I'm new to ConTeXt, coming from LaTeX. Are there any linux text editors that are
at all useful for creating context documents? In the archives of this list, I
read one or two discussions about making Kile more compatible, but the issue
seems to have been dropped.

There is a summary table in the wiki at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Text_Editors . Apart from the ones
listed there is also http://code.google.com/p/textadept/ , which I
believe has ConTeXt support.
For what it's worth, I use GNU emacs / AUCTeX, which works well for
me, though I don't really use many of the AUCTeX features.
Hope this helps,
Pont

You can use any editor, even with LaTeX syntax highlighting. I often
use VIM (but you need to be comfortable working with it) which needs
some settings (:set filetype=context), else you get LaTeX
highlighting.
Just take a look at the table on Wiki that Pontus pointed you to.

For what it's worth, I've tried Vim, Emacs, and SciTE, and eventually settled on TeXworks for maximum usefulness and friendliness. This might be different for you if you're already used to Vim or Emacs, which I wasn't. TeXworks is configured to use MkII, but there are instructions on the wiki to configure it for MkIV.

As I said, if you are not used to work with those, it is a steep learning curve.

The latest TeXworks should have this fixed, but I have no idea how to
build texworks on linux (for Windows and Mac one can download a
binary).

For Ubuntu, stable binaries are at
https://launchpad.net/~texworks/+archive/stable and development builds
at https://launchpad.net/~texworks/+archive/ppa .
http://www.tug.org/texworks/ has a link to openSUSE binaries too.
Haven't tried any of them myself, though.

Hi, I'm not a very experienced Linux-user, but I still managed to
compile the TeXworks-current-snapshot on my (Arch-)Linux system without
any problems. It was just the same as with any other application I
wanted to build from source. You need some development packages for your
Linux-distro (have a look at http://code.google.com/p/texworks/ ) and
then just something like "qmake" and "make".
HTH, Stefan

Hi,
Finally I just installed Miktex 2.1 and modified texexec.rme and set the appropriate paths and context is working! Thanks to all for your help. I have an additional question: what are context-aware editors that people are using under M$ Windows? Looking in the archive and the net, it seems that some people use emacs and there is a mention to Texwork. Is the latest an editor to use with context or something else? I couldn't find any documentation about its use.
Thanks in advance,
Luis
