Hi @all,
i've done a fresh install of ConTeXt Minimals on my Mac OS X box. Now I like to put my setup steps into a small script so my brother can use it. It wold be nice if someone can give me some comments ... maybe I missed something, maybe I did something stupid!

Your script is clever, but in my experience, you can simplify the process. I have a TeXLive install and the ConTeXt minimals on my OS X box. In order to use them, I have two configuration files. Here's the one for the minimals (which is named .minicontext): PATH="/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin:$PATH" export PATH export TEXMFCACHE="/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-cache" export TEXMFCNF="/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf/web2c" export TEXMF="{/Users/tas/texmf,/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-project,/ Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-fonts,/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-local,/ Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-context,/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf- extra,/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf}" export LUAINPUTS="{/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/ context/lua,/Users/tas/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base,/ Users/tas/texmf/scripts/context/lua}" I simply run "source ~/.minicontext", and my system is set up. The syntax is for zsh; if you're running bash or (heaven forbid!) tcsh, you may have to adapt it slightly; and of course, adapt the path variables to your own needs. Best Thomas
