Hi all,

in my document I have to set a long path to my environment files:

\environment ../../../hs.pub.context/env-fonts

I wonder if I can use the option --path to set hs.pub.context as input
folder to look for environment files.

But I have no idea how to pass a "list" to this option as --help tells, and if it is the
right option to achieve what I want.

TIA
Jan Ulrich Hasecke

Hi all,

to answer the question myself is: yes --path is the right option.

I wrote a build script that calls context inside a deep nested directory
like this:

context --path="${environmentdir}" --result=${project}.pdf ${project}.tex

The variable ${environmentdir} is created by the script. Everything
works fine.

But now I would like to use a second path variable in a style file
instead of this long relative path:

\setupexternalfigures[directory={../../../hs.pub.bilder},local]
 
Any idea how to achieve this?

TIA
