ConTeXt terminal - any volunteers for testing?

[Mojca M. <moj...@gm...>]

Hello,

I have uploaded a new version of ConTeXt terminal.

Here are some sample demos created with it:
    http://dl.contextgarden.net/misc/gnuplot-context.zip
and some real-world usage:
    http://www.nibua-r.org/ConTeXt/PhD/

Just for comparison, you can also take a look at this example:
    http://dl.contextgarden.net/misc/enhancedtext.pdf
    http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo_4.3/enhancedtext.html

The terminal supports all the 4.2 features except images, palettes
(partially finished, but not yet complete) and enchanced text (the
latter is not going to be supported - see example above - since TeX
offers better rendering quality for free; images and palettes will be
completed in a later stage - TeX has problems passing huge portions of
code to metapost anyway).

Instructions for trying it out can be found on the site with a patch itself:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1654807&group_id=2055&atid=302055

One needs a reasonably recent TeX distribution. Now that TeXLive is
available (for Debian as well), it should be more straightforward to
try it out (half a year ago it wouldn't work on most TeX
distributions, as it doesn't work with teTeX either).

The terminal doesn't require any external libraries or special
configuration, so compiling it with the rest should be
straightforward.
