Installation context minimals

Installation context minimals

[Curiouslearn]

Hello,

Can someone please tell me if the instructions for
installation/updating of minimals given on

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals#Unix-like_platforms_.28Linux.2FMacOS_X.2FFreeBSD.2FSolaris.29

are still valid.

I went to my /Applications/ContextMinimals folder (on Mac OSX) and typed:

sh first-setup.sh --extras=all

Then I entered,

mtxrun --selfupdate

However, I got the following:


    MTXrun | resolvers: to be replaced old script
/Applications/ConTeXtMinimalsStable/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin/mtxrun
    MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua'
    MTXrun | resolvers: unable to locate new script

Seems like there was a problem here. Anyway, I went ahead and did

luatools --selfupdate

and I got:

    MTXrun | unknown script 'base.lua' or 'mtx-base.lua'

and, then I did

context --make

which gave me,

    MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

Can someone please explain the recipe for installation. What I should do?

Also, I have read long back in the forum that some people have two
installations at the same time and you can switch between these. How
is this done? Is there any information about this on the Wiki.

Thanks.

Re: Installation context minimals

I just want to update my post to include the following information:

I had forgotten to run the following step during the installation:

    source /Applications/ContextMinimals/tex/setuptex

I did that and ran the three commands

   mtxrun --selfupdate
   luatools --generate
   context --make


This time a lot of things happened for the the latter two commands.

I should mention that I also added the following line to my .bash_profile file

. /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex

However, when I try to typeset the file, I get the following error:

MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

Any ideas. Please help!

Okay....I think the following was missing. In addition to the three
commands I needed

mtxrun --generate

I have update the Wiki by adding this command to making formats. Let
me know if this is incorrect.
