Third party modules in LMTX

Third party modules in LMTX

[jdh]

I would like to use Wolfgang's t-letter module, but need some help.

I found the following instructions:

"The ConTeXt suite only comes with Taco's t-bib module. If you want to install a new module, say Wolfgang's t-letter module, you can use

 first-setup.sh --modules="t-letter"


BUT, the LMTX standalone does not have any "first-setup.sh"  shell script.

Is there another way to install the "t-letter" module for use with LMTX?


Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
  Darel

Attention: 

I tried to install TiKZ module in my macOS Catalina with this shell script and several folders in my system are deleted.  

My Context Folder is located at /Applications folder. 

Is there a safe way to install modules for LMTX.


Thanks.

tex/texmf-fonts

   additional fonts, like those you buy or download, for
   instance under /fonts/data then)

tex/texmf-project

   additional styles, these can go to tex/context/someproject

tex/texmf-local
tex/texmf-modules

   for whatever else

(you need to run mtxrun --generate after adding files)
