `luatex.fmt'!kpathsea: Running mktexfmt luatex.fmtThe command name is D:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin\mktexfmt Since there is not mktexfmt in the context standalone, is that mean I can't use plain luatex in the context standalone?
1) Create a file ��luatex-plain.tex�� with the following context: \input plain \directlua {tex.enableprimitives('', tex.extraprimitives())} \pdfoutput=1 \everyjob \expandafter {% \the\everyjob \input luatex-basics\relax \input luatex-fonts\relax \input luatex-mplib\relax } \edef\fmtversion{\fmtversion+luatex} \dump 2) Build the format: luatex --ini luatex-plain.tex 3) Compile with: luatex --fmt=luatex-plain.fmt somefile.tex 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://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
