What I meant is the following. (Incidentally, I configured the finder so that it shows the ‘hidden’ files and directories, like /usr, too.) Now about installing and configuring minimals I went through all steps described on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals/Mac_Installationup till step 5 of ‘configuring’, which is: Step 5. In Terminal, type context --make and press Enter/Return. This yields: MtxRun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' Then I cd-ed stepwuse up to /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua, after each cd trying to perform step 5, and then finally I got: MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile cont-en LuaTools | no tex file with name: cont-en.tex LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.008 seconds MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile cont-nl LuaTools | no tex file with name: cont-nl.tex LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.009 seconds MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile mptopdf LuaTools | no tex file with name: mptopdf.tex LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.013 seconds MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile plain LuaTools | no tex file with name: plain.tex LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.008 seconds MtxRun | total runtime: 0.168 But for example cont-en.tex does exist on my Mac and it sits in /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/cont-en.tex These files are not found. So I am a bit at a loss at what to try next. Incidentally, step 1 of Configuring ConTeXt instructs me to create a file with a given line and save the file as .bash_profile, which, however, already exists. So I have added the line to the existing file. If this is correct, this possibility should perhaps be mentioned in the instructions. Thank you for your time and patience. Robert Blackstone
