Hi!
I updated my ConTeXt installation today and now it refuses to work
with TextMate and TeXworks. When I use the typesetting command on
either editor, I get the error message
mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'
The weird thing is that my ConTeXt standalone installation works on
command line (with "context myfile.tex").
I've used TextMate for a year and did not change anything there. Both
editors also have my ConTeXt directory
/Applications/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin/context as PATH variable (I
got a different error message on TeXworks before I edited the path
variable to include ConTeXt). So in theory everything should be
fine...
I first installed the newest ConTeXt and when it gave the above error
message, I switched to latest "stable" version (installation with
--context=current), but that didn't make any difference. My previous
installation was at least 3 months old, possibly quite a bit older.
This problem is not critical as I can use TextMate/TeXworks as editor
and compile on command line in Terminal, but it is a bit of a
nuisance not to be able to use the typesetting command in the editor.
So any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mari

Hi Mari,
I use TeXShop. TeXWorks is based on TeXShop.
For ConTeXt Standalone I use:
set path= (/Users/quayjay/context/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin $path /usr/local/bin)
mtxrun --script context --autogenerate --synctex=1 "$1"
This ensures that the environment is setup right.
Hope this helps
regards
Keith.

As you come from windows/scite you could try scite on osx. Unfortunately
I couldn't figure quit how to use the new context lexers on that platform.

I finally realized that I hadn't tried using ConTeXt from an editor
since I installed MacTeX Basic on this computer (the full package
refuses to download, even with Safari). So the problem wasn't in the
ConTeXt update but in what I did before that.
It took a bit of digging, but in a moment of inspiration I checked
/usr/ and found a symbolic link
texbin -> /Library/TeX/Distributions/.DefaultTeX/Contents/Programs/texbin
I *think* that was what wreaked havoc in my editors, because when I
_removed_ the texbin path from TextMate, ConTeXt started working again
in that editor.
So now I have TextMate for ConTeXt and TeXShop for LaTeX, and I'm
quite content with this arrangement; I don't mind having dedicated
software as long as it works and I've achieved that aim now.
Thank you all for your help in deducing that I indeed had a path
problem, that led me to find a (the?) solution.
Regards,
Mari

Hi Mari,
I cannot help you with your particular problem other than suggesting to give TeXShop a try.
I have used it for many years and it has never given me any problem whatsoever.
Just to make sure, I updated the standalone today (beta with all goodies) and again no problem.
Best regards,
Robert Blackstone

You editor probably isn't picking up ConTeXt because it's probably not on
the system path. I add the setuptex command at the end of .bashrc or
.bash_profile. This makes it accessible from the terminal, but not all
programs read in .bashrc or .bash_profile. You should add ConTeXt to your
editor's path, if possible.
