A postscript to greek issues: As I wrote, everything works fine now---with Mark II, which is what I still use. When I try "context mygreekfile.tex", without any font specification, the following characters are missing: lower case: c (end of word sigma), m (mu), and s (sigma) upper case: same If I specify font=Ibycus, it works fine If I specify font=Teubner, I get no greek, just roman characters (but the same tex file works when compiled with "texexec") If I specify font=GreekGentium, I get no output (Invalid glyph index (git 1714) ==> Fatal error etc. Again, this works with "texexec". I'm using recent minimals (Contextgarden) on Mac OS X Leopard and ubuntu. If it's got something to do with my not knowing how to deal with fonts in Mark IV (which is the case), just ignore this message. But if the reasons are deeper, it might be of interest to you.

Thanks. Looking forward to the new version.
New version has been uploaded; let me know if this one works
B. \usemodule[oldgreek] works with the default font or with Teubner (mark ii and mark iv). But not with Gentium, although the TrueType fonts are installed in texmf-local>fonts>truetype>greek>gentium:
!pdfTeX error: pdftex (file gentium): Font gentium at 720 not found ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
That's bizarre. What are the names of the truetype files that you have installed?
GenAI102.TTF GenAR102.TTF GenI102.TTF GenR102.TTF
I didn't install these, they were in your zip. I downloaded from sil but saw that they are the same. Maybe I chose the wrong name in my setup? I used \usemodule[oldgreek][font=Gentium] (also tried "gentium" and "Gentium102")
Yes, it's font=GreekGentium
I guess I need to include the documentation in the distribution again; most users just don't seem to be able to read my mind... :-)
