Has anyone else had problems with hyphenation? I have a brand new version of ConTeXt, and cannot get one of its main features, hyphenation, to work.
I looked at the documentation, specifically the file called hypenation patterns. According to this, I should be able to invoke a took called ctxtools, or at least a tool called texmfstart ctxtools. Neither tool exists with my distribution.
I do have a file called hyphen.tex. On Hans' suggestion, I copied this to ushyph1.tex and ushyph2.tex. That didn't help. I also changed my cont-usr.tex file, changing all lines that had ushyp* to hyphen. This also didn't work.
I am at a loss, and I consider hyphenation pretty important. How do I proceed from here?
Thanks
