Hans,

real-world needs may be complex, such as in the following sample:

 \starttext
  \completecontent
  \dorecurse{3}
   {\startpart
    \edef\pn{\recurselevel}
    \dorecurse{30}
     {\startchapter\markpage[start-\pn.\recurselevel]
      \dorecurse{\randomnumber{0}{30}}
        {\input knuth\par}
     \markpage[stop-\pn.\recurselevel]\stopchapter}
    \stoppart}
  \stoptext

This generates a document to be split in 90 individual documents. I
cannot even think in specifying them manually.

It would be very useful to have something similar to:

  context --extra=select --selection=pages oeps --once --autopdf

I hope my explanation is clearer now.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
