Hans, can ctxtools be modified to give the option of downloading both
the stable and latest branch? --updatecontext gives the beta which,
being a beta, has occasional bugs. So this method of updating context
can not be recommended to new users. How about adding
ctxtools --updatecontext --stable to give the stable branch, or
instead make fetching the stable branch default and give --beta to
download the beta. Maybe even extract everything with --beta to
TEXMFBETA folder so that maintaining beta and stable in parallel is
seamless. Right now there is texexec --beta for running the beta, but
then you have to maintain the beta tree manually.
