Actually there has been something like that for a long time -) - when a new tex live comes out, i remove my old texmf tree and copy the texlive one to my disk (ok, for the next one i need to copy both texmf and texmf-dist to texmf on my disk) - this will then include a version of context - alongside i keep texmf-local and a few more (which has the beta context and such) if you do rsync -v www.pragma-pod.com:: you will get all the trees that you can download because i seperate things in trees, there is no danger in clashes with existing stuff; also, the setup scripts set all variables in a defensive way, so that there will be no clash with other distributions (that way i can also keep several project trees with older context versions available); the reason for using architectre paths is that it permits me to have out of sync binaries which means different pool files and formats) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
