ok, i have a lot of catching up to do because of the enormous
volume of mail hitting this list, but let me ask this.  all i want
is a simple alias/shell_script/stub/whatever to run context on
a .tex file.  that's all.  as someone coming from latex (a long time
ago) and running commands like "latex doc.tex" or "pdflatex doc.tex"
i always expected that to be "context doc.tex".  when i started using
context, it was "texexec doc.tex".

as a user i don't mind what's in the background, perl, shell, ruby
or a bone fide binary, all i'd like to do is have an official
(as opposed to hand rolled/home made) context command that runs
everything that is needed to process the .tex file.

is there something like that? if not, will be? :]
