Thomas—
At this point I am not sure how to diagnose the problem(s) or to
solve it (them).
But, for the record, when I open Terminal and type
cd /Library
sudo ln -s /usr/local/teTeX ./teTeX
the teTeX alias is regenerated. Yet, when I try to open teTeX by
double clicking the alias icon, I get
The alias “teTeX” could not be opened because the original item
could not be found.
Is the original still somewhere on my backup disk (a clone of my
setup back home) or has it been destroyed?
And you are right, I still cannot get past the
tcsh: texexec: Command not found
error when I try to process a file.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I am hoping to get some
writing done while I am away, and I am committed to using ConTeXt in
the various projects.
Best, Alan

Alan,
re-establishing the link is not difficult: in the Terminal, type
cd /Library
sudo ln -s /usr/local/teTeX ./teTeX
But you're aware that the broken link has nothing to do with your
problem, right?
Best

In trying to deal with this, I discovered that the alias of teTeX
in my Library folder is broken. I guess the question is “How do I
re-establish the link?”, given that the original seems to be
invisible. Or is there something else I must do (too)?
I apologize for the newbie question—my dream is to have some time
to learn about unix and the teTeX installation. ’Til now I have
relied on Gerben’s i-installer to do most of the thinking for me.
Indeed, I would just re-install everything, were it not for the
fact that I am currently limited to access by 56K modem.
