Hi all,

am I right that pandoc uses /tmp to build the intermediate context
source file?

My problem is that I have a hierarchy of supporting files relative to
the directory of the markdown source file which context needs to build
correctly.

While:

pandoc -t context -o test.tex test.md
context test.tex

works fine

pandoc -t context --pdf-engine=context -o test.pdf test.md

throws error as multiple context environments are not found.

There is a work around by putting all supporting files in a special
folder of the context distribution

context/tex/texmf-local

You have to call "context --generate" the make any changes in this path
known to context. This is annoying but possible.

But the path to the original source folder is lost so that it is
impossible to include things stored along with the source file.

projectdir/source.md
projectdir/image.png

When context is called inside the project folder it is of course
possible to include the image file.  When context is called on a tmp
file in /tmp the path is lost.

Is there a switch to build all files in the working directory?
