Re: [NTG-context] macOS

I already had done all of that including command line versions like ‘sudo mdutil -E’ It turns out macOS apparently excludes /usr (amongst other things) and I haven’t found a way to configure that. So, when ConTeXt is installed in /usr/local (which is pretty typical), SpotLight doesn’t find the manuals, whereas when it has been installed in — say — /Applications, it will find them. G

Spotlight on macOS can help me to find the right documentation.

When I copy the contents of the folder (the manuals for ConTeXt) from its original location /usr/local/context-osx-64/tex/texmf-context/doc/context/documents/general/manuals to ~/Downloads/TestFolder they are indexed and found by Spotlight.

But not in their original location. Why? And how do I fix this, because I want the manuals and such in /usr/local to be found.

Any Mac user who knows?
