Hi all, Hans, Taco, this is kind of a continuation of the thread about installers etc. I'm currently test-driving TeXLive 2008 and was wondering if we could make it a bit easier for new users to just try out ConTeXt. The binaries reside in <tl2008-directory>/2008/bin/<arch>; the installer gives the choice to put symlinks in system directories. Would it make sense to place some ConTeXt symlinks into the bin directory? For Unixoid systems, I am thinking of these:
mtxrun -> ../../../2008/texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua luatools -> ../../../2008/texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua/luatools.lua and maybe place the stub "context" into this bin directory as well. I don't know how this would work for widnoze. I'm thinking of a potential casual user who has just installed TeXLive and should be able to simply run a "Hello World" document by typing "context myfile." Does that make sense?
