Thank you very much, but in fact that script file "vscode-context.cmd"
really just contains the same command for installing extensions as I quoted
above - and so produces the same errors. Maybe I'll go back to trying
SciTe - I gave it a bit of a go, but wasn't successful. Of all the
information on the context-wiki, and the Pragma webpage - where would I go
to find the most up-to-date information about configuring an editor to work
with ConTeXt in Windows?
Thanks again,
Alasdair

I am installing the Windows version of ConTeXt, which comes with a VSCode extension, in
<ConTeXt>\tex\texmf-context\context\data\vscode\extensions
with instructions to run (from within the VSCode terminal):

The trouble is that the current ConTeXt installation (as of 65 minutes ago), doesn't seem to contain an extension in the format that VSCode understands. Running that command produces the errors:
Installing extensions... Extension 'context' not found. Make sure you use the full extension ID, including the publisher, e.g.: ms-dotnettools.csharp Failed Installing Extensions: context:
For what it's worth, I'm running VSCode 1.46.0.
How can I install the VSCode ConTeXt extension? Here i just run this (seems to work with latest update):
data/context/vscode-context.cmd
(I only occasionally check vscode and will look into it again when there is easy suffix dependent runner support. Of course I do generate the syntax files.)
