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! - Markus -------8<-------schnipp-- # Create the application folder mkdir /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/ # Download & Install the 'ConTeXt Minimals' distro cd /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/ curl -o first-setup.sh http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/first-setup.sh sh ./first-setup.sh # Fix some path values inside setuptex cd /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex cp setuptex setuptex.orig sed -e 's#^export HOMETEXMF .*$#export HOMETEXMF = ~/texmf#g' \ -e 's#^export TEXMF .*$#export TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFPROJECT,!!$TEXMFFONTS,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}#g' \ setuptex.orig > setuptex # Fix some path values inside texmf.cnf cd /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex mkdir -p texmf-local/web2c cp texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf texmf-local/web2c/texmf.orig cd texmf-local/web2c sed -e 's#^HOMETEXMF .*$#HOMETEXMF = ~/texmf#g' \ -e 's#^TEXMF .*$#TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFPROJECT,!!$TEXMFFONTS,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}#g' \ texmf.orig > texmf.cnf # customize bash settings cd echo "source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex" >> ~/.bash_profile source ~/.bash_profile # do some stuff ... ctxtools --update texexec --make --all --pdftex texexec --make --all --xetex luatools --generate luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-en luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-de luatools lmr12.afm context --generate -------8<-------schnapp-- -- -------------------"it's like this"------ even samurai have teddy bears and even teddy bears get drunk

Hi @all,

I would not install it to /Applications; it doesn't behave like a Mac application, but that's completely up to you.
# Fix some path values inside setuptex cd /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex cp setuptex setuptex.orig sed -e 's#^export HOMETEXMF .*$#export HOMETEXMF = ~/texmf#g' \ -e 's#^export TEXMF .*$#export TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFPROJECT,!!$TEXMFFONTS,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}#g' \ setuptex.orig > setuptex
No time to comment extensively, but you don't need to rename it back to setuptex. Just create "mysetuptex/mytex" and call that one. If you rename it to setuptex, it will get rewritten next time when you update.
# Fix some path values inside texmf.cnf cd /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex mkdir -p texmf-local/web2c cp texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf texmf-local/web2c/texmf.orig cd texmf-local/web2c sed -e 's#^HOMETEXMF .*$#HOMETEXMF = ~/texmf#g' \ -e 's#^TEXMF .*$#TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFPROJECT,!!$TEXMFFONTS,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$TEXMFEXTRA,!!$TEXMFMAIN}#g' \ texmf.orig > texmf.cnf
That's OK. Mojca

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

There is a tool designed specifically for this sort of adjustment to
the environment,
called "environment modules":
http://modules.sourceforge.net/
http://www.nersc.gov/nusers/resources/software/os/modules.html
This was standard kit on SGI Irix -- now that we are replacing the SGI
workstations with
MacOSX at work I use the (experimental) tcl version. The big
advantage of using
environment modules is that it reliably restores the default environment.
