Thank you, Aditya--
I had run C:\context\tex\setuptex.bat and then tried
C:\context>context firstfile.tex
which worked (now down to 3+ secs from 11+ at first run--file = \starttext
Hello World \stoptext)
I think I can get this setuptex.bat automated for random context runs but,
for some reason(s) C:>context somefile.tex will not work globally on my
personal computer (Lenovo x100e) over which I have admin control (maybe I
am not a good admin?) and I have added C:\context\tex\texmf-mswin\bin to my
PATH
I still get "Lua script not registered" complaint when I try to compile
outside of C:\context directory
I suppose I could live with keeping all binaries and docs in C:\context,
but that is not so inviting compared to being able to pdfLaTeX a doc over
Dropbox via MikTeX for example.
I use windows here and it works ok, so it should be possible to get it
working. In principle the only thing needed is to add the tex bin path
to the environment variable PATH (beware there are two of them). From an
editor, you can best run 'mtxrun --script context ...'.
Is the cache generated? Has there been an initial 'mtxrun --generate'?
