[NTG-context] Re: creating a printed book

["David Roderick" <angel.of.north@gmail.com>]

I have 22 image_000?? directories and file names start as image1, image2 in each one, so even if this path permitted globbing, or regexps, the filenames would clobber each other.  should image1 be in image_0006 or image_00019 directory, for example?

Incidentally the definition is:
\setupexternalfigures [...,...] [..,..=..,..]
1 NAME                           OPT
2 inherits: \setupexternalfigure 

Does this mean \setupexternalfigure (single) inherits from \setupexternalfigures (plural)?  Yes or no?  To say \setupexternalfigures (plural) inherits \setupfigure (single) means that the child (\setupexternalfigures --plural) inherits from the parent (\setupexternalfigure -- singular).  Is this a grammatical mistake?  e.g. if I inherit 10^6 Euros from my father than I as the benefactor inherit what the deceased has bequeathed to me.  Here, my father would here be the plural and I the singular: I would "inherit from" my father, and I would inherit 10^ Euros.  The way this stands as it is written means that my father inherits me: which is that I am inherited by my father.  Should the definition actually be (?):
\setupexternalfigures [...,...] [..,..=..,..]
1 NAME                           OPT
2 inherited by: \setupexternalfigure
