That looks right for the root directory but there's a lot more than that for a working install, of course. In your first email you said you used the command "txrun": I've no idea what that is because I've never needed it. I just use the 'context' command so all you need do to check the install is working is (from your home directory) to run the command $ context --version If that gives sensible output (about 6 lines) then do $ context my_example.tex where "my_example.tex" is the name of the file containing your maths expression example as plain text. Hopefully you will get a successful run through resulting in a 'my_example.pdf' file containing a typeset version of the expression. If after that it's still not working then report back to this mailing list with the error details.

[NTG-context] font problem
I have had trouble processing text with diacritical marks using the more recent betas and the Brill font. Some of this can be remedied by re-entering the diacritical marks in the source file. (This works very well with Greek.) But there remain some problem passages. Consider: \definefontfamily[mainface][serif][Brill] %[TeX Gyre Termes] \setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt] \starttext ı̓tn und ı̓tn.t %Line 1 Altägyptischen%Line 2 \stoptext Note: (a) there is no problem at all with other fonts, e.g., Tex Gyre Termes (b) with the Brill font, the text fails to process when BOTH Line1 and 2 are included. The console readout is: tex error > tex error on line 1 in file /Users/bowen1/Desktop/TestTeX/fonttest.tex: ? \page ->\par \dosingleempty \page_breaks_process \strc_pagenumbers_flush_final_page ...\else \page [\p_strc_pagenumbers_page ... \dostoptext ...\strc_pagenumbers_flush_final_page \page \the \everystoptext ... l.1 \dostoptext \clf_stoptext ->\luafunction \16>>clf_stoptext l.10 \stoptext 1 >> 2 \definefontfamily[mainface][serif][Brill] %[TeX Gyre Termes] 3 4 \setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt] 5 6 7 \starttext 8 ı̓tn und ı̓tn.t 9 Altägyptischen 10 \stoptext 11 I have no idea where the problem here lies, whether it is with ConTEXt or with the Brill font.

[NTG-context] Font problem and font question
Hello again In Context Manual it is said that we can define new fonts. There is an example : \definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tfe = Regular at 48pt] I tried the text : *** \definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tfe = Regular at 48pt] \starttext \tfe gros texte \stoptext *** and the compiler answers *** ! Undefined control sequence I.5 \tfe gros texte *** I don't understand . Now a font question : is it a way to define casual (or cs) as italic, boldface or handwriting ? I wish to type {\cs casual} to get the world "casual" written with my LucideCasual font.

In any case, try to put \usetypescriptfile[type-gyr] to your cont-sys.tex (if you don't have it, just create one) and remake the formats. This will become the default setting in TeX Live 2008 anyway.
