hi, Max
The two suggestions don't work. I get a message, "Could not start the
command..." each time.
$ /usr/local/ConTeXt_Standalone/context-linux-64/bin/context --nofile
results in " no such file or directory " which is, indeed, the case. NB:
I have just let the installer program do its thing, I didn't manipulate
the file structure before or after. Here is what the tree looks
like....partially expanded
