Hi Alan,
Using TeXShop on MacOS X you can create two files named « mkiv-stable.engine »
and « mkiv-testing.engine » and put them in the folder
Library/TeXShop/Engines
The first file « mkiv-stable.engine » contains the following:
#!/bin/bash
source [path-to-your-context-minimal-stable-folder]/tex/setuptex
context --autogenerate --synctex=1 "$1"
and the second file « mkiv-testing.engine » contains
#!/bin/bash
source [path-to-your-context-minimal-testing-folder]/tex/setuptex
context --autogenerate --synctex=1 "$1"
(personnaly I add also
rm -f *.tui *.log *.tuo *.xdv *.mp *.tmp *.top *-mpgraph.*
*-mpgraph-temp.dvi *.tuc
at the end of each of the files to remove auxiliary files, but you must be
careful with removing such files as *.mp…).
Then when you open anew TeXShop, you'll see in a small menu on top of each of
your TeX file where you can choose to typeset your file with either mkiv-stable
or mkiv-testing.
Or you can add at the top of your TeX file the following line:
%!TEX TS-program = mkiv-stable
or
%!TEX TS-program = mkiv-testing
In case you would like to use mkii you should replace the line
context --autogenerate --synctex=1 "$1"
with
texexec --autogenerate --synctex=1 "$1"
and create an engine file named « mkii.engine »
That's it.
I hope this would be useful to you.
Best regards: OK
