= Installation =
== Prerequisites ==
You need to have two packages preinstalled:
* rsync
* ruby (at least 1.8)
== First Installation ==
'''Please note that the location or name of that simple installation script may change!''' ''(It's a really stupid one, one could also call it a prototype.)''
The needed files are under:
* http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/
Well, to be honest, all you need to run it on linux/mac is this script (the rest of files will be downloaded autematically):
* http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/linux/first-setup.sh (<code>rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/linux/first-setup.sh .</code>)
Take a look at it, modify it if needed and run it. On Windows you can either take that command-line version from the zip or
* [http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/context-installer/ContextMinimalInstall.exe Vyatcheslav's Windows Installer] with a GUI
It will download about 200 MB.
== Running ==
Just like for the old minimals, you have to add a command like
source /opt/context/tex/setuptex /opt/context/tex
to your system startup
== Updating ==
For now, the main recipe to update is to run <code>first-setup</code> again. A command similar to <code>ctxtools --updatecontext</code> might be provided in the future.
→Installation: section removed (everything it contains has already been described above)
Other platforms can be added on request provided that you are willing to keep sending us updates with recent versions of binaries. Please write to the ntg-context mailing list.
