Instalation of minimal
Hi, Are information on this page http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals still valid? After following instructions and successfull (I think) rsync sessions I try: source ~/context/tex/setuptex ~/context/tex and I'm told ~/context/tex is not a valid TeX directory. I also tried downloading a 'linux.zip' from http://minimals.contextgarden.net/pragma and it says the same. It also complains about a missing 'plain.tex'. What is the easier way to install MK IV? I usually use ConTeXt that comes with Ubuntu, I just need MK IV in one session where I need to type unicode characters by their number. (A previous message from Hans says \char"2019 would word for sure in MK IV.) Thanks, Maurício

What is the easier way to install MK IV? I usually use ConTeXt that comes with Ubuntu, I just need MK IV in one session where I need I have Ubuntu too, so you can try this ## open a gnome-terminal ## and become root cd /opt mkdir luatex cd luatex mkdir minimals cd minimals rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . ## in first-setup.sh .change this line ## mtxrun --verbose --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --update --make --force --engine=all --context=beta --texroot=$PWD/tex $@ ## into this ## imtxrun --verbose --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --update --make --force --engine=all --texroot=$PWD/tex $@ ./first-setup cd tex ## watch for the initial dot '.' !!!!! . setuptex # Some checks # ## must contains /opt/luatex/minimals/tex/texmf-linux/bin ## as first path echo $PATH
luatex -v ## must be something like this ## This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.33.1-2009022019, build unknown ## ## Execute 'luatex --credits' for credits and version details. ## ## There is NO warranty.
