=== version tag ===
: ConTeXt versioning system unvisible to the users (user interface is the same), distinguishing the developement of ConTeXt low level interface and the use of different TeX [[#engine|engines]]. Most of the files are same for all versions, but some of them (fonts, encodings, file handling) may be different and they come with different suffixes (<code>somefile.mkii</code>, <code>somefile.mkiv</code>). Read more on internal versioning in [[manual:mk.pdf| ConTeXt, mkii & mkiv]].
