Thomas,
Better yet that it's only one step! Many thanks.
ConTeXt appears to be functioning normally again, but now my only problem is with XeTeX... for some reason when I try to typeset files using it I get:
FatalError: Your format does not match the base files!
What went wrong here? Or should I ask this elsewhere?
Thanks again,
Alex

This must sound stupid, but how do you update ConTeXt via the command line on Mac OSX? I'm using the MacTeX distribution and Mac OS 10.4.10. I tried (foolishly) to install the newest version of ConTeXt using i-installer, but that screwed up my current installation, so I was wondering if I could overwrite it with a new version. Step-by-step instructions would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance for your patience and help!

On the command-line: sudo ctxtools --updatecontext Is that steo-by-step enough?
