Thanks for your responses. I should have specified that I am using
Linux (Ubuntu). I don't have any previous SciTE configuration files in
my home directory.

I used the instructions from contextgarden and
scite-context-readme.pdf, including creating a launch script that sets
the PATH to include my context standalone binary. What I don't
understand now is that SciTE finds the correct standalone binary but
uses texexec to run mkii instead of mkiv as is supposed to be the
defuault:

ConTeXt  ver: 2011.12.31 15:44 MKII

and calls an old pdftex from a separate TexLive installation:

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.11 (TeX Live 2010)

Any suggestions?
Thanks.
