Hi Hans,

can you add a \savebuffer variant which works like the first version of the command where

  \savebuffer[<buffername>][<filename>]

saved the buffer as <filename> and not as \jobname-<filename>.tmp like it currently does.


Instead of a new command a key-val-version of \savebuffer would do the job as well, e.g.

  \savebuffer[list=<buffername>,file=<filename>,prefix=no]

or something similar.

Wolfgang

next beta:

\starttext

\startbuffer[test]
crap
\stopbuffer

\savebuffer[test][whatever]

\savebuffer[list=test,file=something,prefix=no]

\stoptext

Which file extension would this use, “tmp” as the current \savebuffer command or a requested with is applied with the filename (e.g. “file=myfile.tex”) or a extension key (e.g. “extension=tex”).

with prefix=no it uses the given filename (so no suffix if not given)

`prefix=no` doesn't really hint at that. What about `prefix=,suffix=`
(default: `prefix=\jobname,suffix=.tmp`)?

Cheers, and a happy new year to all,
