I have tried doing what you suggest, but I must be doing something wrong. I downloaded the alpha cont-tmf.zip. Then I unzipped it into an empty ~/texmf. Then I ran texhash and saw that it updated ~/texmf/ls-R. > ctxtools --make --all (ruby script) To invoke ctxtools, I ran ruby ~/texmf/scripts/context/ruby/ctxtools.rb --make --all Nothing happened except the following output: CtxTools | version 1.2.2 - 2004/2005 - PRAGMA ADE/POD CtxTools | --bbeditinterface generate bbedit syntax files [--pipe] CtxTools | --contextversion report context version CtxTools | --documentation generate documentation file [--type=3D] [filename]CtxTools | --jeditinterface generate jedit syntax files [--pipe] CtxTools | --patternfiles generate pattern files [languagecode|all] CtxTools | --purgefiles remove temporary files [--all] [basename] CtxTools | --rawinterface generate raw syntax files [--pipe] CtxTools | --sciteinterface generate scite syntax files [--pipe] CtxTools | --touchcontextfile update context version CtxTools | --translateinterface generate interface files (xml) [nl de ..] Inovking texexec on my tex file in either of the following incantations results in an error: perl ~/texmf/scripts/context/perl/texexec.pl --pdf myfile.tex /usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux/texexec --pdf myfile.tex This is a summary of all `failed' messages and warnings: `pdfetex -ini -jobname=3Dcont-en -progname=3Dcontext -8bit *cont-en.ini' f= ailed warning: kpathsea: mktexpk output `! I can't read pdfetex.pool; bad path?' instead of a filename. Sorry, I can't find the format `cont-en.fmt'; will try `context.fmt'. kpathsea: Running mktexfmt context.fmt fmtutil: no info for format `context'. I can't find the format file `context.fmt'! So perhaps there are some other steps I am missing? Do I need to move updated scripts into /usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux ? Skip
