What follows are some queries that I will be happy to write up for the  
wiki. The aim (hope?) is to develop a set of instructions for  
installing the minimals on a Mac that a Mac user without any real  
knowledge of unix (such as myself) can follow easily. (There are a  
number of people scattered around the world who help me in producing  
various publications; and since they too are not unix savvy, I need  
such instructions if we are to keep our installations functioning and  
up to date.)

Once the ConTeXt minimals are installed in the Applications folder and  
the user can run
\starttext
Hello world!
\stoptext
which is where the wiki (Installation>section 1.2) currently leaves  
off, there still remain a few tasks.

Specifically,

(a) getting this ConTeXt installation to recognize a personal texmf  
directory

(b) running the various binaries (e.g., texmfstart, ctxtools) in / 
Applications/ConTeXtMinimals from Terminal

(c) establishing synchronization between  PDF output and its ConTeXt  
source. Currently, it does not seem to work (with TeXShop at least)
	Note, in the latest TeXShop there is
Added support for SyncTeX. SyncTeX is new synchronization technology  
by Jerome Laurens which is included in TeX Live 2008 (but not earlier  
TeX distributions). The technology is built directly into pdfTeX and  
XeTeX. In modern TeX distributions, most typesetting actually calls  
pdfetex (even if using latex to output a dvi file), and thus the  
technology is available for such typesetting. To use the technology,  
add the flag --synctex=1

Any advice on how to do (a), (b), and (c) will be much appreciated.
