My ConTeXtMinimals.engine file currently has the the following lines: #!/bin/bash source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/context/tex texexec "$1"
Remove "context" from the second argument: source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex instead of source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/context/tex
I am puzzled that chmod a+x ~/Library/TeXShop/ConTeXtMinimals.engine gets chmod: /Users/alancbowen/Library/TeXShop/ConTeXtMinimals.engine: No such file or directory
Because you have probably created a file ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/ConTeXtMinimals.engine and not a file ~/Library/TeXShop/ConTeXtMinimals.engine (tiny differences), so the second works.
while chmod 775 ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/ConTeXtMinimals.engine seems to work (at least there are no error messages). I am not quite sure what you mean here, but if I reduce ConTeXtMinimals.engine to source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex I get The argument "/Users/alancbowen/Desktop/TeXTesting/hello.tex" is not a valid TEXROOT path. There is no file "/Users/alancbowen/Desktop/TeXTesting/hello.tex/texmf/tex/plain/base/plain.tex" Setting "/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex" as TEXROOT instead. and then nothing.
Sorry - I thought that the issue has been fixed, but it hasn't. So you need source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex only source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex does not suffice. It does on Windows, but apparently there's no way to figure out location of the sourced script under linux (or at least I don't know any). Mojca
