Probably the first line of you .tex document contained something like this:

% interface=nl output=pdf

texexec scans your .tex file, looking for clues about what kind of file it
is (it auto-magically sees that the file uses English context if it contains
\startext instead of \starttekst). I noticed however that the auto
recognition doesn't always work, but I should first upgrade to the latest
texexec before sending complaints.

Not all options can be given in the first line. Lookup the texexec script
and check for yourself what it is doing.

Note: The problem with my texexec is that it can only do tex-files that are
there, meaning: I cannot compile a tex file which is not in the current
directory, but in $TEXINPUTS. I don't see this as a problem, I usually
create a symlink or so.

Gilbert.
