This must sound stupid, but how do you update ConTeXt via the command line on Mac OSX? I'm using the MacTeX distribution and Mac OS 10.4.10. I tried (foolishly) to install the newest version of ConTeXt using i-installer, but that screwed up my current installation, so I was wondering if I could overwrite it with a new version. Step-by-step instructions would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance for your patience and help!
-Alex

Thomas,
Better yet that it's only one step! Many thanks.
ConTeXt appears to be functioning normally again, but now my only problem is with XeTeX... for some reason when I try to typeset files using it I get:
FatalError: Your format does not match the base files!
What went wrong here? Or should I ask this elsewhere?
Thanks again,
Alex

On the command-line:
sudo ctxtools --updatecontext
Is that steo-by-step enough?

Hans,
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that and then tested:
texexec --xtx sample_file
but I still got the error. Is there a way to overwrite/update the installation as I did with ConTeXt? If worse comes to worst, I'll look into reinstalling XeTeX...
Thanks again for the help!
Alex
