This is the second trap I fell into by following the instructions in the
manuals: all that rsync stuff jazzed up my TeXLive 2010 installation and
I had to reinstall. This bad advice is found on the "Running Mark IV"
page on the wiki. Of course, I wanted to run MkIV and ended up spending
another hour reinstalling TeXLive to get it back.
On my desktop machine I have both TeXLive (for Cygwin) and ConTeXt
minimals (for Windows) installed, my notebook has only TeXLive. I am no
longer tempted to update any of these, even if I prefer to stay current.
As a newbie, I wanted to try out the Concrete Roman font ... but
abandoned that quest when it looked like I was going to have to tinker
with the internals again. I am now staying firmly on the "end user"
side of the ConTeXt fence.
Tom.
