Hi Cecil

just out of curiosity I installed TeXWorks under Windows (XP).

In order to let TeXWorks use the minimals one needs to set things up.

1. create a batch file e.g. TW-context.bat with the following content:

call c:\context\tex\setuptex.bat c:\context\tex
context "%~dpn1.tex"

I saved the file in the Owners folder.
Of course the path in the call statement must reflect the situation on your 
machine.

2 Start TeXWorks
3 Open under 'Edit' 'Preferences' and there the tab 'Typeseting'
4 Add in the top window with plus the path to the batch-file e.g. C:/Documents 
and Settings/Owner
5 Add with + in the processing tools window a new entry, fill the configuration 
screen in: Name: e.g. ContextMKIV
6 Fill the Programme: (easiest with the Browse button) C:/Documents and 
Settings/Owner/TW-context.bat
7 Add with + an new argument and fill in $basename
8 Click the checkbox to have TW showing the generated pdf
9 Click OK
10 Change the default tool to be used to ContextMKIV
11 Click OK

and you are done!

Have fun

Willi
