Hi Hans,
Thanks for your attention and the new SyncTeX option: I just made some testing
with the beta from today and it seems to work. So for being useful to others,
the command I use now in TeXShop and MacOS X is:
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH
context --synctex=zipped --autogenerate "$1" --purgeall
Best regards: OK
