Hans,
My impression from reading installation directions for minimals is that when you open a shell, and if you have your .bash_profile configured, that setuptex will be sourced. That must set some sort of path while the current shell is active? Will that interfere with needing to suddenly latex a file?

Hans, No. I have Mactex texlive 2008 installed and I used the rsync directions on: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV The result is I no longer have a functioning context installation. I will try installing the minimals, but I'd really like to get my Mactex installation correct and the directions on the above page correct.
you should install the minimals alongside (not combined) with mactex; the operate isolated and can be updated independently and used without interference (issue the setuptex script to switch to the minimals tree)
yes, as latex is not in the minimals. however, normally you will then just use a separate shell if you're running from an editor, and using mkiv, you can just run the context script (use the full path to it) and it will operate in the tree that it sits in Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
