OK, i re-installed a fresh copy of fpTex with the Context option. It will *not* install texexec at first. only after removing and re-installing the context option it will. then i added/unzipped all the cont-*.zip files into the texmf folder. i also copied the texexec.pl files into the place where the original files were.
when i do a texexec --make at pone point it will complain.
