you only need the big zip, the fnt one will go away some day and wrk is not 
needed

copy? move is better since otherwise the var path will be seen first 
(depends on the settings); i never use var;

Here i have the following setup (which permits me to swap in other trees 
for testing):

tex/texmf       -> a complete copy of the texmf dir of tex live (beware, 
some win's are incapable of copying thess 40K files)
tex/texmf-local -> the unzipped cont-tmf (beta)
tex/texmf-fonts -> the fonts i want to use as generated by texfont + 
commercial fonts
tex/texmf-mswin -> windows /bin and windows /web2c
tex/texmf-linux -> linux binaries and linux /web2c

then i have (in a minimal setup situation):

SET TEXPATH=c:\tex

and

SET TEXMFMAIN=%TEXPATH%/texmf
SET TEXMFLOCAL=%TEXPATH%/texmf-local
SET TEXMFFONTS=%TEXPATH%/texmf-fonts
SET TEXMFMSWIN=%TEXPATH%/texmf-mswin
SET TEXMFLINUX=%TEXPATH%/texmf-linux
SET VARTEXMF=%TEXPATH%/texmf-var
SET HOMETEXMF=

SET TEXMFCNF=%TEXPATH%/texmf{-local,}/web2c

SET TEXMF={$TEXMFMSWIN,$TEXMFFONTS,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFMAIN}

plus

SET TEXFORMATS=%TEXMFMSWIN%/web2c

and to satisfy tex binaries:

SET PATH=%TEXMFLOCAL%\CONTEXT\PERLTK;%TEXMFMSWIN%\BIN;%PATH%

as well as perl:

SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\PERL\BIN

[this goes into 4start.bat since i use 4tex]
