it depends on what you do with context ... texworks is rather tuned to
latex (and as i don't use it i keep no track of the configurations
needed for convenient context use), is hard to use with non tex files
(and i like to use - in my case scite - for all my editing, not only
tex, doesn't have the advanced hybrid lexer that we ship for scite, etc
if scite for osx would come with the lpeg lexer plugin i would even be
willing to use the mac every now and then -)
