Updating GW distribution: msg#00549

tex.macosx

Subject: Updating GW distribution

I've not updated my teTeX distribution via GW's installer (v.2 circa 2002) in sometime and wish to do so now.

Would that it were possible to update packages and documentation that have changed or been added rather than reinstalling the entire multi-megabyte distribution. I suspect this is not possible and if anyone wants to confirm this (or pleasantly surprise me otherwise) I'd be grateful.

Can someone remind me of the special care one needs to take on a re-install (actually, an update) as opposed to first install or point me to an appropriate doc with this information? I could not find this point discussed at http://www.rna.nl/tex.html. I mainly wonder whether the directory structure will be automatically updated or an entire new structure installed in addition in ~/Library/

Many thanks,

David Oliver
