The point is: while the *first mode is clear and can be managed inside context, the concept of last run is problematic. If one wants to be sure that "this tex code will be parsed only at the last run" then the tex code must be enclose inside a \startmode[LAST]\stopmode and processed with #>context mydoc.tex && context --mode=LAST mydoc.tex (let's forget of errors for the moment) But if the tex code modify mydoc then the first context mydoc is superfluous. So in the end the tex code must do nothing of relevant, and hence it can be replaced by an external program MyAnalyze which in general must have as input the input source mydoc.tex, the output file mydoc.pdf and the log mydoc.log and processed with #>context --batch mydocument.tex ; MyAnalyze mydoc.tex mydoc.pdf mydoc.log to take care of errors. -- luigi
