in order to typeset the file example.tex, you'll see in the log file a warning like
warning: use 'texmfstart texexec' instead
Since ConTeXt is developing very fast, it is likely that one day or another the "old" script would become orphan. (Recall that according to some theoretician physicists the velocity of ConTeXt development is a counter-example to the fact that the velocity of light is an upper limit for all velocities...). Since I (i.e. Otared K.) and many other Mac users had difficulties to do this (that is make texmfstart work), thanks to help and insights from Mojca M. and Taco H. I explain below how I did configure texmfstart on my machine. To be more precise, I should say that I have teTeX and ConTeXt installed (and updated quite often...) with [http://ii2.sourceforge.net Gerben Wierda's i-Installer]. Actually in what follows nothing is specific to Mac OS X: it is very likely that on any Unix like system texmfstart can be configured in the same way. If you use [http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/texshop.html TeXshop], then recent versions beginning with 2.10beta are set up in such a way that texmfstart is used. Therefore the following configuration procedures are only of interest for those who use the command line interface (CLI), or when one is willing to create XeConTeXt, that is a format using [http://scripts.sil.org/xetex XeTeX] and ConTeXt with a command like
sudo texmfstart texexec --make --xtx en
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/scripts/context/ruby/texmfstart.rb
the second one is old, while the first one is recent and has been installed by [http://ii2.sourceforge.net GerbenWierda's i-Installer]. I assumed (remember we are using ConTeXt...) that the newer one is the right one...
