Question to installation ConTeXt from TeXlive

Question to installation ConTeXt from TeXlive

[Tomas Hala]

Hi all,

when one (eg. student) decides for customizing the Windows installation from TeXlive, 
24 items will appear in the group of packages list. 

Because I have no experience with W. installations, I would like to ask
which of them are relevant or possible to use with ConTeXt MkIV (on W.).
(The aim is not to install unusable stuff.)

Legend:
%=I guess no   +=I guess yes   ?=I am not sure

[translated from the Czech version of the Installer]

+ Additional fonts
+ ConTeXt etc.
+ LuaTeX
+ MetaPost and Metafont
+ Recommended Fonts
+ TeXWorks
+ Auxillary programmes for W.

% Additional for LaTeX
% Art Fields
% Basic LaTeX 
% Basic (La)TeX 
% Publishing styles
% Recommended LaTeX
% Typesetting Games

? Additional formats
? Auxillary programmes for TeX
? Graphics, images, diagrams
? Math, nat. sci., comp. sci. 
? Music
? Necessary programmes and files
? PSTricks
? Additional for BibTeX
? SW for graphics and fonts
? XeTeX etc.

Thanks in advance. 
(After completion I can put it on the wiki.)

Best wishes,

Tomáš

Pick the ConTeXt scheme.

Hans, thanks for the help.

I wikified it, see
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_10_64_bit_Installation_2019_--_how_to_install_from_TeXlive.

Would be anybody so kind and check the English collection names at some time?
(I have got no computer with W.)

Best wishes,

Tomáš
