Hello, > So what environment variables can I set globally to avoid the need for > running setuptex.bat? Personally I came to the following set of vars (for luatex): PATH = G:\rsync\windows\texmf-mswin\bin; OSFONTDIR = %WINDIR%\Fonts TEXMF = {g:\rsync\windows\texmf,g:\rsync\windows\texmf-local}

Hello, Let me ask a few questions: 1) When "big things" will be regenerated? I'm still waiting for mswincontext with updated binaries. 2) What is the difference between mswincontext and mswintex packages? 3) If someone made mswincontext to work with latest updates, can he or she post how?
