What does it mean, that TEXPOOL &al. aren't needed for luatex/xetex? Does MKII need them? > > TEXMF={$TEXMFOS,$TEXMFPROJECT,$TEXMFFONTS,$TEXMFLOCAL,$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN} > > yes > > > TEXMFDBS=$TEXMF > > dependes on kpse version i think I've been using %var% notation for parts that Windows expands when the variable is defined, but I see UNIX-style $var here and there. Should these be expanded at define-time also, or are these for the programs that use them to understand? I've got Perl, Python, and Ruby installed, & I'm using mswincontext and upgrades thereto as the only TeX distribution on the machine; I'd like it to work as smoothly as MiKTeX does where it's installed -- i.e., replace setuptex with a machine-global set-up. And I'm willing to jump through some hoops to find the "right way" so installation can be made easier for others --Joel ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
