[NTG-context] Caching Metafun images and VIM Syntax highlighted code

[NTG-context] Caching Metafun images and VIM Syntax highlighted code

I am writing two books. One is on Rust programming and another is on
geometry, so I have syntax highlighted code and in second has lost of
diagrams.

Perhaps Aditya Mahajan can tell me how can I cache code snippets. Invoking
VIM will have heavy penalty on highlighting the code otherwise.

Other than that, how can I cache Metafun images so that they are not
recomputed on every processing of file.

Have you tried the vim module:

https://github.com/adityam/filter/blob/dev/vim-README.md

Caching is enabled out of the box, so you don't need to configure anything.

There used to a command for caching metafun images in MkII, but I don't know if that is really needed in LMTX. In most cases, metapost processing does not have a significant processing delay.

if images are the same one can use the reuseMPgraphic or uniqueMPgraphic 
features .. plenty of examples can be found, but as Aditya poined out mp 
is quite fast (but reuse saves on file size)

Dear Hans, Aditya,

Thanks for clarifying. In any case, I will process chapter-by-chapter,
so runtime should be manageable.

You can also try to extend ConTeXt's syntax highlighter (or the scite 
module) to support Rust which solves the cache problem.
