I just tried context for the first time on a Linux Fedora Core 4 PC
(after downloading and installing the latest cont-tmf.zip over the
original installation in my default /usr/share/texmf directory; I then
ran 'fmtutil --all'). My simple file, samplecontext.tex, reads:
\starttext
a test
\stoptext
I then tried:
% texexec samplecontext
and get the following errors ==>:
