Starting context with miktex and winedt

Starting context with miktex and winedt

[Vittorio]

I'm using winedt and latex. Now, even though I've configured it to use context I
can't understand how to start compiling a context file. I tried with
the "pdftex" icon to no avail.

Could someone give me straightforward instructions to start using
context within winedt (& miktex)?

Someone else may have a more direct answer. For now just go to a command
line and type:

texexec foo.tex

Texexec is a Perl program that runs several programs in sequence, including
pdftex.

Right. Now, far from beeing a Win32 expert and having used only fpTeX
recently,
I seem to remember instructions on how to run ConTeXt via Winedt (which is
the
so far best Win32 editor I've seen around - even though I sometimes tend to
go
emacs) are posted at (either) http://www.winedt.(com|org) (?)
