Subject: Linux upgrade
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2006 19:18:07 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200606221918.07473.john@wexfordpress.com> (raw)
I have been working with two versions of TeX, neither one of
which is new enough to accomodate all the latest Context bells and
whistles. I tried downloading context.zip and installing it on my
standard /usr/share/texmf tree. No joy. I get messages telling me to use the
texmfstart command instead. This is as I recall a Windows thingie.
So next I tried linux binaries only. Still no joy.
Let me start all over. Assuming a working TeX installation
(either tetex or texlive 2005) what incantation must I perform to
upgrade to the latest stable Context and what specific zip file
should I use?
It appears that Context is set up primarily for Windows but I use
Slackware Linux 10.2.
