Hi Gavin,
good enough just to use scp, unison, rsync etc into progra~1/ or will the
I suspect this would be ok. It's definitely ok on Unix. Maybe some of
the Windows folks here can say more.
I think some environment variables have to be set in autoexec.bat (or
whatever) -- PATH and TEXMFTEMP, at least. I don't think any registry
entries are needed?
Is there a document somewhere detailing the best way to do this?
Not that I've seen (I'd love to have one). The TL install doc talks
somewhat about a central installation on Unix. I can't write anything
about Windows mechanisms, though, lacking first-hand experience ...
It's not about distribution, but I'll mention that Fabrice did write
something about installing the TL'04 binaries on Windows:

Cheers,
