Hello Mojca, Since you don't use Windows, it may be useless, but here is the proper link: http://rapidshare.com/files/51823950/context-installer-1.0.zip
Thank you for detailed suggestions! All your proposals I can implement (theoretically). :-) > - installer downloads the necessary zips and unpacks them > automatically to the desired location" How can I tell necessary zips from unnecessary? And do you mean cont-tmf and other zips found on the pragma site? -- Best regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky > A few suggestions of how I would imagine such an instaler to work: > - user downloads the exe file (or zipped exe) and runs it > - user chooses the folder where to install the context minimals > - installer downloads the necessary zips and unpacks them > automatically to the desired location > - if the user want to install the minimals permanently (globally), add > the necessary values to register, but remember any values previously > set (by TeXLive or by some other distribution) > - (you might need to install unzip.exe as well) > - the installer should be able to only fetch and unzip the files, or > additionally set the variables in register > Menu entry of "ConTeXt minimals" sould have the following entries: > - enable context minimals globally > - disable context minimals globally > - check for updates/update context (includes remaking formats) > - remake formats > - I have much more in mind, but that's a topic for some other time > People want to run the minimals in parallel with MikTeX or TeXLive. > This means that they would want to "enable the minimal context > distribution temporary", so that when they call texexec, the minimal > tree will be used, but they would like to "disable it again", so that > when they call texexec again, MikTeX will be used again. > Mojca ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : [email protected] / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
