ConTeXt MK IV possibility to run different language options
Hi I've got an wish for an additonal command option in the context command. Up to now there is no possibility to run context in MK IV mode in different languages. Here is a way one could solve this: as far as I see it context invokes the luatools command and for a non-english source-file one could use luatools --run cont-de myfile Now why can't wan edit the context-command with a --lang option in the following way context --lang=xx myfile so that the --lang=xx option has a change-option in luatools so that the --run option is change. context myfile invokes luatools --run cont-en myfile context --lang=xx invokes luatools --run cont-xx myfile, where xx stands for the countrycode. Thanks for your patience Greetings Martin

You could also use 'context --make de'.
Now why can't wan edit the context-command with a --lang option in the following way context --lang=xx myfile so that the --lang=xx option has a change-option in luatools so that the --run option is change. context myfile invokes luatools --run cont-en myfile context --lang=xx invokes luatools --run cont-xx myfile, where xx stands for the countrycode.
