New structure is a standard now. Furthermore, you don't need setuptex.bat to run Context after this installation.

My installer doesn't work with MikTeX. Theoretically it is possible, but in practice, solution will be fuzzy and unreliable. I don't want to bother with it, considering that you can always use Context in an old way, without installing it. This is the best (and only) way to use it in parallel with MikTex and TexLive. > *) I missed the discussion on the mailing list, but what does your > installer do exactly ? Hmm... Selects folder, downloads (or updates) distribution files, sets environment vars, and ... exits. > Thanks for your help > Kind regards > Wim -- Best regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
