Hello List,
Greetings to all members! This is my first post here...
Relatively new in Context, I've loved it since the first minute!
I write technical manuals with Context.
Some chapters of the manuals are depending on the type of the machine
which are described in the manual.
I try to use \usepath to load the right texfile from different
folders. My variable for searching the correct folder is \machinename.
\machinename is set before compiling
The folders are:
/MakeText/Ang/machineA/techdaten/Ang_techdaten.tex
/MakeText/Ang/machineB/techdaten/Ang_techdaten.tex
...
/MakeText/Ang/machineX/techdaten/Ang_techdaten.tex
Tex example:
\usepath[/MakeText/Ang/\machinename/]
....
\input /techdaten/Ang_techdaten.tex
\input /otherfolder/otherfile.tex
\input...
I can compile and I get a nice PDF, but the inverse search is not
possible. (I use Sumatra and Notepad++)
NPP only looks at the path after \input... /techdaten/Ang_techdaten.tex
Do any of you know a workaround for this?
Is \usepath the suited command?
Thank you in advance!
Gerhard

You can also do this (thatfile.tex):
\starttext
\usepath[/foo/\getdocumentargument{machine}/whatever]
see what we have:
/foo/\getdocumentargument{machine}/whatever
\stoptext
run as:
context thatfile.tex --machine=mymachine
or maybe
context thatfile.tex --path=mymachine
is also sufficient

What do you mean with 'inverse search'?
