I want to install the standalone Context. Which involves basically: mkdir -o /opt/context cd /opt/context wget "http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/first-setup.sh chmod 744 first-setup.sh ./first-setup.sh #this works up to this point only partially. - /opt/context/tex is not installed. This is a bad error. It causes - first-setup.sh to fail. And what is loaded will cause conflicts with cygwin which already exists, I believe. I can't see why rsync is use to load anothe versio of rsync in a diff location. #1. Why does 1st setup duplicate Cygwin dlls? I've hurd that having multiple cygwin*.dlls can cause problems. Besideds They already exist and so does luatex.exe for that matter. 'first-setup.sh' should know that it does a test for CYGWIN, but doesn't seem to do anything with it. #2. Also redundant and confusing is first-setup.sh forces the fetching of rsync by an already existing rsync. Is rsync already exists, why fetch another one and put it in a different location. I have texlive for unix on a cygwin platform, on top of an XP system. I want to make installing the standalone easy for cyginw and linux. # # Firstly, exactly what packages are needed for context? # I assume it's one or more of the mtx prefixed programs below. Please advise. - mtx-update.lua - mtxrun.exe - mtxrun.dll - mtxrun.lua - lua52.dll - luatex.dll Is this needed in addition to luatex.exe? - luatex.exe - kpathsea620.dll I understand that there are not a lot of people experimenting with the latest ConTeXt and even less for the Cygin platform. But, I would like to make it easer and clearer for Cygwin users who do want to experiement with the latest versions. I don't know if installing for a native linux version is easier or more straightforward or not.
