OK, I tried several things to fix the error "Undefined control sequence. <argument> \c!gebied," but it persists. I wiped out my entire texmf.local tree and started from scratch because I thought the c!gebied was residing in some older file that ha dnot been overwritten. But even starting from scratch wouldn't amend the situation; after regenerating the format, I get the same error. However, grepping for "c!gebied" in the newly created tree gives only this result: grep -r 'c!gebied' ./* ./tex/context/base/cont-sys.ori:% \setupexternalfigures [\c!gebied={e:/fig/eps,t:/mine/figs}] ./tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme:% \setupexternalfigures [\c!gebied={e:/fig/eps,t:/mine/figs}] So this shouldn't be the problem since these two lines in cont-sys.rme are commented out. Does anybody have an idea where the error is coming from? There must be some old config file re-introducing it into the format file, but I can't seem to find it. Baffled Thomas

I had the same problem. There where two texexec.pl, one in perltk (the old place) and one in scripts/context/perl In the new texexec.pl the command is \c!directory. The Solution was to delete the perlscripts in the directory perltk. Hope this helps. Lutz

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, that's not the problem here: since I deleted the entire tree, there is no second texexec.pl in web2c/context/perltk (which is where the scripts used to reside). In your case, the problem went away after deleting the old scripts? Interesting, and mysterious. Best Thomas On Oct 11, 2004, at 2:55 PM, Lutz Haseloff wrote:

ah .. indeed, you need the texexec that matches the format! this is one of the changes in the new tds: scripts are now under tex/texmf.../scripts; one way to deal with such changes from now on, is to use texmfstart, i.e.: texexec.bat == @echo off texmfstart texexec.pl %* texmfstart will always be adapted to the latest changes in tds etc and tries to be downward compatible Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

strange, can you send me the log file?
