There are a few subtleties to manage in order to install ConTeXt on Mac OS X. The 'setuptex' config is not the same as a Linux one. But documentation does exist on the Net. Just for information, the 'context --make' command process is as follow : system | total runtime: 7.429 seconds

Downloading and install ConteXt Minimals simply in /Documents/context 2. In a Terminal : chmod +x first-setup.sh 3. Then : . first-setup.sh 4. After a while, downloading and setting stuff achieved, I type : cd tex, then: . setuptex. Here is the answer : "/Users/adeimantos/Documents/context/tex" is not a valid TEXROOT path. (There is no file "/Users/adeimantos/Documents/context/tex/texmf/tex/plain/base/plain.tex") provide a proper tex root (like '. setuptex /something/tex') What do you think about it ? Many thanks for your help.
