You can also let different installed context versions exist side by
side, each in their own tree with their own format files. This lets
you run different Context versions simultaneously in different xterm
windows.
You can do this by setting an environment variable CTPATH to the root
of the desired Context tree and have a line such as
TEXMF = {$CTPATH;!!$TEXMFLOCAL;!!$TEXMFMAIN}
in your highest-priority texmf.cnf.
