And me to! Thanks! Would some kind soul care to write up on the Wiki the best way to update the windows stand alone version? Please.

I did (a) and then (b) :) Here is the sequence I used (assuming C:\Programs\context) Start->Run->cmd cd C:\Programs\context cdemo.bat Then I closed the SciTe thing but I remained in the cmd. Then, in one line as Mojca says: C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex And texexec --make --all Then I closed the cmd, started by double click the cdemo.bat and voila !

Hi all,
I am experiencing some trouble using mswincontext.zip.
I have properly installed perl and ruby as the wiki says.
(http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_Installation#Stand-alone_ConTeXt_dist
ribution)
But when it comes to use cdemo.bat I got:
texmfstart newtexexec.rb --autopdf --pdf demo-tex.tex TeXExec | processing document 'demo-tex.tex' TeXExec | provide ctx file TeXExec | tex processing method: context TeXExec | TeX run 1 TeXExec | tex engine: pdfetex TeXExec | tex format: cont-en TeXExec | progname: context This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.3-2.2 (Web2c 7.5.5) \write18 enabled. I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'! TeXExec | runtime: 2.594 Exit code: 0
I thought this was a "click and go" package installation. I guess I have to do some format creation and all that, but I have nothing TeXy installed (just the mswincontext.zip). What do I need?
Sorry, this step is missing on Wiki (forgotten). Can you try the following: Open command line (Start->Run->cmd) and do either a) or b): a) "cd" to directory where cdemo.bat resides, execute it and exit (this will set the path for you) b) execute (this should be in one line): C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex (change "C:\Programs\context" to the proper folder) Then execute texexec --make --all The last one is the crucial step for making formats. Perhaps "making formats" should be present in menu in Scite (perhaps it already is, I can't check from here).
