{{code|first-setup.sh}} or {{code|first-setup.bat}} is the script used to install and update ConTeXt. You can keep separate ConTeXt installations under separate directories, which is useful when, for example, you want to run both a stable and a. The script is a wrapper around {{code|mtxrun}} with {{code|mtx-update.lua}} as a helper script, both in the {{code|bin}} directory directly under the installation root.
To obtain the {{code|first-setup.sh}} script and/or update it:
cd /opt/context
rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh ./
# optional: make it executable.
# chmod +x first-setup.sh
To install or update ConTeXt:
sh ./first-setup.sh # defaults to --context=beta
sh ./first-setup.sh --context=beta # latest beta
sh ./first-setup.sh --context=current # current stable version
sh ./first-setup.sh --context=date # date-specific version
To install only [[Mark IV]]:
sh ./first-setup.sh --engine=luatex
To install a module, multiple modules, or all modules:
sh ./first-setup.sh --modules="t-letter"
sh ./first-setup.sh --modules="t-letter,t-mathsets"
sh ./first-setup.sh --modules=all
To update ConTeXt, retaining currently-installed modules:
sh ./first-setup.sh --keep
