Hello,

So what environment variables can I set globally to avoid the need for running setuptex.bat?

Personally I came to the following set of vars (for luatex): PATH = G:\rsync\windows\texmf-mswin\bin; OSFONTDIR = %WINDIR%\Fonts TEXMF = {g:\rsync\windows\texmf,g:\rsync\windows\texmf-local} TEXMFCACHE = %WINDIR%\Temp TEXMFCNF = G:\rsync\windows\texmf{-local,}/web2c LUAINPUTS = .;$TEXMF/tex/context/base;$TEXMF/scripts/context/lua I use this set at the moment and luatex works (though, I use little features). Best regards, Vyatcheslav
