If you want You will need write permissions to TEXMFSYSVAR to enable the other context language interfaces. So if you cannotdo the following steps below, point your local administrator to this page and kindly ask him/her to run thecommands below for you should use . Adding extra context interfaces follows the same rules as for any other local format. The process is a little complicated because the normal TeX Live <code>fmtutil.cnf</code> may be overwritten by package updates, and therefore a local changes system:file has to be created.
If 3. Put the commented cont-'XX' lines you do not have write permissions for found in step 1 into the <code>$TEXMFLOCAL/fmtutil-local.cnf</code>file. If you want xetex formats as well, ask your local TeX Live system administrator to complete make a copy of each line replacing <code>pdftex</code> with <code>xetex</code>. Then uncomment these stepslines, save the file, and exit the editor.
3. Paste the commmented cont-'XX' you found in step one into that file, uncomment them, create a xetex copy if you want xetex formats as well, and then save the file. After this, the (new section of) <code>$TEXMFLOCAL/web2c/fmtutil-local.cnf</code> (or the new section of it, if it preexisted) should look like this :
56. Now to generate the newly enabled ConTeXt MkII formats, run # fmtutil-sys --allfrom now you can call a normal on, the extra formats will be auto-renewed whenever context updates are installed via <code>fmtutiltlmgr</code> command line like $ fmtutil --allto generate the newly enabled ConTeXt MkII formats.
<code> $ luatools --generate</code>
manuallyto refresh the MkIV file cache.
{{todo|[[Category:Installation]] [http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ TLContrib] is a website + repository that hosts contributed packages for TeX Live 2010. The packages on TLContrib are not distributed or updated inside TeX Live proper for one or another of following reasons: * not free software according to the strict Debian guidelines* not available on CTAN* it is a binary (executable) update* it is an intermediate release for testing In short, anything TeX-related that can not be on TeX Live but can still legally be distributed over the Internet can have its place on TLContrib. The ultimate goal is to provide a companion to the core TeX Live tlnet distribution in much the same way as Debian's non-free tree is a companion to their normal, 100% free software distribution. The goal is not to replace TeX Live: package and updates that can be part of TeX Live itself should stay (or be added) there. TLContrib is simply trying to fill this in once TeXLive a gap in the current distribution system. Quick start: to use TLContrib as a TeX Live repository, point the TeX Live package manager to http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/2010/ tlmgr --repository http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/2010 is actually released/ For more detailed information, visit the website [http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ TLContrib] {{Installation navbox}}

== Introduction ==
The ConTeXt in TeX Live 2010 is [[Context 2010.05.24 | 2010.05.24]] with a few small changes. ConTeXt MkII works out the box, MkIV takes a tiny bit of configurationrequires that the luatex file cache be regenerated after installation before it can be used (see below).
The ''scheme-context'' installs ''collection-context'' and ''collection-metapost''. This brings in quite a few font families, but we did not want to automatically install all font packages, so you may need to install a few by hand with <tt>tlmgr</tt>.
The English interface for both pdftex and xetex is automatically managed by <tt>fmtutil</tt>.
Just run
$ texexec <myfile>
to compile documents using pdfTeX, or
$ texexec --engine=xetex <myfile>
for XeTeX.
=== Enabling other MkII interfaces ===
1. Look for the commented cont-''XX'' lines in <code>fmtutil.cnf</code>. Use
$ kpsewhich fmtutil.cnf
to find its exact location. You only need the commented lines, there is no need to copy anything else.
2. Create or edit the file <code>$TEXMFLOCAL/web2c/fmtutil-local.cnf</code>. <code>$TEXMFLOCAL</code> is something like <code>/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local</code>, you can use
$ kpsewhich --expand-var '$TEXMFLOCAL'
to find the exact location.
cont-de pdftex cont-usr.tex -8bit *cont-de.ini
cont-de xetex cont-usr.tex -8bit *cont-de.ini
cont-ro xetex cont-usr.tex -8bit *cont-ro.ini
4. If you created a new file, now run $ # mktexlsrto make sure the file will be found by the TeX Live system. 5. Now run # tlmgr generate fmtutilThis merges the info from the TeX Live distribution with the <code>fmtutil-local.cnf</code>.
== Running MkIV ==
Directly after installation and , but also after context-related updates to TeX Live, you will need to run
The ''command $ context'' command <myfile>will automatically generate and update the formats and the fonts cache when needed.

== ConTeXt 2010.05.24 changes ==
* Because the copyright of the ''koeielogos'' and ''koeieletters'' fonts does not allow modifications, the relevant files are not included (this was also the case in previous years). However, see [[http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ | TLContrib]] below.
* The files from [[cont-mpd.zip]] are in the package ''mptopdf''. The ''context'' package depends on ''mptopdf'', so installation is automatic.
* Mojca and Taco applied a few hot-fixes for some quite serious bugs:
** Context MkIV did not deal with fonts with upper case filename extensions properly.
** The typescripts ''xits'' and ''stix'' have been added to <tt>type-otf.mkiv</tt>
** Fix Iwona typescripts (Kurier SmallCaps definitions are missing) due to filename changes in new release of these fonts (<code>type-one.mkii</code>).
** Fix Antykwa Półtawskiego typescripts to account for the changes in the first official release in September 2010
** Context MkIV did not handle directory names containing dots properly.
** A patch to fix 'Wrong Pi and Gamma with XITS' and \mathgreekitalic, cf. [http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20100714.203000.66c2af69.en.html]
