Re: [NTG-context] Problem with first setup of StandAlone ConTeXt

Hi Bruce, If you want to use your standalone version of ConTeXt, you should create a specific « .engine » file for this and then in TeXShop use that engine. Here is what I have when I typeset a file in TeXShop using mkiv ConTeXt: %%%%% begin file mkiv.engine #!/bin/bash export PATH=/Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH context --synctex=zipped --autogenerate "$1" --purgeall %%%%% end file mkiv.engine you should replace the line « export PATH=…. » by the path to your installation of ConTeXt. Best regards: OK PS: regarding the installation and updates of ConTeXt on Mac, Thomas Floren has written a nice Apple Script which you can find here: Name: Ctx_typeset Tool Web page: http://dflect.net/context-typeset-tool/ Author: Thomas Floeren

I have made good progress today, thanks to the help of this list. Thanks!

I can now run the example on the First Document web page, running ConTeXt from the command line. That works perfectly.

When I try to run the same file from within TeXShop, however, it tells me:

...

! Undefined control sequence. l.2 \startsection [title={Testing ConTeXt}] ?

I have created the file "ConTeXt Suite.engine" in directory ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines, per the instructions on the Mac Installation web page.

So I am not sure why TeXShop does not know about \startsection. I would be grateful for your advice on this.

Sincerely, Bruce
