Dear Hans,

I compile ConTeXt documents with --purgeall, but if I save buffers into
files and typeset those files or I typeset buffers directly, these files
aren’t purged after successful compilation.

Would it be possible to enable an option (such as --purgebuffers) that
removes all buffer files generated by that compilation?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

--purgeall deletes all `*-temp-*.tmp` files from a directory. So, one 
option (that I use in the filter module) is to use that structure while 
naming your temporary files.

IIRC, in t-gnuplot, Mojca had used a macro to store the name of all the 
generated buffers and some test code (or maybe just the idea) to store 
them the tuc file so that they get deleted by context/texexec.

\ctxlua{luatex.registertempfile("yourfile.xxx")}

\edef\MyTempFile{\cldcontext{luatex.registertempfile("yourfile",true)}}

registered files will be deleted at the end of a job
