Thanks Mohamed.
 
From the attached readme.txt :

1. From the installer, you MAY not want to use the default destination folder, 'Notepad++'.
texexec and company choke on directory names with characters like '+' in them. So you could
change it to, eg, 'Notepadpp'. So if you plan on linking the ConTeXt utilities with the notepad
installation directory somehow then you may want to change its name.
However, in the following I assume that the directory name remains 'Notepad++'
2. You may also want to check the installation option, "Don't use %APPDATA%".
Then all your configuration settings will be save in the installation directory. This is because, even
if you rename the installation directory, the name of the local user application directory will still
be 'Notepad++'.
However, in what follows I assume that all configuration files
are saved in \<username>\Application Data\Notepad++.

Holy bananas, that's confusing...
 
If "texexec and company choke on directory names with characters like '+' in them" why would one nevertheless "assume that the directory name remains 'Notepad++' " ?
 
And, "even if you rename the installation directory, the name of the local user application directory will still be 'Notepad++" why would one choose to "not to use the default destination folder, 'Notepad++'." .. and "change it to, eg, 'Notepadpp' " ?

Hi Idris,
 Thanks a lot.
 One question though...
 I installed Npp, downloaded the context support package for Npp and extracted the zip file.
 What/where are the setup instructions please ?
 Best,
Alan
 

Seems like Idris forgot to include the readme, incase it hasn't been attached check out the 1 November 2007 rev from http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Image:Npp_ConTeXt.zip your sure to find it there.

Put everything in ConTeXt.zip in the same folder you extracted mswincontext.zip (182 mb) then run NPP.bat. Make sure you adjust acrobat.lnk appriopriately as the path is hard-coded.

And what OS are you using?
