Hmm. David, the instalation of ConTeXt in MikTeX environment is very simple
(esspecially, if you make it the n-th time :-)). All what you should make is:
: unzip the files to texmf tree;
: rename texexec.rme to texexec.ini and uncomment the lines for MikTeX
: add /perl/bin and /context/perltk to system PATH variable
: make little changes in cont-usr.tex
: run:
> texexec --make --language=cz --bodyfont=csr en
or, if tou haven't runperl.exe:
perl texexec.pl --make... etc.

Tja..., :-))
Greetings,
Grzesiek
PS. I known, that a little description of installation in MikTeX (in
minstall.pdf) should be done (perhaps) by me, but my poor english give me no
chance for that.
BTW, Hans - what is with manual translation? Do you have some new infos for me?

I'm patient.

Do you mean the polish beginners manual? Did you discuss this with the gust
people already? I was under the impression (eurotex) that it would be a
combined effort. Just ask around on the gust list and then we can work out
a method.

Hans et all,
The installation notes, "How to Install Context," now mention adding a
reference to context.map to the pdftex.cfg file that resides somewhere on
your system. Here's mine (Latest version of Miktex):
% Thomas Esser, 1998, 1999, public domain.
output_format 1
compress_level
9
decimal_digits 3
page_width 210mm
page_height 297mm
horigin 1in
vorigin
1in
% pdftex.map is set up by texmf/dvips/config/updmap
map pdftex.map
map
+test.map
How do I add the reference to context.map, like this:
map context.map
I had huge difficulties initializing changes in the texexec.rme to
texexec.ini file this time around. Finally, after about an hour, changing
% == paths ==
%
% TeXFormatPath texmf/... fmt files
%
ConTeXtPath texmf/tex/context/base sources
% SetupPath
texmf/tex/base/user cont-sys/usr file
% TeXScriptsPath
texmf/context/perltk scripts
to
% == paths ==
%
set TeXFormatPath to f:/localtexmf/miktex/fmt
set
ConTeXtPath to f:/texmf/tex/context/base
set SetupPath to
f:/texmf/tex/base/user
set TeXScriptsPath to f:/texmf/context/perltk
worked when I entered texexec --verbose at the DOS prompt. I recommend some
changes here or some comments offering more instructions.
Even then, texexec --make had a problem finding my cont-usr.tex file, so I
changed to
set SetupPath to f:/texmf/tex/context/config
and I could finally make a format.

Hm. Are you talking about texexex 1.7?
The main difference between tetex/fptex and miktex is that for tetex cs kpsewhich is used to resolve some names. In miktex, you need to set the paths yourself, although I think the install script should be able to provide you the data. Maybe you should discuss this with the miktex people.
Concerning cont-usr.tex, there is a possibility to run texexec like this:
texexec --make --language=cz --bodyfont=csr en
which gives you an english format defaulting to czech using czech computer modern. This only works when one is in the same path as cont-usr.tex, since this file will temporary be replaced by a texexec generated one. This is only of importance to czech, polish, croatian etc users, although it is valid to say:
texexec --make --language=nl en
if you want dutch patterns as a default.
