I answer to Hans, Alan and me. In order to install Context on Windows 10, don't forget to restart the system when you have installed ConTeXt MK IV (Standalone) and set all the stuff (PATH, etc.).
I used to know about restarting the opsys on Windows, but I've forgotten it...
To Hans : total runtime for 'context --make' = 13,513 s.
Thanks

Dear list,
I am currently testing and experimenting such things as a brand new installation (Context Process 0.63 2016.05.22 15:18) on a Windows x64 computer. I have made a new installation of ConTeXt Standalone (with TeXWorks), downloading the *.zip file, etc.
1) Download the context-mswin.zip in C:\[...]\Documents; 2) mkdir 'context' => cd 'context' 3) Unzip it and launch context-setup.bat in the new C:\[...]Documents\context 4) Then, go to \context\tex and launch 'setuptex'; 5) Then again, cd \context\tex\texmf-win64\bin and do : 'context --generate', and 'context --make'.
As a result, the compilation after context --generate is 0,988 s. (and much more than 1 sec with 'context --make' command, which needs usually more than 30 sec. to compile) and after context --make I obtain a \dumpdump message with this cryptic sentence (in French) : 'luatex' is not recognized as an internal or external command, an executable program or a command file.
And when I try to do this : \ starttext \startsection[title={Testing ConTeXt}] This is my {\em first} ConTeXt document. \stopsection \stoptext
Here is the result : mtx-context | fatal error: no return code, message: luatex: No such file or directory
I have missed something ... but what is it ?
is there a texmf-win64 directory someplace? btw, 30 sec for making a format sounds a lot to me (normally it takes me around 4.5 sec for one format including generating the file database, a few year old laptop but with an ssd) ... or is your console slow (if you run a lot from the console it makes sense to use 'conemu' as consoles - on any os - take some runtime due to the way tex flushes) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl ----------------------------------------------------------------- ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
