Since installing the last ConTeXt update I am aware of the message from texexec: warning : use 'texmfstart texexec' instead Good, I call: "texmfstart texexec --version" instead of "texexec --version" Result: -bash: texmfstart: command not found Is my system suddenly incomplete? I am using Mac OS X 10.4.6, the most recent development I would think. What happened and how can I get to the level of system support ConTeXt seems to expect of me? Hans van der Meer

I've been away from ConTeXt for a while, so I don't have full knowledge of the recent changes. But it seems that many of the original Perl scripts are being replaced by Ruby scripts (of which texmfstart is one), which are in a different directory.
Probably you just need either to put the Ruby script directory ($TEXMF/scripts/context/ruby) on your PATH, or create links from the scripts you want to use to a directory in your current PATH. Maybe just link texmfstart--it seems to be a front end for all the Ruby scripts. Oh, and of course you have to have Ruby itself. I don't know where you would get an OS X package, but the Ruby language Web site is: http://www.ruby-lang.org/ -- Matt Gushee The Reluctant Geek: http://matt.gushee.net/rg/
