You can use any text editor for creating a source file for ConTeXt. A lot of editors provide generic TeX syntax highlighting (not based on a word list). But some have a bit more support for ConTeXt:
| Editor | features | Linux | Windows | MacOS X | Remarks |
| Emacs with AUCTeX | SU+? | y | y | y | The official AUCTeX distribution beginning with 11.50 has ConTeXt support. Berend de Boers ConTeXt mode for Emacs has been merged with the former ConTeXt support in AUCTeX by Patrick Gundlach. |
| Vim | SU2+? | y | y | y | No special support for context. Has syntax highlighting support for tex, but no specific syntax highlighting or indent support for context is available. Compiling is done via a Makefile and the :make command (which you can map to e.g. the F9 key). latex-suite currently does not support context :( |
| SciTE | CSU | y | y | y (X11) | ConTeXt support not before v1.6.x. ConTeXt support files come with the ConTeXt distribution in directory context/data/context.properties. See also the manual mcite.pdf SciTE on MacOSX 10.3 is Adam's quick-and-dirty port of SciTE to Panther/X11. |
| TeXshop | C?PSTU? | n | n | y (native) | Simple Cocoa IDE |
| gedit | SU2? | y | n | y (X11) | GNOME editor |
| klat | STU2? | y | n | y (X11) | KDE editor, based on kate |
| iTeXMac | C?SPTU+ | n | n | y (native) | Complex Cocoa IDE; doesn't like tabulated source! |
features:
- C = TeX/ConTeXt command completion
- P = PDF preview
- S = TeX/ConTeXt syntax highlighting
- T = ConTeXt typesetting
- U = Unicode (UTF-8) handling
- 2 = bidirectional edit (right-to-left)
- + = more…
- ? = previous feature probable but unsure
