I've successfully installed ConTeXt minimals on an OS/X 10.6.x system and it seems to be running okay. I'd like to run some metapost examples from the command line and "mpost" also seems to be running well. I've seen references to a "mptopdf" script and there is a Perl script of that name but it looks like it needs to be installed somewhere. Is there some post-setup procedure I need to follow to access "mptopdf" or another one I've seen references to "fmtutil"?
