Is it possible to run a ruby script from a context document during its processing (I already know how to do that using \write18 but there is maybe a better way...) then get the output of the script to display or use it into the document. It's a little bit hard to describe so I have a simple example:

\starttext
\def\vartest{3.124325234543523452435}
\write18{ruby ./myscript.rb \vartest XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX}
\stoptext

with myscript.rb:

temp = ARGV[0]
puts "\nXXXXXXXXXXXXX " + (Math::sqrt(temp.to_f)).to_s + " XXXXXXXXXXXXX\n"

I would store the result of puts into a variable usable within ConTeXt...
