Hi

 

I'm a complete ms word user who wants to convert to context to make his mathematical textbooks. I have windows xp on my computer, but nothing (really nothing like perl, editor's or distribution) else. What exactly have i to do make my pc work with context?

By the way, don't say to me to read the how to install context manual which are not meant to read by absolute beginners. I've spent hours on looking around on internet, on the pragma-website, reading manuals, but i don't find something clear and simple what tells me exactly to do and in which order to let me begin working with context. There seems to be so many pre-knowledge about perl, command line commands, and so on..

But can anybody out there please tell me how i can start from the very beginning.

I would appreciate your advise very much.

To set it clear: i'm not a linux or unix-user, i use windowx xp.

I really want to begin with context, but there seems to be so many obstacles to overwin. Many thanks in advance.
