Hello,

is there a way to let ConTeXt to flush the input stream in parallel into an output buffer, like:

----
\starttext

A

\startoutput{Test.mkiv}
Hello!
\startitemize
\item Item
\stopitemize
\stopoutput

B

\stoptext
----

which would produce:

---- Test.mkiv
Hello!
\startitemize
\item Item
\stopitemize
----

You can use a buffer to store content and save it in a external file.

\unexpanded\def\startcontentexport
{\dosingleempty\dostartcontentexport}

\def\dostartcontentexport[#1]%
{\iffirstargument
     \edef\contentexportfile{#1}%
   \else
    \let\contentexportfile\empty
   \fi
   \grabbufferdata[contentexport][startcontentexport][stopcontentexport]}

\def\stopcontentexport
{\doifsomething{\contentexportfile}{\savebuffer[list=contentexport,prefix=no,file=\contentexportfile]}%
   \getbufferdata[contentexport]}

\starttext

A

\startcontentexport[Test.mkiv]
Hello!
\startitemize
    \item Item
\stopitemize
\stopcontentexport

B

\stoptext
