Hi, I have a problem with \useexternaldocument in a recent beta: ! I can't find file `file:/localhost/home/simon/programmeren/context/DocbookInC ontext/hasbook.tuo'. <to be read again> \relax \dodoreadfile ...normalinput \readfilename \relax \the \everyafterreadfile \doutilities ...textension }\donothing \donothing \the \everyafterutilityrea... <argument> ...ontext/hasbook}\empty \relax \relax \ifx \fileprefix \empty \e... \firstofoneargument #1->#1 \usereferences ...ist {#1}\loadedreferences \fi }} \stopnointerference ... l.9 ...ocbookInContext/hasbook][Hasselt in August] This happens when I have 'file:' in the file name, but not when I have a local file name without URI scheme in it. The problem seems to be in \doreadfile, which goes over to \dodoreadfile, which insists on finding this tuo file.

The file checker tries to recognize url's which is also needed for: \starttext \typefile{http://www.pragma-ade.com/index.htm} \stoptext Are you sure the file:/ should not be file://, or: what schemes should be supported?

Are you sure the file:/ should not be file://, or: what schemes should be supported?
A matter of much confusion. If I understand it correctly, file:/ is correct, file:// is definitely incorrect, and file:/// is supposed to be shorthand for file://localhost/, and is thus correct. The // introduce an `authority' (a host), and the file protocol (i.e. a file on the local filesystem) does not have one, or at best the localhost. The Lynx browser uses the localhost variant, with localhost explicitly in the URL. Mozilla uses the variant with ///.

These days I am payed to know these things. However, I am not the only one on this list who knows such details. And if it were about TeX, you would know them, and more.

Can you test it with the current beta? It works ok here. There has been problems with file loading around januari when i was implementing direct file access for graphics and so. Also, the latest mechanism is faster (keeps track of found files) and provides a switch for testing: \tracefilestrue Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
