Hello Wilfried, Recently I switched from Word to Context. I
used the TexLive distribution which is offered at www.fptex.org. You have to download about 455 Mbytes.
Then start the setup and accept the default installation. When all is finished
it gives a right out the box working Text environment, including ConTeXT. Perl and ghostscript work and also the environment variables are all
there. I use the WinEdt
editor. The editor is Jan -----Oorspronkelijk
bericht----- Hi I'm a complete ms word
user who wants to convert to context to make his mathematical textbooks. I have
windows xp on my computer, but nothing (really nothing like perl, editor's or
distribution) else. What exactly have i to do make my pc work with context? By the way, don't say to
me to read the how to install context
manual which are not meant to read by absolute beginners. I've
spent hours on looking around on internet, on the pragma-website, reading
manuals, but i don't find something clear and simple what tells me exactly to
do and in which order to let me begin working with context. There seems to be
so many pre-knowledge about perl, command line commands, and so on.. But can anybody out there
please tell me how i can start from the very beginning. I would appreciate your
advise very much. To set it clear: i'm not
a linux or unix-user, i use windowx xp. I really want to begin
with context, but there seems to be so many obstacles to overwin. Many thanks
in advance. Wilfried Van Hirtum Do you Yahoo!? |
