Can you please explain, why a comment can toggle an error? Filtering comments should be very low level (plain TeX or ConTeXt Core, after some catcode redef???). Wolfgang

Hans, Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that and then tested: texexec --xtx sample_file but I still got the error. Is there a way to overwrite/update the installation as I did with ConTeXt? If worse comes to worst, I'll look into reinstalling XeTeX... Thanks again for the help!

Thomas, Better yet that it's only one step! Many thanks. ConTeXt appears to be functioning normally again, but now my only problem is with XeTeX... for some reason when I try to typeset files using it I get: FatalError: Your format does not match the base files! What went wrong here? Or should I ask this elsewhere? Thanks again, Alex ----- Original Message ---- From: Thomas A.

Fixing/Updating ConTeXt
by Alex K 01 Aug '07

This must sound stupid, but how do you update ConTeXt via the command line on Mac OSX? I'm using the MacTeX distribution and Mac OS 10.4.10. I tried (foolishly) to install the newest version of ConTeXt using i-installer, but that screwed up my current installation, so I was wondering if I could overwrite it with a new version. Step-by-step instructions would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance for your patience and help! -Alex ____________________________________________________________________________________ Take the Internet to Go: Yahoo!Go puts the Internet in your pocket: mail, news, photos & more. http://mobile.yahoo.com/go?refer=1GNXIC
