ConTeXt-updater i-Package updated

ConTeXt-updater i-Package updated

[Gerben Wierda]

I have reinstated the automatic update of the TeX ConTeXt-updater 
i-Package, which will again automatically be updated when Hans Hagen 
updates his ConTeXt (stable or beta or both). The package offers choice 
between ConTeXt and ConTeXt beta (when available) on install.

G

PS. For NTG-ConTeXt: i-Packages are a software install mechanism for 
Mac OS X only. For most of you, this will be a very cryptic message I 
guess. I'll be posting this only once to NTG-ConTeXt. People interested 
in using i-Installer to keep their TeX up to date on Mac OS X may get 
their info from the Mac OS X TeX mailing list.

Let's count the guys that use OSX with ConTeXt (and possibly 
i-Packages):

I primarily use ConTeXt with linux, but I also have the distribution on
a Mac OS X, and I used Gerben's package, which installed very
nicely--thanks!

indeed, since as far as i could see, there were multiple no's 4, so that gives 
you a higher number

I guess that makes me lucky 7.

Wouldn't it be better to do this as a survey question on the ConTeXt 
wiki?

The ConTeXt-updater i-Package installs in the local tree as well, not
overwriting the base version in the main teTeX texmf tree. That way you
can go back to the version in the main tree by uninstalling the ConTeXt
updater.

During a TeX i-Package configure phase, the i-Package will detect a
ConTeXt in the local tree and report both versions and offer the
possibility to deinstall the one in the local tree as well.
