I created a .profile containing the line source ~/path/to/context/tex/setuptex ~/path/to/context/tex and put it in Macintosh HD/Users/alancbowen/Library But, sad to say, I get the same error when I try to typeset my “Hello World!” file using the™ minimals: /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex: line 75: cd: /Applications/ ConTeXtMinimals/context: No such file or directory The argument "" is not a valid TEXROOT path. There is no file "/texmf/tex/plain/base/plain.tex" provide a proper tex root (like '. setuptex /something/tex') Alan On Aug 23, 2008, at 21;04,37 , Charles P.
