Dear syndicate, While I have not closely kept up with all developments it seems that installation/upgrade procedures have been improved. I also went through a lot of pain the last time I upgraded so I ask: Given that: 1. I have not updated my context since Aug. of last year; 2. my fpTeX is from last July. What is the wisest and most efficient way to upgrade my ConTeXt distribution today? Should I replace fpTeX (including Aleph) with the ConTeXt/TeX distribution from the website? Are there any Aleph-related issues? Any tips will be appreciated Thanks Idris Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

just download the windows zip file from our website and install that one in a separate tree, e.g. under c:\context then, you can initialize that tree with c:\context\setuptex c:\context and voila ... when needed, unzip the latest cont-tfm (beta) and cont-lmr archives in texmf-local and remake formats Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Where are the cont-lmr archives? I can't find them... Idris -- Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523
