I am wiling to do so, but i see that Texlive hasn't changed since 2003, and
this is already the version i have installed 2 months ago.
Is there a fresher version and does anyone knows the date where Texlive
structure changed.
Many thanks.
Dirar.

Now is the time for all...
... non Context user to be able to use ConTeXt without
becomming TeX expert
Following the remark from Dirar about finding the last texlive
distrib, I think the Context system deserves the right of
being a full independant distribution which can be used independently
from the other standard xTeX distributions (e.g. TeTeX, Texlive, ..)
The mytex system proposed by context is a first step in that direction,
but it require a setup that strongly perturbate a concurent use of
LaTeX.
So, I propose that besides the standard upgrade cont-tmf.zip for
context,
Pragma propose à **independant** "context" distribution which :
1 - ***doesn't use*** the standard kpath environment variables
2 - anticipate the addition for new architecture
(eg. "linux" isn't an architecture name, use "powerpc-linux"
instead)
What do need ConTeXt for itself ?
1 - an pdfetex (or pdfXXXtex)
2 - some fontes
3 - perl, ruby, tcl, ...
4 - Metapost
5 - the context "TeX macro files"
As ConTeXt does improve much frequently than any standard LaTeX
distribution, I suggest that it is easier to adapt the ConTeXt system
to tetex from time to time (e.g. one time in a year) and becomme free
to change the ConTeXt arborescence following the feeling from Hans.
So that it will always be possible for a LaTeX user to download
a full independant ConTeXt distribution, just source one of the
provided setup.sh or setup.csh files, and run either the standard
texlive old distribution, or its new dowloaded ConTeXt distribution
without conflict.
The objective is to had a line such
source /xxx/context/setup.sh
in my bashrc without worying if I (or other xTeX user) have to do
either LaTeX or ConTeXt writing.

I second this question.
I look for the texlive2004 too, but didn't found it.

This is the main item, because this requirement implies using non-standard
executables. I agree with you that such a distribution would be a great
thing to have, but unless some people are actually willing to invest (a
fairly large amount of time) in it, it is simply not going to happen.
I have started a project last spring, whose goal is to deliver almost
precisely a "standalone, fast and idiot-proof distribution of ConTeXt", but
it has been a one person affair so far, and I do not have unlimited time to
spend on it. Anyway, have a look at
http://www.metatex.org

Actually there has been something like that for a long time -)
- when a new tex live comes out, i remove my old texmf tree and copy the texlive
one to my disk (ok, for the next one i need to copy both texmf and texmf-dist to
texmf on my disk)
- this will then include a version of context
- alongside i keep texmf-local and a few more (which has the beta context and such)
if you do
rsync -v www.pragma-pod.com::
you will get all the trees that you can download
because i seperate things in trees, there is no danger in clashes with existing
stuff; also, the setup scripts set all variables in a defensive way, so that
there will be no clash with other distributions (that way i can also keep
several project trees with older context versions available); the reason for
using architectre paths is that it permits me to have out of sync binaries which
means different pool files and formats)

A new standard tex dist is always relatively easy to install
(tetex or texlive)...

... And there is a (old) version of context include.
But it is that way I'm using context today.
So far so good.
And I can personnalised my LaTeX distribution by using the
HOMETEXMF environment variable.
> - alongside i keep texmf-local and a few more (which has the beta
> context and such)
My problem (as a NOT guru xyzTeX administrator !) is precisely that
I have trouble in using a separate cont-tmf distribution in my own
tex tree (trouble with creating the formats).
i suppose I have to more investigate in this direction.
What I'm looking for, is a mean to use:
- my one cont-tmf uptodate tree, possibly with some "near standard"
contrib addition (read "soon to be include in the standard Context
distrib" e.g. t-bib, t-nath ;-)
- some personnal environnement variables (HOMETEXMF, or better:
CONTEXT_HOME)
togother with any ***full standard LaTeX distribution*** wich I haven't
installed myself on a workstation I don't administre myself (read "in
hostile
environment" :-). I only master my home directory.
If I have to modify the texlive distribution (or a configuration
file from). Then it is no more a standard texlive distrib.
So the two possibilities I envisage are:
1 - managing a separate context tree package in an hostile environment
(the prefered solution if robust)
2 - manage a separate full context system.
It's probable the easier way to go. And for less than 100 Mbytes
it is no much more heavy than the simple con-tmf plus the format.
Also, if I can do a multiplatform (powerpc-darwin, x86-linux, ...)
non intrusive (with concurrent LaTeX distribution),
I'll can make it installed everywere (around me).
I have yet to solve some confict in my environnement (because
for sample the context-live setup **cleer** all environment variable
which concerne LaTeX, kpath, and other HOMETEXMF variable.
This second item was the main objective of this thread "Now is the
time..".
I think the work is almost done with the minimal context-live
distribution. It need just some setup adjust.

This doen't work at work because of a firewall.
I tried to use the option "-e ssh" which could work
if you had a secure shell demond enabled.
But it doesn't seem to!
The a try this night at home (with free.fr)
rsync -av www.pragma-pod.com::all pragma-context-all
And it worked! (590 Moctets)
So this week-end, I have to retry to solve the setup problems.

It a defensive way for ConTeXt user, not for LaTeX user.

\startLaughingMode
I agree that multi-architecture is needed, but the problem with
P.C users is that there is only two architecture in the world (;-)
1 - Windows
2 - the others
The most advanced pc users know also about "linux" and even "linux-64"
but an architecture is a combination between some hard (sparc, powerpc,
x86, 64-x86) and some "operating system" (linux, bsd, sunos, cygwin,
darwin, )
This principle is very flexible, and support even "inoperating system'
(dos, dos++, windose95, windose95.2, macosClone, ...)
\stopLaughingMode
The best way to get an idea on how to deal which multi-architecture
is to look at the config.guess and config.sub from gnu configure
system (which seems used by the texlive distribution).
Context need not support all the architecture combination, but should
support the standard architecture system.
Here are some examples of a binary tree:
alpha-linux
i386-linux
i386-openbsd -> i386-openbsd3.3
i386-openbsd3.3
powerpc-aix -> powerpc-aix4.3.3.0
powerpc-aix4.3.3.0
powerpc-darwin -> powerpc-darwin6.6
powerpc-darwin6.6
sparc-solaris -> sparc-solaris2.7
sparc-solaris2.7
sparc64-linux
win32
win32-static
I have a script I use for shoosing between a few architecture.
I can be be update for adapting to the supported ConTeXt binaries
arctitecture.
http://www.ensta.fr/~diam/pub/guessarch/
All my configure scripts use set privaded string
e.g.
# CONTEXT_HOME can be guessed from this script if not provided
# by the user.
CONTEXT_ARCH=`context-guessarch`
PATH="$CONTEXT_HOME/bin/$CONTEXT_ARCH/:$PATH"

Hum, I thought it would be possible to just change the name of the
environment variable used be the kpsea system.
But if these names are hard coded, perhaps it is still possible to patch
the source for all the external tools used by context and relying
on kpathsea.
I suppose that Hans could do a "contextize" perl script which automatise
this transformation from the standard tools archives.

Woaow!
This is very ambitious ! You are redoing the full tex envirenment!
If you realy want to do that, you should:
- first create a contributing information system (as the wiki context
:-)
- create an open source project on sourceforge or something like that,
(this mean mailing lists, cvs access, ...)
- and then call for a partitipation on comp.text.tex group.
I sure there is several TeX guru interested.
This project is much more that what I asked for!
Cordialement,
Maurice

future versions of context will hide the whole map file system behind runtime
generated \pdfmapline entries; i wait with that till pdftex > 1.20 is more
widespread and till dvipdfmx has this feature too

I was doing exactly what you did with sabon, but i was using
\pdfmapfile{+texnansi-rubicon-opulent.map} which does not work now (with
mytex) !
I have changed that to \loadmapfile[texnansi-rubicon-opulent.map] and this
works fine.
Great, i now have my system setup and running and my project compiles too.
Thanks a lot Hans for your time.

hm, i'm just now installing sabon, so here is what i did:
mkdir <drive>:\fonts\monotype\sabon
copy the files to there
goto <drive>:\fonts
texfont --en=texnansi --ve=monotype --co=sabon --re
texfont --en=texnansi --ve=monotype --co=sabon --so=monotype/sabon --ma --in
that installs the fonts and generates a file
texnansi-monotype-sabon.pdf
which you can process;
next make a typescript, say in typeface.tex (which you need to load in your doc
then with \usetypescriptfile[typeface])
\starttypescript [map] [sabon] [ec,8r,texnansi]
\loadmapfile[\typescriptthree-monotype-sabon.map]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [serif] [sabon] [name]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [SabonMT]
\definefontsynonym [SerifCaps] [SabonMT-RegularSC]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [SabonMT-Italic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifSlanted] [SabonMT-Italic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [SabonMT-SemiBold]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [SabonMT-SemiBoldItalic]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldSlanted] [SabonMT-SemiBoldItalic]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [serif] [sabon] [ec,8r,texnansi]
\definefontsynonym[SabonMT] [\typescriptthree-sab]
[encoding=\typescriptthree]
\definefontsynonym[SabonMT-RegularSC]
[\typescriptthree-sabsc][encoding=\typescriptthree]
\definefontsynonym[SabonMT-Italic] [\typescriptthree-sabi]
[encoding=\typescriptthree]
\definefontsynonym[SabonMT-SemiBold] [\typescriptthree-sabs]
[encoding=\typescriptthree]
\definefontsynonym[SabonMT-SemiBoldItalic][\typescriptthree-sabsi][encoding=\typescriptthree]
\stoptypescript
After that
\usetypescriptfile[typeface.tex]
\definetypeface[sabon][rm][serif][sabon][default]
\setupbodyfont[sabon] \input tufte \end
I got some text in the right font. This process is described in the wiki and
bill's site as well

I have installed Texlive8 (Not sure wether it is the latest one. I have used
TeXSetup.exe).
Am using rsync as you mentioned, but seems like it does not work, this is
what i get:
C:\>rsync2.5.1-dev -r -v www.pragma-pod.com::mswin mytex
receiving file list ...
Do i need a user account to do this .. ?
Which version of rsync do you use ?
Many thanks.

Seems so. My TeX runs only since I completely re-installed it with
Gerben's i-Installer.
Regardings project structure please have a look at the wiki:

Thanks for the rsync stuff, i have started looking at it.
I first need to know how things work in their basic way. I don't understand
why my update didn't work as i did everything the way i was asked.
And now, Pdftex doesn't find my fonts anymore :)
It is turning to a nightmare.
Is all of this because of the new way Texlive works now ?

an option is (assuming that you have rsync running):
c:
cd \
mkdir mytex
rsync -r -v www.pragma-pod.com::mswin mytex
cd mytex
setuptex
texexec --make --alone --all
and voila you have a running system (like i have)
(updating is then also rather efficient)
c:\mytex\setuptex c:\mytex
can then be udes any time.
rsync www.pragma-pod.com::
gives a list of other trees that can be downloaded.

Hi Hans,
Looks like am never going to get out of my installation problems without
getting the write way to do it.
Back to Bill's mc clain method, i have done the equivalent of this in XP:
mv cont-tmf.zip /usr/TeX/texmf
cd /usr/TeX/texmf
rm tex/context/base/* # safer to clean out old files first
rm metapost/context/base/* # ...also remove metafun files
rm metapost/context/*.mp # ...and any from an obsolete version
unzip -a -L -o cont-tmf.zip # overwrites existing files
# Edit texexec.ini afterwards?
cp context/config/texexec.rme context/config/texexec.ini
# Edit cont-sys.tex afterwards? Specifically: uncomment the line:
#
# \autoloadmapfilestrue
#
# For Metapost use, make sure these lines are uncommented:
#
# \runMPgraphicstrue
# \runMPTEXgraphicstrue
# \useMETAFUNformattrue
cp tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme tex/context/user/cont-sys.tex
#
# Edit /usr/TeX/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf and ensure that "shell_escape = t".
This
# is what TeX people somewhat obscurely call "write18 enabled".
#
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/TeX/bin/i386-linux # root doesn't have this on my
system
texhash
texexec --make en # en = english
texexec --make --alone metafun
mv metafun.mem /usr/TeX/texmf-var/web2c/metafun.mem
texhash
exit # from "su root"
Now, nothing changed within my context version, still ConTeXt ver:
2003.9.25 fmt: 2004.8.17 int: english mes: english.
When i use a straight file (e.g AllInOneFile.tex) without the project
structure another version of Context is used: ConTeXt ver: 2004.11.06 fmt:
2004.11.15 int: english mes: english
Things stay the same wether i use the --pdf option or not.
Many thanks :)
Dirar.
