It might be that MacTeX has fixed its own bugs recently, but it is still based on TeXLive and that one has been released in January 2007 (with basically no updates since then). You can use the old ConTeXt & XeTeX as well, but you will have problems later (nobody says that you won't have problems anyway :). An alternative in to use the standalone ConTeXt. For example by downloading and running http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/osx-intel/first-setup.sh and then putting something like . context/tex/setuptex context/tex to .bash_profile (or executing it each time when you need it) or to the place where TextMate can "find it" (~/context/ is where I have saved the "first-setup.sh") The advantage of the standalone ConTeXt is that you can also use LuaTeX (Hans's and Taco's baby, so you have higher chances that it will work properly in ConTeXt - XeTeX is often a bit broken, but neither is really stable yet :). > Thanks, I tried this.

They are repeated multiple times in Textmate, just once when I > try to issue the command "mktextfm Eco101Roman" from the command line. mxtextfm is the wrong command to use (that is an ancient TeX warning), intended for something else.
