I'm using MkIV installed from minimals, and have set up a typescript
(type-lemonde.tex) for a font I'm using. It works fine when I copy
type-lemonde.tex into the working directory, but I'd like to have
it in one central location rather than having to copy it around to
multiple project directories. I see:
1. Copy the typescript files into either
$TEXMF/tex/texmf-fonts/tex/context/user
$TEXMF/tex/texmf-project/tex/context/user
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts_in_LuaTeX
But `echo $TEXMF` comes up blank. What should TEXMF be set to?
Is $TEXMF the same as the "ConTeXt path" mentioned here:
A typescript must live in your project folder or in another folder
in your ConTeXt path (e.g., (texmf)/tex/context/user)
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TypeScripts
I've tried several things including:
~/context/tex/texmf-fonts/tex/context/user/type-lemonde.tex
...but can't seem to get anything to work.
Thanks for any help,
John

Just to be sure: did you run "context --generate" after creating that
file somewhere?

I did run that command after placing the file in the above location,
but I'm thinking since TEXMF is not set, ConTeXt doesn't know how to
find the typescript.

It's not set here either. Is ~/context your ConTeXt installation
directory? If not then it might be worth trying a standard directory
like ~/texmf instead (or ~/texmf/tex/context/base/ in your case). I
always put my modifications into ~/texmf, run context --generate and it
works.

Yes, ~/context is my ConTeXt installation directory. I placed the
typescript in ~/texmf like so:
~/texmf/type-lemonde.tex
then ran `context --generate` ... but still no luck.
