Thanx Aditya for reply.
I compile this ConTeXt file:
\starttext
\immediate\write18{context --version}
\stoptext
with last standalone version of ConTeXt (minimals). Below is the console
output and log file.
write18 is enabled on your system; I don't know why the shell command does
not work.
Try this instead (I assume that windows comes with the echo command):
\starttext
\writestatus{test}{before calling shell command}
\immediate\write18{echo HELP}
\writestatus{test}{after calling shell command}
\stoptext
Post only the output of the 2nd run (so that the console output is shown
once and not thrice).
How are you running context? (Typing the command from a terminal, or using
an IDE?)
