Re: GNU Emacs/ AucTeX configuration for ConTeXt

["Thomas A. Schmitz" <thomas.schmitz@uni-bonn.de>]

Which auctex version are you using? The latest ones have context mode  
built in. All you need to do is
M-x context-mode
Syntax highlighting, environment and font commands, compiling, most  
things work. I don't know about metapost.
