first-setup.sh or first-setup.bat is the script used to install and update ConTeXt. You can keep separate ConTeXt installations under separate directories; this is useful if you want a stable version for your important projects, and like to use the latest features in your small projects, for example. The script is a wrapper around mtxrun with mtx-update.lua as a helper script, both in the bin directory directly under the installation root.
To obtain the first-setup.sh script:
cd /opt/context rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh ./ # optional: make it executable. # chmod +x first-setup.sh
The script self-updates when you run it, so you don't need to worry about that.
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 # a specific *stable* 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
