Did you run this for TL ConTeXt or the minimals ConTeXt. From a terminal run

source /path-to-context/tex/setuptex
mtxrun --generate

Then try compiling a test file from the terminal.


this works.



Any suggestions? If all fails I'll try to clone an older installation.

What does `which context` return?


/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin/context

Great! Thus the wiki info to create 
 an executable  file ConTeXt-MKIV.engine containing

#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin:$PATH
export TEXMFCACHE=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-cache
context "$1"

in ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines
is slightly but catastrophically outdated. The file needs to read

#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH
export TEXMFCACHE=/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-cache
context "$1"


With that, TeXShop works with MKIV.

Thanks again !
