Halt ConTeXt on Certain Warnings/Errors

Halt ConTeXt on Certain Warnings/Errors

[Malte Stien]

Hi all,

Is there are way I can have ConTeXt halt on particular warnings or errors? In particular, I like it to spit the dummy when it finds an unknown reference. Otherwise, I end up with the unknown references in the document that I sometimes don't find until much later.

At the moment I grep for "reference" when I run context, as in

  context *.tex | grep reference

...but I thought there might be some more elegant way to do this.

Thank you,
Malte.

That's not built in. Keep in mind that often multiple passes are used to 
resolve references so it would be rather fuzzy too.
