ah, right, you got no toc because texutil was not found -) good point

This is what the TeXScriptsPath variable can be used for.
I leave it up to you where you put the pl files since this also an OS
issue; on texlive / win32 they go into the bin path, and in linux to
/usr/bin [often as symlink without suffix]. If you add the perltk path to
the PATH variable, updates will be found more conveniently, otherwise you
need to move the files manually.
so, if in miktex they go to bin, all perl script should do;
[btw, under win, i use 4dos / 4nt which supports file name associations]

btw, if you unzip the context archive, they end up in the perltk path

that's what i've added / changed so far

ideally the path should not be set, but it may come in handy for testing
purposes
