The '''`context`''' script has two the following main uses: (1)  * compiling ConTeXt MkIV documents, ; and (2) * recompiling the ConTeXt core format after you change one of the changing a source filesfile.  It is one of ConTeXt's four command-line scripts, together with `[[Mtxrun]]` for running general ('meta-TeX') helper scripts, `[[First-setup]]` for installation and updating, and `[[texexec]]` for compiling MkII documents.
== Compiling ==
context ''myfile.tex''
== Remaking the format Lists ==
When you change one of ConTeXt's core files – as Tables in the following sections may reference a temporary patch, or "list" parameter to try out something new, or for whatever reason – the change won't take effect immediately. Instead, you must first recompile ConTeXt, a process known as '(re)making the format'command-line option. In factsuch cases, ConTeXt has several formats: the English-language interface is value may be a separate format from the English or the Persian one.  To make all formats:  context -comma-make To make just the format for a separated list enclosed in straight single interface language:  context -or double-make cont-en # English context --make cont-uk # British English context --make cont-de # German context --make cont-fr # French context --make cont-nl # Dutch context --make cont-cs # Czech context --make cont-it # Italian context --make cont-ro # Romanian context --make cont-pe # Farsi (Persian)quotes. For example:
context --environment="setups,styles,classes" ''myfile.tex''
== Basic options ==
The following table lists common command-line argumentsoptions:
{| class="wikitable"
== Expert options ==
The following table lists addtional additional command-line argumentsoptions:
{| class="wikitable"
== Special options ==
The following table lists command-line arguments options that are not commonly used:
{| class="wikitable"
| prepend the (found) binarypath to runners
|}
 
== Remaking the format ==
 
When you change one of ConTeXt's core files – as a temporary patch, or to try out something new, or for whatever reason – the change won't take effect immediately. Instead, you must first recompile ConTeXt, a process known as '(re)making the format'. In fact, ConTeXt has several formats: the English-language interface is a separate format from the English or the Persian one.
 
To make all formats:
 
context --make
 
To make just the format for a single interface language:
 
context --make cont-en # English
context --make cont-uk # British English
context --make cont-de # German
context --make cont-fr # French
context --make cont-nl # Dutch
context --make cont-cs # Czech
context --make cont-it # Italian
context --make cont-ro # Romanian
context --make cont-pe # Farsi (Persian)
