If you are using the stable version of context, you can download the 1.09 release from the pgf sourceforge website. Read this thread, if you want to use this version http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1590486&forum_id=477363 This version does not work with the latest beta. However, Till Tantau has modified pgf so that it also works with the latest beta. Right now, this is only available through CVS http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=142562 For those who do not know about pgf, it is a graphical system similar to metapost. It runs from inside tex (I think using specials). It is not as powerful as metapost, but has better support for some tasks than metapost. See the user manual ftp://tug.ctan.org/pub/tex-archive/graphics/pgf/doc/generic/pgf/version-for-pdftex/en/pgfmanual.pdf for details. Aditya
