Thanks. > What files exactly are downloaded? just mswincontext.zip? Downloaded are all files from http://minimals.contextgarden.net/minimals/mswin They are current beta, I think. > What are the installation options? There is only one option so far -- to do rsync or not to do it. This option must be On for the first time, since you have no files yet; it also be used to update Context by running the installer again. It may be Off if you just want to update environment vars. > It would be a good idea to add pdftex and xetex formats options as well. The installer doesn't make format files itself. (It might be good idea, but I stuck with difficulties here). After setup, the installer prompts the user to build format files manually. User is free to use any engine; I only tested it for Luatex, as the most progressive one. And a thing I must notice -- sorry, it cannot be installed along with Miktex or TeXLive, because environment vars will clash. It's inevitable; if you want to use them in parallel, use Context in old way. This installer is for clean machines only. But there is good news also. Uninstall is possible :) > Thanks for the wonderful contribution Thanks again. -- 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
