Hi Mojca,

I did plant in the Garden the procedure for texmfstart:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mac_Installation#Configuration_of_texmfstart

However I didn't know how to add nice (and useful) links to some 
words, when necessary.

I didn't get how to do this... Indeed I think (but probably I am 
wrong...) even if one creates such a file and make it executable, 
then, for scurity reasons, when Mac users copy it to their directory 
the resulting file loses its executable bit. Since I am very limited 
in the intrecacies of these security aspects if I understand what you 
intend I'll add the file you suggest.
On the other hand are you sure one can replace "texexec" with a new 
command created with the file you suggest? Is it not "dangerous"?

Thanks again for your help.
Best regards: OK

You could also only set an alias in your .profile (or .bashrc) like  
this:

alias texmfstart='ruby /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/scripts/ 
context/ruby/texmfstart.rb'

This way you don't need to touch any files or directories.
